Impact of SARS-CoV-2 Vaccination on Inflammatory Bowel Disease Activity and Development of Vaccine-Related Adverse Events: Results From PREVENT-COVID
Anti-SARS-CoV-2 Vaccination and Antibody Response in Patients With Inflammatory Bowel Disease on Immune-modifying Therapy: Prospective Single-Tertiary Study
This prospective single-center study on 602 inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients and 168 healthy controls shows that vaccination against COVID-19 is effective and safe in patients with IBD. It warrants particular attention to the anti-SARS-CoV-2 vaccination of IBD patients treated with TNF-α inhibitors with immunomodulators, shows priority of mRNA vaccines in this specific group of patients, and confirms that IBD patients can continue their high-efficacy immune-modifying therapy, including biological treatment, even during the anti-SARS-CoV-2 vaccination.

Health Confidence Is Associated With Disease Outcomes and Health Care Utilization in Inflammatory Bowel Disease: A Nationwide Cross-sectional Study
Low health confidence is highly correlated with more health care utilization (ambulatory and acute hospital-based care), worse disease activity, more opioid and glucocorticoid use, and poorer well-being in a large, nationwide sample of adults with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) in diverse settings.
