Abstract
BACKGROUND Inflammatory Bowel Diseases (IBD), Crohn's Disease (CD), and Ulcerative Colitis (UC) may have extraintestinal manifestations, including disorders of the urinary tract. The prevalence of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) in IBD patients remains unclear. AIMS Assess the prevalence of LUTS in patients with CD or UC, evaluate the variables implicated in any difference in LUTS prevalence between CD or UC, and assess any relationship between disease activity and LUTS METHODS: LUTS were evaluated in 301 IBD patients through standardised questionnaires: Bristol Female Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms (BFLUTS), NIH-Chronic Prostatitis Symptom Index (NIH-CPSI), and International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS). IBD activity was determined through the Crohn's Disease Activity Index (CDAI), Partial Mayo Score (PMS), and Total Mayo Score (TMS). RESULTS BFLUTS total score for females was 6 (3-11). Patients with a higher age at diagnosis had worse filling symptoms (p = 0.049) and a worse quality of life (p = 0.005). In males, 67.1% had mild, 28.5% moderate, and 4.4% severe IPSS symptom grades. The overall NIHCPSI prevalence of chronic prostatitis-like symptoms was 26.8%. The questionnaires revealed some significant differences in the subgroups analysed. CONCLUSION LUTS should be evaluated in IBD patients by urologic-validated questionnaires for prompt diagnosis and early treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The worldwide incidence of Crohn disease (CD) in childhood and adolescence has an increasing trend, with significant differences between different geographic regions and individual countries. This includes an increase in the incidence of CD in countries and geographic regions where CD was not previously prevalent. In response to the increasing incidence, the pediatric care landscape is facing growing challenges. OBJECTIVE This systematic review and meta-analysis were undertaken to comprehensively delineate the incidence rates of CD in pediatric populations across different countries and to explore potential influencing factors. METHODS We performed a systematic review of PubMed and Embase (via Ovid) for studies from January 1, 1970, to December 31, 2019. In addition, a manual search was performed in relevant and previously published reviews. The results were evaluated quantitatively. For this purpose, random effects meta-analyses and meta-regressions were performed to investigate the overall incidence rate and possible factors influencing the incidence. RESULTS A qualitative synthesis of 74 studies was performed, with 72 studies included in the meta-analyses and 52 in the meta-regressions. The results of our meta-analysis showed significant heterogeneity between the individual studies, which cannot be explained by a sample effect alone. Our findings showed geographical differences in incidence rates, which increased with increasing distance from the equator, although no global temporal trend was apparent. The meta-regression analysis also identified geographic location, UV index, and Human Development Index as significant moderators associated with CD incidence. CONCLUSIONS Our results suggest that pediatric CD incidence has increased in many countries since 1970 but varies widely with geographic location, which may pose challenges to the respective health care systems. We identified geographic, environmental, and socioeconomic factors that contribute to the observed heterogeneity in incidence rates. These results can serve as a basis for future research. To this end, implementations of internationally standardized and interoperable registries combined with the dissemination of health data through federated networks based on a common data model, such as the Observational Medical Outcomes Partnership, would be beneficial. This would deepen the understanding of CD and promote evidence-based approaches to preventive and interventional strategies as well as inform public health policies aimed at addressing the increasing burden of CD in children and adolescents.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recent data suggest a potential pathophysiological link between inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and multiple sclerosis (MS), two immune-mediated diseases both of which can have a significant impact on patients' quality of life. In the present manuscript, we investigate the association between IBD and MS in a German cohort of general practice patients. These results may have important implications for the screening and management of patients with IBD, as well as for further research into the pathophysiological mechanisms underlying both disorders. METHODS 4,934 individuals with IBD (11,140 with Crohn's disease (CD) and 13,794 with ulcerative colitis (UC)) as well as 24,934 propensity score matched individuals without IBD were identified from the Disease Analyzer database (IQVIA). A subsequent diagnosis of MS was analyzed as a function of IBD using Cox regression models. RESULTS After 10 years of follow-up, 0.9% and 0.7% of CD and UC patients but only 0.5% and 0.3% of matched non-IBD pairs were diagnosed with MS, respectively (pCD = 0.002 and pUC < 0.001). Both CD (HR: 2.09; 95% CI 1.28-3.39) and UC (HR: 2.35; 95% CI 1.47-3.78) were significantly associated with a subsequent MS diagnosis. Subgroup analysis revealed that the association between both CD and UC and MS was more pronounced among male patients. CONCLUSION The results of our analysis suggest a notable association between IBD and a subsequent MS diagnosis. These findings warrant further pathophysiological investigation and may have clinical implications for the screening of IBD patients in the future.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The most efficient way to prevent complications from inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is to provide patients with optimized care. Nonetheless, in Brazil, there is no validated methodology for evaluating health services recognized as comprehensive care units (CCU), making it difficult to assess the quality of care provided. OBJECTIVE To understand the current scenario, map the distribution of centers and identify strengths and weaknesses, considering local and regional characteristics. METHODS The study was carried out in three phases. Initially, the Brazilian Organization for Crohn's disease and colitis (GEDIIB) developed 22 questions to characterize CCU in Brazil. In the second phase, all GEDIIB members were invited to respond to the survey with the 11 questions considered most relevant. In the last phase, an interim analysis of the results was performed, using the IBM SPSS Statistics v 29.0.1.0 software. Descriptive statistics were used to characterize the center's profile. The chi-square test was used to compare categorical variables. RESULTS There were 53 responses from public centers (11 excluded). Most centers were concentrated in the Southeastern (n=22/52.4%) and only 1 (2.4%) in the Northern region of Brazil. Thirty-nine centers (92.9%) perform endoscopic procedures, but only 9 (21.4%) have access to enteroscopy and/or small bowel capsule endoscopy. Thirty-three centers (78.6%) offer infusion therapy locally, 26 (61.9%) maintain IBD patient records, 13 (31.0%) reported having an IBD nurse, 34 (81.0%) have specific evidence-based protocols and only 7 (16.7%) have a patient satisfaction methodology. In the private scenario there were 56 responses (10 excluded). There is also a concentration in the Southeastern and Southern regions. Thirty-nine centers (84.8%) have access to endoscopic procedures and 19 perform enteroscopy and/or small bowel capsule endoscopy, more than what is observed in the public environment. Infusion therapy is available in 24 centers (52.2%). Thirty-nine centers (84.8%) maintain a specific IBD patient database, 17 (37%) have an IBD nurse, 36 (78.3%) have specific evidence-based protocols, and 22 (47. 