Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIMS This analysis estimated the number of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients presenting criteria of eligibility for biological therapies in an Italian real-world setting. METHODS An observational analysis was performed on administrative databases of a sample of Local Health Units, covering 11.3% of the national population. Adult IBD patients (CD or UC) from 2010 to the end of data availability were included. Eligibility criteria for biologics were the following: Criterion A, steroid-refractory active disease; Criterion B, steroid-dependent patients; Criterion C, intolerance or contraindication to conventional therapies; Criterion D, severe relapsing disease; Criterion E (CD only), highly active CD disease and poor prognosis. RESULTS Of 26,781 IBD patient identified, 18,264 (68.2%) were treated: 3,125 (11.7%) with biologics and 15,139 (56.5%) non-biotreated. Among non-biotreated, 7,651 (28.6%) met at least one eligibility criterion for biologics, with criterion B (steroid-dependence) and criterion D (relapse) as the most represented (58-27% and 56-76%, respectively). Data reportioned to the Italian population estimated 67,635 patients as potentially eligible for biologics. CONCLUSIONS This real-world analysis showed a trend towards undertreatment with biologics in IBD patients with 28.6% being potentially eligible, suggesting that an unmet medical need still exists among the Italian general clinical practice for IBD management.

Abstract
The global burden of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is currently significant and continues to grow due to the increasing prevalence of ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD), the increasing costs of diagnosis and treatment, and the high level of disability in patients with this disease. Categories, which leads to the search for risk factors and predictors of aggressive course and extraintestinal manifestations. According to the latest data, the prevalence of UC in Russia is 16.6 per 100 000 population, the annual registered increase is 11.3%; the prevalence of CD is 5.6 per 100 000 population, and the increase is 13.7%. In the Russian population of patients with IBD, the average age of disease onset is 35.3 years for UC and 31.2 years for CD. Moreover, in 89.3% of patients with UC, it took at least 2 years to verify the diagnosis, and in CD, within 2 years from the onset of clinical symptoms, the diagnosis was established in only 72.6% of patients. One of the dominant characteristics of IBD is its multisystem nature, which leads to the development of extraintestinal manifestations (ECM), which can be observed in 50-60% of patients, while up to 25% of patients with IBD have several EMC and the most common variants are joint lesions. A higher frequency of extraintestinal manifestations is observed in CD (up to 45% of patients), in female patients, in smokers and with a longer duration of the disease. To predict clinical remission, the level of fecal calprotectin and CRP, the need for glucocorticosteroids are important, to predict endoscopic remission - the level of fecal calprotectin, and to predict histological remission, an endoscopic Schroeder index value of ≤1 is important. The absolute risk of developing colorectal cancer in IBD remains relatively low, ranging from 1.1 to 5.4% after 20 years of disease. The main risk factors for IBD are total intestinal damage, high inflammatory activity, the stricturing phenotype of CD and the presence of primary sclerosing cholangitis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aims to investigate the association of ulcerative colitis (UC) with all-cause dementia and assess differences in those with and without a total colectomy. DESIGN, SETTING AND PARTICIPANTS This Swedish prospective register-based study comprised 4.8 million individuals aged at least 59 years between 1964 and 2018 with the linkage of several Swedish national registers. PRIMARY AND SECONDARY OUTCOME MEASURES Individuals with dementia were defined according to International Classification of Diseases diagnostic codes and Anatomical Therapeutic Classification codes for medication prescriptions. Fitting Cox hazards models, the risk of developing all-cause dementia in individuals with and without UC was estimated. Further, we compared the risk of all-cause dementia among those with and without a colectomy. RESULTS Among 4 821 488 individuals (52.6% females) followed for 84.1 million person-years between 1964 and 2018, the incidence rate of all-cause dementia was 63.90 (63.73-64.07) events per 10 000 person-years in individuals without UC, 94.80 (92.04-97.64) among those with UC, 95.01 (92.25-97.86) in those with UC but without colectomy and 63.42 (40.92-98.31) in those with UC and a colectomy. Adjusted Cox models showed an increased all-cause dementia risk in individuals with UC (HR 1.07, 95% CI 1.04 to 1.10). We found no differences between unexposed individuals and those with UC and a colectomy (HR 0.89, 95% CI 0.57 to 1.38). CONCLUSION The findings are consistent with previous evidence suggesting a slightly increased dementia risk among individuals with UC. This study provided no evidence of further risk increase of dementia among those who had a colectomy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Childlessness and infertility represent a frequent and important issue in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients. Nevertheless, until now epidemiological data remains scarce. Therefore, main objectives of this study were to evaluate the rate of childlessness and the cumulative probability of reproduction in female and male IBD patients within the Swiss Inflammatory Bowel Disease Cohort Study (SIBDCS), a large prospective multicenter nationwide cohort. METHODS Prospectively collected data of SIBDCS was used, comprising more than 3,300 patients with Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC). We analyzed the following groups of patients: 1) female IBD patients aged ≥40 years and diagnosed before age of 30 years with at least one follow-up, 2) female IBD patients who reported actively trying to conceive, with IBD diagnosed <35 years and with age at enrolment <45 years (longitudinal observation), with at least one follow-up, and 3) childless males who actively tried to conceive. RESULTS A total of 1,412 female patients from the SIBDCS [843 CD, 539 UC, 30 indeterminate colitis (IC)] with available data were included in our analyses. Out of those 184 females (70.1% CD and 29.9 % UC) were aged ≥ 40 years and have been diagnosed with IBD before the age of 30 years. Among these, 184 women 32.1% were childless. The portion of childless females (36.4%) was significantly higher in CD vs. UC (36.4% vs. 21.8%; p=0.026), equaling a relative risk of childlessness of 1.7 in CD vs. UC. and higher than in the Swiss general population (21%). The mean number of children per female patient was 1.32 (median 1, min 0, max 6), per female with CD 1.12 (median 1, min 0, max 4), per female with UC/IC 1.78 (median 2, min 0, max 6; P=0.001). The longitudinal analysis of female IBD patients trying to conceive revealed that one out of two women neither were pregnant nor had born a child five years after first trying to conceive. CONCLUSIONS The rate of childlessness in females with CD is higher compared to the general Swiss population, whereas it is similar in women with UC. Moreover, the mean number of children is lower in CD than in UC. Females with CD remain more often childless compared to their UC counterparts. Although the exact underlying mechanisms are largely unknown, this discrepancy should alert healthcare professionals treating CD patients to actively address this topic.

Abstract
PURPOSE After the COVID-19 pandemic, many challenges arose regarding the impact of this disease on people with ulcerative colitis. The aims of this study were to estimate the prevalence, severity, and death consequences of COVID-19 in patients with ulcerative colitis using a systematic review and meta-analysis. METHODS This study was conducted using a systematic review and meta-analysis method in the field of prevalence, severity, and clinical consequences of COVID-19 in people with ulcerative colitis worldwide. The search was conducted in international scientific databases, such as Web of Science, PubMed, Scopus, Cochrane Library, and Google Scholar, from the beginning of 2020 to October 2023. The quality of the eligible studies was assessed using the Strobe and Newcastle Ottawa checklists. The data were analyzed using a fixed-effects model in the meta-analysis. Subgroup analysis and meta-regression were performed using STATA version 17. RESULTS Nineteen studies with a sample size of 224,520 patients were included in this meta-analysis. The results showed that, in COVID-19 patients with ulcerative colitis, the prevalence of hospitalization, death, COVID-19 severity, and mortality rate in severe patients was 54% (95% CI, 27-80%), 10% (95% CI, 4-16%), 20% (95% CI, 8-34%), 63% (95% CI, 46-80%), respectively. In comparison with the general population, the odds ratio (OR) of hospitalization in patients due to COVID-19 was OR = 1.28 (95% CI, 1.19-1.38, P < 0.001), and the chance of severe COVID-19 was OR = 1.30 (95% CI, 1.22-1.53, P < 0.001). CONCLUSION The probability of contracting the severe type of COVID-19 and hospitalization in patients with ulcerative colitis was higher than in the general population.