Fecal microbiota transplantation ameliorates atherosclerosis in mice with C1q/TNF-related protein 9 genetic deficiency. Exp Mol Med 2022; 54:103-114. [PMID: 35115674 PMCID: PMC8894390 DOI: 10.1038/s12276-022-00728-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 17] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/05/2021] [Revised: 10/20/2021] [Accepted: 10/28/2021] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Despite the strong influence of the gut microbiota on atherosclerosis, a causal relationship between atherosclerosis pathophysiology and gut microbiota is still unverified. This study was performed to determine the impact of the gut microbiota on the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis caused by genetic deficiency. To elucidate the influence of the gut microbiota on atherosclerosis pathogenesis, an atherosclerosis-prone mouse model (C1q/TNF-related protein 9-knockout (CTRP9-KO) mice) was generated. The gut microbial compositions of CTRP9-KO and WT control mice were compared. Fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) was performed to confirm the association between gut microbial composition and the progression of atherosclerosis. FMT largely affected the gut microbiota in both CTRP9-KO and WT mice, and all transplanted mice acquired the gut microbiotas of the donor mice. Atherosclerotic lesions in the carotid arteries were decreased in transplanted CTRP9-KO mice compared to CTRP9-KO mice prior to transplantation. Conversely, WT mice transplanted with the gut microbiotas of CTRP9-KO mice showed the opposite effect as that of CTRP9-KO mice transplanted with the gut microbiotas of WT mice. Here, we show that CTRP9 gene deficiency is related to the distribution of the gut microbiota in subjects with atherosclerosis. Transplantation of WT microbiotas into CTRP9-KO mice protected against the progression of atherosclerosis. Conversely, the transplantation of CTRP9-KO microbiotas into WT mice promoted the progression of atherosclerosis. Treating atherosclerosis by restoring gut microbial homeostasis may be an effective therapeutic strategy.

Increased Prevalence of Myocardial Infarction and Stable Stroke Proportions in Patients with Inflammatory Bowel Diseases in Quebec in 1996-2015. J Clin Med 2022; 11:jcm11030686. [PMID: 35160136 PMCID: PMC8837182 DOI: 10.3390/jcm11030686] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/27/2021] [Revised: 12/29/2021] [Accepted: 01/26/2022] [Indexed: 02/05/2023] Open
Abstract
Background: Chronic inflammatory diseases are linked to an increased risk of atherothrombotic events, but the risk associated with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is controversial. We therefore examined the risk of and risk factors for myocardial infarction (MI) and stroke in IBD patients. Methods: We used the public health administrative database from the Province of Quebec, Canada, to identify IBD patients newly diagnosed between 1996 and 2015. The incidence and prevalence of MI and stroke in IBD patients were compared to those for the Canadian population. Results: A cohort of 35,985 IBD patients was identified. The prevalence but not incidence rates of MI were higher in IBD patients (prevalence: 3.98%; incidence: 0.234) compared to the Canadian rates (prevalence: 2.0%; incidence: 0.220), while the prevalence and incidence rates of stroke were not significantly higher in the IBD patients (prevalence: 2.98%; incidence: 0.122, vs. Canadian rates: prevalence: 2.60%; incidence: 0.297). We identified age, female gender, hyperlipidemia, diabetes, and hypertension (p < 0.001 for each) as significant risk factors associated with MI and stroke in IBD. Exposure to biologics was associated with a higher incidence of MI (IRR: 1.51; 95% CI: 0.82–2.76; p = 0.07) in the insured IBD population. Conclusions: An increased prevalence but not incidence of MI and no increased risk of stroke were identified in this population-based IBD cohort.