Abstract
BACKGROUND The development of diseases with a possible autoimmune pathogenesis is common in adults with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). In early onset IBD, it may differ but the evidence is sparse. We aimed to investigate the risk and time span from IBD diagnosis to outcomes with different associated disorders with possible autoimmune pathogenesis. METHODS A register-based study included all Danish patients with early onset of IBD (≤18 years) between 1980 and 2021 and 50 matched references without IBD for each case. We examined the risk of type 1 and type 2 diabetes, celiac disease, thyroid disease, rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, and spondyloarthritis in Cox regression models. RESULTS In total, 6822 patients with IBD were identified, and 337 728 matched references. The median age at the time of IBD diagnosis or index date for the matched references was 16 years (25-75 percentile: 13-18 years), and the median age at the time of an outcome or at the end of follow-up was 28.1 years (25-75 percentile: 21.5-37.0 years). According to the cumulative incidence plots psoriatic arthritis, and spondyloarthritis was diagnosed approximately 10 years after the IBD onset, and the remaining outcomes later. The adjusted hazard ratio after full follow-up was 4.72 (95% CI, 3.85-5.80) for psoriatic arthritis, 5.21 (95% CI, 4.17-6.50) for spondyloarthritis, 2.77 (95% CI, 1.92-4.00) for celiac disease, 2.15 (95% CI, 1.54-3.01) for rheumatoid arthritis, 1.69 (95% CI, 1.23-2.32) and 1.64 (95% CI, 1.21-2.21) for type 1 and type 2 diabetes, respectively. For thyroid disease, it was 1.16 (95% CI, 0.97-1.40). CONCLUSIONS The risk estimates were significantly increased for all outcomes at the end of follow-up, except for thyroid disease, but according to the cumulative incidence plots, only psoriatic arthritis and spondyloarthritis occurred earlier in the IBD cohort than in the matched references.

Coexisting autoimmune disorders among patients with inflammatory bowel disease at a tertiary center in Saudi Arabia: A cross-sectional study. Saudi J Gastroenterol 2025; 31:41-49. [PMID: 39757766 PMCID: PMC11804963 DOI: 10.4103/sjg.sjg_259_24] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/15/2024] [Revised: 10/17/2024] [Accepted: 11/18/2024] [Indexed: 01/07/2025] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Approximately 25% of individuals with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) concurrently experience immune-mediated inflammatory diseases (IMIDs), while the overall prevalence of these conditions in the general population is 5-7%. Individuals with IBD and concurrent IMIDs tend to have a more aggressive disease profile. We aimed to assess the prevalence of coexisting autoimmune disorders among patients with IBD and their association with inflammatory bowel disease type. METHODS In this cross-sectional study at a tertiary care center in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, we examined 875 patients with IBD (530 with Crohn's disease and 345 with ulcerative colitis). Patient demographics, disease types, treatment modalities, and co-occurring autoimmune conditions were analyzed using statistical and regression analyses. RESULTS Overall, 21.7%, 19.4%, and 25.2% of the patients had IMIDs, Crohn's disease, and ulcerative colitis, respectively. Patients with ulcerative colitis had higher rates of hepatic autoimmune conditions (9.6%) and endocrine autoimmune diseases (4.1% vs 1.3%; P = 0.010) than those with Crohn's disease (4.5%; P = 0.003). Regression analysis revealed significant associations between hepatic (P = 0.012) and endocrine autoimmune diseases (P = 0.018) with ulcerative colitis diagnosis, although the model's predictive accuracy was moderate (overall, 63%; specificity, 95%; sensitivity, 14%). CONCLUSIONS Our study highlights the significant co-occurrence of autoimmune diseases with IBD, particularly the distinct autoimmune profiles of Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. Identifying the specific ulcerative colitis-associated autoimmune comorbidities could guide personalized therapeutic strategies and inform future research on the pathophysiological relationship between these conditions.

Clin Pharmacol Ther 2024; 116:1240-1251.

Abstract
Upadacitinib, a selective Janus kinase inhibitor, is the first orally administered therapy approved for the treatment of Crohn's disease (CD). This work characterized the pharmacokinetics of upadacitinib in CD patients and evaluated the relationships between upadacitinib steady-state plasma exposures and efficacy as well as safety parameters during the 12-week induction and the 52-week maintenance periods, to provide dosing recommendations for the treatment of CD. Upadacitinib pharmacokinetics in CD patients administered the extended-release formulation were consistent with patient populations in other approved indications. None of the evaluated CD-specific patient characteristics (e.g., disease location and prior gastrointestinal surgeries) had a meaningful impact on upadacitinib pharmacokinetics. Exposure-response analyses during 12-week induction treatment showed that response across all evaluated efficacy end points were approaching a plateau at median plasma exposures associated with 45 mg QD. Analyses for the maintenance period demonstrated that 30 mg QD is predicted to provide an additional 8% to 10% benefit for endoscopic response and endoscopic remission compared with 15 mg QD in patients who failed biologics. The analyses for safety showed a statistically significant relationship between increasing upadacitinib plasma exposures and the percentage of patients experiencing >2 g/dL decrease in hemoglobin from Baseline during induction and showed shallow relationships for serious infections and herpes zoster during the maintenance period. These results demonstrated adequate absorption of the extended-release formulation of upadacitinib in CD patients. The exposure-response analyses confirmed that 45 mg QD dose maximized efficacy as induction treatment and supported the selection of 15 mg QD or 30 mg QD as the maintenance doses.

Abstract
The high prevalence of comorbid mental disorders (CMDs) in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is well-documented. This study delves into the intricate CMD-IBD relationship through comprehensive analyses using human variants, gut microbiome, and anxiety/depression estimates from a cohort of 507 IBD patients and 75 controls. Notably, patients with IBD, especially those with CMD, exhibited lower diversity than controls. We identified 106 differentially abundant taxa (DATs) in IBD patients compared to controls and 21 DATs distinguishing CMD-affected from CMD-free IBD patients. Microbial IBD-risk scores, reflecting an individual's microbial burden for IBD, revealed a significant enrichment of IBD-risk signatures in CMD-affected patients compared to CMD-free patients. Additionally, there was an IBD-risk variant potentially regulating the abundance of an IBD/CMD-associated DAT, suggesting an interplay between IBD-risk variants and dysbiosis in CMD. Our investigation underscores the pivotal role of IBD-associated gut dysbiosis in predisposing IBD patients to CMD, partially through genetic variant-mediated mechanisms.