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic inflammatory disorder of the gastrointestinal tract with an increasing worldwide incidence. IBD is frequently diagnosed during childhood in the adolescent period of ongoing growth and development, and it can affect patients' linear growth, puberty, nutrition, and bone health. Therefore, its treatment and monitoring are critical to prevent secondary outcomes. However, few studies have highlighted the association between pediatric IBD and skeletal outcomes in Asian populations. We aimed to identify the prevalence and risk factors for low bone mineral density (BMD) in Korean children and adolescents with newly diagnosed IBD. Patients aged 10-18 years diagnosed with either Crohn's disease (CD) or ulcerative colitis (UC) who underwent lumbar spine bone mineral density (LSBMD) and femoral bone mineral density (FBMD) analyses via dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry at the time of IBD diagnosis were included. Low BMD was considered when the age- and sex-matched BMD Z-score was <-1.0. The LSBMD and FBMD Z-scores were correlated with clinical parameters, including general characteristics, anthropometry, and IBD-associated laboratory markers. Regression analyses were performed to identify the risk factors for low BMD. Although the general characteristics between CD (n = 42) and UC (n = 9) groups did not differ, the mean Z-scores of LSBMD and FBMD of the 51 subjects were -0.11 ± 1.24 and -0.58 ± 1.38, respectively. Furthermore, 7.8% and 18% of the study subjects had LSBMD and FBMD Z-scores < -2.0, whereas more than 50% had scores of 0--1.0. Among the clinical factors, body mass index (BMI) Z-score, duration of clinical manifestations, and serum alanine aminotransferase and selenium levels were associated with LSBMD Z-scores in the final multivariate regression analyses. Odds ratios of BMI < -2.0 standard deviation for low LSBMD and FBMD Z-scores were 31.97 and 41.45, respectively. A BMI Z-score < -0.93 was determined as the best cut-off for predicting low BMD. In newly diagnosed pediatric IBD, a substantial number of children are likely to have low BMD in prior to initial treatment while lower BMI, longer duration of clinical manifestation, and higher selenium concentration could affect initial BMD status. Routine bone health surveillance from initial IBD diagnosis throughout the treatment's completion is recommended for preventing the early development of secondary osteoporosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) have an impact on the gut microbiome. We investigated whether increased use of PPIs was associated with a diagnosis of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). METHODS The University of Manitoba IBD Epidemiology Database includes all Manitobans diagnosed with IBD between 1984 and 2018 with age-, sex-, and geography-matched control subjects and comprehensive prescription drug data from April 1995. Subjects were considered to be users if they received 2 PPI prescriptions. We assessed PPI prescriptions prediagnosis and for 3 years postdiagnosis of IBD. The absolute and relative rates were calculated and compared for PPI use pre- and post-IBD diagnosis. RESULTS A total of 5920 subjects were diagnosed with IBD after April 1996. Rates of PPI use in control subjects increased gradually from 1.5% to 6.5% over 15 years. Persons with IBD had a higher rate of PPI use, peaking up to 17% within 1 year of IBD diagnosis with a rate ratio (RR) of 3.1 (95% confidence interval [CI], 2.9-3.3). Furthermore, persons with Crohn's disease (RR, 4.2; 95% CI, 3.7-4.6) were more likely to have been PPI users prediagnosis than persons with ulcerative colitis (RR, 2.4; 95% CI, 2.2-2.7). Important predictors of increased PPI use were older age, year of data collection, and Crohn's disease diagnosis. CONCLUSIONS Persons with IBD have higher PPI use preceding their diagnosis. Possibly, the use of a PPI alters the gut microbiome, increasing the risk for IBD diagnosis; or persons with IBD have increased rates of dyspepsia, warranting PPI use; or some IBD symptoms are treated with PPIs whether warranted or not.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is sparsely investigated in Arctic populations. The aim of this study was to estimate the prevalence of ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD) in Greenland. METHODS Cross-sectional nationwide data on demography, anthropometry, biochemistry, and pharmacotherapy were extracted from the electronic medical records in Greenland. Diagnoses of UC and CD were based on International Classification of Diseases-Tenth Revision and International Classification of Primary Care-Second Edition coding and treatment with mesalazine. Data from Statistics Greenland were used for prevalence calculations. RESULTS In total, 254 patients in Greenland experienced IBD, with 214 cases of UC and 40 cases of CD. The overall IBD prevalence was 0.45%, distributed as 0.38% with UC and 0.07% with CD. The IBD prevalence was similar across the 5 regions of Greenland. However, a higher prevalence was observed in the region main towns with the largest populations (0.53%) compared with the small towns along the coastline (0.29%). UC patients were prescribed mesalazine treatment with a frequency of 78%. Furthermore, 10% of all IBD patients received treatment with nonspecific immunomodulators and 7% received biologics. CONCLUSIONS This study estimates the prevalence and uncovers characteristics of IBD in Greenland. Although CD may be underdiagnosed or less prevalent, the overall prevalence of IBD in Greenland parallels Scandinavian countries and North America. These results boost the knowledge on autoimmune diseases in arctic populations and may guide clinicians in their management of IBD in Greenland. Furthermore, the results may encourage research in IBD across the Arctic regions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Few studies evaluate the epidemiology and risk factors of Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI) in Asian patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). We investigated the year-end prevalence, cumulative incidence and risk factors of CDI in Asian patients with IBD using a large-scale population-based cohort in Korea. METHODS Using the National Health Insurance Service database, we identified patients with IBD and sex- and age-matched controls without IBD between 2008 and 2018. The year-end prevalence and cumulative incidence of CDI were compared among patients with Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC) with controls. The risk factors for CDI were evaluated. RESULTS Among the 54,836 patients with IBD and 109,178 controls, CDI occurred in 293 patients with IBD and 87 controls. The annual year-end prevalence of CDI in patients with IBD increased from 8.6/10,000 persons in 2008 to 22.3/10,000 persons in 2018. The risk of CDI was higher in both patients with CD and UC than that in the matched controls (hazard ratio [HR], 7.285; 95% confidence interval [CI], 5.388-9.851; P < 0.001 and HR, 7.487; 95% CI, 5.796-9.670; P < 0.001, respectively). Among patients with IBD, the risk factors for CDI included older age, female sex, high Charlson comorbidity index score, and IBD-related medications including oral 5-aminosalicylic acid, immunomodulatory agents, biologics, and steroids used for > 90 days. CONCLUSION The risk of CDI in Korean patients with IBD was approximately seven times higher than that in controls without IBD, and the annual year-end prevalence of CDI continuously increased from 2008 to 2018.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION It remains unclear whether inflammatory bowel disease is associated with long-term risk of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and acute kidney injury (AKI) in the general population. METHODS A total of 417,302 participants, including 2,940 patients with ulcerative colitis and 1,261 patients with Crohn's disease, without previous CKD and AKI at baseline (2006-2010) from the UK Biobank were included. The study outcomes included incident CKD and AKI, ascertained by self-report data and data linkage with primary care, hospital admissions, and death registry records. Analysis was conducted in 2022. RESULTS During a median follow-up of 12.5 years, 13,564 and 14,331 participants developed CKD and AKI, respectively. Compared with the hazard ratio for non-inflammatory bowel diseases, the hazard ratios for CKD and AKI related to inflammatory bowel diseases were 1.57 (95% CI=1.37, 1.79) and 1.96 (95% CI=1.74, 2.20) after adjustments for age, sex, and race and were 1.32 (95% CI=1.15, 1.51) and 1.70 (95% CI=1.51, 1.91) after further adjustments for biological, behavioral, and socioeconomic factors in addition to mental health and self-rated health. Similar results were found for patients with Crohn's disease (adjusted hazard ratio=1.38 (95% CI=1.09, 1.75) for CKD and 1.62 [95% CI=1.30, 2.02] for AKI) and those with ulcerative colitis (adjusted hazard ratio=1.29 (95% CI=1.09, 1.51) for CKD and 1.71 [95% CI=1.49, 1.97] for AKI) in the fully adjusted models. Genetic risks of kidney diseases did not significantly affect the association of inflammatory bowel disease with incident CKD and AKI (both p-interactions>0.05). The association between inflammatory bowel disease and the risk of incident CKD (p-interaction=0.010) and AKI (p-interaction<0.001) were stronger in younger participants than in older participants. CONCLUSIONS Inflammatory bowel disease was associated with higher risks for CKD and AKI, independent of genetic risks of kidney diseases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aims to investigate the trends in UC surgery in New South Wales (NSW) at a population level. METHODS A retrospective data linkage study of the NSW population was performed. Patients of any age with a diagnosis of UC who underwent a total abdominal colectomy (TAC) ± proctectomy between Jul-2001 and Jun-2019 were included. The age adjusted population rate was calculated using Australian Bureau of Statistics data. Multivariable linear regression modelled the trend of TAC rates, and assessed the effect of infliximab (listed on the Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme for UC in Apr-2014). RESULTS A total of 1365 patients underwent a TAC ± proctectomy (mean age 47.0 years (±18.6), 59% Male). Controlling for differences between age groups, the annual rate of UC TACs decreased by 2.4% each year (95% CI 1.4%-3.4%) over the 18-year period from 1.30/100000 (2002) to 0.84/100000 (2019). An additional incremental decrease in the rate of TACs was observed after 2014 (OR 0.83, 95% CI 0.69-1.00). There was no change in the proportion of TACs performed emergently over the study period (OR 1.02, 95% CI 0.998-1.04). The odds of experiencing any perioperative surgical complication (aOR 1.54, 95% CI 1.01-2.33, P = 0.043), and requiring ICU admission (aOR 1.85, 95% CI 1.24-2.76, P = 0.003) significantly increased in 2014-2019 compared to 2002-2007. CONCLUSIONS The rate of TACs for UC has declined over the past two decades. This rate decrease may have been further influenced by the introduction of biologics. Higher rates of complications and ICU admissions in the biologic era may indicate poorer patient physiological status at the time of surgery.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The incidence of UC has increased yearly. Many studies have suggested that patients with ulcerative colitis have abnormal vitamin D levels. A systematic review and meta-analysis were conducted to investigate the association between vitamin D levels and ulcerative colitis. METHODS We searched PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang and China Science and Technology Journal Database (VIP) from inception to December 2022. We included case-control studies comparing the differences in vitamin D levels between patients with ulcerative colitis and healthy populations. Meta-analysis was performed using Review Manager5.4, Stata17.0 and other software. RESULTS Sixteen eligible observational studies were selected from 473 articles involving 2234 subjects, and they included 987 patients with ulcerative colitis and 1247 controls. The results showed that the serum level of vitamin D in patients with ulcerative colitis was significantly lower than that in healthy controls (SMD = -0.83, 95% CI: -1.18, -0.48). Vitamin D deficiency was reported in five studies. The prevalence of vitamin D deficiency was significantly higher in the ulcerative colitis group than in the healthy control group (OR = 1.90, 95% CI: 1.38, 2.62). CONCLUSION Serum vitamin D levels were significantly lower in patients with ulcerative colitis than in healthy controls.

Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate the prospective association of frailty status with the long-term risk of elderly-onset IBD in a large prospective cohort. METHODS Participants free of IBD and cancer at enrollment from the UK Biobank cohort were included. Baseline pre-frail and frail status was measured by Fried phenotype including weight loss, exhaustion, low grip strength, low physical activity and slow walking pace, defined as meeting one or two criteria and meeting three or more criteria. Primary outcome was elderly-onset IBD, including elderly-onset ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD). Multivariable Cox regression was conducted to examine the related associations. RESULTS Overall, 417,253 participants (aged 56.18 ± 8.09 years) were included. Of whom, 19,243 (4.6 %) and 188,219 (45.1 %) were considered frail and pre-frail, respectively. During a median of 12.4 years follow-up, 1503 elderly-onset IBD cases (1001 UC, 413 CD, and 89 IBD-Unclassified) were identified. Compared with non-frail, individuals with frail (HR=1.40, 95 %CI: 1.13-1.73) and pre-frail (HR=1.15, 1.03-1.28) showed significantly higher risk of elderly-onset IBD after multivariable adjustment (Ptrend<0.001). The positive association was more evident regarding risk of elderly-onset CD (HR=2.16, 1.49-3.13 for frail; HR=1.49,1.20-1.85 for pre-frail; Ptrend<0.001). Sensitivity analyses and subgroup analyses according to age, gender and body mass index (BMI) demonstrated similar results. CONCLUSIONS Frailty and pre-frailty are associated with increased risk of elderly-onset IBD, particularly elderly-onset CD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Limited studies have evaluated the burden of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) in China. We aimed to estimate the incidence of IBD including ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD) in urban China. METHODS The national urban incidence in 2016 was calculated based on urban basic medical insurance from 2012 to 2016 in China by using a 4-year washout period. The incidence in Yinzhou District estimated from the Yinzhou electronic health care record database was used to test the accuracy of the results from insurance data. RESULTS A total of 95,555 patients with IBD were identified. The incidence in 2016 was 10.04 (95% confidence interval, 6.95-13.71) per 100,000 person-years. The incidence rates of both UC and CD were higher among males than among females. There was a sharp increase in UC incidence before the age of 30 years and stabilization in later years (50-79 years old), whereas CD incidence peaked at 30 to 34 years old and experienced decline subsequently. The incidence of UC was much greater than that of CD, with a UC-to-CD incidence ratio of 12.61. The results from the Yinzhou database confirmed these results. CONCLUSIONS This study is the first to draw a portrait of the distribution of IBD in urban China. The difference in IBD incidence between urban China and other countries suggests an association between the IBD burden and industrialization process. The accelerating urbanization and industrialization process in China, a country with a population of 1.4 billion people, will likely increase the burden of IBD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Epidemiologic evidence suggests that Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) and multiple sclerosis (MS) share a common set of risk factors with Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC). It was hypothesized that such shared risk factors would lead to clustering of the 4 diagnoses in the same patients. METHODS All patients with HL, MS, CD, or UC were identified in the veterans population from 2016-2020 and the Medicare population from 1986 to 1989. In a case-control study, the observed concurrences amongst these 4 diagnoses were compared with their expected frequencies in the overall veterans or Medicare population during the same time period by calculating odds ratios (OR) with their 95% confidence intervals (CI). RESULTS The study included 6 million veterans and 35 million Medicare patients. In the veterans population, inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) was significantly associated with a concurrent diagnosis of HL (OR: 1.40, 95% CI: 1.15-1.71) and MS (1.34, 1.19-1.50). In the Medicare population, IBD was also significantly associated with HL (1.84, 1.07-3.17) and MS (2.31, 1.59-3.35). Similar trends were observed in CD or UC when analyzed separately in both datasets. In the veterans population, adjustment for the potentially confounding influence of ethnicity, sex, and age left all OR values largely unaffected and statistically significant. CONCLUSION The concurrence of IBD with HL or MS could reflect on a common pathway in the etiology or pathogenesis of these 4 diseases.

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 Observational studies have suggested an association between lipid-lowering drugs and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) risk. This study aimed to assess the causal influence of lipid-lowering agents on IBD risk using Mendelian randomization analysis. METHOD In a population of 173,082 individuals of European ancestry, 55 single-nucleotide polymorphisms were identified as instrumental variables for 6 lipid-lowering drug targets (HMGCR, NPC1LC, PCSK9, LDLR, CETP and APOB). Summary statistics for the genome-wide association study of IBD, ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD) were obtained from the FinnGen consortium, Program in Complex Trait Genomics and UK Biobank. Inverse-variance weighted was employed as the primary MR method, and odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals were reported as the results. Sensitivity analyses using conventional MR methods were conducted to assess result robustness. RESULTS Gene-proxied inhibition of Niemann-Pick C1-like 1 (NPC1L1) was associated with an increased IBD risk (OR [95% CI]: 2.31 [1.38, 3.85]; p = .001), particularly in UC (OR [95% CI]: 2.40 [1.21, 4.74], p = .012), but not in CD. This finding was replicated in the validation cohort. Additionally, gene-proxied inhibition of low-density lipoprotein receptor was associated with reduced IBD (OR [95% CI]: .72 [.60, .87], p < .001) and UC risk (OR [95% CI]: .74 [.59, .92], p = .006), although this result was not replicated in the validation cohort. Other drug targets did not show significant associations with IBD, UC or CD risk. CONCLUSION Inhibition of the lipid-lowering drug-target NPC1L1 leads to an increased IBD risk, mainly in the UC population.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel diseases (Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis) are chronic immune-mediated diseases of the gastrointestinal tract that are associated with many extraintestinal manifestations (EIMs). EIMs can affect nearly any organ system and are associated with impaired quality of life. This issue of The Clinical and Translational Gastroenterology includes a cross-sectional study of EIMs within the GETAID cohort, one of the largest to date reporting on the prevalence, risk factors, and predictors of remission for EIMs. We discuss how these results fit with existing literature and how clinicians may incorporate these insights into practice.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In recent years, an increasing prevalence of obesity in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) has been observed. However, only a few studies have focused on the impact of overweight and obesity on IBD-related disability. AIMS To identify the factors associated with obese and overweight patients with IBD, including IBD-related disability. PATIENTS AND METHODS In this cross-sectional study, we included 1704 consecutive patients with IBD in 42 centres affiliated with the Groupe d'Etude Therapeutique des Affections Inflammatoires du tube Digestif (GETAID) using a 4-page questionnaire. Factors associated with obesity and overweight were assessed using univariate and multivariate analyses (odds ratios (ORs) are provided with 95% confidence intervals). RESULTS The prevalence rates of overweight and obesity were 24.1% and 12.2%, respectively. Multivariable analyses were stratified by age, sex, type of IBD, clinical remission and age at diagnosis of IBD. Overweight was significantly associated with male sex (OR = 0.52, 95% CI [0.39-0.68], p < 0.001), age (OR = 1.02, 95% CI [1.01-1.03], p < 0.001) and body image subscore (OR = 1.15, 95% CI [1.10-1.20], p < 0.001) (Table 2). Obesity was significantly associated with age (OR = 1.03, 95% CI [1.02-1.04], p < 0.001), joint pain subscore (OR = 1.08, 95% CI [1.02-1.14], p < 0.001) and body image subscore (OR = 1.25, 95% CI [1.19-1.32], p < 0.001) (Table 3). CONCLUSION The increasing prevalence of overweight and obesity in patients with IBD is associated with age and poorer body image. A holistic approach to IBD patient care should be encouraged to improve IBD-related disability and to prevent rheumatological and cardiovascular complications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) prevalence is rising globally; however, indigenous groups are underrepresented. Waikato, New Zealand, is a large region with a high proportion of Māori patients. In Canterbury in 2006, 1% of patients with IBD were Māori. We investigated the incidence and prevalence of IBD in Waikato over 10 years. METHODS This was a retrospective cohort study assessing the incidence and prevalence of IBD between 2009 and 2019. The search strategy included pathology, radiology, Provation, ICD-10 coding and private clinics, using the keywords: Crohn's, Crohn, ileitis, colitis, ulcerative, inflammatory bowel disease and IBD. Collected data included current age and age at diagnosis, sex, ethnicity and IBD subtype. RESULTS The IBD point prevalence on 31 December 2019 was 375.6/100 000 compared with 293.6/100 000 in 2010, increasing by 27.9%. The annualised incidence was static from 21.5/100 000 in 2010 to 17.5/100 000 in 2019. Female patients comprised 53.3% of the cohort. Ulcerative colitis (UC) made up 54.2% of cases, 43.8% had Crohn disease (CD) and 2.0% had indeterminate colitis. Sixty (3.7%) patients identified as Māori. In non-Māori patients, the average age at diagnosis was 36.2 years, compared with 33.0 years in Māori patients (P = 0.11). In Māori patients, 53.3% had UC and 45.0% had CD. Thirty-five percent of Māori