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are at increased risk of type 2 diabetes (T2D), but the underlying mechanisms remain elusive. We aimed to determine the impact of small and large bowel resections on the risk of developing T2D in patients with IBD. METHODS: We conducted a nationwide, prospective study of all IBD patients undergoing small bowel resection (Crohn’s disease [CD]) and large bowel resection (CD and ulcerative colitis [UC]) in Denmark (1996–2018). Each patient was matched with up to 5 patients with IBD and no history of bowel resection. We used Cox proportional hazards regression models to estimate adjusted hazard ratios (aHRs) of T2D. RESULTS: We included 2469 patients with CD and small bowel resection, 1361 patients with CD and large bowel resection, and 3787 patients with UC and large bowel resection. Small bowel resection in CD patients was associated with lower risk of T2D (aHR 0.65, 95% CI, 0.44–0.92), compared with matched patients with CD and no bowel resection. Large bowel resection in patients with CD or UC was associated with aHRs of 0.95 (95% CI, 0.67–1.31) and 1.25 (95% CI, 1.03–1.51), respectively, compared with matched patients with CD or UC and no bowel resection. CONCLUSION: Patients with CD and small bowel resection have a lower risk of T2D, whereas patients with UC and large bowel resection have a higher risk of T2D, compared with patients with IBD and no bowel resection history. The underlying mechanisms remain to be explored.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The mortality and risk factors of severe disease and death due to arterial and venous thromboembolism (ATE and VTE, respectively) in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) remain unclear, especially in Asia. AIMS This study aimed to reveal the mortality and risk factors of TE in IBD patients in Japan. METHODS In the primary surveillance, responses to questionnaires regarding the number of cases of severe TE and TE-associated death in IBD patients in a span of over the past 10 years were obtained from 32 institutions in Japan. In the secondary surveillance, detailed data about IBD patients with TE were collected. The characteristics, laboratory data, therapy status, and situation at the time of TE development were retrospectively collected, and the data were compared between the patients with and without severe TE and TE-associated death. RESULTS The incidence of TE was 1.89% among 31,940 IBD patients. The frequencies of severe TE and TE-associated mortality were 10.7% and 1.0% among the total IBD and TE with IBD patients, respectively. The only risk factor for severe ATE and ATE-associated death was ischemic heart disease. The independent risk factors for severe VTE and VTE-associated death were age (≤ 45 years old), the site of VTE, and disease severity, with anti-TNF therapy as a potential negative risk factor. Patients with severe VTE had a high risk of developing persistent VTE and sequelae. CONCLUSION Unlike ATE, the incidence of VTE was comparable in Asian and Western countries. Therapeutic and prophylactic strategies for managing IBD-associated TE in Asia are urgently needed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) have been associated with increased risk of cardiovascular events. We aimed to investigate the outcomes of myocardial infarction (MI) in patients with IBD. METHODS We performed a cross-sectional study utilizing data from the Nationwide Inpatient Sample from the years 1998 to 2010. ICD-9-CM codes were used to identify patients with Crohn's disease (CD) (555.X), ulcerative colitis (UC) (556.X), and acute MI (410.X). Outcomes in patients with MI with and without IBD were compared. Univariate analysis was performed. Multivariate logistic regression was used to determine the effect of UC and CD on in-hospital MI mortality after adjusting for confounders. RESULTS A total of 2,629,161 MI, 3,607 UC and 3784 CD patients were analyzed. UC (odds ratio [OR], 1.12; 95% CI 0.98-1.29) and CD (OR 0.99; 95% CI 0.86-1.15) did not affect in-hospital mortality in patients with MI. There was no difference between in-hospital mortality in patients with MI with or without UC (7.75% vs. 7.05%; p = 0.25) or in patients with MI with or without CD (6.50% vs. 6.59%; p = 0.87). The length of stay (LOS) was higher in IBD patients and total charges were statistically higher in patients with UC as compared to non-IBD patients ($65,182 vs. $53,542; p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS This study shows that IBD does not impact in-hospital mortality from MI. However, patients with MI with IBD have longer LOS. Patients with UC have higher total hospitalization charges than patients with MI without IBD. Further prospective studies are needed to assess the outcomes of MI in IBD patients.

