That is beginning to change. “Today we can perform a true surgery on DNA, modifying the alteration at the core of the problem,” said Ernesto Goulart, PhD, professor in the Department of Genetics and Evolutionary Biology at the Institute of Biosciences of the University of São Paulo (IB-USP) in São Paulo, Brazil.

Achieving mucosal healing and normal fecal calprotectin levels does not guarantee full recovery of quality of life in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). In clinical practice, patients may have well-controlled endoscopic findings and laboratory markers but continue to experience chronic fatigue, abdominal pain, anxiety, and severe sleep disturbances. A conceptual framework published in eClinicalMedicine proposed applying the treatable traits model to IBD to address this gap.