patients lived 50 km or more from base hospital, compared with 41% of non-Māori patients (P = 0.33). CONCLUSION IBD prevalence has increased substantially; however, the incidence has remained static. Māori IBD rates are higher than previously reported, in keeping with international indigenous trends. Māori patients were diagnosed at a similar age as non-Māori patients, with similar disease subtypes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Although dosing regimens of targeted therapies (TT) for ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD) are guided by market authorizations and clinical guidelines, little is known about clinical guideline adherence or outcomes in patients receiving escalated doses of TT due to lack of response. This real-world study explored the prevalence of dose escalation and compared outcomes between patients receiving standard and escalated TT doses. METHODS Data were from the 2020-2021 Adelphi Disease Specific Programme for inflammatory bowel disease, a cross-sectional survey of gastroenterologists and their UC and CD patients across five European countries and the US. Physicians provided retrospective data collection of patient demographics, clinical characteristics, treatment history, and satisfaction; patients reported quality-of-life and work productivity. Patients were grouped by TT maintenance dose; standard and escalated dose groups were compared. Outcomes were adjusted for time on current TT and severity at current TT initiation using regression analyses. RESULTS Of 1,241 UC and 1,477 CD patients, 19.1% and 24.1%, respectively, received escalated TT doses. Despite escalation, a substantial proportion of patients had not achieved remission, had moderate or severe disease activity, or were flaring. Most physicians were not fully satisfied with treatment in the escalated dose group and were more likely to switch patients to another treatment regimen than patients on standard dose. CONCLUSION Dose escalation is not always an effective approach to resolve inadequate or loss of response in UC and CD, highlighting a need for more therapeutic options or alternative treatment strategies in patients unresponsive to TT.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Anxiety is common in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), including those with ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD); however, the causal relationship between IBD and anxiety remains unknown. AIM To investigate the causal relationship between IBD and anxiety by using bidirectional Mendelian randomization analysis. METHODS Single nucleotide polymorphisms retrieved from genome-wide association studies (GWAS) of the European population were identified as genetic instrument variants. GWAS statistics for individuals with UC (6968 patients and 20464 controls; adults) and CD (5956 patients and 14927 controls; adults) were obtained from the International IBD Genetics Consortium. GWAS statistics for individuals with anxiety were obtained from the Psychiatric Genomics Consortium (2565 patients and 14745 controls; adults) and FinnGen project (20992 patients and 197800 controls; adults), respectively. Inverse-variance weighted was applied to assess the causal relationship, and the results were strengthened by heterogeneity, pleiotropy and leave-one-out analyses. RESULTS Genetic susceptibility to UC was associated with an increased risk of anxiety [odds ratio: 1.071 (95% confidence interval: 1.009-1.135), P = 0.023], while genetic susceptibility to CD was not associated with anxiety. Genetic susceptibility to anxiety was not associated with UC or CD. No heterogeneity or pleiotropy was observed, and the leave-one-out analysis excluded the potential influence of a particular variant. CONCLUSION This study revealed that genetic susceptibility to UC was significantly associated with anxiety and highlighted the importance of early screening for anxiety in patients with UC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Patients with inflammatory bowel disease have increased risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular [CV] disease [ASCVD]. Tofacitinib is an oral Janus kinase inhibitor for the treatment of ulcerative colitis [UC]. We report major adverse CV events [MACE] in the UC OCTAVE programme, stratified by baseline CV risk. METHODS Rates of MACE were analysed by baseline [first tofacitinib exposure] CV risk profile: prior ASCVD, or 10-year ASCVD risk categories [low, borderline, intermediate, high]. RESULTS Of 1157 patients [2814.4 patient-years of exposure; ≤7.8 years' tofacitinib treatment], 4% had prior ASCVD and 83% had no prior ASCVD and low-borderline baseline 10-year ASCVD risk. Eight [0.7%] patients developed MACE; one had prior ASCVD. Incidence rates [unique patients with events/100 patient-years of exposure; 95% confidence intervals] for MACE were: 0.95 [0.02-5.27] in patients with prior ASCVD; and 1.81 [0.05-10.07], 1.54 [0.42-3.95], 0.00 [0.00-2.85], and 0.09 [0.01-0.32] in patients without prior ASCVD and with high, intermediate, -borderline, and low baseline 10-year ASCVD risk, respectively. For the 5/7 patients with MACE and without prior ASCVD, 10-year ASCVD risk scores were numerically higher [>1%] prior to MACE versus at baseline, primarily due to increasing age. CONCLUSIONS Most patients receiving tofacitinib in the UC OCTAVE programme had low baseline 10-year ASCVD risk. MACE were more frequent in patients with prior ASCVD and higher baseline CV risk. This analysis demonstrates potential associations between baseline CV risk and MACE in patients with UC, suggesting CV risk should be assessed individually in clinical practice.

Abstract
Understanding the biological changes that precede a diagnosis of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) could facilitate pre-emptive interventions, including risk factor modification, but this pre-clinical phase of disease remains poorly characterized. Using measurements from 17 hematological and biochemical parameters taken up to 10 years before diagnosis in over 20,000 IBD patients and population controls, we address this at massive scale. We observe widespread significant changes in multiple biochemical and hematological parameters that occur up to 8 years before diagnosis of Crohn's disease (CD) and up to 3 years before diagnosis of ulcerative colitis. These changes far exceed previous expectations regarding the length of this pre-diagnostic phase, revealing an opportunity for earlier intervention, especially in CD. In summary, using a nationwide, case-control dataset-obtained from the Danish registers-we provide a comprehensive characterization of the hematological and biochemical changes that occur in the pre-clinical phase of IBD.

Abstract
The pandemic of COVID-19 was a major public health events and had a deeply impact on the healthcare acquired by patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). The purpose of this study was to evaluate the long-term impacts on healthcare service in Chinese IBD patients under the dynamic zero-COVID strategy. The study was performed in the Inflammatory Bowel Disease Quality of Care Centers in mainland China in 2021. The data about the healthcare was collected by a 44-item questionnaire. Totally 463 were from ulcerative colitis (UC) patients and 538 from Crohn's disease (CD) patients were included in the study. The pandemic impacted 37.5% patients on their treatment, and the biggest problem was unable to follow up timely (77.9%). There was a significant increase in healthcare costs in CD (P < 0.001) and no significant change in UC (P = 0.14) after the outbreak. Both UC and CD had an increase in the frequency of outpatient visits (UC 5.07 vs. 4.54, P = 0.001; CD 6.30 vs. 5.76, P = 0.002), and hospitalizations (UC 1.30 vs. 1.02, P < 0.001; CD 3.55 vs. 2.78, P < 0.001). The hospitalization rate in UC reduced slightly (40.2% vs. 42.8%, P = 0.423) after the outbreak, but it significantly increased in CD (75.8% vs. 67.8%, P = 0.004). The rate of biologics had significant increased (UC 11.2% vs. 17.7%, P = 0.005; CD 53.2% vs. 71.0%, P < 0.001). Besides, the proportion of people using telemedicine also increased from 41.6% to 55.1% (P < 0.001). However, 82.8% patients still preferred face-to-face visits. Recurrent outbreaks and the regular pandemic prevention and control policy had a long-term impact on medical care service for IBD patients. The preferred mode of healthcare was still face-to-face visit. It will be a long way to go in the construction of telemedicine in China.

Abstract
Background Previous studies have shown a coexistence phenomenon between systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), but the causal relationship between them is still unclear. Therefore, we conducted a two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis using publicly available summary statistics data to evaluate whether there was a causal relationship between the two diseases. Methods Summary statistics for SLE and IBD were downloaded from the Open Genome-Wide Association Study and the International Inflammatory Bowel Disease Genetics Consortium. European and East Asian populations were included in this MR work. We adopted a series of methods to select instrumental variables that are closely related to SLE and IBD. To make the conclusion more reliable, we applied a variety of different analysis methods, among which the inverse variance-weighted (IVW) method was the main method. In addition, heterogeneity, pleiotropy, and sensitivity were assessed to make the conclusions more convincing. Results In the European population, a negative causal relationship was observed between SLE and overall IBD (OR = 0.94; 95% CI = 0.90, 0.98; P < 0.004) and ulcerative colitis (UC) (OR = 0.93; 95% CI = 0.88, 0.98; P = 0.006). After removing outliers with Mendelian Randomization Pleiotropy RESidual Sum and Outlier (MR-PRESSO), the results remained consistent with IVW. However, there was no causal relationship between SLE and Crohn's disease. In the East Asian population, no causal relationship was found between SLE and IBD. Conclusion Our results found that genetic susceptibility to SLE was associated with lower overall IBD risk and UC risk in European populations. In contrast, no association between SLE and IBD was found in East Asian populations. This work might enrich the previous research results, and it may provide some references for research in the future.