8%) apply a patient satisfaction methodology. CONCLUSION IBD CCU in Brazil were mainly located in the Southeastern and Southern regions of the country. Most centers have dedicated multidisciplinary teams and IBD specialists. There is still a current need to improve the proportion of IBD nurses in IBD care in Brazil. BACKGROUND •In Brazil, there is no validated methodology for evaluating health services recognized as comprehensive care units (CCU), making it difficult to assess the quality of care provided. BACKGROUND •Most CCU were concentrated in the Southeast region and only one (2.4%) in the Northeast region of Brazil. This pattern follows the epidemiological trends of IBD in the country. BACKGROUND •There is still difficulty in accessing enteroscopy and/or small bowel capsule endoscopy in the public health system. BACKGROUND •Most centers have dedicated multidisciplinary teams and IBD specialist doctors. BACKGROUND •There is still a current need to improve the proportion of nurses treating IBD in Brazil.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) may experience comorbidities involving metabolic syndrome (MetS). However, this association remains controversial. Our objective was to estimate the prevalence of MetS in patients with IBD and assess whether MetS is more strongly associated with ulcerative colitis (UC) or Crohn's disease (CD). DESIGN Systematic review and meta-analysis. DATA SOURCES PubMed, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, EMBASE and MEDLINE were searched from their inception to July 2022. ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA Observational studies reporting data regarding the rate of comorbid MetS among patients with IBD and published in English. DATA EXTRACTION AND SYNTHESIS The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses and the Meta-analysis of Observational Studies in Epidemiology reporting guidelines were followed. Pooled prevalence, ORs and 95% CIs were calculated using random-effects models. The Newcastle-Ottawa Scale and the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality checklist were used. Heterogeneity, sensitivity and stratified analyses were performed using R (V.4.2.1). RESULTS 11 eligible studies involving 2501 patients were included. Of these studies, four reported MetS prevalence separately by IBD phenotype, and only one contained a non-IBD comparison group. Overall, the methodological quality of the included studies was moderate. The pooled prevalence of MetS in IBD was 19.4% (95% CI 15.1% to 23.8%), with a moderate heterogeneity (I2=51.8%, Cochrane Q statistic=12.4, p=0.053). Stratified analyses demonstrated that the aggregate estimate of comorbid MetS was significantly higher in UC than in CD (38.2% vs 13.6%, χ2=4.88, p=0.03). We found a positive association between MetS and UC compared with CD (OR=2.11, 95% CI 1.19 to 3.74, p=0.01). Additionally, four studies identified that higher age was a risk factor associated with the development of MetS. CONCLUSIONS MetS is not rare in IBD, especially in UC. However, longitudinal studies are needed to further clarify the relationship between IBD and MetS. PROSPERO REGISTRATION NUMBER CRD42022346340.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study compared the real-world effectiveness and safety of α 4 β 7 -integrin inhibitor vedolizumab and anti-tumor necrosis factor alpha (anti-TNFα) inhibitor infliximab in biologic-naive patients with Crohn's disease (CD). METHODS EVOLVE was a retrospective, multicenter, medical chart review of biologic-naive adults with inflammatory bowel disease receiving vedolizumab or anti-TNFα treatment as first-line biologics in Canada, Greece, and the USA. Twelve-month outcomes were analyzed in vedolizumab- or infliximab-treated patients with moderate-to-severe CD (and subgroups with complicated and noncomplicated CD) including cumulative rates of clinical response, clinical remission, and mucosal healing, and incidence rates of serious adverse events (SAEs) and serious infections (SIs). Inverse probability weighting (IPW) was used to account for baseline differences between treatment groups. RESULTS Data were analyzed from 167 patients. In the IPW dataset (99 vedolizumab-treated and 63 infliximab-treated), adjusted 12-month clinical remission rates were 73.1% and 55.2%, respectively ( P = 0.31). Overall, effectiveness rates were similar across treatment and complicated/noncomplicated disease subgroups. Adjusted 12-month incidence rates (first occurrence/1000 person-years) of SAEs for vedolizumab vs. infliximab: 43.6 vs. 200.9 [hazard ratio (HR) 0.36 (0.09-1.54)]; SIs: 10.8 vs. 96.0 [HR 0.08 (<0.01-2.64)]. AE incidence was significantly lower in vedolizumab- vs. infliximab-treated patients for complicated [131.6 vs. 732.2; HR 0.19 (0.05-0.65)] and noncomplicated [276.3 vs. 494.8; HR 0.59 (0.35-0.99)] disease subgroups. CONCLUSION These real-world data on first-line biologics show no differences in 12-month effectiveness outcomes for vedolizumab- vs. infliximab-treated biologic-naive patients with CD. Vedolizumab may have a more favorable safety profile vs. infliximab in patients with complicated and noncomplicated disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We explored inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) coexistence using a global dataset. Investigating their epidemiology, risks, and impact, we aimed to enhance the understanding of concurrent diagnoses and patient outcomes. METHODS A retrospective population-based cohort study was conducted using deidentified patient data from the TriNetX database (2011-2022). We estimated the incidence and prevalence of EoE in patients with IBD, including both Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC), and vice versa. Risks of select immune-mediated conditions and disease complications were compared among patients with EoE, IBD, or concurrent diagnoses. RESULTS Our results included 174,755 patients with CD; 150,774 patients with UC; and 44,714 patients with EoE. The risk of EoE was significantly higher among patients with CD (prevalence ratio [PR] 11.2) or UC (PR 8.7) compared with individuals without IBD. The risk of IBD was higher in patients with EoE (CD: PR 11.6; UC: PR 9.1) versus those without EoE. A propensity-matched analysis of IBD patients revealed that, when comparing patients with and without EoE, the relative risk of immune-mediated comorbidities was significantly greater for celiac disease, IBD-related inflammatory conditions, eczema and asthma (CD: n = 1896; UC: n = 1231; p < 0.001). Patients with a concurrent diagnosis of EoE and IBD had a higher composite risk of IBD-related complications (CD: adjusted HR (aHR) 1.14, p < 0.005; UC: aHR 1.17, p < 0.01) and lower risk of food bolus impaction (aHR 0.445, p = 0.0011). CONCLUSION Simultaneous EoE and IBD increased IBD-related complications risk, needing more treatment (glucocorticoids, biologic therapy, abdominal surgery), while reducing EoE-related issues like food bolus impaction.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS The comorbidity between bipolar disorder (BD) and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) has been widely reported in observational studies. However, unclear whether this comorbidity reflects a shared genetic architecture. METHODS Leveraging large-scale genome-wide association study (GWAS) summary statistics of BD, IBD and its subtypes, ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD), we performed a genome-wide pleiotropic analysis to estimate heritability and genetic correlation, identify pleiotropy loci/genes, and explore the shared biological pathway. Mendelian randomization (MR) studies were subsequently employed to infer whether the potential causal relationship is present. RESULTS We found a positive significant genetic correlation between BD and IBD (rg = 0.10, P = 7.00 × 10-4), UC (rg = 0.09, P = 2.90 × 10-3), CD (rg = 0.08, P = 6.10 × 10-3). In cross-trait meta-analysis, a total of 29, 24, and 23 independent SNPs passed the threshold for significant association between BD and IBD, UC, and CD, respectively. We identified five novel pleiotropy genes including ZDHHC2, SCRN1, INPP4B, C1orf123, and BRD3 in both BD and IBD, as well as in its subtypes UC and CD. Pathway enrichment analyses revealed that those pleiotropy genes were mainly enriched in several immune-related signal transduction pathways and cerebral disease-related pathways. MR analyses provided no evidence for a causal relationship between BD and IBD. CONCLUSION Our findings corroborated that shared genetic basis and common biological pathways may explain the comorbidity of BD and IBD. These findings further our understanding of shared genetic mechanisms underlying BD and IBD, and potentially provide points of intervention that may allow the development of new therapies for these co-occurrent disorders.