Abstract	Background: Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) has a major economic impact on healthcare costs. Objectives: The aim of this study was to evaluate the current healthcare expenditure associated with IBD in a population-wide study in Catalonia. Design: Retrospective observational study. Methods: All patients with IBD included in the Catalan Health Surveillance System (CHSS) were considered eligible. The CHSS compiles data on more than 7 million individuals in 2020 (34,823 with IBD). Data on the use of healthcare resources and its economic impact were extracted applying the International Classification of Diseases, 10th revision, Clinical Modification codes (ICD-10-CM codes). Health expenditure, comorbidities, and hospitalization were calculated according to the standard costs of each service provided by the Department of Health of the Catalan government. The data on the IBD population were compared with non-IBD population adjusted for age, sex, and income level. IBD costs were recorded separately for Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC). Results: Prevalence of comorbidities was higher in patients with IBD than in those without. The risk of hospitalization was twice as high in the IBD population. The overall healthcare expenditure on IBD patients amounted to 164M€. The pharmacy cost represents the 60%. The average annual per capita expenditure on IBD patients was more than 3.4-fold higher (IBD 4200€, non-IBD 1200€). Average costs of UC were 3400€ and 5700€ for CD. Conclusion: The risk of comorbidities was twice as high in patients with IBD and their use of healthcare resources was also higher than that of their non-IBD counterparts. Per capita healthcare expenditure was approximately 3.4 times higher in the population with IBD. Trial registration: The study was not previously registered.

Abstract	Background and objectives: Thiopurines are an effective treatment for the maintenance of remission in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). They can present adverse effects (AEs), with myelotoxicity being the most relevant. This study aims to determine the incidence of AEs related to the starting of thiopurines in our centre. Methodology: Retrospective study. The AEs in patients that were started on thiopurines between January 2016 and June 2020 were registered, with a two-year follow-up. The mean and standard deviation were used to describe the quantitative variables, and percentages and confidence intervals were used for the qualitative variables. The statistical significance was set at a Results: 98 patients were included, with 64 AEs detected in 48 patients (49%). Most of the AEs appeared in the first 6 months. The most relevant were: 21 neutropenia (21.4%), 19 hypertransaminasemia (19.4%), 13 digestive intolerances (13.2%), 6 acute pancreatitis (6.12%), 3 phototoxicity (3%), and 2 unknown origin fevers (2%). In 29 patients (29.4%) the treatment had to be suspended due to AEs. In 11 cases (11.2%), azathioprine (AZA) was switched to 6-mercaptopurine (6 MP) as 5 showed tolerance and 6 patients needed suspension due to AEs. Eight patients required hospital admission, but none of them needed intensive care unit admission. There were no fatal adverse effects. Conclusions: Thiopurines are a safe drug with few AEs, especially after the first months of treatment. These results suggest that periodic analytic follow-up may not be necessary after the initial period of treatment.

Title translation	Treatment of hepatitis C before and after liver transplantation.
Abstract	Hepatitis C recurrence after liver transplantation is universal and increases morbidity and mortality in these patients. The development of new direct antiviral agents against the hepatitis C virus is a major treatment advance. Pre-transplant treatment avoids graft infection and sometimes improves liver function, allowing the patient to be withdrawn from the transplant waiting list. Delaying treatment until the postpostransplant period may be advisable in patients with advanced cirrhosis. Generally, antiviral therapy after liver transplantation is provided in patients with histological evidence of the disease. In these patients, treatment is more effective in the initial stages of the disease. The choice of antiviral therapy in these patients is based on the degree of liver function, the presence of renal failure, and potential drug-drug interactions.