Prevalence of stricturing, penetrating complications and extraintestinal manifestations in inflammatory bowel disease detected on cross-sectional imaging in a tertiary care setting. United European Gastroenterol J 2024; 12:870-878.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Stricturing, penetrating complications and extraintestinal manifestations (EIMs) are frequent in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). There is limited data on the prevalence of these complications in patients with IBD. Therefore, we aimed to assess the burden of these complications detected incidentally on cross-sectional imaging. METHODS A retrospective study conducted at two tertiary care centers in London, Ontario. Patients (≥18 years) with a confirmed diagnosis of IBD who underwent CT enterography (CTE) or MR enterography (MRE) between 1 Jan 2010 and 31 Dec 2018 were included. Categorical variables were reported as proportions and the mean and standard deviations were reported for continuous variables. RESULTS A total of 615 imaging tests (MRE: 67.3% [414/615]) were performed in 557 IBD patients (CD: 91.4% [509/557], UC: 8.6% [48/557]). 38.2% (213/557) of patients were male, with mean age of 45.6 years (±15.8), and median disease duration of 11.0 years (±12.5). Among patients with CD, 33.2% (169/509) had strictures, with 7.8% having two or more strictures and 66.3% considered inflammatory. A fistula was reported in 10.6% (54/509), the most common being perianal fistula (27.8% [15/54]), followed by enterocutaneous fistula (16.8% [9/54]), and enteroenteric fistula (16.8% [9/54]). Additionally, 7.4% (41/557) of patients with IBD were found to have an EIM on cross-sectional imaging, with the most prevalent EIM being cholelithiasis (63.4% [26/41]), followed by sacroiliitis (24.4% [10/41]), primary sclerosing cholangitis (4.8% [2/41]) and nephrolithiasis (4.8% [2/41]). CONCLUSIONS Approximately 40% of patients with CD undergoing cross-sectional imaging had evidence of a stricture or fistulizing disease, with 7% of patients with IBD having a detectable EIM. These results highlight the burden of disease and the need for specific therapies for these disease phenotypes.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The development of certain immune-mediated diseases (IMD) in patients with inflammatory bowel diseases [IBD; Crohn's disease (CD), ulcerative colitis (UC)] has been linked to treatment of IBD. Hair loss in some patients may be due to immune-mediated alopecia areata (AA). Risk factors and outcomes of AA in patients with IBD have not been previously explored. METHODS This was a retrospective, multi-center case-control study. Cases were identified as individuals who developed IBD before AA diagnosis. Controls comprised of those who were never diagnosed with AA and treated contemporaneously, selected using random number generator. We extracted demographic and IBD treatment history. Severity of Alopecia Tool (SALT) was used to stratify AA severity. AA outcomes and interventions were compared within controls. RESULTS We identified 58 cases and 90 controls. Cases had significantly higher rate of tumor necrosis factor α antagonist (anti-TNF) use compared to controls (40.7% vs. 20.0%, p = 0.006). Both groups had similar IBD disease location, behavior, and related surgery. Majority of cases had endoscopic remission or mild disease activity at AA diagnosis. There was no difference in partial or complete improvement of AA between those who stopped or continued IBD therapy (p = 0.57). Those with severe AA were significantly less likely to have complete (0% vs 33.3%, p = 0.01) or any improvement (50% vs 84.9%, p = 0.02) of AA compared to those with non-severe AA. DISCUSSION Individuals with IBD who later develop AA were more likely to have been on anti-TNF at time of AA onset. Severity of AA was a significant predictor of AA resolution. Fortunately many patients had improvement in their AA despite continuation of IBD therapy.

Abstract
Purpose This research aimed to develop and validate a META-algorithm combining individual immune-mediated inflammatory disease (IMID)-specific algorithms to identify the exact IMID indications for incident biological drug users from claims data within the context of the Italian VALORE project. Methods and Patients All subjects with at least one dispensing of TNF-alpha inhibitors, anti-interleukin agents, and selective immunosuppressants approved for IMIDs were identified from claims databases of Latium region in Italy (observation period: 2010-2020). Validated coding algorithms for identifying individual IMIDs from claims databases were found from published literature and combined into a META-algorithm. Positive predictive value (PPV), sensitivity (Se), negative predictive value (NPV), specificity (Sp), and accuracy (Acc) were estimated for each indication against the electronic therapeutic plans (ETPs) of the Latium region as the reference standard. Lastly, the frequency of the indication of use across individual biologic drugs was compared with that reported in three other Italian regions (Lombardy, Apulia, and the Veneto region). Results In total, 9755 incident biological drug users with a single IMID indication were identified. Using the newly developed META-algorithm, an indication of use was detected in 95% (n=9255) of the total cohort. The estimated Acc, Se, Sp, PPV, and NPV, against the reference standard were as follows: 0.96, 0.86, 0.97, 0.82, and 0.98 for Crohn's disease, 0.96, 0.80, 0.98, 0.85, and 0.97 for ulcerative colitis, 0.93, 0.76, 0.99, 0.95, and 0.92 for rheumatoid arthritis, 0.97, 0.75, 0.99, 0.85, and 0.98 for spondylarthritis, and 0.91, 0.92, 0.91, 0.88, and 0.94 for psoriatic arthritis/psoriasis, respectively. Additionally, no substantial difference was observed in the frequency of indication of use by active ingredient among Latium and the other three Italian regions included in the study. Conclusion The newly developed META-algorithm demonstrated high validity estimates in the Italian claims data and was capable of discriminating with good performance among the most frequent IMID indications.

Immune-Mediated Inflammatory Diseases Awareness and Management among Physicians Treating Patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease: An IG-IBD Survey. J Clin Med 2024; 13:1857. [PMID: 38610623 PMCID: PMC11012957 DOI: 10.3390/jcm13071857] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/22/2023] [Revised: 03/20/2024] [Accepted: 03/21/2024] [Indexed: 04/14/2024] Open
Abstract
(1) Background: Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is frequently associated to other immune-mediated inflammatory diseases (IMIDs). This study aims at assessing physicians' awareness of the issue and the current status of IMID management. (2) Methods: A web-based survey was distributed to all 567 physicians affiliated to IG-IBD. (3) Results: A total of 249 (43.9%) physicians completed the survey. Over 90% of the responding physicians were gastroenterology specialists, primarily working in public hospitals. About 51.0% of the physicians had access to an integrated outpatient clinic, where gastroenterologists collaborated with rheumatologists and 28.5% with dermatologists. However, for 36.5% of physicians, integrated ambulatory care was not feasible. Designated appointment slots for rheumatologists and dermatologists were accessible to 72.2% and 58.2% of physicians, respectively, while 20.1% had no access to designated slots. About 5.2% of physicians report investigating signs or symptoms of IMIDs only during the initial patient assessment. However, 87.9% inquired about the presence of concomitant IMIDs at the initial assessment and actively investigated any signs or symptoms during subsequent clinical examination. (4) Conclusions: While Italian physicians recognize the importance of IMIDs associated with IBD, organizational challenges impede the attainment of optimal multidisciplinary collaboration. Efforts should be directed toward enhancing practical frameworks to improve the overall management of these complex conditions.