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Few population-based studies have investigated the prevalence and disease course of perianal manifestation in Crohn's disease. AIMS To analyse the prevalence and outcomes of perianal Crohn's disease including medical therapies and need for perianal surgery, over different therapeutic eras based on the time of diagnosis; cohort A (1977-1995), cohort B (1996-2008), and cohort C (2009-2018) METHODS: Patient inclusion lasted between 1977 and 2018. We followed patients prospectively, and regularly reviewed both in-hospital and outpatient records. We defined a perianal surgical procedure as any perianal incision and excision, fistulotomy, or abscess drainage. RESULTS We included 946 incident patients. Perianal disease at diagnosis was present in 17.4% (n = 165) of the total cohort, with a declining prevalence in cohorts A/B/C, respectively (24.7%/18.5%/13.2%; p = 0.001). By the end of follow-up, an additional 9.3% (n = 88) of the total cohort developed perianal disease. Cumulative immunosuppressive and biologic exposure increased over time; biologic use was higher in patients with perianal disease [pLog Rank < 0.001]. The overall rate of perianal surgery was 44.7% (113/253), with a probability of 28.3% (95% CI: 25.4-31.2) after 10 years, 41.0% (95% CI: 37.5-44.5) after 20 years, and 64.1% (95% CI: 59-69.2) after 30 years. There was no statistically significant difference in the probability of first perianal surgery among cohorts A/B/C [Log Rank = 0.594]. CONCLUSIONS The burden of perianal disease and perianal surgery rates were high in this cohort. Therapeutic strategy was accelerated in patients with perianal Crohn's over time with higher exposure to immunosuppressives and biologics. Surgical management of perianal disease remained unchanged amongst the cohorts.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite studies of dermatologic manifestations in adults with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), little is known about the prevalence of IBD-associated skin lesions and their correlation with IBD severity in children. We aimed to address these knowledge gaps in our single-center cohort of children with IBD. METHODS Retrospective chart review of 528 children and adolescents (≤18 years old) with IBD and seen at Mayo Clinic (Rochester, MN) between 1999 and 2017 was conducted. The Chi-Square/Fischer's exact test (with p ≤ .05 to signify statistical significance) was applied to compare categorical outcomes between Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC) patients. RESULTS In total, 425 IBD patients (64.9% CD, 53% males) and ≥1 dermatologic diagnosis were included. Presence of ≥1 cutaneous infection was recorded in 42.8% of participants. Acne was the most common non-infectious dermatologic condition (30.8%), followed by eczema (15.8%) and perianal skin tags (14.6%). Angular cheilitis (p = .024), keratosis pilaris (KP, p = .003), and perianal skin complications (i.e., skin tags, fistula, and abscesses; all p < .001) were more frequently diagnosed among children with CD, while fungal skin infections (p = .017) were more frequently diagnosed in UC patients. Severity of IBD correlated with higher prevalence of perianal fistula (p = .003), perianal abscess (p = .041), psoriasis (p < .001), and pyoderma gangrenosum (PG, p = .003). CONCLUSIONS Both IBD-specific and IBD-nonspecific dermatologic conditions are very prevalent in childhood IBD, the most common being infectious. Children with CD are more likely to experience angular cheilitis, KP, and perianal skin findings than those with UC. Perianal disease, psoriasis, and PG are associated with more severe IBD.

Abstract
The incidence and prevalence of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), namely Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, have increased in Latin America over the past few decades. Although incidence is accelerating in some countries in the region, other areas in Latin America are already transitioning into the next epidemiological stage-ie, compounding prevalence-with a similar epidemiological profile to the western world. Consequently, more attention must be given to the diagnosis and management of IBD in Latin America. In this Review, we provide an overview of epidemiology, potential local environmental risk factors, challenges in the management of IBD, and limitations due to the heterogenity of health-care systems, both public and private, in Latin America. Unresolved issues in the region include inadequate access to diagnostic resources, biological therapies, tight disease monitoring (including treat to target therapy, surveillance and prevention of complications, drug monitoring), and specialised IBD surgery. Local guidelines are an important effort to overcome barriers in IBD management. Advancements in long-term health-care policies will be important to promote early diagnosis, access to new treatments, and improvements in research in Latin America. These improvements will not only affect overall health care but will also lead to optimal prioritisation of IBD-related costs and resources and enhance the quality of life of people with IBD in Latin America.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are at increased risk after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). OBJECTIVES To compare the clinical outcomes within 30 days, one year, and five years of undergoing PCI. METHODS We conducted a retrospective cohort study of adult patients with IBD who underwent PCI in a tertiary care center from January 2009 to December 2019. RESULTS We included 44 patients, 26 with Crohn's disease (CD) and 18 with ulcerative colitis (UC), who underwent PCI. Patients with CD underwent PCI at a younger age compared to UC (57.8 vs. 68.9 years, P < 0.001) and were more likely to be male (88.46% of CD vs. 61.1% of UC, P < 0.03). CD patients had a higher rate of non-steroidal treatment compared to UC patients (50% vs. 5.56%, P < 0.001). Acute coronary syndromes (ACS) and/or the need for revascularization (e.g., PCI) were the most common clinical events to occur following PCI, in both groups. Of patients who experienced ACS and/or unplanned revascularization within 5 years, 25% of UC vs. 40% of CD had target lesion failure (TLF) due to in-stent restenosis and 10% of CD had TLF due to stent thrombosis. CONCLUSIONS We observed higher rates of TLF in IBD patients compared to the general population as well as differences in clinical outcomes between UC and CD patients. A better understanding of the prognostic factors and pathophysiology of these differences may have clinical importance in tailoring the appropriate treatment or type of revascularization for this high-risk group.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Inflammatory bowel diseases [IBD] are heterogeneous in the frequency and severity of their flare-ups. We aimed to describe disease activity patterns in a Danish nationwide paediatric IBD cohort. METHODS Paediatric patients [<18 years at diagnosis] with Crohn's disease [pCD] or ulcerative colitis [pUC] in the study period from 1996 to 2018 were identified in national registers. Disease activity [severe, moderate-to-mild, remission] was assessed at diagnosis according to medications prescribed, hospitalizations, and surgeries. RESULTS In total, 1965 pCD and 1838 pUC incident patients were included in the cohort. At diagnosis, severe disease activity was found in 87%/80% of pCD/pUC and in addition 6.1% of pUC patients had undergone a colectomy during the first year after diagnosis. Five years after diagnosis, the annual proportions of pCD/pUC with no disease activity were 70%/61%, and 10 years after diagnosis the proportions were 72%/64%. Colectomy was required in 6.1, 12, and 16% of pUC patients after 1, 5 and 10 years. No improvement of disease activity was seen in the proportion of prevalent pCD [N = 2515] and pUC [N = 2428] in the study period 2000-2018 concomitant with the introduction of biological treatment. However, decreasing disease activity was the most common pattern in both pCD and pUC [43 and 47%], respectively. CONCLUSIONS pIBD was characterized by a high proportion of patients with severe activity at diagnosis, followed by an improvement after 5 and 10 years of follow-up. Notably, the proportion of patients with no disease activity was unchanged when biological treatment was introduced and the number of colectomies in pUC remained high.

