Uptake of recommended vaccines among IBD patients is suboptimal. Annual vaccination reviews by both family physician and gastroenterologist may improve vaccine uptake. Interventions targeted at improving vaccination uptake in IBD patients are needed.

Although all models predicted the risk of HCC, models that incorporated parameters of liver function or cirrhosis (CU-HCC/GAG-HCC) were most accurate. Low-risk patients likely require reduced HCC surveillance.

Ambulatory IBD patients have similar prevalence of MRSA, ESBL and VRE compared to non-IBD controls. This finding suggests that the increased MRSA and VRE prevalence observed in hospitalized IBD patients is acquired in-hospital rather than in the outpatient setting.