Abstract
Patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are at increased risk of thrombotic events. Therapies for IBD have the potential to modulate this risk. The aims of this Evidence-Based Guideline were to summarize available evidence and to provide practical recommendations regarding epidemiological aspects, prevention and drug-related risks of venous and arterial thrombotic events in patients with IBD. A virtual meeting took place in May 2020 involving 14 international IBD experts and 3 thrombosis experts from 12 countries. Proposed statements were voted upon in an anonymous manner. Agreement was defined as at least 75% of participants voting as 'fully agree' or 'mostly agree' with each statement. For each statement, the level of evidence was graded according to the Scottish Intercollegiate Guidelines Network (SIGN) grading system. Consensus was reached for 19 statements. Patients with IBD harbour an increased risk of venous and arterial thrombotic events. Thromboprophylaxis is indicated during hospitalization of any cause in patients with IBD. Disease activity is a modifiable risk factor in patients with IBD, and physicians should aim to achieve deep remission to reduce the risk. Exposure to steroids should be limited. Antitumour necrosis factor agents might be associated with a reduced risk of thrombotic events.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) remain the leading cause of morbidity and mortality despite aggressive treatment of traditional risk factors. Chronic inflammation plays an important role in the initiation and progression of CVDs. Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a systemic state of inflammation exhibiting increased levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines including tumour necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin (IL)-1β, and IL-6. Importantly, IBD is associated with increased risk for CVDs especially in women and young adults, including coronary artery disease, stroke, thromboembolic diseases, and arrhythmias. Potential mechanisms underlying the increased risk for CVDs in IBD patients include increased levels of inflammatory cytokines and oxidative stress, altered platelet function, hypercoagulability, decreased numbers of circulating endothelial progenitor cells, endothelial dysfunction, and possible interruption of gut microbiota. Although IBD does not appear to exacerbate the traditional risk factors for CVDs, including hypertension, hyperlipidaemia, diabetes mellitus, and obesity, aggressive risk stratifications are important for primary and secondary prevention of CVDs for IBD patients. Compared to 5-aminosalicylates and corticosteroids, anti-TNF-α therapy in IBD patients was consistently associated with decreasing cardiovascular events. In the absence of contraindications, low-dose aspirin and statins appear to be beneficial for IBD patients. Low-molecular-weight heparin is also recommended for patients who are hospitalized with acute IBD flares without major bleeding risk. A multidisciplinary team approach should be considered for the management of IBD patients.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs) are systemic diseases that manifest not only in the gut and gastrointestinal tract, but also in the extraintestinal organs in many patients. The quality of life for patients with IBD can be substantially affected by these extraintestinal manifestations (EIMs). It is important to have knowledge of the prevalence, pathophysiology, and clinical presentation of EIMs in order to adapt therapeutic options to cover all aspects of IBD. EIMs can occur in up to 24% of patients with IBD before the onset of intestinal symptoms, and need to be recognized to initiate appropriate diagnostic procedures. EIMs most frequently affect joints, skin, or eyes, but can also affect other organs, such as the liver, lung, and pancreas. It is a frequent misconception that a successful therapy of the intestinal inflammation will be sufficient to treat EIMs satisfactorily in most patients with IBD. In general, peripheral arthritis, oral aphthous ulcers, episcleritis, or erythema nodosum can be associated with active intestinal inflammation and can improve on standard treatment of the intestinal inflammation. However, anterior uveitis, ankylosing spondylitis, and primary sclerosing cholangitis usually occur independent of disease flares. This review provides a comprehensive overview of epidemiology, pathophysiology, clinical presentation, and treatment of EIMs in IBD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Up to 25% of patients with ulcerative colitis (UC) will require hospitalization for severe flare. In patients hospitalised for severe flare, who previously experienced multiple drug failures, including steroids and anti-TNF agents, new quick-acting medical options are needed. Tofacitinib is effective in refractory UC and has a rapid onset of action. AIM To evaluate effectiveness and safety of tofacitinib as rescue therapy in patients hospitalised for UC flare. METHODS We conducted an observational and multicentre study with both retrospective and prospective collections in 14 GETAID centres. The primary objective was to assess the survival without colectomy following tofacitinib initiation in patients hospitalised for a UC flare. We determined rates of clinical response, clinical remission, and steroid-free clinical remission at week 6 and week 14 and safety. RESULTS Fifty-five patients were included (49 with prior infliximab failure and 19 previously exposed to ciclosporin). With a median follow-up of 6.5 months (interquartile range [IQR] [3-12.3]), rate of colectomy-free survival was estimated at 78.9% (95 CI [68.5-90.9]) and 73.6% (95 CI [61.9-87.3]) at 3 and 6 months, respectively. Rates of clinical response, clinical remission and steroid-free clinical remission were 60%, 45.5% and 37.5% at week 6 and 41.8%, 34.5% and 32.7% at week 14. Regarding safety, no death was observed, three patients withdrew tofacitinib due to adverse events. Two herpes zoster infections occurred in patients aged over 60 years old. No venous thrombotic or major adverse cardiovascular events occurred. CONCLUSION Tofacitinib appears as a promising option in patients hospitalised with a UC flare but needs further validation in controlled trials.

