Villus height to crypt depth ratio (Vh:Cd) and intraepithelial lymphocytes (IEL) are key measures of histology of the small intestine in celiac disease (CeD). While the field of CeD has advanced, there remains no broadly accepted measure of mucosal injury. We assessed whether a composite Vh:Cd and IEL scale (named VCIEL) can improve accuracy and statistical precision for assessing histology, compared to individual measures.

Patients with ulcerative colitis (UC) may experience nonresponse to biologics, possibly due to low drug exposure. This trial assessed the efficacy of dose optimization in patients with UC who have early nonresponse to vedolizumab and high drug clearance.
