Clinical Pearls in Gastroenterology

Eating an early breakfast and dinner when taking PPIs can lower FSSG scores and improve GERD symptoms. (Factors leading to increased FSSG scores: female gender, inadequate sleep, lack of breakfast, antihypertensive agent non-users and dinner just before bedtime.)
33% of patients with suspected GERD are resistant or partially respond to PPIs
Infliximab is the only TNF inhibitor approved by the FDA for ulcerative colitis.

Highlights in Gastroenterology

What is the best strategy for CRC screening?

As published in the NEJM, researchers in the COLONPREV study (Spain) have reported that fecal immunochemical testing (FIT) is as effective as colonoscopy in the detection of colorectal cancer (CRC). The study population was 50-69 years of age and comprised of 26,703 subjects who underwent a one-time colonoscopy and 26,599 subjects who underwent FIT every 2 years. The primary outcome measure was CRC deaths at 10 years. Participation in screening was greater in the FIT group than the colonoscopy group (34.2% vs. 24.6%). Detection of CRC was similar between the two groups (0.1%). Advanced and non-advanced adenomas were detected more frequently in the colonoscopy group than the FIT group (1.9% vs. 0.9% [OR=2.3] and 4.2% vs. 0.4% [OR=9.8], respectively).