What Links an Increased Cardiovascular Risk and Inflammatory Bowel Disease? A Narrative Review. Nutrients 2021; 13:nu13082661.

Abstract
Several studies have shown increased rates of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in patients suffering from inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), particularly in cases of early atherosclerosis and myocardial infarction. IBD most frequently begins at an early age, patients usually present normal weight and remain under constant care of a physician, as well as of a nutritionist. Therefore, the classical risk factors of CVD are not reflected in the higher prevalence of CVD in the IBD population. Still, both groups are characterised by chronic inflammation and display similar physiopathological mechanisms. In the course of IBD, increased concentrations of pro-inflammatory cytokines, such as C-reactive protein (CRP) and homocysteine, may lead to endothelial dysfunctions and the development of CVD. Furthermore, gut microbiota dysbiosis in patients with IBD also constitutes a risk factor for an increased susceptibility to cardiovascular disease and atherosclerosis. Additionally, diet is an essential factor affecting both positively and negatively the course of the aforementioned diseases, whereas several dietary patterns may also influence the association between IBD and CVD. Thus, it is essential to investigate the factors responsible for the increased cardiovascular (CV) risk in this group of patients. Our paper attempts to review the role of potential inflammatory and nutritional factors, as well as intestinal dysbiosis and pharmacotherapy, in the increased risk of CVD in IBD patients.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). The increased risk of CVD concerns an increased risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE), atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) and heart failure (HF), at corresponding relative risks of 2.5, 1.2 and 2.0, respectively, as compared with the general population. Especially young patients under the age of 40 years run a relatively high risk of these complications when compared with the general population. Chronic systemic inflammation causes a hypercoagulable state leading to the prothrombotic tendency characteristic of VTE, and accelerates all stages involved during atherogenesis in ASCVD. Increased awareness of VTE risk is warranted in patients with extensive colonic disease in both ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease, as well as during hospitalization, especially when patients are scheduled for surgery. Similarly, critical periods for ASCVD events are the 3 months prior to and 3 months after an IBD-related hospital admission. The increased ASCVD risk is not fully explained by an increased prevalence of traditional risk factors and includes pro-atherogenc lipid profiles with high levels of small dense low-density lipoprotein cholesterol particles and dysfunctional high-density lipoprotein cholesterol. Risk factors associated with HF are location and extent of inflammation, female sex, and age exceeding 40 years. A dose-dependent increase of overall CVD risk has been reported for corticosteroids. Immunomodulating maintenance therapy might reduce CVD risk in IBD, not only by a direct reduction of chronic systemic inflammation but possibly also by a direct effect of IBD medication on platelet aggregation, endothelial function and lipid and glucose metabolism. More data are needed to define these effects accurately. Despite accumulating evidence on the increased CVD risk in IBD, congruent recommendations to develop preventive strategies are lacking. This literature review provides an overview of current knowledge and identifies gaps in evidence regarding CVD risk in IBD, by discussing epidemiology, pathogenesis, and clinical management.