Beheshti Maal A, Shahrbaf MA, Sadri B, Hossein-Khannazer N, Mansournia MA, Vosough M. Prevalence of Hepatobiliary Manifestations in Inflammatory Bowel Disease: A GRADE Assessed Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of more than 1.7 Million Patients. J Crohns Colitis 2024; 18:360-374. [PMID: 37695111 DOI: 10.1093/ecco-jcc/jjad157] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/07/2023] [Revised: 08/21/2023] [Accepted: 09/08/2023] [Indexed: 09/12/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Inflammatory bowel disease [IBD] comprises an immune-mediated group of chronic gastrointestinal disorders. Patients with IBD may experience extraintestinal manifestations, such as hepatobiliary complications. This meta-analysis aims to assess the prevalence of different hepatic manifestations in IBD patients. METHODS For this systematic review and meta-analysis, PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, and Embase were searched until July 20, 2022, by specifying keywords for IBD, hepatic manifestations, and study type. Full texts of cohort studies in English that examined the prevalence of different hepatic manifestations were included in this study. The primary outcome was the overall prevalence of hepatic manifestations in IBD patients. For the statistical analysis, a proportion by random effect model meta-analysis was performed. The registration number for the protocol of this study in PROSPERO is CRD42022369595. RESULTS From the 4421 articles retrieved from the primary search, 118 met the inclusion criteria and were included in the final analysis. After a pooled analysis of 1 729 128 patients, the overall prevalence of hepatic manifestations was 3.49% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 3.31-3.68%; I2: 99.55%). The pooled prevalence of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease in 228 216 patients was 26.1% [95% CI: 22.1-30.2%; I2: 99.018%]. After pooled analysis of 9642 patients, the prevalence of primary sclerosing cholangitis was 1.67% [95% CI: 1.47-1.88%; I2: 99.10%]. The pooled prevalence of biliary stones was 4.1% [95% CI: 3.6-4.7%; I2: 97.43%]. Autoimmune hepatitis (0.51% [95% CI: 0.26-0.75%]; I2: 85.36%) and portal vein thrombosis (0.21% [95% CI: 0.08-0.33%]; I2: 97.95%) are considered as rare manifestations. CONCLUSION This study summarizes the prevalence and importance of different hepatic manifestations in IBD patients. These findings are crucial for the management of extraintestinal manifestations, especially hepatic manifestations, in IBD patients.

Prevalence and Clinical Impact of Immune-Mediated Inflammatory Diseases in Patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease: Results from a Large Retrospective Observational Study. J Clin Med 2024; 13:1019. [PMID: 38398332 PMCID: PMC10889244 DOI: 10.3390/jcm13041019] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/02/2024] [Revised: 02/02/2024] [Accepted: 02/08/2024] [Indexed: 02/25/2024] Open
Abstract
(1) Background: Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs) are chronic inflammatory disorders involving innate and adaptive immune responses. Despite primarily affecting the gut, recent insights highlight systemic implications, expanding our understanding beyond intestinal boundaries. (2) Methods: This retrospective multicentric study explored the association of IBD and immune-mediated inflammatory diseases (IMIDs) and the impact of concurrent IMIDs on the course of IBD. Clinical data were collected from consecutive medical records of patients with IBD. For assessing the impact of concurrent IMIDs, a control group of IBD patients without associated IMIDs was considered. (3) Results: Of 6589 IBD patients, 6.8% exhibited concomitant IMIDs. Notably, 79.8% of these patients had an aggressive disease course. Psoriasis, atopic dermatitis, and type 1 diabetes mellitus prevalence were lower in the IBD population than in the general population. Conversely, multiple sclerosis, primary sclerosing cholangitis, and pyoderma gangrenosum were more prevalent in IBD patients. Among the patients with a concomitant IMID, 79.8% had an aggressive disease course vs. 8.1% in the control group (p < 0.001). (4) Conclusions: This study underscores the frequency of IMIDs in IBD patients and their association with a more aggressive disease course. The recognition of concurrent IMIDs is crucial for comprehensive patient management, influencing therapeutic decisions and potentially improving outcomes.

Abstract
AIM To assess whether oral health problems affect disease-specific quality of life (QoL) of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients, and vice versa, whether IBD affects oral-health-related QoL. MATERIALS AND METHODS Individuals reporting IBD and matched controls were surveyed on general anamnestic information, oral-health-related questions and the Oral Health Impact Profile (OHIP)-5. IBD patients were additionally surveyed on years since diagnosis, disease activity and severity as well as health-related QoL (Short Inflammatory Bowel Disease Questionnaire, sIBDQ). OHIP-5 and sIBDQ were defined as primary outcome parameters, and several predictors and confounders were used in adjusted univariable and multivariable regression analyses. RESULTS Answers from 1108 IBD patients and 3429 controls were analysed. Compared with controls, IBD patients reported significantly more frequently an oral impact on daily life and worse oral-health-related QoL, with Crohn's disease (CD) patients being more severely affected than ulcerative colitis (UC) patients. The diagnosis of UC and CD, having <20 teeth, severe periodontitis and stressful daily-life experience were associated with a higher prevalence of poor oral-health-related QoL. Among IBD patients, an impaired IBD-specific, health-related QoL was significantly associated with the diagnosis of CD and depression, IBD activity and severity, having <20 teeth, presence of oral lesions and stressful daily-life experience, while a longer time since diagnosis was significantly associated with an improved IBD-specific, health-related QoL. CONCLUSIONS The results of the present study indicate, for the first time, that oral health problems are associated with an impairment of IBD-specific health-related QoL, and vice versa, IBD is associated with an impaired oral health-related QoL. This emphasizes the potential advantages of including dental professionals in the multi-disciplinary treatment teams of IBD patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Inflammatory bowel diseases (Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis) and microscopic colitis (lymphocytic and collagenous colitis) are immune-mediated diseases of the gastrointestinal tract, with distinct pathophysiology. OBJECTIVE We sought to compare the prevalence of autoimmune diseases between microscopic colitis (MC) and inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs) in our patient cohorts in their medical history. METHODS We collected data from 611 patients (508 with IBD, 103 with MC). We recorded cases of other autoimmune diseases. The screened documentation was written in the period between 2008 and 2022. We sought to determine whether colonic involvement had an impact on the prevalence of autoimmune diseases. RESULTS Ulcerative colitis patients and patients with colonic-predominant Crohn's disease had a greater propensity for autoimmune conditions across the disease course than patients with ileal-predominant Crohn's disease. Gluten-related disorders were more common in Crohn's disease than in ulcerative colitis, and slightly more common than in microscopic colitis. In ulcerative colitis, 10 patients had non-differentiated collagenosis registered, which can later develop into a definite autoimmune disease. CONCLUSIONS Predominantly colonic involvement can be a predisposing factor for developing additional autoimmune disorders in IBD. Ulcerative colitis patients may have laboratory markers of autoimmunity, without fulfilling the diagnostic criteria for definitive autoimmune disorders (non-differentiated collagenosis).

