First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study looks at 200 adults with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) who are hospitalized due to worsening symptoms. Researchers want to see if testing blood or stool for CMV (a common virus) is as accurate as the standard method of testing a tissue sample from the colon. The goal is to find a simpler, less invasive way to diagnose CMV-related organ disease in IBD patients.