Abstract
Background Previous studies have reported associations of Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC) with the risks of extraintestinal cancers, but the causality remains unclear. Methods Using genetic variations robustly associated with CD and UC extracted from genome-wide association studies (GWAS) as instrumental variables. Nine types of extraintestinal cancers of European and Asian populations were selected as outcomes. We used the inverse variance weighted method as the primary approach for two-sample Mendelian randomization analysis. Sensitivity analyses were carried out to evaluate the reliability of our findings. Results In the European population, we found that CD showed a potential causal relationship with pancreatic cancer (OR: 1.1042; 95% CI: 1.0087-1.2088; P=0.0318). Meanwhile, both CD (outliers excluded: OR: 1.0208; 95% CI: 1.0079-1.0339; P=0.0015) and UC (outliers excluded: OR: 1.0220; 95% CI: 1.0051-1.0393; P=0.0108) were associated with a slight increase in breast cancer risk. Additionally, UC exhibited a potential causal effect on cervical cancer (outliers excluded: OR: 1.1091; 95% CI: 1.0286-1.1960; P=0.0071). In the East Asian population, CD had significant causal effects on pancreatic cancer (OR: 1.1876; 95% CI: 1.0741-1.3132; P=0.0008) and breast cancer (outliers excluded: OR: 0.9452; 95% CI: 0.9096-0.9822; P=0.0040). For UC, it exhibited significant causal associations with gastric cancer (OR: 1.1240; 95% CI: 1.0624-1.1891; P=4.7359×10-5), bile duct cancer (OR: 1.3107; 95% CI: 1.0983-1.5641; P=0.0027), hepatocellular carcinoma (OR: 1.2365; 95% CI: 1.1235-1.3608; P=1.4007×10-5) and cervical cancer (OR: 1.3941; 95% CI: 1.1708-1.6599; P=0.0002), as well as a potential causal effect on lung cancer (outliers excluded: OR: 1.1313; 95% CI: 1.0280-1.2449; P=0.0116). Conclusions Our study provided evidence that genetically predicted CD may be a risk factor for pancreatic and breast cancers in the European population, and for pancreatic cancer in the East Asian population. Regarding UC, it may be a risk factor for cervical and breast cancers in Europeans, and for gastric, bile duct, hepatocellular, lung, and cervical cancers in East Asians. Therefore, patients with CD and UC need to emphasize screening and prevention of site-specific extraintestinal cancers.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Obesity is on the rise within the inflammatory bowel disease population. The impact obesity has on the natural history of Crohn's disease (CD) is not well-understood. We aimed to describe the prevalence of obesity in a population-based cohort of newly diagnosed patients with CD, and the impact obesity had on disease phenotype and outcomes of corticosteroid use, hospitalization, intestinal resection, and development of fistulizing or penetrating disease. MATERIALS AND METHODS A chart review was performed on Olmsted County, Minnesota residents diagnosed with CD between 1970 and 2010. Data were collected on demographics, body mass index, CD location and behavior, CD-related hospitalizations, corticosteroid use, and intestinal resection. The proportion of individuals considered obese at the time of CD diagnosis was evaluated over time, and CD-associated complications were assessed with Kaplan-Meier survival analysis. RESULTS We identified 334 individuals diagnosed with CD between 1970 and 2010, of whom 156 (46.7%) were either overweight (27.8%) or obese (18.9%) at the time of diagnosis. The proportion of patients considered obese at the time of their diagnosis of CD increased 2-3 fold over the course of the study period. However, obesity did not have a significant impact on the future risk of corticosteroid use, hospitalization, intestinal resection, or development of penetrating and stricturing complications. CONCLUSIONS Obesity is on the rise in patients with CD, although in this cohort, there did not appear to be any negative association with future CD-related outcomes. Further prospective studies, ideally including obesity measures such as visceral adipose tissue assessment, are warranted to understand the implications of the rising prevalence of obesity on CD outcomes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) encompasses Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC). These two chronic inflammatory conditions can differ in severity, presentation, and anatomical localization, and can greatly affect quality of life if not managed properly. Given the many healthcare challenges during the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic, we studied the effects of the pandemic and corresponding changes to medical resources on surgical outcomes for patients with IBD. METHODS Deidentified data from patients who underwent a colectomy for CD or UC were collected from the National Surgical Quality Improvement Program database of the American College of Surgeons. We analyzed clinical factors and surgical outcomes between 2019 and 2020. RESULTS Patients with IBD were more likely to have lost >10% of their body mass before the operation in 2020. Operations for patients with UC were significantly shorter in the first year of the pandemic. Patients with CD were less likely to have a urinary tract infection or sepsis postoperatively in 2020, whereas patients with UC were more likely to require a repeat operation. Interestingly, both patient populations were less likely to undergo an emergency operation in 2020 than in 2019. CONCLUSIONS Colectomy outcomes for patients with CD in 2020 were similar or improved in comparison with those seen in 2019, whereas colectomies for UC saw a statistically but not clinically significant increase in the rate of repeat operations. Overall, these patients seem to have been well managed despite the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic-induced strain on the healthcare system.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Earlier studies on the possible association between eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) have been contradictory. METHODS Patients with biopsy-verified EoE diagnosed between 1990 and 2017 in Sweden (n = 1587) were age- and sex-matched with up to five general population reference individuals (n = 7808). EoE was defined using pathology reports from all 28 pathology centers in Sweden (the ESPRESSO study). Multivariate Cox regression then estimated hazard ratios for future IBD. IBD was defined based on the international classification of disease codes and histopathology codes. In secondary analyses, sibling comparators were used to further reduce potential familial confounding. Additionally, we performed logistic regression examining earlier IBD in EoE. RESULTS During follow-up until 2020, 16 (0.01%) EoE patients and 21 (0.003%) general population reference individuals diagnosed with IBD, corresponding to a 3.5-fold increased risk of future IBD (aHR = 3.56; 95% CI 1.79-7.11). EoE was linked to Crohn's disease (aHR = 3.39 [95% CI 1.02-9.60]) but not to ulcerative colitis (aHR = 1.37; 95% CI 0.38-4.86). Compared to their siblings, patients with EoE were at a 2.48-fold increased risk of IBD (aHR = 2.48; 95% CI 0.92-6.70). Earlier IBD was 15 times more likely in EoE patients than in matched reference individuals (odds ratio, 15.39; 95% CI 7.68-33.59). CONCLUSION In this nationwide cohort study, EoE was associated with a 3.5-fold increased risk of later IBD diagnosis. This risk increase may be due to shared genetic or early environmental risk factors, but also surveillance bias could play a role.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Controversial data have been reported regarding the prevalence of Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) in Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) population and IBD-related risk factors. The aim of the study was to assess the prevalence and risk factors associated with NAFLD and liver fibrosis in IBD participants compared with non-IBD controls. METHODS Cross-sectional, case-control study including 741 IBD cases and 170 non-IBD controls, matched by sex and age. All participants underwent liver ultrasound, transient elastography and laboratory tests. A logistic regression multivariable analysis was performed adjusting for classic metabolic risk factors and history of systemic steroid use. RESULTS The prevalence of NAFLD and significant liver fibrosis was 45 % and 10 % in IBD group, and 40 % and 2.9 % in non-IBD group (p = 0.255 and 0.062, respectively). Longer IBD duration (aOR 1.02 95% CI (1.001-1.04)) and older age at IBD diagnosis (aOR 1.02 95 % CI (1.001-1.04)) were independent risk factors for NAFLD in IBD group. Crohn´s Disease was an independent risk factor for significant liver fibrosis in participants with IBD and NAFLD (aOR 3.97 95 % CI (1.78-8.96)). NAFLD occurred at lower BMI levels in IBD group with NAFLD compared to non-IBD group with NAFLD (aOR 0.92 95 % CI (0.87-0.98)). CONCLUSIONS Although we found no differences in the prevalence of NAFLD and liver fibrosis between IBD group and non-IBD group, our findings suggest that liver fibrosis progression should be closely monitored in patients with concomitant CD and NAFLD, more in particular in those with long standing active disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a multisystem disease impacting various body systems including musculoskeletal, ocular, skin, hepatobiliary, pulmonary, cardiac, and haematological systems. The extraintestinal manifestations of IBD are frequent, common in both ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD), and impact the morbidity and mortality of patients. METHODS The Embase, Embase classic, and PubMed databases were searched between January 1979 and December 2021. A random effects model was performed to find the pooled prevalence of joint, ocular, and skin extraintestinal manifestations of UC and CD. RESULTS Fifty-two studies were included that reported on 352 454 patients. The prevalence of at least 1 joint, ocular, or skin extraintestinal manifestation in all IBD, UC, and CD was 24%, 27%, and 35% respectively. The prevalence between UC and CD were similar for pyoderma gangrenosum and axial joint manifestations. Ocular manifestations were found to be more common in CD than in UC. Peripheral joint manifestations and erythema nodosum were found to be more common in CD than UC. DISCUSSION To our knowledge, this is the first meta-analysis that reports on the prevalence of at least 1 joint, ocular, or skin extraintestinal manifestation in