Abstract
During the disease course, most Inflammatory Bowel Disease patients present a condition of malnutrition, undernutrition, or even overnutrition. These conditions are mainly due to suboptimal nutritional intake, alterations in nutrient requirements and metabolism, malabsorption, and excessive gastrointestinal losses. A suboptimal nutritional status and low micronutrient serum levels can have a negative impact on both induction and maintenance of remission and on the quality of life of Inflammatory Bowel Disease patients. We performed a systematic review including all the studies evaluating the connection between nutrition, nutrition status (including undernutrition and overnutrition), micronutrient deficiency, and both disease course and therapeutic response in Inflammatory Bowel Disease patients. This systematic review was performed using PubMed/MEDLINE and Scopus. Four main clinical settings concerning the effect of nutrition on disease course in adult Inflammatory Bowel Disease patients were analyzed (induction of remission, maintenance of remission, risk of surgery, post-operative recurrence, and surgery-related complications). Four authors independently reviewed abstracts and manuscripts for eligibility. 6077 articles were found; 762 duplicated studies were removed. Out of 412 full texts analyzed, 227 were included in the review. The evidence summarized in this review showed that many nutritional aspects could be potential targets to induce a better control of symptoms, a deeper remission, and overall improve the quality of life of Inflammatory Bowel Disease patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIMS Clinical characteristics of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) with anemia have not been fully elucidated. This study aimed to investigate the frequency of, risk factors for, and management of anemia in IBD patients and to evaluate the quality of life (QOL) in IBD patients with anemia. METHODS We included two patient cohorts. In cohort 1, clinical data from 697 IBD patients were retrospectively collected. In cohort 2, the Short Form-36 Health Survey (SF-36) and Fatigue Scale-14 (FS-14) questionnaires for IBD patients were completed to evaluate the QOL. RESULTS Anemia was present in 35.6% of IBD patients [38.2% of Crohn's disease (CD) patients vs. 29.3% of ulcerative colitis (UC) patients, P = 0.025]. Elevated platelet (PLT) count (CD: OR, 1.004; 95% CI, 1.001-1.007; P = 0.007; UC: OR, 1.010; 95% CI, 1.004-1.016; P = 0.001), elevated erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) (CD: OR, 1.024; 95% CI, 1.012-1.036; P < 0.001; UC: OR, 1.025; 95% CI, 1.001-1.051; P = 0.044), and lower albumin levels (CD: OR, 0.801; 95% CI, 0.749-0.857; P < 0.001; UC: OR, 0.789; 95% CI, 0.720-0.864; P < 0.001) were associated with anemia. Among the IBD patients with anemia, only 25.8% received treatment for anemia. IBD patients with anemia had significantly lower SF-36 scores (P = 0.011) and higher FS-14 scores (P = 0.026) than those without anemia. CONCLUSION Anemia is common in IBD patients. Elevated PLT count and ESR are risk factors for anemia in IBD patients. Anemia may negatively impact IBD patients' QOL, but few anemia patients receive treatment for anemia.