Abstract
There is increased risk of cardiovascular disease in patients with chronic inflammatory disorders such as rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, and systemic lupus erythematosus. Studies have shown association between cardiovascular disease (eg, myocardial infarction, heart failure, stroke) and inflammatory bowel disease. Medications such as infliximab and adalimumab (monoclonal antibodies to tumor necrosis factor α) may help decrease the inflammatory burden and cardiovascular risk; however, there have been reports of hypertriglyceridemia and worsening of moderate to severe heart failure with these medications. Janus kinase inhibitors, such as tofacitinib, have been associated with hyperlipidemia and thromboembolism. We aim to discuss clinical and imaging modalities to assess cardiovascular risk in inflammatory bowel disease patients and review the role of various medications with respect to cardiovascular disease in this population.

Abstract
Patients with inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) have an increased risk of thrombosis, possibly due to changes in blood cells and molecules involved in hemostasis. They have increased platelet counts and reactivity as well as increased platelet-derived large extracellular vesicles. Coagulation is continuously activated in patients with IBD, based on measured markers of thrombin generation, and the anticoagulant functions of endothelial cells are damaged. Furthermore, fibrinogen is increased and fibrin clots are denser. However, pathogenesis of thrombosis in patients with IBD appears to differ from that of patients without IBD. Patients with IBD also take drugs that might contribute to risk of thrombosis, complicating the picture. We review the features of homeostasis that are altered in patients with IBD and possible mechanisms of this relationship.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS There is evidence that several inflammatory diseases are associated with increased cardiovascular risk. Whether this is true for inflammatory bowel diseases remains controversial. We aimed to assess this risk, corrected for the effects of conventional vascular risk factors and IBD disease activity. METHODS We conducted a cohort study in British general practice and hospital records from the Clinical Practice Research Datalink. We extracted the records of subjects with IBD and matched controls from 1997 to 2017. We conducted Cox proportional hazards and self-controlled case series analyses to examine the associations of IBD, disease activity, and hospitalization with the risk of myocardial infarction, stroke, and cardiovascular death in a manner attempting to remove the effect of likely confounders. RESULTS We identified 31,175 IBD patients (16,779 UC, 10,721 Crohn's disease, and 3675 unclassifiable cases) and 154,412 matched controls. Five hundred thirty-two myocardial infarctions, 555 strokes, and 469 cardiovascular deaths were observed in IBD cases. Our Cox regression models, adjusted for potential confounders, showed no significant excess of vascular events for IBD patients overall. There was, however, an increased hazard of myocardial infarction in ambulatory patients for acute disease (hazard ratio, 1.83 [1.28-2.62]) and chronic activity (hazard ratio, 1.69 [1.24-2.30]). This effect of disease activity was confirmed in our case series analysis. CONCLUSIONS Though we have found no evidence of an overall excess of vascular events in IBD patients, our findings of increased risk with more active disease suggest the potential for anti-inflammatory therapies to reduce cardiovascular risk in this patient group.

Carotid Plaque Assessment Reclassifies Patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease into Very-High Cardiovascular Risk. J Clin Med 2021; 10:jcm10081671.

Abstract
The addition of carotid ultrasound into cardiovascular (CV) risk scores has been found to be effective in identifying patients with chronic inflammatory diseases at high-CV risk. We aimed to determine if its use would facilitate the reclassification of patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) into the very high-CV-risk category and whether this may be related to disease features. In this cross-sectional study encompassing 186 IBD patients and 175 controls, Systematic Coronary Risk Evaluation (SCORE), disease activity measurements, and the presence of carotid plaques by ultrasonography were assessed. Reclassification was compared between patients and controls. A multivariable regression analysis was performed to evaluate if the risk of reclassification could be explained by disease-related features and to assess the influence of traditional CV risk factors on this reclassification. After evaluation of carotid ultrasound, a significantly higher frequency of reclassification was found in patients with IBD compared to controls (35% vs. 24%, p = 0.030). When this analysis was performed only on subjects included in the SCORE low-CV-risk category, 21% IBD patients compared to 11% controls (p = 0.034) were reclassified into the very high-CV-risk category. Disease-related data, including disease activity, were not associated with reclassification after fully multivariable regression analysis. Traditional CV risk factors showed a similar influence over reclassification in patients and controls. However, LDL-cholesterol disclosed a higher effect in controls compared to patients (beta coef. 1.03 (95%CI 1.02-1.04) vs. 1.01 (95%CI 1.00-1.02), interaction p = 0.035) after adjustment for confounders. In conclusion, carotid plaque assessment is useful to identify high-CV risk IBD patients.