IBD. Our results are largely consistent with figures and statements quoted in the literature. However, our findings are based on significantly larger cohort sizes. Thus, our results have the potential to better power studies and more accurately counsel patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pediatric inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) has been known to be a disease predominant in the west. There is scarcity of data on pediatric IBD (P-IBD) from northern India. The objective of our study was to analyze the clinical spectrum of P-IBD in northern India. METHODS A retrospective analysis of 126 children (<18-year old) diagnosed with IBD from January 1999 to December 2019 was done on a pre-designed proforma. It was systematically entered in a MS Excel spreadsheet and analyzed using Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) version 21.0. The descriptive phenotypes of Ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD) were revised according to the Paris classification. RESULTS Of 126 children, UC was diagnosed in 76 (60.3%), CD in 44 (34.9%) and IBD-unclassified (IBD-U) in six (4.76%) patients. The mean age at diagnosis was 11.3 years; 38.8% were < 10 years with the male: female ratio of 1.6:1. Sixteen children (12.7%) had very early onset IBD (VEOBD). Overall, the median time to diagnosis in IBD was 12 months (interquartile range [IQR]: 3.25-24), which was as high as 52.5 months (IQR: 11-98) in CD. Pancolitis with bleeding per rectum and ileocolonic involvement with pain in abdomen were the commonest presentations in UC and CD, respectively. Stricturing disease was seen in 27% of CD cases. Relapses were seen in 46% (35/76) of U.C and 23% (10/44) of CD kids. Step-up treatment protocol was employed in them with the use of biologicals in 12% of cases. There was a 2.75-fold rise in the IBD cases in the last 10 years (2010-20). There was reduction in time to diagnosis (21 months vs. 90 months; p - 0.012) and empirical anti-tubercular therapy use (90% vs. 5.8%) in CD over two decades. CONCLUSION From our experience in a tertiary care centre in northern India, P-IBD is on the rise. UC is more common than CD. Pancolitis and ileocolonic disease are the commonest disease sites in UC and CD, respectively There is a significant delay in the time to diagnosis in CD. Stricturing disease was seen in a quarter of children with CD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Nutri-score is now widely available in food packages in Europe. AIM To study the overall nutritional quality of the diet in relation to risks of Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC), in the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC) cohort METHODS: We collected dietary data at baseline from validated food frequency questionnaires. We used a dietary index based on the UK Food Standards Agency modified nutrient profiling system (FSAm-NPS-DI) underlying the Nutri-Score label, to measure the nutritional quality of the diet. We estimated the association between FSAm-NPS-DI score, and CD and UC risks using Cox models stratified by centre, sex and age; and adjusted for smoking status, BMI, physical activity, energy intake, educational level and alcohol intake. RESULTS We included 394,255 participants (68.1% women; mean age at recruitment 52.1 years). After a mean follow-up of 13.6 years, there were 184 incident cases of CD and 459 incident cases of UC. Risk of CD was higher in those with a lower nutritional quality, that is higher FSAm-NPS-DI Score (fourth vs. first quartile: aHR: 2.04, 95% CI: 1.24-3.36; p-trend: <0.01). Among items of the FSAm-NPS-DI Score, low intakes of dietary fibre and fruits/vegetables/legumes/nuts were associated with higher risk of CD. Nutritional quality was not associated with risk of UC (fourth vs. first quartile of the FSAm-NPS-DI Score: aHR: 0.91, 95% CI: 0.69-1.21; p-trend: 0.76). CONCLUSIONS A diet with low nutritional quality as measured by the FSAm-NPS-DI Score is associated with a higher risk of CD but not UC.

Abstract
Limited knowledge is available about the relationship between food allergies or intolerances and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Clinicians frequently encounter patients who report food allergies or intolerances, and gastroenterologists struggle distinguishing between patients with organic disorders and those with functional disorders, which the patients themselves may associate with specific dietary components. This task becomes even more arduous when managing patients with significant underlying organic conditions, like IBD. The aim of this review is to summarize and emphasize any actual associations between food allergies and intolerances and inflammatory diseases, such as ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease. Through a narrative disceptation of the current literature, we highlight the increased prevalence of various food intolerances, including lactose, fructose, histamine, nickel, and non-celiac gluten sensitivity, in individuals with IBD. Additionally, we explore the association between increased epithelial barrier permeability in IBD and the development of food sensitization. By doing so, we aim to enhance clinicians' awareness of the nutritional management of patients with IBD when facing complaints or evidence of food allergies or intolerances.

Abstract
It has been reported that migraine is more common in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) than in general. However, the impact of migraine on the development of IBD has not yet been elucidated. The aim of this study was to determine the association between migraine and the development of IBD. This nationwide population-based cohort study was conducted using the Korean National Health Insurance Service (NHIS) database. A total of 10,628,070 people aged 20 years or older who had undergone a national health examination conducted by the NHIS in 2009 were followed up until 2017. The study population was divided into two groups according to the presence or absence of migraine. We analyzed the incidence of newly developed IBD, Crohn's disease (CD), or ulcerative colitis (UC) during the follow-up period. The incidence of IBD was significantly higher in patients with migraine (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR] with 95% confidence interval [95%CI] of 1.31 [1.173-1.468], p < 0.001), CD (aHR with 95%CI of 1.58 [1.237-2.013], p < 0.001) and UC (aHR with 95%CI of 1.26 [1.106-1.424], p < 0.001) than in those without migraine. After 5 years of follow-up, those with migraine showed curves implying cumulative incidences of IBD with a steep increase, especially for CD. In subgroup analysis, migraine was associated with the risk of UC in males (aHR, 1.431 vs. 1.117; interaction p = 0.042). Migraine is significantly associated with the development of IBD. Patients with migraine should be monitored carefully for the development of IBD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The incidence of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) in children is on the increase worldwide. Growth disorders are common in pediatric patients with inflammatory bowel disease. The aim of this paper is to investigate anthropometric indicators, including height and weight in children with inflammatory bowel disease in Saxony, one of the German federal states, and to evaluate growth trends in patients by comparing their height and weight with that of healthy children in Germany. METHODS In Saxony, all children and adolescents with IBD were registered in the Saxon Pediatric IBD Registry from 2000 to 2014. The data used are therefore based on a total area-wide survey over 15 years. For this study, 421 datasets of children and adolescents aged 0-14 years with Crohn's disease (CD) (n = 291) or ulcerative colitis (UC) (n = 130) were analyzed. Z-score and percentile calculations were used to compare differences between IBD patients and the general population. RESULTS The children with CD or UC (both sexes) had a significant lower weight at diagnosis (the mean weight z-score had negative values) versus the general population. The weight values lay mostly below P50 (the 50th percentile, median), more precisely, mostly between P10 and P50 of the body weight child growth curve for corresponding sexes (KiGGS 2003-2006). The height values of both sexes at diagnosis lay also mostly below P50 (the 50th percentile, median) of the child body growth curve for corresponding sexes (KiGGS 2003-2006), i.e. the mean height z-score was negative. But only the children with CD had a significant lower height, more precisely, mostly between P25 and P50 versus the general population (KIGGS). For children with UC the difference was not significant. CONCLUSION In pediatric patients with IBD the possibility of growth disturbance, mainly in the form of weight retardation, is very probable.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Timely access to quality medical care impacts patient outcomes in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). In a nationwide study from the epidemiology group of the Israeli IBD research nucleus we aimed to assess the impact of residence and socioeconomic status (SES) on disease outcomes. METHODS We utilized data from the 4 health maintenance organizations in Israel, representing 98% of the population. Regions were defined as central, northern and southern; SES was graded from lowest to highest (from 1 to 4) as per Israel Central Bureau of Statistics. The primary outcome was steroid dependency, with secondary outcomes of surgeries and biologic therapy use. RESULTS A total of 28 216 IBD patients were included: 15 818 (56%) Crohn's disease (CD) and 12 398 (44%) ulcerative colitis; 74%, 12% and 14% resided in central, southern, and northern Israel, respectively (SES 1: 21%, SES 4: 12%). Lower SES was associated with steroid dependency (20% in SES 1 vs 12% in SES 4 in CD; P < .001; and 18% vs 12% in ulcerative colitis; P < .001), and higher surgery rates (12% vs 7%; P < .001, and 1.4% vs 0.7%; P = .115, respectively). There were higher steroid dependency and CD surgery rates in peripheral vs central regions. In multivariable models, both SES and peripheral region were independently associated with poorer outcomes. CONCLUSIONS We found that lower SES and peripheral residence were associated with deleterious outcomes in IBD. This should be considered by policymakers and should encourage strategies for improving outcomes in populations at risk.