Abstract
Background and Objectives: Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a condition characterized by chronic intestinal inflammation. We can identify two major forms: Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC). One of the extraintestinal manifestations of IBD is nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). IBD and NAFLD share common pathogenetic mechanisms. Ultrasound (US) examination is the most commonly used imaging method for the diagnosis of NAFLD. This cross-sectional observational retrospective study aimed to evaluate the US prevalence of NAFLD in IBD patients and their clinical features. Materials and Methods: A total of 143 patients with IBD underwent hepatic US and were divided into two different groups according to the presence or absence of NAFLD. Subsequently, new exclusion criteria for dysmetabolic comorbidities (defined as plus) were applied. Results: The US prevalence of NAFLD was 23% (21% in CD and 24% in UC, respectively). Most IBD-NAFLD patients were male and older and showed significantly higher values for body mass index, waist circumference, disease duration, and age at onset than those without NAFLD. IBD-NAFLD patients showed a significantly higher percentage of stenosing phenotype and left-side colitis. Regarding metabolic features, IBD-NAFLD patients showed a significantly higher percentage of hypertension and IBD plus dysmetabolic criteria. Also, higher values of alanine aminotransferase and triglycerides and lower levels of high-density lipoproteins are reported in these patients. Conclusions: We suggest performing liver US screening in subjects affected by IBD to detect NAFLD earlier. Also, patients with NAFLD present several metabolic comorbidities that would fall within the new definition of metabolic-associated fatty liver disease. Finally, we encourage larger longitudinal studies, including healthy controls, to provide further confirmation of our preliminary data.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Retrospective data have linked adult physical activity (PA) to reduced risk of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). We aimed to prospectively examine the association of PA and screen time (ST) in childhood with later risk of IBD, for which data are scarce. METHODS Using two population-based birth cohorts (All Babies in Southeast Sweden [ABIS] and Norwegian Mother, Father, and Child Cohort Study [MoBa]), we retrieved parent-reported data on PA and ST degree at ages 3 and 8 years. Data were modelled as binary (high vs. low) and numerical (hours/day) exposures. Inflammatory bowel disease was defined as ≥2 diagnostic records in national health registers. Cox regression estimated hazard ratios adjusted for potential confounding from parental IBD, country of origin, education, and smoking habits (Adjusted hazard ratio (aHR)). Our 8-year analyses included a 2-year lag period to reduce the risk of reverse causation. Cohort-specific estimates were pooled using random-effects model. RESULT Among 65,978 participants from ABIS (n = 8810) and MoBa (n = 57,168) with available data, 266 developed IBD. At 3 years, children with high versus low PA had an aHR of 1.12 for IBD (95%CI = 0.87-1.43); high versus low ST showed an aHR of 0.91 (95%CI = 0.71-1.17). Conversely, at 8 years, high versus low ST was associated with increased risk of later IBD (aHR = 1.51; 95%CI = 1.02-2.25), but PA at 8 years, was not linked to IBD (aHR = 1.19; 95%CI = 0.80-1.76). Subtype-specific analyses for Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis did not differ appreciably. CONCLUSION Acknowledging possible confounding variables, children with high versus low ST at 8 years were at increased risk of IBD. In contrast, PA degree was not linked to IBD at any age category.

Abstract
Background The aim of the observational, prospective study was to validate a novel, nonverbal assessment tool for perceived disease burden-Pictorial Representation of Illness and Self-Measure (PRISM)-in ulcerative colitis (UC) against established patient health questionnaires. The cumulative burden of patients recently diagnosed (<3 years) with UC was also evaluated. Methods "ICONIC" - Understanding the impact of ulcerative colitis and its associated disease burden on patients - was a noninterventional, multicountry, multicenter study performed in a 2-year follow-up format in adult patients with recently diagnosed UC in 33 countries, regardless of disease severity or treatment. Data collection consisted of five visits, scheduled at approximately 6-month intervals. For the current analysis, patient data from Saudi Arabia and Kuwait were evaluated. The collected data comprised demographics, disease-related data, UC treatment, and healthcare resources, as well as physician- and patient-assessed quality-of-life and disease burden questionnaires. Correlations between selected questionnaire scores were performed using Spearman's rho. Results Disease severity at baseline and throughout the study was slightly less favorable in this country analysis compared with the global study cohort. Disease burden was assessed by PRISM and improved within 24 months. Conclusions The detected moderate correlation between PRISM and other assessment methods supports the validity of PRISM. Differences in perceptions of UC-related burden between physician and patient may reflect to some degree insufficient patient-physician communication.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Pancreatitis in inflammatory bowel disease has been attributed to peripancreatic intestinal disease and/or drug-induced pancreatic toxicity. We used large cohort analyses to define inflammatory bowel disease and pancreatitis temporal co-occurrence with a detailed descriptive analysis to gain greater insight into the pathophysiological relationship between these 2 diseases. METHODS Truven Health MarketScan private insurance claims from 141,017,841 patients (younger than 65 years) and 7,457,709 patients from 4 academic hospitals were analyzed. We calculated the prevalence of Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis (UC) with acute pancreatitis or chronic pancreatitis (CP) and performed temporal and descriptive analyses. RESULTS Of 516,724 patients with inflammatory bowel disease, 12,109 individuals (2.3%) had pancreatitis. Acute pancreatitis (AP) was 2-6x more prevalent than CP. In adults, AP occurred equally among Crohn's disease and UC (1.8%-2.2% vs 1.6%-2.1%, respectively), whereas in children, AP was more frequent in UC (2.3%-3.4% vs 1.5%-1.8%, respectively). The highest proportion of pancreatitis (21.7%-44.7%) was at/near the time of inflammatory bowel disease diagnosis. Of them, 22.1%-39.3% were on steroids during pancreatitis. Individuals with CP or recurrent pancreatitis hospitalizations had increased risk of a future inflammatory bowel disease diagnosis (odds ratio = 1.52 or 1.72, respectively). DISCUSSION Pancreatitis in inflammatory bowel disease may not simply be a drug adverse event but may also involve local and/or systemic processes that negatively affect the pancreas. Our analysis of pancreatitis before, during, and after inflammatory bowel disease diagnosis suggests a bidirectional pathophysiologic relationship between inflammatory bowel disease and pancreatitis, with potentially more complexity than previously appreciated.

Abstract
AIM To examine the relationship between periodontal disease and tooth loss and risk of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). METHODS We conducted a prospective cohort study of 86,602 women from the Nurses' Health Study (1992-2016) and 50,349 men from the Health Professionals Follow-up Study (1986-2016) with available data on periodontal disease and tooth loss. Cases of IBD were initially reported by participants and then confirmed by medical record review. We used Cox proportional hazards modelling to estimate multivariable-adjusted hazard ratios (aHRs) and 95% CIs. RESULTS Through the end of follow-up, we documented 175 cases of Crohn's disease (CD) and 209 cases of ulcerative colitis (UC). After adjustment for potential risk factors, there was no association between periodontal disease and risk of CD (pooled aHR: 0.99, 95% CI: 0.65-1.52, p = 0.970) or UC (aHR: 0.99, 95% CI: 0.68-1.45, p = 0.971). Similarly, we did not observe an association between tooth loss and risk of CD (aHR: 0.72, 95% CI: 0.43-1.21, p = 0.218) or UC (aHR: 0.89, 95% CI: 0.58-1.36, p = 0.581) in the pooled analysis. The associations were not modified by sex, age, body mass index (BMI), smoking status or NSAID use (all pinteraction > 0.87). CONCLUSION In two large prospective cohort studies, we did not observe an association between periodontal disease and tooth loss and risk of CD or UC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a common concomitant condition in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). We aim to assess the magnitude of this association. METHODS We searched MEDLINE, EMBASE and Scopus libraries for the period up to February 2023 to identify studies reporting cohorts of IBD patients in which NALFLD was evaluated. RESULTS Eighty-nine studies were analyzed. The overall prevalence of NAFLD was 24.4% (95%CI, 19.3-29.8) in IBD, 20.2% (18.3-22.3) in Crohn's disease and 18.5% (16.4-20.8) for ulcerative colitis. Higher prevalence was found in male compared to female patients, in full papers compared to abstracts, and in cross-sectional studies compared to prospective and retrospective ones. The prevalence of NAFLD in IBD has increased in studies published from 2015 onwards: 23.2% (21.5-24.9) vs. 17.8% (13.2-22.9). Diagnostic methods for NAFLD determined prevalence figures, being highest in patients assessed by controlled attenuation parameter (38.8%; 33.1-44.7) compared to ultrasonography (28.5%; 23.1-34.2) or other methods. The overall prevalence of fibrosis was 16.7% (12.2-21.7) but varied greatly according to the measurement method. CONCLUSION One-quarter of patients with IBD might present with NAFLD worldwide. This proportion was higher in recent studies and in those that used current diagnostic methods.