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Inflammatory bowel disease [IBD] has been associated with spondyloarthritis [SpA], but population-based estimates are scarce. Here we compare the occurrence of SpA before and after a diagnosis of IBD with the general population, overall and by IBD subtype and age. METHODS We used a nationwide register-based cohort study of 39 203 patients diagnosed with IBD during 2006-2016, identified from Swedish registers and gastrointestinal biopsy data, and 390 490 matched reference individuals from the general population. Conditional logistic regression models were used to estimate odds ratios [ORs] for a prior [prevalent] SpA diagnosis and conditional Cox regression to calculate hazard ratios [HRs] for a subsequent [incident] SpA diagnosis in IBD patients. RESULTS IBD patients were more likely to have prevalent SpA at IBD diagnosis [2.5%] compared with reference individuals [0.7%] with an OR of 3.48 [95% CI: 3.23, 3.75]. They also more often received an incident diagnosis of SpA; during 23 341 934 person-years of follow-up in IBD patients, there were 1030 SpA events [5.0/1000 person-years] compared with 1524 SpA events in the reference group [0.72/1000 person-years], corresponding to an HR of 7.15 [95% CI: 6.60, 7.75]. In subgroup analyses, associations were most pronounced among patients with Crohn's disease ([OR = 5.20; 95% CI: 4.59, 5.89], and [HR = 10.55; 95% CI: 9.16, 12.15]) and paediatric onset IBD ([OR = 3.63; 95% CI: 2.35, 5.59] and [HR = 15.03; 95% CI: 11.01, 20.53]). CONCLUSIONS IBD patients more frequently experience SpA both before and after the diagnosis of IBD compared with the general population, supporting evidence of a shared pathophysiology. The variation in SpA comorbidity, across IBD subtypes and age groups, calls for targeted approaches to facilitate timely diagnosis and intervention.

Overrepresentation of Enterobacteriaceae and Escherichia coli is the major gut microbiome signature in Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis; a comprehensive metagenomic analysis of IBDMDB datasets. Front Cell Infect Microbiol 2022; 12:1015890. [PMID: 36268225 PMCID: PMC9577114 DOI: 10.3389/fcimb.2022.1015890] [Citation(s) in RCA: 41] [Impact Index Per Article: 13.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/16/2022] [Accepted: 09/20/2022] [Indexed: 11/28/2022] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES A number of converging strands of research suggest that the intestinal Enterobacteriaceae plays a crucial role in the development and progression of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), however, the changes in the abundance of Enterobacteriaceae species and their related metabolic pathways in Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC) compared to healthy people are not fully explained by comprehensive comparative metagenomics analysis. In the current study, we investigated the alternations of the Enterobacterales population in the gut microbiome of patients with CD and UC compared to healthy subjects. METHODS Metagenomic datasets were selected from the Integrative Human Microbiome Project (HMP2) through the Inflammatory Bowel Disease Multi'omics Database (IBDMDB). We performed metagenome-wide association studies on fecal samples from 191 CD patients, 132 UC patients, and 125 healthy controls (HCs). We used the metagenomics dataset to study bacterial community structure, relative abundance, differentially abundant bacteria, functional analysis, and Enterobacteriaceae-related biosynthetic pathways. RESULTS Compared to the gut microbiome of HCs, six Enterobacteriaceae species were significantly elevated in both CD and UC patients, including Escherichia coli, Klebsiella variicola, Klebsiella quasipneumoniae, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Proteus mirabilis, Citrobacter freundii, and Citrobacter youngae, while Klebsiella oxytoca, Morganella morganii, and Citrobacter amalonaticus were uniquely differentially abundant and enriched in the CD cohort. Four species were uniquely differentially abundant and enriched in the UC cohort, including Citrobacter portucalensis, Citrobacter pasteurii, Citrobacter werkmanii, and Proteus hauseri. Our analysis also showed a dramatically increased abundance of E. coli in their intestinal bacterial community. Biosynthetic pathways of aerobactin siderophore, LPS, enterobacterial common antigen, nitrogen metabolism, and sulfur relay systems encoded by E. coli were significantly elevated in the CD samples compared to the HCs. Menaquinol biosynthetic pathways were associated with UC that belonged to K. pneumoniae strains. CONCLUSIONS In conclusion, compared with healthy people, the taxonomic and functional composition of intestinal bacteria in CD and UC patients was significantly shifted to Enterobacteriaceae species, mainly E. coli and Klebsiella species.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Autoimmune sclerosing cholangitis (ASC) is a childhood sclerosing cholangitis frequently associated with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). We describe the IBD phenotype in ASC patients and associated liver disease outcomes. METHODS Single center retrospective observational review of ASC patients, with a control population of pediatric IBD. Demographic and clinical parameters were obtained. Clinical endpoints were escalation of IBD therapy (biologic or colectomy) and transplant-free survival. RESULTS In 93 ASC patients (53.8% female) and median follow up of 172 months: 70% had IBD, 25.8% underwent liver transplant. Median age at liver transplant was 21.7 years, at 131 months from ASC diagnosis. There was no association between presence of IBD and transplant-free survival, whilst those requiring second-line immunomodulators for ASC had poorer long-term liver prognosis. During follow-up 22 (33.8%) ASC-IBD required biologic or colectomy. On multivariate analysis ASC was associated with a lower risk of escalation of IBD therapy (HR 0.14, 95% CI 0.05-0.42; P=.001), including biologic therapy (HR 0.21, 95% CI 0.08-0.55, P=.002), but not colectomy on univariate analysis (HR 1.54, 95% CI 0.43-5.44, P=.51). CONCLUSIONS IBD is common in ASC and during longterm follow up a third of ASC-IBD required escalation of IBD therapy; however ASC-IBD was lower risk compared to IBD alone. IBD does not appear to impact on transplant-free survival in patients with ASC, however second-line immunomodulators for ASC are associated with poorer IBD and liver outcomes.

Prevalence and clinical features of patients with autoimmune pancreatitis and inflammatory bowel disease: A systematic review and meta-analysis. J Gastroenterol Hepatol 2022; 37:1474-1484. [PMID: 35596263 DOI: 10.1111/jgh.15894] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/10/2022] [Revised: 04/15/2022] [Accepted: 05/02/2022] [Indexed: 12/13/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM Autoimmune pancreatitis (AIP) and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are categorized into immune-mediated inflammatory disorders (IMIDs). While AIP is a pancreato-biliary IMID with an increased incidence and prevalence among patients with IBD, its features are still unclear. This systematic review and meta-analysis aims to assess the prevalence and clinical characteristics of AIP-IBD patients. METHODS Electronic databases were searched to identify observational studies assessing AIP and IBD. The primary outcome was the prevalence of IBD among AIP patients, and vice versa. Secondary outcomes included clinical findings and outcomes of each IMID in AIP-IBD patients. The pooled rate of each outcome was determined using a random effects model. RESULTS For primary outcomes, 40 observational studies with 4031 AIP patients were included and the pooled prevalence of IBD was 10.5% (95% CI 7.2-15.0%). Meanwhile, five studies with 10,551 IBD patients were included and the pooled prevalence of AIP was 0.6% (95% CI 0.2-1.9%). For secondary outcomes, 53 observational studies with 469 AIP-IBD patients were assessed. The rates of type 2 AIP and ulcerative colitis were 79.2% (95% CI 69.1-86.6%) and 74.8% (95% CI 68.2-80.4%), respectively. We also demonstrated AIP-IBD patients were at a significant increased risk of AIP recurrence and colectomy compared with patients with either AIP or IBD (RR = 1.9, 95% CI 1.1-3.1 and P = 0.014 and RR = 3.7, 95% CI 1.9-6.9, P < 0.001, respectively). CONCLUSIONS Our meta-analysis reported the prevalence of AIP-IBD patients and demonstrated patients with both IMIDs had a high risk of poor outcomes.