Abstract
GOAL The goal of this study was to evaluate the impact of coexisting familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) on Crohn's disease (CD) patients' phenotype and disease course in an endemic region for FMF. BACKGROUND CD and FMF are inflammatory diseases characterized by recurrent abdominal pain and fever attacks. The impact of coexisting FMF on CD patients' phenotype and disease course is currently unknown. MATERIALS AND METHODS We reviewed the medical records of 210 adult CD patients who were regularly followed up at a tertiary gastroenterology clinic between November 2006 and April 2018. The patients were divided into FMF positive (CD-FMF) and FMF negative (CD-control) groups. The severity of CD was assessed by the rate of hospitalization because of CD, the need for biological therapy, and whether surgery was performed for CD. RESULTS Eight (3.8%) of 210 CD patients have concomitant FMF, which is 35 to 40 times higher than expected in an endemic region for FMF. Baseline demographic parameters, location/behavior of the CD, and initial therapeutic regimens were similar between the 2 groups. The prevalence of peripheral arthritis was significantly higher in CD-FMF group (37.5% vs. 10.4%, respectively, P =0.04). A significantly greater proportion of the CD-FMF patients had received biological therapy (50% vs. 11.9%; P =0.012). Steroid dependence and CD-related hospitalization rates in the CD-FMF group were relatively higher but were not statistically significant (37.5% vs. 15.3 and 62.5% vs. 41.1%). CONCLUSIONS Our findings indicate that the disease course of CD tends to be more severe in patients with coexisting FMF.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Clostridioides difficile infections (CDIs) are common among patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and can mimic and exacerbate IBD flares, thus warranting appropriate testing during flares. AIMS To examine recent trends in rates of CDI and associated risk factors in hospitalized IBD patients, which may better inform targeted interventions to mitigate the risk of infection. METHODS This is a retrospective analysis using the Nationwide Readmissions Database from 2010 to 2020 of hospitalized individuals with Crohn's disease (CD) or ulcerative colitis (UC). Longitudinal changes in rates of CDI were evaluated using International Classification of Diseases codes. Multivariable logistic regression evaluated the association between patient- and hospital-related factors and CDI. RESULTS There were 2,521,935 individuals with IBD who were hospitalized at least once during the study period. Rates of CDI in IBD-related hospitalizations increased from 2010 to 2015 (CD: 1.64%-3.32%, p < 0.001; UC: 4.15%-5.81%, p < 0.001), followed by a steady decline from 2016 to 2020 (CD: 3.15%-2.27%, p < 0.001; UC: 5.04%-4.27%, p < 0.001). In multivariable models, CDI was associated with the Charlson-Deyo comorbidity index, public insurance, and hospital size. CDI was associated with increased mortality. CONCLUSIONS Rates of CDI among hospitalized patients with IBD had initially increased, but have declined since 2015. Increased comorbidity, large hospital size, public insurance, and urban teaching hospitals were associated with higher rates of CDI. CDI was associated with increased mortality in hospitalized patients with IBD. Continued vigilance, infection control, and treatment of CDI can help continue the trend of declining infection rates.

Abstract
Crohn's disease (CD) is a chronic inflammatory disease with increasing incidence worldwide and unclear etiology. Its clinical manifestations vary depending on location, extent, and severity of the lesions. In order to diagnose Crohn's disease, medical professionals need to comprehensively analyze patients' multimodal examination data, which includes medical imaging such as colonoscopy, pathological, and text information from clinical records. The processes of multimodal data analysis require collaboration among medical professionals from different departments, which wastes a lot of time and human resources. Therefore, a multimodal medical assisted diagnosis system for Crohn's disease is particularly significant. Existing network frameworks find it hard to effectively capture multimodal patient data for diagnosis, and multimodal data for Crohn's disease is currently lacking. In addition,a combination of data from patients with similar symptoms could serve as an effective reference for disease diagnosis. Thus, we propose a multimodal information diagnosis network (MICDnet) to learn CD feature representations by integrating colonoscopy, pathology images and clinical texts. Specifically, MICDnet first preprocesses each modality data, then uses encoders to extract image and text features separately. After that, multimodal feature fusion is performed. Finally, CD classification and diagnosis are conducted based on the fused features. Under the authorization, we build a dataset of 136 hospitalized inspectors, with colonoscopy images of seven areas, pathology images, and clinical record text for each individual. Training MICDnet on this dataset shows that multimodal diagnosis can improve the diagnostic accuracy of CD, and the diagnostic performance of MICDnet is superior to other models.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), mainly Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC) are chronic diseases causing a lifelong burden and often need sustained treatment throughout a patient's life. Both the incidence and prevalence of IBD has increased in the last decade. Evidence showing the drug costs to IBD patients in Finland is limited. No earlier study has evaluated the drug costs of IBD patients in Finland. Here, we thoroughly assessed these costs. METHODS A structured questionnaire, hospital records and national registers were combined to comprehensively assess the actual costs of drug purchases made by IBD patients. The study sample comprised 561 patients. RESULTS Total annual mean drug costs were 1428€ per patient. CD patients had higher annual costs than UC patients at 2369€ and 902€, respectively. CD patients also had higher costs in the immunosuppressant, corticosteroid, and biologic subgroup analyses. In addition, C-reactive protein, serum albumin and fecal calprotectin levels had a correlation with costs if the patient had needed corticosteroids. In addition, women reported having a worse quality of life (QoL) but had lower total costs. CONCLUSIONS Pharmaceutical drugs are major factors that affect the costs of IBD treatment, and the increased use of biologics has raised these costs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Limited reports exist regarding invasive fungal diseases (IFDs) in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients. OBJECTIVES This study aims to investigate the incidence and risk factors of IFDs, specifically invasive candidiasis, aspergillosis and pneumocystosis, in IBD patients in South Korea using nationwide data. PATIENTS/METHODS A population-based retrospective cohort of 42,913 IBD patients between January 2010 and December 2018 was evaluated using the Health Insurance Review and Assessment database. The primary outcome was the incidence of IFDs, including invasive candidiasis, aspergillosis and pneumocystosis, while the secondary outcome involved analysing the risk factors associated with each specific infection. RESULTS The study included a total of 42,913 IBD patients, with 29,909 (69.7%) diagnosed with ulcerative colitis (UC) and 13,004 (30.3%) diagnosed with Crohn's disease (CD). IFDs occurred in 166 IBD patients (0.4%), with 93 cases in UC patients and 73 cases in CD patients. The incidence rates of invasive candidiasis, aspergillosis and pneumocystosis in IBD patients were 0.71 per 1000 person-years (PYs), 0.15 per 1000 PYs and 0.12 per 1000 PYs, respectively. The cumulative incidence of invasive candidiasis (adjusted p-value <.001) and Pneumocystosis (adjusted p-value = .012) was found to be higher in CD patients than in UC patients. Each IFD had different risk factors, including IBD subtypes, age at diagnosis, anti-tumour necrotic factor agents or the Charlson comorbidity index. CONCLUSION Based on nationwide data in South Korea, this study shows that IFDs occur consistently in patients with IBD, albeit with a low frequency.