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), including Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC), is a chronic inflammatory disease of the digestive tract with increasing prevalence globally. Although venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a major complication in IBD patients, it is often underappreciated with limited tools for risk stratification. AIM To estimate the proportion of VTE among IBD patients and assess genetic risk factors (monogenic and polygenic) for VTE. METHODS Incident VTE was followed for 8465 IBD patients in the UK Biobank (UKB). The associations of VTE with F5 factor V leiden (FVL) mutation, F2 G20210A prothrombin gene mutation (PGM), and polygenic score (PGS003332) were tested using Cox hazards regression analysis, adjusting for age at IBD diagnosis, gender, and genetic background (top 10 principal components). The performance of genetic risk factors for discriminating VTE diagnosis was estimated using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC). RESULTS The overall proportion of incident VTE was 4.70% in IBD patients and was similar for CD (4.46%), UC (4.49%), and unclassified (6.42%), and comparable to that of cancer patients (4.66%) who are well-known at increased risk for VTE. Mutation carriers of F5/F2 had a significantly increased risk for VTE compared to non-mutation carriers, hazard ratio (HR) was 1.94, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.42-2.65. In contrast, patients with the top PGS decile had a considerably higher risk for VTE compared to those with intermediate scores (middle 8 deciles), HR was 2.06 (95%CI: 1.57-2.71). The AUC for differentiating VTE diagnosis was 0.64 (95%CI: 0.61-0.67), 0.68 (95%CI: 0.66-0.71), and 0.69 (95%CI: 0.66-0.71), respectively, for F5/F2 mutation carriers, PGS, and combined. CONCLUSION Similar to cancer patients, VTE complications are common in IBD patients. PGS provides more informative risk information than F5/F2 mutations (FVL and PGM) for personalized thromboprophylaxis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Inflammatory bowel disease [IBD] has been linked to an increased risk of colorectal neoplasia. However, the types and risks of specific polyp types in IBD are less clear. METHODS We identified 41 880 individuals with IBD (Crohn's disease [CD: n = 12 850]; ulcerative colitis [UC]: n = 29 030]) from Sweden matched with 41 880 reference individuals. Using Cox regression, we calculated adjusted hazard ratios [aHRs] for neoplastic colorectal polyps [tubular, serrated/sessile, advanced and villous] defined by histopathology codes. RESULTS During follow-up, 1648 [3.9%] IBD patients and 1143 [2.7%] reference individuals had an incident neoplastic colorectal polyp, corresponding to an incidence rate of 46.1 and 34.2 per 10 000 person-years, respectively. This correlated to an aHR of 1.23 (95% confidence interval [CI] 1.12-1.35) with the highest HRs seen for sessile serrated polyps [8.50, 95% CI 1.10-65.90] and traditional serrated adenomas [1.72, 95% CI 1.02-2.91]. aHRs for colorectal polyps were particularly elevated in those diagnosed with IBD at a young age and at 10 years after diagnosis. Both absolute and relative risks of colorectal polyps were higher in UC than in CD [aHRs 1.31 vs 1.06, respectively], with a 20-year cumulative risk difference of 4.4% in UC and 1.5% in CD, corresponding to one extra polyp in 23 patients with UC and one in 67 CD patients during the first 20 years after IBD diagnosis. CONCLUSIONS In this nationwide population-based study, there was an increased risk of neoplastic colorectal polyps in IBD patients. Colonoscopic surveillance in IBD appears important, especially in UC and after 10 years of disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Given the current trends in increasing the life expectancy of patients with ulcerative colitis (UC), the study of the risk of atherothrombotic events in them requires study. For effective prevention of cardiovascular diseases, it is necessary to assess cardiovascular risk factors since the concept of their timely detection is the basic one when planning preventive measures. AIM To assess the prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors in patients with UC. MATERIALS AND METHODS One hundred eighty four UC patients participated in the case-control study; 56 participants were included in the control group. The studied parameters are unmodified, behavioral, and biological factors of cardiovascular risk. The study participants were surveyed, examined, measured blood pressure, height, weight, the level of total cholesterol was studied, and the lipid spectrum was analyzed in 80 patients with UC. Parametric and nonparametric statistical methods were used. RESULTS UC patients consumed fruit less often, drank tea and coffee with sugar more often, exercised less often and experienced high levels of stress. A higher incidence of arterial hypertension in UC patients was established, even though the fact of taking glucocorticosteroids was considered. No significant differences were found in the assessment of relative and total cardiovascular risk. CONCLUSION Risk management of cardiovascular diseases in UC patients should focus on a personalized approach and timely screening of modifiable cardiovascular risk factors with their subsequent correction. The absence of significant differences in the level of relative and total cardiovascular risk indicates a limited contribution of traditional risk factors to the development of cardiovascular diseases in UC patients.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), such as Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC), are chronic and relapsing inflammations of the digestive tract with increasing prevalence, yet they have unknown origins or cure. CD and UC have similar symptoms but respond differently to surgery and medication. Current diagnostic tools often involve invasive procedures, while laboratory markers for patient stratification are lacking. Large glycomic studies of immunoglobulin G and total plasma glycosylation have shown biomarker potential in IBD and could help determine disease mechanisms and therapeutic treatment choice. Hitherto, the glycosylation signatures of plasma immunoglobulin A, an important immunoglobulin secreted into the intestinal mucin, have remained undetermined in the context of IBD. Our study investigated the associations of immunoglobulin A1 and A2 glycosylation with IBD in 442 IBD cases (188 CD and 254 UC) and 120 healthy controls by reversed-phase liquid chromatography electrospray-ionization mass spectrometry of tryptic glycopeptides. Differences of IgA O- and N-glycosylation (including galactosylation, bisection, sialylation, and antennarity) between patient groups were associated with the diseases, and these findings led to the construction of a statistical model to predict the disease group of the patients without the need of invasive procedures. This study expands the current knowledge about CD and UC and could help in the development of noninvasive biomarkers and better patient care.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recent advances in the management of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) striving for new treatment targets may have decreased rates of hospitalization for flares. We compared all-cause, IBD-related, and non-IBD-related hospitalizations while accounting for the rising prevalence of IBD. METHODS Population-based, administrative health care databases identified all individuals living with IBD in Alberta between fiscal year 2002 and 2018. Hospitalization rates (all-cause, IBD-related, and non-IBD-related) were calculated using the prevalent Alberta IBD population. Hospitalizations were stratified by disease type, age, sex, and metropolitan status. Data were age and sex standardized to the 2019 Canadian population. Log-linear models calculated Average Annual Percentage Change (AAPC) in hospitalization rates with associated 95% confidence intervals (CIs). RESULTS From 2002-2003 to 2018-2019, all-cause hospitalization rates decreased from 36.57 to 16.72 per 100 IBD patients (AAPC, -4.18%; 95% CI, -4.69 to -3.66). Inflammatory bowel disease-related hospitalization rate decreased from 26.44 to 9.24 per 100 IBD patients (AAPC, -5.54%; 95% CI, -6.19 to -4.88). Non-IBD-related hospitalization rate decreased from 10.13 to 7.48 per 100 IBD patients (AAPC, -1.82%; 95% CI, -2.14 to -1.49). Those over 80 years old had the greatest all-cause and non-IBD-related hospitalization rates. Temporal trends showing decreasing hospitalization rates were observed across age, sex, IBD type, and metropolitan status. CONCLUSIONS Hospitalization rates are decreasing for all-cause, IBD-related, and non-IBD-related hospitalizations. Over the past 20 years, the care of IBD has transitioned from hospital-based care to ambulatory-centric IBD management.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), including ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease, are inflammatory diseases of the gastrointestinal tract. The incidence of IBD is increasing in minority populations; however, little is known about the epidemiology and disease characteristics of IBD in Black women. METHODS Our study population included participants in the Black Women's Health Study. Diagnosis of IBD was self-reported through the biennial questionnaires starting at baseline in 1995. We estimated the incidence of IBD according to age and geographic region. A follow-up supplementary questionnaire was also sent to a subset of participants who reported diagnosis of IBD to evaluate the accuracy of self-reported diagnosis and to assess disease characteristics. RESULTS Through December 31, 2021, a total of 609 cases of IBD were reported, of which 142 were prevalent at baseline (prevalence, 0.24%), and 467 were incident (crude incidence rate, 33.2/100 000 person-years). The incidence of IBD was highest in the younger than 30 years age group and similar across geographic region. Among the participants who responded to the supplementary questionnaire, 57.1% had confirmed diagnosis of IBD. CONCLUSIONS In a large prospective cohort of US Black women, we found that the incidence of IBD was similar to previously published estimates in US White women. Future studies should focus on identifying risk factors for IBD in Black individuals in the United States.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Risk of cerebrovascular accidents (CVAs) in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) remains inconclusive. In this systematic review and meta-analysis, we aimed to estimate the incidence of and identify the risk factors for CVA in patients with IBD. METHODS PubMed, EMBASE and Web of Science were searched for articles published up to January 13, 2023 to identify those reported the incidence of CVA in IBD patients, along with the total person-years or related data to calculate it. The main outcomes were the incidence of and risk factors for CVA in IBD. RESULTS Based on the analysis of 10 studies, the pooled incidence of CVA in IBD patients was 2.74 per 1000 person-years (95% confidence interval [CI] 1.83-4.10 person-years; I2 = 99.2%), which was higher than that in the general population (incidence rate ratio [IRR] 1.21, 95% CI 1.09-1.34, P = 0.0002; I2 = 84.8%). Risk factors for CVA in IBD patients were age (significance in different definitions), ulcerative colitis (IRR 1.214, 95% CI 1.000-1.474, P = 0.0499; I2 = 81.9%), disease flares (IRR 1.699, 95% CI 1.359-2.122, P < 0.0001; I2 = 28.7%) and chronic activity (IRR 2.202, 95% CI 1.378-3.519, P = 0.0010; I2 = 83.0%). CONCLUSIONS The risk of CVA modestly increased in IBD patients. Both the traditional and IBD-related risk factors should be managed to prevent CVA in these patients. Since the effects of risk factors were derived from pooled results of only 2-3 studies, further research is needed to confirm our results.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Pediatric inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs) are chronic, idiopathic illnesses of the digestive tract, which can impact adversely on children's quality of life and burden health systems. International studies have shown these diseases are increasing. The aim was to describe pediatric IBD epidemiology across Oceania by conducting a systematic review and meta-analysis of incidence and prevalence. METHODS Medline, EMBASE and Web of Science databases were searched in October 2022 for studies reporting rates of IBD, Crohn disease (CD), or ulcerative colitis (UC) in children (≤19 years). Several data collection methodologies were included and pooled estimates of incidence and prevalence were calculated using a random effects model with I2 measures of heterogeneity. RESULTS Nineteen articles provided 15 incidence and 7 prevalence studies. Fourteen studies were from Australia, 8 studies from New Zealand, and no studies were found from the Pacific Islands. Study dates ranged from 1950 to 2020 with 11 studies using population-based designs. Pooled estimates for annual incidence were IBD 4.1 (3.4-4.8, I2 = 98.7), CD 2.3 (1.9-2.7, I2 = 98.6), and UC 0.9 (0.6-1.1, I2 = 96.8) per 100,000 person-years. Prevalence rates were IBD 36.0 (23.5-48.5, I2 = 98.4), CD 23.2 (6.6-39.8, I2 = 97.8), and UC 7.6 (2.7-12.5, I2 = 99.6) per 100,000 persons. CONCLUSIONS Pediatric IBD is prevalent in Oceania with high incidence rates, particularly for CD. Low rates of IBD were observed in indigenous Australian, Māori, and New Zealand Pacific children and there were no studies from the Pacific Islands highlighting this as an area in need of further research.

