@DebbieShawcros1 @ebtapper @AmerGastroAssn @MarkThursz @EwanForrest1 Steroid-fan here. STOPAH was a monster landmark trial, but still had issues: no biopsy, terminated early. This individual data meta-analy incl STOPAH of 11 trials showed 28d benefit Probably best used in younger, hepatomegaly, non-F4, non-ACLF>2.

We’re incredibly excited to welcome our newest class of GI fellows! Welcome to the Sinai GI family! @MountSinaiGI @MSHS_IBDCenter @CACTESinai @DOMSinaiNYC