Abstract
Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases remain the main cause of death in western societies. This contributes to the appearance of new diagnostic and treatment methods addressed to reduce the burden of cardiovascular diseases. In the last decades new imaging methods have emerged; furthermore, routine biomarkers were found to be useful in cardiovascular risk stratification. Data reviewed in this article emphasize the multifactorial etiology of cardiovascular disease. The authors describe the role of inflammation in the precipitation and progression of atherosclerosis and atrial fibrillation. Affordable and well-known inflammatory markers can be used alone or in combination with new imaging methods for a better cardiovascular risk stratification. Coronary computed tomographic angiography findings and inflammatory markers are capable to identify patients with high risk of major adverse cardiovascular events or atrial fibrillation. Furthermore, they also have an important role in the choice of treatment strategy and follow-up.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW This article describes the neurologic sequelae of various nutritional micronutrient deficiencies, celiac disease, inflammatory bowel disease, and liver disease. Where relevant, appropriate treatments for these conditions are also discussed. The developing field of the microbiome and nervous system interaction is also outlined. RECENT FINDINGS Pathology in the gastrointestinal system can affect the nervous system when it causes micronutrient deficiency, when immune responses created by the gastrointestinal system affect the nervous system, when toxins caused by gastrointestinal organ failure harm the nervous system, and when treatments aimed at a gastrointestinal medical condition cause damage to the nervous system as a side effect. SUMMARY This article addresses familiar concepts and new developments in the treatment and understanding of diseases that affect the gut and nervous system simultaneously.

Abstract
Patients with inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) have an increased risk of thrombosis. The interaction between inflammation and coagulation has extensively been studied. It is well-- known that some drugs can influence the haemostatic system, but several concerns on the association between therapies and increased risk of thrombosis remain open. While biologics seem to have a protective role against thrombosis via their anti-inflammatory effect, some concerns about an increased risk of thrombosis with JAK inhibitors have been raised. We conducted a literature review to assess the association between biologics/small molecules and venous/arterial thrombotic complications. An increased risk of venous and arterial thrombosis was found in patients treated with corticosteroids, whereas anti-TNFα were considered protective agents. No thromboembolic adverse event was reported with vedolizumab and ustekinumab. In addition, thromboembolic events rarely occurred in patients with ulcerative colitis (UC) after therapy with tofacitinib. The overall risk of both venous and arterial thrombosis was not increased based on the available evidence. Finally, in the era of JAK inhibitors, the treatment should be individualized by evaluating the pre-existing potential thrombotic risk balanced with the intrinsic risk of the medication used.

Abstract
Statin therapy is used ubiquitously to reduce cholesterol levels, and recent studies have revealed statin use may be associated with a reduced risk of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). A comprehensive assessment of the literature was performed to investigate whether statin use may influence the risk of new-onset IBD. We searched the PubMed/MEDLINE, Cochrane, Web of Science, and Scopus online databases, for articles published up to July 31, 2020. Hazard ratios (HR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI) were used. We identified five retrospective studies, with seven arms, comprising >10 million participants, consisting of 89,324 cases of IBD (statin users: 14,494 versus non-users: 74,830) detected during a mean follow-up of 8.6 years. Overall, statin use was associated with a reduced risk of new-onset IBD (HR = 0.81; 95% CI, 0.63 to 1.06; P = 0.129, I2 = 81.3%). Pooled results indicated a non-significant reduced risk of new-onset CD (HR = 0.94; 95% CI, 0.72 to 1.25; P = 0.684, I2 = 85.9%) and new-onset UC (HR = 0.89; 95% CI, 0.70 to 1.12; P = 0.306, I2 = 92.5%) with statin use. Statin use may confer a protective effect in reducing the risk of new-onset IBD. Indeed, this study provides novel and intriguing insights into a potential preventive agent for IBD.

