The 2022 American Gastroenterology Society Annual Meeting and Graduate Student Conference (ACG 2022) was held in Charlotte, North Carolina, on October 21~26, 2022, and this article summarizes
13 highlight studies at ACG 2022.
Upatinib has limited benefit in the treatment of ulcerative colitis and is dose-dependent
Upadacitinib is a Janus-activated kinase (JAK) inhibitor approved in the United States for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis and psoriatic arthritis.
and is being studied for a variety of other diseases
.
The investigators performed a post-hoc analysis of the use of upatinib in patients with ulcerative colitis (UC): participants were randomized to placebo, uvpatinib 15 mg, or upatinib 30 mg for 52 weeks
of follow-up.
The results showed that the 30 mg dose resulted in significant improvement in patients, with clinical remission extended by approximately 1 month
compared to the 15 mg dose.

Using virtual reality to treat dyspepsia A study that observed the efficacy of using virtual reality (VR) in the treatment of functional dyspepsia showed that cognitive behavioral therapy is very effective for a variety of diseases, especially irritable bowel syndrome (
irritable bowel syndrome,IBS)
。
This is a double-blind, randomized, controlled study that showed significant improvements in indigestion symptoms and quality of life outcomes with VR headsets and three different procedures
.
Cognitive behavioral therapy will appear more and more in the diagnosis and treatment of functional diseases, and we can continue to look forward to it

of high-quality index colonoscopy
One study looked at how high-quality index colonoscopies predicted a reduced risk of late outcomes in people without adenomas or serrated polyps at 10 years
.
The researchers surveyed 14,257 patients in the New Hampshire Colonoscopy Registry and found that the absolute risk of late outcome with high-quality testing was 4% — meaning adenoma detection rate was 25 percent or higher — compared with 6.
7 percent
if low-quality testing was performed.

with early-onset colon cancer need genetic counseling, and researchers at Cleveland Clinic have conducted a long study
of early-onset colon cancer.
During this time, they noted that 1 in 5 young-onset colon cancer patients had a pathogenic germline variant (regardless of family history).
However, less than two-thirds of patients at the Cleveland Clinic are referred for genetic counseling and testing, making them aware of the shortcomings of their current work
.
For early-onset colorectal cancer (onset < 50 years of age), guidelines recommend that all patients should be referred for assessment<b20> of pathogenic germline variants.

studies on newly approved eosinophilic esophagitis therapies
Currently, dupilumab is approved in the United States for the treatment of eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE
).
Dupilumab is a fully human monoclonal antibody that blocks the shared receptor components of interleukin-4 (IL-4) and interleukin-13 (IL-13), which are the main drivers of EoE type 2 inflammation
.
Two studies published data on the treatment of EoE at 24 weeks and 52 weeks, showing that dupilumab is administered once weekly and that treatment is effective and continuous
.
Notably, these were proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) who did not respond to treatment, and most also received a variety of other treatments
, including steroids.
Patients usually have more severe disease
.
Whether this new drug will need to be used for mild disease remains to be seen
.