Abstract
Background: Iron deficiency (ID) without anaemia is a common comorbidity associated with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) that has a negative impact on health-related quality of life (HRQoL). Methods: This multicentre, prospective, observational study examined the response to, safety of and impact on HRQoL of a single 500 mg dose of intravenous ferric carboxymaltose (FCM) in patients with IBD and ID without anaemia. The diagnostic criteria for ID were low serum ferritin (<30 µg/L in the absence of inflammatory activity or <100 µg/L with inflammation) and transferrin saturation index (TSAT) < 16%. The effect on iron levels and HRQoL, according to the health status questionnaires SF-12v2 and EQ-5D, was evaluated 1 month after FCM infusion in an outpatient setting. Results: Of the 105 patients who received FCM, 98 patients completed the study. After 1 month, a single dose of FCM significantly increased serum ferritin, serum iron and TSAT. Importantly, patients reported fewer ID symptoms and problems on all EQ-5D dimensions. They also had higher EQ-5D visual analogue scale and SF-12v2 scores after treatment. FCM had similar clinical effects on men and women and on patients with Crohn’s disease (n = 66) and ulcerative colitis (n = 32). Conclusion: A single dose of FCM rapidly restored iron parameters and significantly improved patients’ symptoms and HRQoL at 1 month after treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Iron deficiency anemia (IDA) is a common complication of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and can result in reduced quality of life and increased healthcare costs. IDA is treated with iron supplementation, commonly with intravenous iron formulations, such as ferric carboxymaltose (FCM), and iron sucrose (IS). METHODS This study assessed the cost-effectiveness of FCM compared with IS, in terms of additional cost per additional responder in patients with IDA subsequent to IBD in the Spanish setting. An economic model was developed to assess the additional cost per additional responder, defined as normalization or an increase of ⩾2 g/dl in hemoglobin levels, for FCM versus IS from a Spanish healthcare payer perspective. Efficacy inputs were taken from a randomized controlled trial comparing the two interventions (FERGIcor). Costs of treatment were calculated in 2021 Euros (EUR) using a microcosting approach and included the costs of intravenous iron, healthcare professional time, and consumables. Cost-effectiveness was assessed over one cycle of treatment, with a series of sensitivity analyses performed to test the robustness of the results. RESULTS FCM was more effective than IS, with 84% of patients achieving a response compared with 76%. When expressed as number needed to treat, 13 patients would need to switch treatment from IS to FCM in order to achieve one additional responder. Costs of treatment were EUR 323 with FCM compared with EUR 470 with IS, a cost saving of EUR 147 with FCM. Cost savings with FCM were driven by the reduced number of infusions required, resulting in a reduced requirement for healthcare professional time and use of consumables compared with the IS arm. CONCLUSION The present analysis suggests that FCM is less costly and more effective than IS for the treatment of IDA subsequent to IBD in Spain and therefore was considered dominant.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease is a chronic disease with variable degrees of extent, severity, and activity. A proportion of patients will have disease that is refractory to licensed therapies, resulting in significant impairment in quality of life. The treatment of these patients involves a systematic approach by the entire multidisciplinary team, with particular consideration given to medical options including unlicensed therapies, surgical interventions, and dietetic and psychological support. The purpose of this review is to guide clinicians through this process and provide an accurate summary of the available evidence for different strategies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Crohn's disease (CD) with upper gastrointestinal involvement (UGI) may have a more aggressive and refractory course. However, evidence on this phenotype of patients is scarce. AIMS To identify the clinical characteristics, therapeutic requirements and complications associated with UGI in CD METHODS: Nationwide study of cases (UGI, UGI plus ileal/ileocolonic involvement) paired with controls (ileal/ileocolonic involvement) from the ENEIDA registry. Cases were matched to 2 controls by year of diagnosis ± 2.5 years. Patients with exclusive/predominant colonic location or complex perianal fistula were excluded. RESULTS Of 24 738 patients with CD in the ENEIDA registry, we identified 4058 with UGI (16% of the total CD cohort). Finally, 854 cases and 1708 controls were included. Cases were independently associated to extensive involvement (OR 2.7 [2.2-3.3], P < 0.0001), strictures [OR 1.8 (1.5-2.2), P < 0.0001], chronic iron deficiency anaemia [OR 2.2 (1.3-3.2), P < 0.001] and use of second-line biologics [OR 1.7 (1.1-2.6), P = 0.021]. The median stricture-free time was 14 years (95% CI, 12-16) for cases vs 21 years (95% CI, 19-23) for controls (P < 0.0001). Cases with isolated UGI compared to UGI plus ileal/ileocolonic more frequently had localised disease [OR 0.5(0.3-0.8), P = 0.003] and underwent more endoscopic stricture dilations [OR 2.7(1.3-5.4), P = 0.006]. CONCLUSIONS The largest cohort of patients with CD and UGI provides information on the natural history of this particular phenotype. Increased awareness of the clinical picture and therapeutic requirements of these patients could lead to earlier diagnosis and treatment of upper gastrointestinal lesions, preventing the structural damage frequently seen in these patients at diagnosis and during follow-up.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Iron deficiency (ID) and anemia are one of the most common extraintestinal manifestations of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), usually complicating the course both in ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease. Despite their high prevalence and significant impact on patients, this particular aspect is still underestimated by clinicians. Although guidelines have been recently published to address this problem, these recommendations do not address pediatric specific concerns and do not provide guidance as to how implement these guidelines in clinical practice. The aims of this quality improvement (QI) initiative were to improve the rates of detection and treatment of anemia in children with IBD. METHODS After the creation of a multidisciplinary team of skateholders in IBD and anemia, we launched a multifaceted QI strategy that included the development of a pediatric evidence-based care pathway, utilization of an electronic medical record (EMR)-integrated dashboard to track patients, and generation of an automated provider-based monthly report. Data were collected and graphed into statistical process control charts. RESULTS These key strategies resulted in improved rates of ID screening from 31.7% to 63.6%, in increased treatment rates from 38.2% to 49.9%, and in decreased prevalence of anemia from 35.8% to 29.7%, which was reflected by a greater decline in patients with quiescent disease. CONCLUSIONS Quality improvement strategies incorporating the creation of a pediatric evidence-based care pathway with an EMR-supported electronic dashboard were the foundation of a successful intervention in the management of ID and anemia in pediatric IBD. Our positive results demonstrate the potential of QI initiatives using automated technology to assist clinicians in their commitment to provide evidence-based IBD care and enhance patient outcomes.

