Obesity is transforming the landscape of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), shaping disease activity, treatment response, and long-term prognosis. As evidence reveals the impact of excess weight on biologic and JAK inhibitor effectiveness, emerging anti-obesity therapies, including GLP-1 receptor agonists, are creating new opportunities to improve patient outcomes. To stay ahead of this rapidly evolving field, gastroenterologists and multidisciplinary care teams need timely, evidence-based education to confidently integrate obesity management into personalized, stigma-free IBD care.
This fast-paced and highly interactive livestream CaseWise™ symposium from CME Outfitters will bring real-world clinical decision-making to life. Through dynamic patient cases, learners will compare their treatment choices to those of leading experts, peers in the room, providers in the community, patients themselves, and even AI-based insights. Learners will see how the immunometabolic impact of visceral and mesenteric adiposity on disease activity, treatment response, and surgical risk translates into practice, what doesn’t translate, and why. Designed to challenge assumptions and sharpen strategy, this immersive format empowers clinicians to immediately apply validated adiposity assessment methods, confidently integrate GLP-1 RAs into individualized treatment planning, and deliver patient-centered IBD care.