[PMID: 35924080 PMCID: PMC9340394 DOI: 10.1177/17562848221115312] [Citation(s) in RCA: 29] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/12/2022] [Accepted: 07/06/2022] [Indexed: 02/04/2023] Open
Abstract
Patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) often have other immune-mediated inflammatory diseases (IMIDs), and the prevalence of any IMID is higher in IBD patients than in the general population. IBD and other IMIDs involve alterations in innate and adaptive immune responses. Their co-occurrence depends on shared immune and inflammatory processes, pathogenic mechanisms, and genetic and environmental risk factors, including drugs, especially tumor necrosis factor inhibitors. The more common IMIDs associated with IBD have been widely described, so this review focuses on the less frequent associations. The IMIDs discussed here are skin disorders (psoriasis, atopic dermatitis, vitiligo, epidermolysis bullosa acquisita, cutaneous polyarteritis nodosa, and hidradenitis suppurativa), hepato-pancreatic diseases (autoimmune hepatitis, granulomatous hepatitis, and autoimmune pancreatitis), endocrine diseases (autoimmune thyroid diseases, and type 1 diabetes mellitus), multiple sclerosis, and respiratory diseases (asthma, bronchiectasis, and interstitial pneumonia). The early detection of IMIDs in IBD patients is important to prevent their deleterious clinical course and limit their psychological impact. Care for IBD patients with IMIDs should be multispecialist, with a single therapeutic strategy instead of treating each disease separately.

Akiyama S, Fukuda S, Steinberg JM, Suzuki H, Tsuchiya K. Characteristics of inflammatory bowel diseases in patients with concurrent immune-mediated inflammatory diseases. World J Gastroenterol 2022; 28:2843-2853.

Abstract
Patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are more likely to have concurrent immune-mediated inflammatory diseases (IMIDs) than those without IBD. IMIDs have been observed to alter the phenotype and outcomes of IBD in recent studies. Several studies have found that IBD patients with concurrent IMIDs may have more extensive or severe disease phenotypes, and are considered to be at increased risk of requiring biologics and IBD-related surgeries, suggesting that having multiple IMIDs is a poor prognostic factor for IBD. Furthermore, IBD patients with primary sclerosing cholangitis and Takayasu arteritis are reported to have unique endoscopic phenotypes, suggesting concurrent IMIDs can influence IBD phenotype with specific intestinal inflammatory distributions. In this review, we discuss the pathogenesis, disease phenotypes, and clinical outcomes in IBD patients with concomitant IMIDs.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), encompassing Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, are chronic, inflammatory diseases of the gastrointestinal tract. We have initiated a Danish population-based inception cohort study aiming to investigate the underlying mechanisms for the heterogeneous course of IBD, including need for, and response to, treatment. METHODS AND ANALYSIS IBD Prognosis Study is a prospective, population-based inception cohort study of unselected, newly diagnosed adult, adolescent and paediatric patients with IBD within the uptake area of Hvidovre University Hospital and Herlev University Hospital, Denmark, which covers approximately 1 050 000 inhabitants (~20% of the Danish population). The diagnosis of IBD will be according to the Porto diagnostic criteria in paediatric and adolescent patients or the Copenhagen diagnostic criteria in adult patients. All patients will be followed prospectively with regular clinical examinations including ileocolonoscopies, MRI of the small intestine, validated patient-reported measures and objective examinations with intestinal ultrasound. In addition, intestinal biopsies from ileocolonoscopies, stool, rectal swabs, saliva samples, swabs of the oral cavity and blood samples will be collected systematically for the analysis of biomarkers, microbiome and genetic profiles. Environmental factors and quality of life will be assessed using questionnaires and, when available, automatic registration of purchase data. The occurrence and course of extraintestinal manifestations will be evaluated by rheumatologists, dermatologists and dentists, and assessed by MR cholangiopancreatography, MR of the spine and sacroiliac joints, ultrasonography of peripheral joints and entheses, clinical oral examination, as well as panoramic radiograph of the jaws. Fibroscans and dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry scans will be performed to monitor occurrence and course of chronic liver diseases, osteopenia and osteoporosis. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION This study has been approved by Ethics Committee of the Capital Region of Denmark (approval number: H-20065831). Study results will be disseminated through publication in international scientific journals and presentation at (inter)national conferences.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with Crohn's disease (CD) are at increased risk of co-occurring immune-mediated inflammatory diseases (IMIDs). As discrepancy exists regarding the phenotypic presentation of CD among patients with such co-occurring IMIDs, we aimed to conduct a systematic review with meta-analysis characterizing the phenotype of CD among this subgroup of patients. METHODS PubMed, Embase, and Scopus were searched from their earliest records to October 2019 for studies reporting the behavior and localization of CD according to the Vienna or Montreal Classifications and CD-related surgery in patients with co-occurring IMIDs. These studies were the subject of a random effect meta-analysis. RESULTS After reviewing 24,413 studies, we identified a total of 23 studies comprising 1572 and 35,043 CD patients with and without co-occurring IMIDs, respectively, that fulfilled our inclusion criteria. Overall, patients with co-occurring IMIDs were more likely to have upper gastrointestinal inflammation than were patients without co-occurring IMIDs [relative risk (RR) = 1.49 (95% confidence interval (CI) 1.09-2.04), p = 0.01, I 2 = 7%]. In addition, presence of primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) was associated with a lower occurrence of ileal affection [RR = 0.44 (95% CI 0.24-0.81), p < 0.01, I 2 = 32%], increased occurrence of colonic affection [RR = 1.78 (95% CI 1.33-2.38), p < 0.01, I 2 = 32%] and an increased likelihood of non-stricturing and non-penetrating behavior [RR = 1.43 (95% CI 0.97-2.11), p = 0.07, I 2 = 86%]. The latter reached significance when cumulating different IMIDs [RR = 1.30 (95% CI 1.09-1.55), p < 0.01, I 2 = 88%]. CD patients with PSC also underwent fewer CD-related surgeries [RR = 0.55 (95% CI 0.34-0.88), p = 0.01, I 2 = 0%], irrespective of CD location or behavior. CONCLUSION This study emphasizes that CD patients with co-existing PSC are likely to have a unique inflammatory distribution primarily confined to the colon, while patients with IMIDs in general have higher likelihood of affection of upper gastrointestinal tract and a non-stricturing and non-penetrating behavior. As such a phenotype of CD is typically associated with a milder disease course; future studies are needed to confirm these results.