Abstract
Anemia is a frequent complication of ulcerative colitis, and is frequently caused by iron deficiency. Oral iron supplementation displays high rates of gastrointestinal adverse effects. However, the formulation of sucrosomial iron (SI) has shown higher tolerability. We performed a prospective study to compare the effectiveness and tolerability of oral SI and intravenous ferric carboxy-maltose (FCM) in patients with ulcerative colitis in remission and mild-to-moderate anemia. Patients were randomized 1:1 to receive 60 mg/day for 8 weeks and then 30 mg/day for 4 weeks of oral SI or intravenous 1000 mg of FCM at baseline. Hemoglobin and serum levels of iron and ferritin were assessed after 4, 8, and 12 weeks from baseline. Hemoglobin and serum iron increased in both groups after 4 weeks of therapy, and remained stable during follow up, without significant treatment or treatment-by-time interactions (p = 0.25 and p = 0.46 for hemoglobin, respectively; p = 0.25 and p = 0.26 for iron, respectively). Serum ferritin did not increase over time during SI supplementation, while it increased in patients treated with FCM (treatment effect, p = 0.0004; treatment-by-time interaction effect, p = 0.0002). Overall, this study showed that SI and FCM displayed similar effectiveness and tolerability for treatment of mild-to-moderate anemia in patients with ulcerative colitis under remission.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Anemia is a common extraintestinal manifestation of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). However, data on the influence of anti-tumor necrosis factor-alpha (anti-TNF-α) agents and iron supplementation on anemia in patients with IBD are sparse. We assessed the effect of iron supplementation in patients with IBD initially treated with an anti-TNF-α agent. METHODS Data from 79 IBD patients who started anti-TNF-α treatment at a tertiary hospital were analyzed. The patients were divided into the anti-TNF-α (n = 52) and anti-TNF-α with iron supplementation (n = 27) groups. Effects on laboratory parameters, the prevalence of anemia, and disease activity were evaluated at baseline (year 0) and 1 year later. RESULTS The hemoglobin (Hb) level significantly increased between years 0 and 1 in both groups [12.0 ± 1.8-13.3 ± 2.0 g/dL in the anti-TNF-α group (p < 0.001) and 9.8 ± 2.4-11.7 ± 2.3 g/dL in the anti-TNF-α and iron supplementation group (p = 0.004)]. In a subgroup analysis of severely anemic patients with IBD, iron supplementation increased the magnitude of the improvement in Hb level (8.5 ± 1.5-11.4 ± 2.1 g/dL; p = 0.001) compared with the anti-TNF-α group (9.3 ± 0.8-11.4 ± 2.7 g/dL; p = 0.081). Disease activity was significantly improved in both groups at year 1 compared with year 0. Persistent anemia was significantly correlated with severe anemia at baseline (p = 0.017). CONCLUSION In anemic patients with IBD, anti-TNF-α agents led to clinically meaningful improvements in anemia independent of iron supplementation. Also, iron supplementation could be helpful in severely anemic patients with IBD.