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC) are characterized by chronic intestinal and systemic inflammation. The extraintestinal sequelae of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are major contributors to disease morbidity and significantly affect patients' quality of life. Here, we evaluated the association between IBD and subsequent depression or anxiety disorder in a large outpatient collective from Germany. METHODS 15,864 individual IBD patients (CD: n = 6,791, UC: n = 9073) and 15,864 nearest neighbor propensity score matched patients without IBD were included from the Disease Analyzer database (IQVIA). Diagnoses of depression and anxiety disorders were compared between IBD and non-IBD patients during a five-year follow-up period using Kaplan-Meier estimators and Cox-regression models. RESULTS After 5 years of follow-up, depression was diagnosed in 14.4% of CD patients versus 10.2% of matched pairs (p < 0.001) and in 13.1% of UC patients versus 10.1% of matched pairs (p < 0.001). In line, the incidence of anxiety order was significantly higher among CD (4.7% vs. 4.4%, p = 0.009) and UC patients (4.3% vs. 3.5%, p = 0.005). Regression analysis confirmed a significant association between IBD and both mental conditions (Hazard Ratio (HR)CD/depression: 1.40, HRUC/depression: 1.32, HRCD/anxiety disorder: 1.21, HRUC/anxiety disorder: 1.28). Subgroup analyses revealed a stronger association for CD and depression (HR: 1.51) and UC and depression (HR:1.49) among male patients as well as UC and anxiety disorders (HR: 1.51) among female patients. CONCLUSION Our data argue for a significant association between IBD and mental diseases including depression and anxiety disorders. Although further pathophysiological research is warranted, we hypothesize that specific psychological screening measures in IBD patients could improve quality of life and outcome.

Abstract
In Crohn's disease (CD), gut dysbiosis is marked by the prevalence of pathogenic bacterial species. Although several microbes have been reported as risk factors or causative agents of CD, it is not yet clear which is the real trigger of the disease. Thirty years ago, a new pathovar of Escherichia coli strain was isolated in the ileal mucosa of CD patients. This strain, called adherent invasive E. coli (AIEC), for its ability to invade the intestinal mucosa, could represent the causative agent of the disease. Several authors studied the mechanisms by which the AIEC penetrate and replicate within macrophages, and release inflammatory cytokines sustaining inflammation. In this review we will discuss about the role of AIEC in the pathogenesis of CD, the virulence factors mediating adhesion and invasion of AIEC in mucosal tissue, the environmental conditions improving AIEC survival and replication within macrophages. Finally, we will also give an overview of the new strategies developed to limit AIEC overgrowth.

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
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
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Previous studies have reported a possible prodrome in multiple sclerosis (MS) defined by nonspecific symptoms including mood disorder or genitourinary symptoms and increased health care use detected several years before diagnosis. This study aimed to evaluate agnostically the associations between diseases and symptoms diagnosed in primary care and the risk of MS relative to controls and 2 other autoimmune inflammatory diseases with similar population characteristics, namely lupus and Crohn disease (CD). METHODS A case-control study was conducted using electronic health records from the Health Improvement Network database in the United Kingdom and France. We agnostically assessed the associations between 113 diseases and symptoms in the 5 years before and after diagnosis in patients with subsequent diagnosis of MS. Individuals with a diagnosis of MS were compared with individuals without MS and individuals with 2 other autoimmune diseases, CD and lupus. RESULTS The study population consisted of patients with MS (n = 20,174), patients without MS (n = 54,790), patients with CD (n = 30,477), and patients with lupus (n = 7,337). Twelve ICD-10 codes were significantly positively associated with the risk of MS compared with controls without MS. After considering ICD-10 codes suggestive of neurologic symptoms as the first diagnosis of MS, 5 ICD-10 codes remained significantly associated with MS: depression (UK: odds ratio 1.22, 95% CI 1.11-1.34), sexual dysfunction (1.47, 1.11-1.95), constipation (1.5, 1.27-1.78), cystitis (1.21, 1.05-1.39), and urinary tract infections of unspecified site (1.38, 1.18-1.61). However, none of these conditions was selectively associated with MS in comparisons with both lupus and CD. All 5 ICD-10 codes identified were still associated with MS during the 5 years after diagnosis. DISCUSSION We identified 5 health conditions associated with subsequent MS diagnosis, which may be considered not only prodromal but also early-stage symptoms. However, these health conditions overlap with prodrome of 2 other autoimmune diseases; hence, they lack specificity to MS.

Abstract
Background Prior epidemiological studies have established a correlation between inflammatory cytokines and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). However, the nature of this relationship remains uncertain. Mendelian randomization (MR) study has the advantages of avoiding confounding and reverse causality compared with traditional observational research. Objective We aimed to evaluate whether genetically determined circulating levels of cytokines are associated with the risk of IBD by using the MR approach. Materials and methods We selected genetic variants associated with circulating levels of 28 cytokines at the genome-wide significance level from a genome-wide association study (GWAS) including 8,293 individuals. Summary-level data for IBD (including Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis) were obtained from the International Inflammatory Bowel Disease Genetics Consortium and UK Biobank. We performed the primary analysis using the inverse-variance weighted method, as well as sensitivity analyses to test the stability of our results. We subsequently replicated the results of IBD in the UK Biobank dataset. A reverse MR analysis was also conducted to evaluate the possibility of reverse causation. Results Genetically predicted elevated levels of interleukin-17 (IL-17) and monokine induced by interferon-gamma (MIG) were associated with an increased risk of IBD[odds ratio (OR): 1.52, 95% confidence interval (CI):1.10-2.08, P =0.010 for IL-17 and OR: 1.58, 95% CI: 1.24-2.00, P = 1.60×10-4 for MIG]. Moreover, we observed suggestive associations between β-NGF and MIP-1β with the risk of Crohn's disease (OR: 0.71, 95% CI: 0.52-0.98, P = 0.039) and ulcerative colitis (OR: 1.08, 95% CI: 1.01-1.15, P= 0.019). In the reverse MR study, there was no evidence of causal effects of IBD and these cytokines. Conclusion Our study suggests the potential causal associations of IL-17 and MIG with IBD. Further studies are needed to determine whether IL-17 and MIG or their downstream effectors could be useful in the management of IBD.

