@KerbageAnthony presenting data showing no difference in colonoscopic depth of insertion between male & female endoscopists although female endoscopists did more procedures on females- ?gender based differences in technique to account for variation in patient factors. #ACG2025

Great chatting with @GastroEndoNews about CRC surveillance in older adults with Lynch syndrome, and why continued screening still matters after 65. Looking forward to sharing further data on those over 75 at @AmCollegeGastro in Phoenix! Read more ⬇️

Couldn’t be prouder!!! ❤️❤️❤️ @CCF_IMCHIEFS

Our group was the first to define POSED (Post-Obesity Surgery Esophageal Dysfunction), a newly recognized motility disorder that can develop in a subset of patients after metabolic bariatric surgery. In our latest @NGMJournal Neurogastroenterology & Motility study, we uncover a

Happy to share our study on the quality of 📷photodocumentation of large colorectal polyps! Despite guideline recommendations, high-quality photodocumentation is often lacking, with fewer than 60% of cases meeting quality criteria. 📖 Full article: https://t.co/Sm3KtnIz58

Incredibly proud of @SouaidTarek for the release of his first book! How Doctors Grow isn’t just for doctors, it’s for anyone who believes in learning through human connection. Thoughtful, honest, and deeply moving. Highly recommend grabbing a copy ⬇️:

Had a great time speaking with @HCPLiveNews about our study on language-based disparities in CRC screening. We found that non-English primary language was linked to increased risk of early repeat colonoscopy, highlighting the need for more equitable, language-accessible care.

🚨 Just out in @CirculationEP: Our U.S. national study shows rising stroke mortality in AFib/Flutter. Women with AFib are more likely to die from stroke than men. Eye-opening findings. Grateful to @omwazni, our team, @CleClinicHVTI & @CCF_IMCHIEFS.

Key Takeaways: 🧪 A personalized IgG-guided elimination diet led to greater symptom relief in IBS 🙌 Especially promising in IBS-C & IBS-M 🔄 Study was sham-controlled & double-blinded 🚀 This could be a major step toward precision nutrition for IBS #GITwitter #IBS

💡Why This Matters Low-FODMAP works for many, but it’s restrictive, hard to follow, and non-personalized ⭐️This IgG-guided diet: - Uses a test specifically designed for IBS - Offers a simpler, precision-based alternative - Could fill a gap in care, especially for IBS-C & IBS-M

Pain improved in: ✅ 59.6% of IgG-diet patients ❌ 42.1% of sham-diet patients Statistically significant (P = 0.02) Biggest benefits were seen in IBS-C & IBS-M subtypes

🧑‍🧑‍🧒‍🧒 238 adults with IBS (per Rome IV criteria) 📋 Randomized to: IgG-guided diet vs. Sham diet (eliminated foods not based on IgG) ⏱️ 8-week intervention 🔎Double-blind, multicenter, sham-controlled 🎯 Primary outcome = ≥30% drop in abdominal pain (FDA standard)