Abstract
Anemia is a common manifestation of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), but it remains unclear whether anemia is associated with the development of IBD. We assessed the risk of developing IBD in anemic patients, and stratified the results with respect to their hemoglobin concentrations. A population-based study was conducted using the National Healthcare Insurance Service database in South Korea. We included individuals over 20 years’ old who participated in the national health screening program in 2009 (n = 9,962,064). Anemia was defined as a hemoglobin level less than 13 g/dL in men and less than 12 g/dL in women. We compared the rate of newly diagnosed IBD in anemic patients and non-anemic individuals. Newly diagnosed IBD was identified using both the ICD-10 medical code and specialized V codes for rare intractable diseases in South Korea. During the mean follow-up period of 7.3 years, the incidences of CD and UC in anemic patients were 2.89 and 6.88 per 100,000 person-years, respectively. The risk of CD was significantly higher in anemic patients than in non-anemic individuals [adjusted hazard ratio (aHR), 2.084; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.769–2.455]. The risk of CD development was inversely proportional to the hemoglobin concentration. A J-curve relationship was observed between age and the risk of CD in anemic patients. The risk of CD in male anemic patients was significantly higher than that in female anemic patients (aHR, 1.432 vs. 1.240, respectively). By contrast, there was no statistically significant difference in the risk of developing UC in anemic and non-anemic individuals (aHR, 0.972; 95% CI, 0.880–1.073). This work indicates that anemia is related to the development of CD, and this risk was inversely proportional to the hemoglobin concentration.

Abstract
ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: Data regarding the prevalence of anemia in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients are scarce in Brazil. Anemia and iron deficiency anemia have been known to cause significant functional impairment, lower quality of life, and higher morbidity and mortality and may be correlated with an impact on the cost of treatment. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to estimate the prevalence and risk factors for anemia and iron deficiency anemia in patients with IBD in a tertiary IBD unit in Southeast Brazil. METHODS: We conducted an Institutional Review Board-approved retrospective analysis of an adult IBD cohort (IBD Unit, Ribeirão Preto Medical School, University of São Paulo, Brazil) consisting of 579 patients between January 2014 and July 2018. Clinicoepidemiological data, hemoglobin measurements and serum ferritin were extracted from electronic medical records. Anemia prevalence was calculated among ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn’s disease (CD) phenotypes. Risk factors for anemia were also calculated. RESULTS: A total of 529 (91%) patients had complete blood counts available in their medical records. Only 35.5% of IBD patients were fully screened for anemia. The prevalence of anemia in IBD patients was 24.6% (29.1% in CD and 19.1% in UC, P=0.008). The anemia was moderate to severe in 16.9% (19.8% in CD and 11.4% in UC, P=0.34). The prevalence of iron deficiency was 52.3% (53.6% in CD and 51.2% in UC, P=0.95). Anemia of chronic disease was present in 14.1% of IBD patients. A total of 53.8% of patients with anemia were in clinical remission. CD was associated with an increased prevalence of anemia (P=0.008; OR=1.76; CI 95% =1.16-2.66) compared to UC. The penetrant disease phenotype in CD was associated with a lower risk of anemia (P<0.0001; OR=0.25; CI 95% =0.14-0.43). Active disease compared to the disease in clinical remission was associated with an increased risk of anemia (P=0.0003; OR=2.61; CI 95% =1.56-4.36) in CD. The presence of anemia was less frequent in patients with CD who underwent surgical bowel resection compared to those who did not undergo surgery (P<0.0001; OR=0.24; CI 95% =0.14-0.40). No differences in anemia prevalence were observed regarding CD localization, age at diagnosis, UC extension or biological therapy (P>0.05). CONCLUSION: Despite the low levels of full screening, anemia and iron deficiency anemia were common manifestations of IBD. CD was associated with an increased risk of anemia, especially with active disease. In addition, patients with CD who underwent surgical bowel resection and penetrant disease phenotype in CD were associated with lower risk of anemia.