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 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
OBJECTIVE Post-colonoscopy colorectal cancer (PCCRC) is a key quality indicator of colonoscopy, and PCCRC rates are high in the IBD population. Rectal cancer, an important risk factor for PCCRC among patients with Crohn's disease (CD), has not previously been examined. METHODS Swedish adult patients with CD who underwent a colonoscopy within 36 months before a rectal cancer diagnosis between 2001 and 2015 were identified through the National Patient and Cancer registers. Their medical records were reviewed and a root-cause analysis and a sub-categorization according to the World Endoscopic Organization (WEO) were performed. RESULTS Of 24 patients with CD and PCCRC in the rectum, 79% were men and the median age was 50 (IQR 45-59) years. The median disease duration was 21.5 (IQR 19-30) years. The cancer was located in the distal 5 cm of the rectum in 63% of the cases. Retroversion in the rectum was reported in only one case. The most common plausible explanation for PCCRC was 'possible missed lesion, prior examination adequate' (63%); when adding retroversion in the rectum, instead 77% of examinations were considered negative but deemed as inadequate. The most common PCCRC sub-category was non-interval type C (54%) and B (37%). Among those with type C, 38% should have been included in surveillance according to present guidelines. CONCLUSION Better adherence to surveillance guidelines and more meticulous follow-up is warranted. The importance of performing rectal palpation and retroversion in the rectum is underscored and we suggest that this is included in the WEO algorithm.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION There is growing interest in the prediagnostic phase of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and in the overlap of IBD with other diseases. We described and compared use of any prescription medication between individuals with and without IBD in a 10-year period preceding diagnosis. METHODS Based on cross-linked nationwide registers, we identified 29,219 individuals diagnosed with IBD in Denmark between 2005 and 2018 and matched to 292,190 IBD-free individuals. The primary outcome was use of any prescription medication in years 1-10 before IBD diagnosis/matching date. Participants were considered as medication users if they redeemed ≥1 prescription for any medication in the World Health Organization Anatomical Therapeutic Chemical (ATC) main groups or subgroups before diagnosis/matching. RESULTS The IBD population had a universally increased use of medications compared with the matched population before IBD diagnosis. At 10 years before diagnosis, the proportion of users was 1.1-fold to 1.8-fold higher in the IBD population in 12 of 14 ATC main groups of medication ( P -value < 0.0001). This applied across age, sex, and IBD subtypes, although it was the most pronounced for Crohn's disease (CD). Two years before diagnosis, the IBD population had a steep increase in medication use for several organ systems. When analyzing therapeutic subgroups of medication, the CD population exhibited 2.7, 2.3, 1.9, and 1.9 times more users of immunosuppressants, antianemic preparations, analgesics, and psycholeptics, respectively, than the matched population 10 years before diagnosis ( P -value < 0.0001). DISCUSSION Our findings demonstrate universally increased medication use years before IBD, especially CD, diagnosis and indicates multiorgan involvement in IBD.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Extraintestinal manifestations (EIMs) of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are challenging clinical situation. No prospective study assessed remission risk factors of EIMs. The aim of this study was to prospectively investigate the epidemiology, risk factors of EIM occurrence, and EIM remission in a large IBD cohort. METHODS We conducted a cross-sectional study in 30 French referral centers. Between May 2021 and June 2021, all consecutive patients attending to hospital appointment were systematically invited to fill out a questionnaire. RESULTS A total of 1,971 consecutive patients with IBD were analyzed. There were 1,056 women (53.8%), and the median age of patients was 41 years (31-54). The median disease duration was 11 years (1-18). Overall, 544 (27.6%) had at least 1 EIM. In 20.2% of cases, patients had multiple EIMs. The most frequent EIMs were rheumatological (19%) and dermatological (10%) manifestations. Immunosuppressant treatment (odds ratio [OR] = 2.56; P < 0.001) was a risk factor of EIM, while the Montreal A3 classification (OR = 0.61, P = 0.023) and male gender (OR = 0.61, P < 0.001) were associated with a lower risk of EIM occurrence. IBD current clinical remission (OR = 2.42; P < 0.001) and smoking cessation (OR = 2.98; P < 0.001) were associated factors of EIM remission. Conversely, age at IBD diagnosis (OR = 0.98; P < 0.018) was associated with a lower risk of EIM remission. DISCUSSION One quarter of patients had at least 1 EIM. Beyond factors associated with the presence of EIMs, patients with IBD current clinical remission and smoking cessation are more likely to achieve EIM remission, while increasing age at IBD diagnosis is associated with decreased chance of remission.

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 AIM Patients with chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) may develop inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Characterization of small bowel disease in this cohort is scarce. Here, we sought to determine the prevalence and characteristics of small bowel disease and evaluate the clinical utility of video capsule endoscopy (VCE) for its diagnosis. METHODS A retrospective study was performed on patients with CGD who were evaluated for gastrointestinal disease with VCE as a part of ongoing natural history studies at a single academic center. VCEs were reviewed for inflammatory findings and severity of disease utilizing the Capsule Endoscopy Crohn's Disease Activity Index. Radiographic studies and endoscopies performed within 30 days of VCE were compared with small bowel inflammatory findings. RESULTS Twenty-six VCEs corresponding to 25 patients were found. The majority of patients were male and White; mean age was 28 years old. The majority (85%) demonstrated presence of small bowel inflammatory findings on VCE including strictures, ulcers, erosions, and erythema. Duodenal and ileal inflammatory disease on endoscopy did not correlate with disease on VCE. Moderate-severe colonic disease correlated with moderate-severe disease on VCE. Radiography did not correlate with disease on VCE. Prolonged small bowel transit time correlated with moderate-severe small bowel disease. CONCLUSIONS Small bowel IBD was highly prevalent in this cohort of patients with CGD. Limitations included small sample size. Given that radiology and duodenal/ileal disease did not correlate with VCE findings, VCE-driven investigation of small bowel disease should be considered in patients with CGD-associated IBD, particularly those with colonic disease.

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.

Perianal Fistulas Are Associated with Persistently Higher Direct Health Care Costs in Crohn's Disease: A Population-Based Study. Dig Dis Sci 2023; 68:4350-4359.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The economic impact of perianal fistulas in Crohn's disease (CD) has not been formally assessed in population-based studies in the biologic era. AIM To compare direct health care costs in persons with and without perianal fistulas. METHODS We performed a longitudinal population-based study using administrative data from Ontario, Canada. Adults (> 17 years) with CD were identified between 2007 and 2013 using validated algorithms. Perianal fistula positive "cases" were matched to up to 4 "controls" with CD without perianal fistulas based on age, sex, geographic region, year of CD diagnosis and duration of follow-up. Direct health care costs, excluding drug costs from private payers, were estimated annually beginning 5 years before (lookback) and up to 9 years after perianal fistula diagnosis (study completion) for cases and a standardized date for matched controls. RESULTS A total of 581 cases were matched to 1902 controls. The annual per capita direct cost for cases was similar at lookback compared to controls ($2458 ± 6770 vs $2502 ± 10,752; p = 0.952), maximally greater in the first year after perianal fistulas diagnosis ($16,032 ± 21,101 vs $6646 ± 13,021; p < 0.001) and remained greater at study completion ($11,358 ± 17,151 vs $5178 ± 9792; p < 0.001). At perianal fistula diagnosis, the cost difference was driven primarily by home care cost (tenfold greater), publicly-covered prescription drugs (threefold greater) and hospitalizations (twofold greater), whereas at study completion, prescription drugs were the dominant driver (threefold greater). CONCLUSION In our population-based cohort, perianal fistulas were associated with significantly higher direct healthcare costs at the time of perianal fistulas diagnosis and sustained long-term.