Abstract
This study aims to assess the risk of colorectal stricture progressing to colorectal neoplasia (CRN) in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). The literature from PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library databases was searched from the date of databases' creation to 5 November 2022. The Newcastle-Ottawa Scale was used to evaluate the quality of the included literature. Meta-analysis was conducted using the Stata 15 software and R 4.04 software. Two case-control studies and 12 cohort studies were eventually included. Colorectal stricture in patients with IBD increased the risk of progressing to CRN [odds ratio (OR): 1.52, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.02-2.29, P = 0.042], but was irrelevant to the risk of progressing to ACRN (OR: 3.56, 95% CI 0.56-22.70, P = 0.180). The risk of CRN were further distinguished in patients with ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD) Our findings showed that colorectal stricture may increase the risk of progressing to CRN in patients with UC (OR = 3.53, 95%CI 1.62-7.68, P = 0.001), but was irrelevant to the risk of progressing to CRN in patients with CD (OR = 1.09, 95% CI 0.54-2.21, P = 0.811). In conclusion, colorectal stricture in patients with IBD can be used as a risk factor for predicting CRN but cannot be used as a risk factor for predicting ACRN. Stricture is a risk factor for CRN in patients with UC but not in patients with CD. More prospective, multi-center studies with large samples are expected to confirm our findings.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The link between inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is still unclear. AIMS We conducted a Mendelian randomization research and meta-analysis to explore the impact of IBD and its subtypes (Crohn's disease [CD], ulcerative colitis [UC]) on the risk of ICH. METHODS Two large genome-wide association analysis studies of International Inflammatory Bowel Disease Genetics Consortium (IIBDGC) and International Stroke Genetics Consortium as exposure (IBD, UC, and CD) and outcome (ICH) in the initial stage. IBD, CD, UC GWAS data from the FinnGen consortium were adopted for the replication phase, and ultimately, the results of the initial stage and replication phase data were combined in a meta-analysis to evaluate the causal association between IBD and its subtypes and the risk of ICH. RESULTS In the initial stage, we found that in the IVW (odds ratio [OR] = 0.83, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.71-0.96, p = .01), MR-PRESSO (OR = 0.85, 95% CI: 0.75-0.97, p = .02) and MR.RAPS (OR = 0.86, 95% CI: 0.76-0.98, p = .02) method showed that UC is associated with the risk of ICH. The causal relationship between IBD, CD, and the risk of ICH cannot be found by the IVW method. IBD and its subtypes UC, CD, and risk of ICH cannot find the presence of heterogeneity and pleiotropy. In replication stage, IBD (OR = 0.74, 95% CI: 0.59-0.94, p = .0135) related to ICH, while the IVW approach did not establish a causal link in UC and CD. The meta-analysis still indicated that UC (OR = 0.83, 95% CI: 0.72-0.93, p < .05) would lessen the risk of ICH while the causality between IBD, CD, and ICH was unable to be established. CONCLUSION UC was causally related to ICH, but IBD and CD are not associated with ICH. The precise pathophysiological mechanism needs to be thoroughly investigated in more detail.

Abstract
Importance Data on the association between atopic dermatitis (AD) and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are inconsistent. Few studies have examined the association of AD or AD severity with risk of ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn disease (CD) separately. Objectives To examine the risk of new-onset IBD, UC, and CD in children and adults with AD. Design, Setting, and Participants This population-based cohort study assessed patients with AD matched with up to 5 controls on age, practice, and index date. Treatment exposure was used as a proxy for AD severity. Data were retrieved from The Health Improvement Network, a UK electronic medical record database, for January 1, 1994, to February 28, 2015. Data analysis was performed from January 8, 2020, to June 30, 2023. Main Outcomes and Measures Outcomes of interest were incident IBD, UC, and CD. Logistic regression was used to examine the risk for each outcome in children and adults with AD compared with controls. Results A total of 1 809 029 pediatric controls were matched to 409 431 children with AD (93.2% mild, 5.5% moderate, and 1.3% severe). The pediatric cohort ranged in median age from 4 to 5 years (overall range, 1-10 years), was predominantly male (936 750 [51.8%] controls, 196 996 [51.6%] with mild AD, 11 379 [50.7%] with moderate AD, and 2985 [56.1%] with severe AD), and with similar socioeconomic status. A total of 2 678 888 adult controls were matched to 625 083 adults with AD (65.7% mild, 31.4% moderate, and 2.9% severe). The adult cohort ranged in median age from 45 to 50 years (overall range, 30-68 years) and was predominantly female (1 445 589 [54.0%] controls, 256 071 [62.3%] with mild AD, 109 404 [55.8%] with moderate AD, and 10 736 [59.3%] with severe AD). In fully adjusted models, children with AD had a 44% increased risk of IBD (hazard ratio [HR], 1.44; 95% CI, 1.31-1.58) and a 74% increased risk of CD (HR, 1.74; 95% CI, 1.54-1.97), which increased with worsening AD; however, they did not have increased risk of UC (HR, 1.09; 95% CI, 0.94-1.27) except for those with severe AD (HR, 1.65; 95% CI, 1.02-2.67). Adults with AD had a 34% (HR, 1.34; 95% CI, 1.27-1.40) increased risk of IBD, a 36% (HR, 1.36; 95% CI, 1.26-1.47) increased risk of CB, and a 32% (HR, 1.32; 95% CI, 1.24-1.41) increased risk of UC, with risk increasing with worsening AD. Conclusion and Relevance In this cohort study, children and adults with AD had an increased risk of IBD, with risk varying by age, AD severity, and IBD subtype. These findings provide new insights into the association between AD and IBD. Clinicians should be aware of these risks, particularly when selecting systemic treatments for AD in patients who may have coincident gastrointestinal symptoms.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Inflammatory bowel disease has been linked to increasing healthcare costs, but longitudinal data on other societal costs are scarce. AIM To assess costs, including productivity losses, in patients with prevalent Crohn's disease (CD) or ulcerative colitis (UC) in Sweden between 2007 and 2020. METHODS We linked data from national registers on all patients with CD or UC and a matched (sex, birthyear, healthcare region and education) reference population. We assessed mean costs/year in Euros, inflation-adjusted to 2020, for hospitalisations, out-patient visits, medications, sick leave and disability pension. We defined excess costs as the mean difference between patients and matched comparators. RESULTS Between 2007 and 2020, absolute mean annual societal costs in working-age (18-64 years) individuals decreased by 17% in CD (-24% in the comparators) and by 20% in UC (-27% in comparators), due to decreasing costs from sick leave and disability, a consequence of stricter sick leave regulations. Excess costs in 2007 were dominated by productivity losses. In 2020, excess costs were mostly healthcare costs. Absolute and excess costs increased in paediatric and elderly patients. Overall, costs for TNF inhibitors/targeted therapies increased by 274% in CD and 638% in UC, and the proportion treated increased from 5% to 26% in CD, and from 1% to 10% in UC. CONCLUSION Between 2007 and 2020, excess costs shifted from productivity losses to direct healthcare costs; that is, the patients' compensation for sickness absence decreased, while society increased its spending on medications. Medication costs were driven both by expanding use of TNF inhibitors and by high costs for newer targeted therapies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND It is not known whether coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) is a trigger for disease activity in patients with inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). In patients with IBD, we aimed to examine the association between COVID-19 infection and prescriptions of systemic and local corticosteroids (used as proxy for disease activity). METHODS This nationwide cohort study was based on Danish health registries and included all patients in Denmark with ulcerative colitis (UC) or Crohn's disease (CD) by the start of the pandemic (March 1, 2020) and who had a positive COVID-19 polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test from March 1, 2020, to July 31, 2022. We calculated rates of corticosteroid prescriptions 6 months before and 6 months after a positive COVID-19 PCR test, and we calculated adjusted incidence rate ratios (aIRR). RESULTS We included 30,102 patients with IBD and a positive COVID-19 test (11,159 with CD, 18,493 with UC). The aIRR for having corticosteroid prescriptions after a COVID-19 positive test was 0.85 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.79-0.91). When we stratified for underlying disease, the aIRR for having corticosteroid after a COVID-19 positive test in UC was 0.82 (95% CI, 0.75-0.90), and in CD 0.91 (95% CI, 0.81-1.02). Stratifications according to calendar periods and age groups showed consistent results. CONCLUSIONS An infection with COVID-19 did not result in a higher rate of filled corticosteroid prescriptions. Using corticosteroids as a proxy for disease activity, COVID-19 did not seem to trigger disease activity, which is a reassuring result for patients with IBD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS In this nationwide study from the Israeli Inflammatory Bowel Disease Research Nucleus, we aimed to describe the incidence of very early onset inflammatory bowel diseases (VEOIBDs) with a focus on infantile-onset disease and to compare management and disease course with older children. METHODS Data were retrieved from the 4 Israeli Health Maintenance Organizations covering 98% of the population. Pediatric-onset IBD was categorized as follows: adolescent onset (10 to <18 y), early onset (6 to <10 y), VEOIBD (0 to <6 y), toddler onset (2 to <6 y), and infantile onset (<2 y). RESULTS A total of 5243 children with 35,469 person-years of follow-up evaluation, were diagnosed with IBD during 2005 to 2020: 4444 (85%) with adolescent onset, 548 (10%) with early onset, and 251 (4.8%) with VEOIBD, of whom 81 (1.5%) had infantile onset. The incidence of pediatric-onset IBD increased from 10.8 per 100,000 in 2005 to 15.3 per 100,000 in 2019 (average annual percentage change, 2.8%; 95% CI, 2.2%-3.4%), but that of VEOIBD remained stable (average annual percentage change, 0%; 95% CI, -2.5% to 2.6%). The infantile-onset and toddler-onset groups were treated less often with biologics (36% and 35%, respectively) vs the early onset (57%) and adolescent-onset groups (53%; P < .001). The time to steroid dependency was shorter in infantile-onset (hazard ratio [HR], 2.1; 95% CI, 1.5-2.9) and toddler-onset disease (HR, 1.6; 95% CI, 1.2-2.0) vs early onset and adolescent-onset disease, but time to hospitalizations, time to surgery, and growth delay were worse only in infantile-onset disease. In a multivariable model, infantile-onset patients had a higher risk for surgery (HR, 1.4; 95% CI, 1.1-1.9) and hospitalization (HR, 1.7; 95% CI, 1.2-2.4) than the toddler-onset group. CONCLUSIONS The incidence of VEOIBD remained stable. Infantile-onset IBD had worse outcomes than older children, while toddler onset had mostly similar outcomes, despite less frequent use of biologics.