Abstract
Introduction Crohn’s disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC) are chronic, inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). Each class and type of medication available for the treatment of IBD has distinct characteristics and long-term effects that a patient may consider. We present the results of qualitative research that aimed to develop a descriptive framework that outlines the most relevant disease and/or treatment attributes for IBD treatment decisions and focuses on the patient perspective. Methods This research employed a three-step approach: a literature review to identify a broad list of attributes, a focus group meeting including patients and clinicians to assess the relevance of the attributes, and two rounds of voting to name and define each attribute. The literature review was used to develop the initial list of attributes. Although the same attributes were defined for both UC and CD, the relative importance of each attribute to UC or CD was considered. The list of attributes was discussed and evaluated in the focus group meeting, which included eight patient representatives and nine gastroenterologists. Using feedback elicited from the focus group meeting, the research team developed a draft of the descriptive framework that grouped the attributes into domain subsets. All members of the focus group participated in two subsequent rounds of structured, online voting, which was used to refine the wording to name and define each attribute. Additionally, participants ranked all the attributes included in the descriptive framework to suggest which attributes were less relevant and could be omitted. Results Among 574 publications retrieved from the databases and registries, we identified 32 eligible publications, and an initial list of attributes was developed. This list was refined during the focus group meeting, resulting in a draft descriptive framework of attributes within subsets of domains. The final descriptive framework was developed based on structured rounds of online voting to further refine attribute names and definitions. In the final descriptive framework, a total of ten attributes were identified: abdominal pain, other disease-related pain, bowel urgency, fatigue, risk of cancer and serious infections within the next 10 years, risk of mild to moderate complications, aesthetic complications related to treatment, emotional status, sexual life, and social life and relationships. These attributes were distributed across three domains: efficacy, complications and risk, and health-related quality of life. Conclusions Through the identification of the ten most relevant attributes that influence patient decision making for IBD treatments, we developed a descriptive framework that should be considered by physicians when discussing IBD treatment options with their patients. The results of our qualitative research may also be helpful for the development of future IBD clinical studies and quantitative research.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Patients with inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs) are at risk of developing a variety of other immune-mediated inflammatory diseases (IMIDs). The influence of co-occurring IMIDs on the disease course of IBD remains unknown. The aim of this study was therefore to conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis of the impact of IMIDs on phenotypic presentation and outcome in patients with IBD. METHODS PubMed and Embase were searched from their earliest records through December 2018 and updated in October 2019 for studies reporting proportions or ratios of IBD-related disease outcomes in patients with and without co-occurring IMIDs. Meta-analyses were performed to estimate summary proportions and risks of the main outcomes. PRISMA guidelines were used, and study quality was assessed according to the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale. RESULTS A total of 93 studies were identified, comprising 16,064 IBD patients with co-occurring IMIDs and 3,451,414 IBD patients without IMIDs. Patients with IBD and co-occurring IMIDs were at increased risk of having extensive colitis or pancolitis (risk ratio, 1.38; 95% Cl, 1.25-1.52; P < 0.01, I2 = 86%) and receiving IBD-related surgeries (risk ratio, 1.17; 95% Cl, 1.01-1.36; P = 0.03; I2 = 85%) compared with patients without IMIDs. Co-occurrence of IMIDs other than primary sclerosing cholangitis in patients with IBD was associated with an increased risk of receiving immunomodulators (risk ratio, 1.15; 95% Cl, 1.06-1.24; P < 0.01; I2 = 60%) and biologic therapies (risk ratio, 1.19; 95% Cl, 1.08-1.32; P < 0.01; I2 = 53%). CONCLUSION This meta-analysis found that the presence of co-occurring IMIDs influences the disease course of IBD, including an increased risk of surgery and its phenotypical expression.

Abstract
Extraintestinal manifestations (EIMs) are frequently observed in IBDs and contribute considerably to morbidity and mortality. They have long been considered a difficult to treat entity due to limited therapy options, but the increasing use of anti-tumour necrosis factors has dramatically changed the therapeutic approach to EIM in recent years. Newly emerging therapies such as JAK inhibitors and anti-interleukin 12/23 will further shape the available armamentarium. Clinicians dealing with EIMs in everyday IBD practice may be puzzled by the numerous available biological agents and small molecules, their efficacy for EIMs and their potential off-label indications. Current guidelines on EIMs in IBD do not include treatment algorithms to help practitioners in the treatment decision-making process. Herein, we summarise knowledge on emerging biological treatment options and small molecules for EIMs, highlight current research gaps, provide therapeutic algorithms for EIM management and shed light on future strategies in the context of IBD-related EIMs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The co-occurrence of autoimmune diseases is well recognized. Though studies have suggested that eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) is more common in patients with inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), whether co-occurrence of EoE modifies natural history of IBD is unknown. METHODS This was a retrospective case-control study at a referral center. Cases consisted of patients with IBD and EoE, with both diseases diagnosed using established criteria. Controls comprised patients with IBD without concomitant EoE. Two controls were selected per case and were matched for duration of IBD. Relevant covariates regarding disease presentation and natural history were extracted from the medical record and compared between the 2 groups. RESULTS A total of 95 IBD-EoE cases and 190 IBD controls were included in our study. The IBD-EoE group was diagnosed with IBD at a younger age than those with IBD alone (22.3 years vs 29.0 years; P < 0.001) and were more likely to be male (80.0% vs 45.8%; P < 0.001). There were no differences in medical or surgical therapy for IBD between the 2 groups. Among those with IBD-EoE, patients for whom IBD was diagnosed first presented more commonly with dysphagia (50.8% vs 26.9%; P = 0.04) and endoscopically had evidence of esophageal rings (50.0% vs 23.1%; P = 0.02) when compared with those where EoE was diagnosed first. CONCLUSION Patients with concurrent IBD-EoE are diagnosed at a younger age and more likely to be males but have similar natural history as those without EoE. There were differences in EoE phenotype based on whether the EoE or IBD was diagnosed first.

Association Between Inflammatory Bowel Diseases and Celiac Disease: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. Gastroenterology 2020; 159:884-903.e31. [PMID: 32416141 DOI: 10.1053/j.gastro.2020.05.016] [Citation(s) in RCA: 57] [Impact Index Per Article: 11.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/22/2020] [Revised: 04/23/2020] [Accepted: 05/02/2020] [Indexed: 12/13/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS There is controversy over the association between celiac disease (CeD) and inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to assess evidence for an association between CeD and IBD. METHODS We searched databases including MEDLINE, EMBASE, CENTRAL, Web of Science, CINAHL, DARE, and SIGLE through June 25, 2019 for studies assessing the risk of CeD in patients with IBD, and IBD in patients with CeD, compared with controls of any type. We used the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale to evaluate the risk of bias and GRADE to assess the certainty of the evidence. RESULTS We identified 9791 studies and included 65 studies in our analysis. Moderate certainty evidence found an increased risk of CeD in patients with IBD vs controls (risk ratio [RR] 3.96; 95% confidence interval [CI] 2.23-7.02) and increased risk of IBD in patients with CeD vs controls (RR 9.88; 95% CI 4.03-24.21). There was low-certainty evidence for the risk of anti-Saccharomyces antibodies, a serologic marker of IBD, in patients with CeD vs controls (RR 6.22; 95% CI 2.44-15.84). There was low-certainty evidence for no difference in risk of HLA-DQ2 or DQ8 in patients with IBD vs controls (RR 1.04; 95% CI 0.42-2.56), and very low-certainty evidence for an increased risk of anti-tissue transglutaminase in patients with IBD vs controls (RR 1.52; 95% CI 0.52-4.40). Patients with IBD had a slight decrease in risk of anti-endomysial antibodies vs controls (RR 0.70; 95% CI 0.18-2.74), but these results are uncertain. CONCLUSIONS In a systematic review and meta-analysis, we found an increased risk of IBD in patients with CeD and increased risk of CeD in patients with IBD, compared with other patient populations. High-quality prospective cohort studies are needed to assess the risk of CeD-specific and IBD-specific biomarkers in patients with IBD and CeD.

