In an analysis of a large cohort of subjects with IBD, we found a significant association between symptoms of depression or anxiety and clinical recurrence. Patients with IBD should therefore be screened for clinically relevant levels of depression and anxiety and referred to psychologists or psychiatrists for further evaluation and treatment.

Aggressive supportive care combined with specific treatment of the precipitating factor can produce meaningful survival in patients with HLH responsible for multiple organ failures. Survival is highest in patients with HLH related to Castleman's disease or B cell lymphoma.