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cases of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) following isotretinoin use have been reported previously, but whether isotretinoin exposure is associated with IBD has been unclear. OBJECTIVE The aim was to evaluate whether isotretinoin use is associated with IBD. METHODS We performed a systematic review and searched MEDLINE, Embase, and CENTRAL databases from inception to January 27, 2023 for relevant case-control and cohort studies. Our outcome was the pooled odds ratio (OR) for IBD and its two subtypes (Crohn disease and ulcerative colitis) in relation to isotretinoin exposure. We conducted a random-effects model meta-analysis and a sensitivity analysis by excluding low-quality studies. A subgroup analysis was undertaken by including studies considering antibiotic use. A trial sequential analysis (TSA) was performed to test the robustness of the conclusiveness of our results. RESULTS We included eight studies (four case-control and four cohort studies) with a total of 2,522,422 participants. The meta-analysis found no increased odds for IBD among patients receiving isotretinoin (OR 1.01; 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.80-1.27). Nor did the meta-analysis find increased odds for either Crohn disease (OR 0.87; 95% CI 0.65-1.15) or ulcerative colitis (OR 1.27; 95% CI 0.94-1.73) associated with isotretinoin exposure. The sensitivity and subgroup analyses produced similar results. In TSA, the Z-curve reached the futility boundaries when using relative risk reduction thresholds ranging from 5% to 15%. CONCLUSION This meta-analysis with TSA found no evidence of an association of isotretinoin use with IBD. Isotretinoin should not be withheld because of unnecessary concerns for the development of IBD. PROSPERO REGISTRATION NO CRD42022298886.

Abstract
DESIGN This was an analytical 'case-control' study. CASE/CONTROL SELECTION Patients diagnosed with inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), that is either ulcerative colitis or Crohn's disease, were selected from the Medical Hospital of University of Turin and were referred as cases. Equal number of patients, not having IBD, were selected from the Dental school of the same University and called as controls. The cases and controls were matched for age, sex, and ethnicity. Data for all patients regarding their socio-demographic features was collected using a questionnaire. In addition, data regarding periodontal health, which included clinical attachment loss, bleeding on probing, recession, presence, and severity of periodontitis etc. was also evaluated for all the included patients. DATA ANALYSIS Data analysis involved descriptive statistics to compare cases and control. This was done by comparing the proportions (using χ2 test), comparing continuous measures (using median values). In addition, two logistic regression models were created to explore the impact/association of different variables with the causation of the disease; one model explored the variables associated with periodontitis while the second model explored the variables which can be risk indicators for IBD. RESULTS Non-significant differences were observed on comparing various socio-demographic features while significant differences were observed in the prevalence of severe periodontitis (85.6% vs. 65.6%) amongst cases and controls. Fragmenting the periodontitis-prevalence data as per age, patients in age groups 36-50 and 51-65 exhibited significant differences on comparing cases and controls, with p values of 0.002 and 0.022, respectively, while comparison of periodontitis prevalence amongst cases/controls in 18-35 age group or >65 age group non-significant differences were observed. The logistic regression models revealed strong associations between IBD and periodontitis and vice versa. Role of other risk factors was also explored in these regression models. CONCLUSIONS Associations between periodontitis and IBD were found; and these connotations were bi-directional.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Past studies have demonstrated that women with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) have a higher risk of gynecological conditions than do women without it. We aimed to characterize the gynecological histories of Hispanic Women living in Puerto Rico with IBD. METHODS We identified women, aged 21 to 55 years, with a confirmed IBD diagnosis and receiving follow-up care from the University of Puerto Rico IBD clinics from 2017 through 2020. A questionnaire was administered to acquire sociodemographics, family history, past medical history, IBD diagnosis, and gynecologic aspects. RESULTS One hundred eighty-six women were recruited. Fifty-three (28%) patients had ulcerative colitis, while 133 (72%) had Crohn's disease. Fifty-six percent of all the participants had a chronic illness in addition to than their IBD. Seventy-four out of 186 patients reported having had at least 1 late period within the last 12 months. Fifty-three (28%) described their period patterns as irregular. Thirty-nine (21%) of the patients reported having been vaccinated against human papillomavirus (HPV), and 8 (4%) had been infected by it. Nine out of 186 (5%) patients reported suffering from infertility. CONCLUSION The results showed that our Hispanic patients (living in Puerto Rico) had a prevalence of irregular menstrual cycles that was similar to that observed in other populations. On the other hand, the presence of HPV, infertility, and cervical cancer were lower and the frequency of Papanicolaou smears performed higher than what has been seen in the continental United States, suggesting that this topic should be investigated in future studies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Evidence suggests that IBD is related to an increased risk of depressive disorder and suicide. OBJECTIVES Whether IBD is an independent risk factor for suicide remains unclear. DESIGN A matched cohort study design. SETTINGS Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database. PATIENTS A total of 3625 adults with IBD aged ≥20 years and 36,250 matched controls were selected between 1997 and 2013 and followed-up to the end of 2013. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Any suicide attempt was identified during the study period. Stratified Cox regression analysis was conducted on each matched pair to investigate the attempted suicide risk between the IBD and control groups. RESULTS The hazard ratio for any suicide attempt among the patients with IBD was 4.61 (95% CI, 3.29-6.48) compared with controls matched exactly for depressive disorder. No significant difference in suicide attempts was noted between patients with ulcerative colitis (HR, 4.12; 95% CI, 2.69-6.32) and patients with Crohn's disease (HR, 5.78; 95% CI, 3.27-10.22). LIMITATIONS The incidence of any suicide attempt may be underestimated. CONCLUSION IBD was an independent risk factor for attempted suicide. However, further studies are required to elucidate the definite pathomechanisms between IBD and suicide. RIESGO DE INTENTO DE SUICIDIO ENTRE PACIENTES CON ENFERMEDAD INFLAMATORIA INTESTINAL UN ESTUDIO DE SEGUIMIENTO LONGITUDINAL A NIVEL NACIONAL ANTECEDENTES: La evidencia sugiere que la enfermedad inflamatoria intestinal (EII) está relacionada con un mayor riesgo de trastornos depresivos y de suicidios.OBJETIVOS: Sin embargo, aún no está claro si la EII es un factor de riesgo independiente para llegar al suicidio.DISEÑO: Estudio de cohortes de tipo pareado.AJUSTES: Investigación en la base de datos del seguro nacional de salud de Taiwán.PACIENTES: Se seleccionaron un total de 3.625 adultos con EII de ≥20 años y 36.250 controes emparejados entre 1997 y 2013, se les dio un seguimiento hasta finales de 2013.PRINCIPALES MEDIDAS DE RESULTADO: Se identificó cualquier intento de suicidio durante el período del estudio. Se realizó un análisis de regresión de Cox estratificado en cada dupla apareada dentro la investigación del riesgo de intento de suicidio comparado entre los grupos de EII y el grupo control.RESULTADOS: El cociente de riesgo instantáneo (HR) para cualquier intento de suicidio entre los pacientes con EII fue de 4,61 (el intervalo de confianza [IC] del 95 %: 3,29-6,48) en comparación con los controles apareados exactamente en casos de trastorno depresivo. No se observaron diferencias significativas en los intentos de suicidio entre los pacientes con colitis ulcerosa (HR: 4,12, IC 95 %: 2,69-6,32) y enfermedad de Crohn (HR: 5,78, IC 95 %: 3,27-10,22).LIMITACIONES: La incidencia de cualquier intento de suicidio puede estar subestimada.CONCLUSIÓN: La EII fué un factor de riesgo independiente para el intento de suicidio. Sin embargo, se requieren más estudios para dilucidar los mecanismos patogénicos definitivos entre la EII y el suicidio. (Traducción-Dr. Xavier Delgadillo ).