Abstract	Background: Heterogeneity in the treatment of a disease is a marker of suboptimal quality of care. The aim of this study is to evaluate the heterogeneity in the treatment used and the outcomes for Crohn's disease (CD) in Catalonia. Methods: All patients with CD included in the Catalan Health Surveillance System (data on more than seven million individuals from 2011 to 2017) were identified. The different Catalonian health areas were grouped into 19 district groups (DG). Treatments used rates (systemic corticosteroids, non-biological and biological immunosuppressant) and outcomes rates (hospitalization and surgery) were calculated. Results: The use of systemic corticosteroids presented a decreasing trend over the study period, with an average rate of use in the different territories between 11% and 17%. The use of non-biological immunosuppressant treatment has remained stable, with an average rate of use ranging from 22% to 40% per year depending on the DG. The use of biological immunosuppressant treatment increased with an average rate of use in the different territories ranging from 10 to 23%.Hospitalizations for any reason showed an increasing trend between 2011 and 2017 with an average rate of between 23% and 32% per year depending on the area. Hospitalizations for CD presented a decreasing trend, with an average rate of between 5% and 11% per year. Surgical treatment remained stable over time, rates per year were between 0.5% and 2%. Conclusion: A remarkable geographical heterogeneity in the use of different treatments and in outcomes of CD was observed between different geographical areas of Catalonia. KEY MESSAGEThere is a notable geographical heterogeneity in the administration of biological and immunosuppressive treatments to Crohn's disease patients in Catalonia.There is also a geographical heterogeneity in their rates of hospitalization and surgical intervention.

Abstract	Background: There is a strong relationship between hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection and the kidney. Approximately 10-16% of the patients with HCV infection develop renal disease, and the prevalence of HCV infection in patients with renal dysfunction is higher than that of the general population (9.5 vs. 1.6%). Moreover, HCV-positive patients on hemodialysis (HD) have higher mortality rates as compared to HCV-negative patients also on HD, not only due to liver-related complications but also owing to cardiovascular disease. Key Messages: In the interferon era, the treatment of HCV infection in patients on HD was hampered due to a significant number of treatment-related adverse events (predominately anemia and infectious complications). The development of direct-acting antivirals (DAAs) has revolutionized the field allowing viral eradication in these very sick patients. Two recently published clinical trials assessed the efficacy and safety of DAAs in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD). The combination of grazoprevir and elbasvir has been studied in the C-SURFER trial with 94% of the patients achieving sustained virological response (SVR). Adverse events were mild and only a small number of patients discontinued therapy early due to adverse events. The 3D regimen was evaluated in the RUBY-I trial. Here, a 90% SVR rate was achieved in 20 patients with ESRD, most of them on HD. Although sofosbuvir is eliminated by the kidney and its use in patients with glomerular filtration rate <30 mL/min is not recommended, real-life data have shown good results for this drug in terms of efficacy and safety. Conclusions: The use of DAAs has safely permitted the treatment of patients with renal dysfunction with excellent efficacy results.

Abstract	Background and aims: Data from clinical trials suggest that biological drugs may improve the outcomes in Crohn's disease (CD) by reducing the need for surgery or hospitalization. The aim of this study is to evaluate the time-trends of the use of biological drugs and other treatments for CD, and its relationship with outcomes in Catalonia. Materials and methods: All patients with CD included in the Catalan Health Surveillance System (containing data on a population of more than 7.5 million) from 2011 to 2017 were identified. The exposures to different treatments for inflammatory bowel disease were retrieved from electronic invoicing records. Results: Between 2011 and 2017, the use of salicylates, corticosteroids and immunosuppressive treatment fell from 28.8% to 17.1%, 15.8% to 13.7%, and 32.9% to 29.6%, respectively ( Conclusions: Biological drug use rose from 15.0% to 18.7% between 2011 and 2017. During this period, we observed an improvement in the outcomes of CD patients.