Abstract
Immune-mediated inflammatory diseases (IMIDs) are chronic conditions that create a significant disease burden on millions of patients while adding a major financial burden to societies and healthcare systems. The introduction of biologic medicines has contributed majorly to improving the clinical outcomes of IMIDs and as such these modalities have gained first- or second-line positions in a wide range of treatment guidelines from different international clinical societies. However, the high cost of these biologics traditionally limited their accessibility and delayed their initiation, leaving millions of patients with unmet medical needs for a more affordable and sustainable solution. The introduction of cost-efficient biosimilar anti-TNFs within Europe since 2013 has allowed more patients with IMIDs to access biologic therapies earlier and for longer, potentially altering the course of the disease into a milder phenotype and reducing the long-term disease burden. This review provides the latest evidence for the impact of biosimilars on patient outcomes and demonstrates their clinical value beyond a reduction in price.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) belong to the group of immune-mediated diseases (IMIDs). The effect of associated IMIDs in the prognosis in IBD is nowadays unknown. To describe IMIDs associated to IBD patients and evaluate differences linked to the presence or absence of IMIDs. A unicentric retrospective descriptive study was designed. A cohort of 1,448 patients were categorized according to the presence of IMIDs. Clinical characteristics were obtained from IBD database. Univariate and multivariate analysis were performed. 385 patients were diagnosed with associated IMIDs while 1,063 had no associated IMIDs. A prevalence of 26.6% IMIDs associated to IBD was observed. Asthma, skin psoriasis and rheumatoid diseases were most commonly found. Factors associated to the presence of IMIDs were women (OR 1.48; 95 CI 1.17-1.87) and Crohn's disease (OR 1.35; 95 CI 1.07-1.70). Patients with associated IMIDs required more immunomodulator (OR 1.61; 95 CI 1.27-2.43) and biological treatment (OR 1.81; 95 CI 1.47-2.43). More surgical risk was observed in multivariate analysis in those patients diagnosed with IMIDs prior to the onset of IBD (OR 3.71; 95% CI 2.1-6.56). We considered the presence of IMIDs a poor prognostic factor and suggest a closer monitoring of these patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Epidemiological studies have established an association between psoriasis and inflammatory bowel disease [IBD], i.e. ulcerative colitis [UC] and Crohn's disease [CD], but results are inconsistent. The aim of this study was therefore to quantify the prevalences and association between IBD and psoriasis. METHODS PubMed, Web of Science, and EMBASE were searched from database inception through April 2018 for studies reporting data on psoriasis among patients with IBD and vice versa. Meta-analysis was performed to estimate, respectively, the prevalences and association between IBD and psoriasis. Data extraction was according to the PRISMA guideline, and quality assessment was made using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale. The main outcomes were the proportion of psoriasis patients with IBD and vice versa, as well as the association (odds ratio [OR]) of IBD in psoriasis and psoriasis in IBD, respectively. RESULTS Based on quantitative analysis of 93 studies, the prevalence of psoriasis in CD and in UC was 3.6% (95% confidence interval [CI] 3.1%-4.6%) and 2.8% [95% CI 2.0%-3.8%] respectively. The prevalence of CD and UC was 0.7% [95% CI 0.2%-1.3%] and 0.5% [95% CI 0.3%-0.8%], respectively, among patients with psoriasis. Presence of CD or UC was significantly associated with psoriasis, with OR 2.0 [95% CI 1.4-2.9] and OR 1.5 [95% CI 1.2-2.0], respectively. Presence of psoriasis was significantly associated with CD: OR 2.2 [95% CI 1.6-3.1] and with UC: OR 1.6 [95% CI 1.3-2.0]. CONCLUSIONS We found significant bidirectional associations between psoriasis and IBD, warranting increased awareness among clinicians in the diagnostic process, especially in children and adolescents with IBD. Last, this study showed an increased frequency of paradoxical psoriasis in patients treated with biologics.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS It is not clear whether the co-occurrence of immune-mediated inflammatory diseases (IMIDs) affects the course of inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). We investigated the occurrence of IMIDs in relation to onset of IBD and the effects of concurrent IMIDs on IBD outcomes in a nationwide study of the Danish population. METHODS We used a nationwide cohort of all individuals diagnosed with IBD, including Crohn's disease (CD) or ulcerative colitis (UC), in Denmark from 2007 through 2016 (n = 14,377). Patients were match with individuals without IBD from the general population (controls, n = 71,885). All cohort members were followed from birth until 2016, their migration, or their death. The occurrence of IMIDs was assessed using the Danish national patient register and Registry of Medicinal Products Statistics. RESULTS A total of 3,235 patients with a diagnosis of IBD (22.5%) has also received a diagnosis of an IMID; most IMIDs occurred before the onset of IBD (n = 2,600, 80.3%). The most common IMIDs observed were psoriasis, asthma, type 1 diabetes, and iridocyclitis. Patients with IBD treated with infliximab were at reduced risk of developing IMIDs (CD adjusted odds ratio [aOR], 0.52; 95% CI, 0.34-0.81 and UC aOR, 0.47; 95% CI, 0.29-0.76). Co-occurrence of IMIDs increased the risk of surgery in patients with CD that developed IMIDs after CD onset (aOR, 2.30; 95% CI, 1.46-4.20) but not in UC. CONCLUSIONS In a nationwide study of the Danish population, 22.5% of patients with IBD also had at least 1 concurrent IMID. Co-occurrence of IMIDs increased the risk of surgery in patients with CD.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Immune-mediated inflammatory diseases (IMID) are chronic and highly disabling diseases that share inflammatory sequences and immunological dysregulations. Considered as a disease in itself, the prevalence of IMID is virtually unknown. The aim of this study was to assess the prevalence of 10 selected UDI, including rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, ulcerative colitis, Crohn's disease, systemic lupus erythematosus, hidradenitis suppurativa, sarcoidosis and uveitis in Spain. METHODS cross-sectional epidemiological study of point prevalence was made. This study was carried out through a series of computerized interviews in households chosen at random in 17 autonomous communities in Spain. A structured questionnaire was used to determine the frequency of diagnosis and the concurrence of 10 IMID in the respondents and other individuals belonging to the same family nucleus. The point prevalence estimates were used and compared with the objective of determining the frequency of IMID by age, sex and communities. The data were processed using Excel 2016 (Microsoft, Redmond, WA, USA) and the SPSS V.019 system (IBM Corp. Armonk, NY, USA) for statistical analysis using the usual statistical tests in this type of studies. RESULTS Of the 7,980 respondents, 510 were diagnosed with an IMID, representing a cross-sectional study of 6.39% (95% CI: 6.02-6.76). One, two, three or more members of the family were affected in 87.2%, 7.8% and 5% of positive relatives in IMID, respectively. The most recurrent diseases were psoriasis (2.69% [95% CI: 2.32-3.06]) and rheumatic arthritis (1.07% [95% CI: 0.70-1.44]). There were differences in prevalence due to sex (p = 0.004) and age (p = 0.000). No significant differences were identified related to geographic location (p = 0.819). Attendance of at least 2 IMID was reported in 8.9% of respondents. CONCLUSIONS The overall prevalence was of the IMID studied was 6.39%, psoriasis being the most frequent with 2.69%. This study constitutes an initial step to consider IMID as an independent disease within the health system..