Abstract
Anemia is a common extraintestinal manifestation of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), both in pediatric and in adult patients. Iron deficiency is the main cause of anemia in patients with IBD. Anemia is a clinically relevant comorbidity, with impact on patients' quality of life and it should be timely diagnosed and adequately treated. Currently, an active treatment approach is the recommended strategy, with evidence showing efficacy and safety of intravenous iron formulations. However, evidence in pediatric age remains scarce and no clinical recommendations exist for the diagnosis and treatment of this particular age group. The present document represents the first national consensus on the management of anemia in pediatric IBD and is therefore particularly relevant. The authors anticipate that the proposed recommendations will be useful in daily clinical practice for diagnosing and managing iron deficiency and iron-deficiency anemia in the pediatric population with IBD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) is involved in inducing inflammatory anemia. The potential effect of anti-TNF-α agents on anemia in inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) is still unknown. METHODS Analytical data and disease characteristics from 362 IBD patients [271 CD/91UC) treated with anti-TNF-α drugs were retrospectively collected. Effects on disease activity, blood markers and prevalence of anemia were assessed after 6 and 12 months of therapy. RESULTS 29.3% patients presented anemia at baseline, and significantly reduced to 14.4% and 7.8% after 6 and 12 months of therapy, respectively. Mean ± SD Hb levels increased significantly at month 6, and this increase was sustained at 12 months. Serum markers of iron metabolism increased significantly compared to baseline, as disease activity measured by C-reactive protein (CRP) was reduced. All these effects were observed independently for CD and UC, and were independent of iron supplementation during treatment. Anemia at baseline (OR 4.09; 95%CI 1.98-8.45) and elevated CRP (OR 3.45; 95CI 1.29-9.22) were independently associated with risk of persistent anemia, as well as iron replacement during therapy (OR 4.36; 95%CI 2.07-9.16). CONCLUSIONS Controlling disease activity with anti-TNF- α therapy significantly and independently associated with resolution of anemia in IBD, with no relevant role for iron replacement therapy.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel diseases is a group of inflammatory diseases. The pathogenesis of diseases is multifactorial, which may include a Western-type diet. Diseases occur with periods of recurrence and remission. Many factors can have a beneficial effect on reducing the frequency of recurrence and prolonging the remission period. Such ingredients include dietary fibre, mono- and polyunsaturated fatty acids, certain vitamins (D, C, and E), flavonoids, and minerals such as zinc and selenium. Properly selected nutrition might be an integral part of the treatment of patients with Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis.

Abstract
Introduction Anaemia is the most common extraintestinal manifestation of inflammatory bowel disease, which has a negative impact on quality of life. Aim To determinate the prevalence, risk factors, and aetiology of anaemia in newly diagnosed patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).Material and methods: We included 136 newly diagnosed patients with IBD. We analysed patient age, sex, laboratory tests, endoscopic and radiological examination, length of stay, and the course of hospitalisation. Results Anaemia at the time of IBD diagnosis was detected in 89 (65.4%) patients: 51 (57.3%) patients with ulcerative colitis vs. 38 (42.7%) patients with Crohn's disease; p = 0.052. Female patients were more frequently anaemic than male patients (59.6% vs. 40.4%; p = 0.001). Anaemia was more often diagnosed in Crohn's disease patients with ileocolonic involvement compared to other types of disease location (70.96% vs. 56.52%, respectively; p = 0.03). The prevalence of anaemia at the time of diagnosis for ulcerative colitis patients increased with disease extension: for extensive colitis anaemia was diagnosed in 64.71% compared to 35.29% in limited extension (p < 0.05). Anaemic patients were hospitalised for significantly longer than patients with no anaemia (7.95 ±3.8 days vs. 5.88 ±2.7 days for Crohn's disease; p = 0.02 and 9.02 ±5.0 days vs. 5.00 ±2.4 days for ulcerative colitis; p < 0.05). Conclusions Anaemia represents a frequent complication of IBD not only during the long-term course of the disease, but also at the moment of diagnosis. Anaemia is one of the factors extending the time of hospitalisation. Female sex and disease extent are strong determinant factors connected with anaemia.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION These Asian Working Group guidelines on diet in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) present a multidisciplinary focus on clinical nutrition in IBD in Asian countries. METHODOLOGY The guidelines are based on evidence from existing published literature; however, if objective data were lacking or inconclusive, expert opinion was considered. The conclusions and 38 recommendations have been subject to full peer review and a Delphi process in which uniformly positive responses (agree or strongly agree) were required. RESULTS Diet has an important role in IBD pathogenesis, and an increase in the incidence of IBD in Asian countries has paralleled changes in the dietary patterns. The present consensus endeavors to address the following topics in relation to IBD: (i) role of diet in the pathogenesis; (ii) diet as a therapy; (iii) malnutrition and nutritional assessment of the patients; (iv) dietary recommendations; (v) nutritional rehabilitation; and (vi) nutrition in special situations like surgery, pregnancy, and lactation. CONCLUSIONS Available objective data to guide nutritional support and primary nutritional therapy in IBD are presented as 38 recommendations.