Abstract	Background and aims: Recent studies have found an increase in the seroprevalence of hepatitis E virus (HEV) infection in patients with autoimmune hepatitis (AIH). We aimed to assess the prevalence of positive anti-HEV IgM and IgG, and HEV-RNA in a cohort of patients with AIH, to determine the impact of positive HEV serology on patient outcome, and to evaluate the role of hypergammaglobulinemia and positive autoantibodies in the presence of positive anti-HEV serology. Methods: One hundred and five patients tested for HEV infection between 2014 and 2018 were included in the study: 50 with chronic AIH (more than 1 year on treatment), and 55 with an acute hepatitis (30 patients with acute AIH and 25 with non-AIH). Results: Seroprevalence of HEV was higher in patients with acute AIH (17% vs 10% in patients with chronic AIH and 8% in patients with non-AIH). Patients with acute AIH and positive anti-HEV IgG were older (58 vs 40; P = .006), had higher IgG levels (27 g/dL vs 13 g/dL; P = .03) and antismooth muscle antibodies (ASMA) titres (1:160 vs 1:80; P = .045), and were more likely to have another autoimmune disease (60% vs 16%; P = .03). At the time of HEV testing, anti-HEV IgG positive patients had significantly higher serum IgG levels (17 g/L vs 11 g/L; P = .009), ANA (1:160 vs 1:60; P = .026) and ASMA titres (1:80 vs 1:40; P = .021). Conclusion: Seroprevalence of HEV in patients with AIH in Catalonia does not differ from that of the general population. The higher HEV seroprevalence in patients with acute AIH with higher levels of gammaglobulins and high antibody titres suggest the presence of cross-reactivity between HEV and liver antigens.

Abstract	The value of noninvasive tools in the diagnosis of autoimmune hepatitis (AIH)-related cirrhosis and the prediction of clinical outcomes is largely unknown. We sought to evaluate (1) the utility of liver stiffness measurement (LSM) in the diagnosis of cirrhosis and (2) the performance of the Sixth Baveno Consensus on Portal Hypertension (Baveno VI), expanded Baveno VI, and the ANTICIPATE models in predicting the absence of varices needing treatment (VNT). A multicenter cohort of 132 patients with AIH-related cirrhosis was retrospectively analyzed. LSM and endoscopies performed at the time of cirrhosis diagnosis were recorded. Most of the patients were female (66%), with a median age of 54 years. Only 33%-49% of patients had a LSM above the cutoff points described for the diagnosis of AIH-related cirrhosis (12.5, 14, and 16 kPa). Patients with portal hypertension (PHT) had significantly higher LSM than those without PHT (15.7 vs. 11.7 kPa; P = 0.001), but 39%-52% of patients with PHT still had LSM below these limits. The time since AIH diagnosis negatively correlated with LSM, with longer time being significantly associated with a lower proportion of patients with LSM above these cutoffs. VNT was present in 12 endoscopies. The use of the Baveno VI, expanded Baveno VI criteria, and the ANTICIPATE model would have saved 46%-63% of endoscopies, but the latter underpredicted the risk of VNT. Conclusions: LSM cutoff points do not have a good discriminative capacity for the diagnosis of AIH-related cirrhosis, especially long-term after treatment initiation. Noninvasive tools are helpful to triage patients for endoscopy.

Abstract	Introduction: Diagnosis of severe hepatitis C recurrence is based on analytical and histological criteria but there is little information about their correlation. Aim: To assess the accuracy of laboratory criteria for the diagnosis of fibrosing cholestatic hepatitis (FCH). Patients and methods: Retrospective analysis of prospectively collected data form HCV positive patients who underwent liver transplantation (LT) between 2000 and 2014 in two European university hospitals. Patients were classified according to laboratory criteria such as FCH, cholestatic hepatitis (CH) and non-cholestatic acute hepatitis (NCAH). Histological characteristics were also evaluated. Results: Seventy patients with acute HCV recurrence within the first year after LT with an available liver biopsy were included in the study. Most patients were male (70%) with a median age of 58 years (50-64) and infected with genotype 1b (71.4%). Median time from LT to diagnosis of recurrence was 2.96 months (2.1-5.3). Thirty-nine patients were classified as FCH, 21 as CH and 10 as NCAH. Marked hepatocyte ballooning and ductular reaction were associated with the presence of FCH with an OR of 4.66 (p=0.047) and 20.58 (p=0.025), respectively. Considering liver biopsy as the gold standard, the sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive values of the analytical criteria were 0.8, 0.5, 0.3 and 0.9, respectively. However, correlation between histological and analytical criteria was poor (k=0.033). Discussion: Analytical criteria may be used to rule out the presence of FCH, but a biopsy is mandatory to confirm the diagnosis. Ductular reaction and hepatocyte ballooning were independent predictors of FCH.
