Summary

This study looks at how anxiety, depression, and stress might cause advanced IBD treatments to stop working. Researchers will ask 450 people with IBD to fill out questionnaires about their mental health while they receive regular infusions. The goal is to understand if mental health problems make treatments less effective over time.