Abstract
Inflammation, being a hallmark of many chronic diseases, including cancer, inflammatory bowel disease, rheumatoid arthritis, and chronic kidney disease, negatively affects iron homeostasis, leading to iron retention in macrophages of the mononuclear phagocyte system. Functional iron deficiency is the consequence, leading to anemia of inflammation (AI). Iron deficiency, regardless of anemia, has a detrimental impact on quality of life so that treatment is warranted. Therapeutic strategies include (1) resolution of the underlying disease, (2) iron supplementation, and (3) iron redistribution strategies. Deeper insights into the pathophysiology of AI has led to the development of new therapeutics targeting inflammatory cytokines and the introduction of new iron formulations. Moreover, the discovery that the hormone, hepcidin, plays a key regulatory role in AI has stimulated the development of several therapeutic approaches targeting the function of this peptide. Hence, inflammation-driven hepcidin elevation causes iron retention in cells and tissues. Besides pathophysiological concepts and diagnostic approaches for AI, this review discusses current guidelines for iron replacement therapies with special emphasis on benefits, limitations, and unresolved questions concerning oral versus parenteral iron supplementation in chronic inflammatory diseases. Furthermore, the review explores how therapies aiming at curing the disease underlying AI can also affect anemia and discusses emerging hepcidin antagonizing drugs, which are currently under preclinical or clinical investigation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The incidence and short-term outcome of anaemia in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are largely unknown. AIM To determine the incidence, prevalence and clinical outcome of anaemia in terms of resolution of anaemia within 12 months. We also planned to assess risk factors for anaemia in IBD. METHODS A random sample of 342 patients was obtained from the population-based IBD cohort of Örebro University Hospital, Sweden, consisting of 1405 patients diagnosed between 1963 and 2010. Haemoglobin measurements recorded from 1 January 2011 to 31 December 2013 were extracted from the Clinical Chemistry data system. RESULTS In Crohn's disease, the incidence rate of anaemia was 19.3 (95% CI: 15.4-23.7) per 100 person-years and the prevalence was 28.7% (CI: 22.0-36.2), compared with 12.9 (CI: 9.8-16.5) and 16.5% (CI: 11.2-22.9) for ulcerative colitis. Crohn's disease was associated with an increased incidence (OR = 1.60; CI: 1.02-2.51) and prevalence of anaemia (OR = 2.04; CI: 1.20-3.46) compared to ulcerative colitis. Stricturing disease phenotype in Crohn's disease (HR = 2.59; CI: 1.00-6.79) and extensive disease in ulcerative colitis (HR = 2.40; CI: 1.10-5.36) were associated with an increased risk of anaemia. Despite a higher probability of receiving specific therapy within 3 months from the diagnosis of anaemia, Crohn's disease patients had a worse outcome in terms of resolution of anaemia within 12 months (56% vs 75%; P = 0.03). CONCLUSIONS Anaemia is a common manifestation of IBD even beyond the first years after the diagnosis of IBD. Crohn's disease is associated with both an increased risk and a worse outcome.

Abstract
Anemia is the most common extraintestinal manifestation and complication of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Its etiology is multifactorial and mostly is a combination of iron deficiency anemia (IDA) and chronic anemia (ACD). Because of its high incidence in patients with IBD and its influence on their quality of life, regular screening is recommended. In case of IDA type of medication and route of administration should be determined by many factors such as general condition of the patient, IBD activity or anemia severity. Intravenous iron supplementation is the preferred route but may be associated with phosphate drop or even severe hypophosphatemia (HP). The mechanism of HP related to the intravenous iron infusions is not clearly known yet, but it might be related to the change of FGF-23 levels. What more not all parenteral forms of iron are equal and some may have a higher risk of HP than others.