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although a higher risk of other immune-mediated diseases has been reported in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients, the risk factors of immune-mediated diseases development and the effect of concomitant immune-mediated diseases on outcomes remain poorly defined. AIM To determine the risk factors of incident immune-mediated diseases and the impact of comorbid immune-mediated diseases on outcomes in IBD. METHODS Using the National Health Insurance claims data for the entire Korean population, we identified 35 581 IBD patients without immune-mediated diseases and 595 IBD patients with immune-mediated diseases from 2012 to 2013, and follow-up until 2016. We selected four controls by age and sex for comparing with cases. RESULTS A total of 35 581 IBD patients without immune-mediated diseases and 142 324 matched controls without immune-mediated diseases were followed from 2014 to 2016 and of these 239 IBD patients and 357 controls developed immune-mediated disease. The overall immune-mediated diseases risk was higher in IBD patients (HR, hazard ratio, 2.47; 95% confidence interval, CI, 2.09-2.91). In a nested case-control study of the IBD cohort, adult patients aged ≥20 years and frequent hospitalisation ≥1 per year were independent risk factors for incident immune-mediated diseases, in contrast, 5-aminosalicylic acid (5-ASA) use had protective effect (odds ratio, 0.61; 95% CI, 0.41-0.90) for developing immune-mediated diseases. In addition, IBD patients with another immune-mediated disease had an increased risk of needing anti-TNF-α agent (HR, 2.40; 95% CI, 2.02-2.84) and developing acute flare (HR, 1.76; 95% CI, 1.37-2.26). CONCLUSIONS The incidence of immune-mediated diseases in IBD patients was higher than that of non-IBD population. 5-ASA use may reduce this risk.

Abstract
Purpose Growing evidence suggests asthma and Crohn’s disease commonly cooccur. However, the impact of asthma on the prognosis of Crohn’s disease is unknown. The aim of our study was to assess the effect of asthma on the need for intestinal resection in patients with Crohn’s disease while adjusting for smoking status, imputed from a smaller, secondary data set. Patients and methods Using health administrative data from a universally funded healthcare plan in Alberta, Canada, we conducted a cohort study to assess the effect of asthma on the need for surgery in patients with Crohn’s disease diagnosed between 2002 and 2008 (N=2,113). Validated algorithms were used to identify incident cases of Crohn’s disease, cooccurring asthma, and intestinal resection. The association between asthma and intestinal resection was estimated using multivariable Cox proportional hazards regression. Smoking status was imputed using a novel method using martingale residuals, derived from a data set of 485 patients enrolled in the Alberta Inflammatory Bowel Disease Consortium (2007 to 2014) who completed environmental questionnaires. All analyses were adjusted for age, sex, rural/urban status, and mean neighborhood income quintile. Results Asthma did not increase the risk of surgery in the health administrative data when not adjusting for smoking status (HR 1.03, 95% CI 0.81 to 1.29). The association remained nonsignificant after imputing smoking status in the health administrative data (HR 1.03, 95% CI 0.81 to 1.29). Conclusion Although asthma is associated with an increased risk of Crohn’s disease, co-occurring asthma is not associated with the risk of surgery in these patients. This null association persisted after adjusting for smoking status. This study described a novel method to adjust for confounding (smoking status) in time-to-event analyses, even when the confounding variable is unmeasured in health administrative data.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM Family history is the strongest risk factor for developing Crohn's disease [CD] or ulcerative colitis [UC]. We investigated whether the proximity of relationship with the affected relative and concordance for type of inflammatory bowel disease [IBD] modifies the effect of family history on phenotype and disease severity. METHOD This cross-sectional study included patients with a confirmed diagnosis of IBD in a clinical registry. Family history of IBD was assessed by a questionnaire ascertaining presence of disease in a first-first-degree, second-second-degree or distant relative. Our primary outcomes were disease phenotype as per the Montreal classification and severity measured by need for immunomodulator, biologic, or surgical therapy. Genotyping was performed on the Immunochip and faecal samples were subjected to 16S rRNA microbiome sequencing. RESULTS Our study included 2136 patients with IBD [1197 CD, 939 UC]. Just under one-third [32%] of cases ere familial IBD [17% first-degree, 21% second-degree]. Familial IBD was diagnosed at an earlier age, both in CD [26 vs 28 years, p = 0.0006] and UC [29 vs 32 years, p = 0.01]. Among CD patients, a positive family history for CD was associated with an increased risk for complicated disease in the presence of an affected family member (odds ratio [OR] 1.48, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.07-2.03). However, this effect was significant only for first-degree relatives [OR 1.82, 95% CI 1.19-2.78]. CONCLUSIONS A family history of CD in first-degree relatives was associated with complicated CD. Family history discordant for type of IBD or in distant relatives did not influence disease phenotype or natural history.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Studies on surgical procedures in patients with concomitant primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) and ulcerative colitis (UC) have mainly been restricted to single centers. The aim was to compare surgical treatment of UC with or without PSC in a nationwide study. METHODS A cohort study including all patients diagnosed with UC between 1987 and 2014 in Sweden was undertaken. The impact of PSC on the risk of colectomy, the chance of restorative surgery, and risk of failure (presence of a stoma) following restorative surgery were estimated. Survival analyses were performed using the Kaplan-Meier method and multivariable Cox regression models. RESULTS Of 49 882 UC patients, 2079 had a PSC diagnosis at the end of follow-up. The risk of colectomy was unaffected by PSC diagnosis, whereas the chance of restorative surgery was elevated in PSC-UC patients (hazard ratio [HR], 1.22; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.02-1.44). Ileorectal anastomosis (IRA) was performed in 63% of the PSC-UC patients and 43% of the non-PSC-UC-patients, and the corresponding numbers for ileal pouch anal anastomosis (IPAA) were 35% and 53%. There was no significantly increased risk of failure following restorative surgery in PSC patients (HR, 1.44; 95% CI, 0.93-2.22). In PSC-UC patients, the cumulative failure rates following an IRA at 3 and 5 years were 15% and 18%, and following an IPAA they were 11% and 18%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Presence of PSC is not associated with the risk of colectomy, whereas the chance of restorative surgery in PSC-UC patients is higher than in UC alone.