Abstract
AIM Due to conflicting data, we aimed to investigate the association of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) with cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors at late adolescence in a cross-sectional population-based study. METHODS A total of 1 144 213 Jewish Israeli adolescents who underwent a general health examination prior to enlistment at median age of 17.1 years from 1988 to 2016 were included. Covariate data included demographics, blood pressure, resting heart rate and risk factors associated with CVD. RESULTS Overall, 2372 cases of IBD were identified, including 1612 cases of Crohn's disease (68%). Univariate analysis showed marginally lower systolic and diastolic blood pressure in patients with IBD with no difference following multivariate analysis. Diagnosis of Crohn's disease in males was associated with lower rates of overweight (15.8% vs 21.2%, P < .001) and obesity (3.7% vs 6.1% P = .003), whereas females with Crohn's disease had a lower rate of overweight (14.0% vs 17.9% P = .04) but not obesity. Patients with ulcerative colitis did not differ from controls in terms of overweight or obesity. Patients with Crohn's disease had an increased prevalence of hereditary hypercoagulability (odds ratio 16.9, 95% confidence interval 8.0-35.7, P < .001). CONCLUSION Significant risk factors for CVD were not present in adolescents with IBD.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) includes both ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease, which are well recognised as chronic systemic and immune-mediated conditions that frequently involve extraintestinal manifestations. Although comorbidities have long been the subject of research in other chronic inflammatory diseases, this concept is also emerging in IBD. Many pathologies have been linked to IBD, including cardiovascular disease, which is the main cause of death in developed countries. IBD patients are at increased risk of conditions such as early atherosclerosis and myocardial infarction or venous thrombosis and pulmonary thromboembolism. The aim of this review is to make an approximation of the physiopathology of the different manifestations of cardiovascular disease in patients with IBD and how to prevent them.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), comprising ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease, is characterized by widespread inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract with systemic manifestations. Inflammation is one of the driving forces for the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis and its dreaded complications like myocardial infarction (MI). Yet, the association between IBD and myocardial infarction has not been thoroughly established. Myocardial infarction in IBD patients was predominantly seen in young women during the active disease process. At the same time, elevated levels of C-reactive protein and other pro-inflammatory markers were observed in both IBD and atherosclerosis. Increasing evidence suggests inflammation inhibits fibrinolysis, expresses procoagulants, and suppresses anticoagulants promoting thrombosis formation. Moreover, the alteration of gut microbiota impacts the pathogenesis of inflammation and predisposes one to ischemic heart disease. Accordingly, all IBD patients should be screened and counseled on lifestyle modifications for the traditional risk factors of atherosclerosis. Future researchers should consider conducting more clinical trials on anti-inflammatory medication targeting atherosclerosis and therapeutics, while targeting the gut microbiota to reverse the inflammatory atherosclerotic process.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with ulcerative colitis (UC) are at elevated risk of cardiovascular disease vs the general population, despite a lower prevalence of traditional risk factors, including hyperlipidemia. Mechanistic studies in patients with rheumatoid arthritis and psoriasis suggest that tofacitinib restores serum lipids to preinflammation levels by reversing inflammation-induced cholesterol metabolism changes. We reviewed data on lipid levels and cardiovascular events, alongside recommendations for managing lipid levels during tofacitinib treatment in patients with UC, based on up-to-date expert guidelines. METHODS Data were identified from a phase 3/open-label, long-term extension (OLE) tofacitinib UC clinical program (cutoff May 27, 2019). Literature was identified from PubMed (search terms "lipid," "cholesterol," "lipoprotein," "cardiovascular," "inflammation," "atherosclerosis," "tofacitinib," "rheumatoid arthritis," "psoriasis," "inflammatory bowel disease," "ulcerative colitis," "hyperlipidemia," and "guidelines") and author knowledge. Data were available from 4 phase 3 clinical trials of 1124 patients with moderately to severely active UC who received ≥1 dose of tofacitinib 5 or 10 mg twice daily in induction (two identical trials), maintenance, and OLE studies (treatment duration ≤6.8 years; 2576.4 patient-years of drug exposure). RESULTS In the OLE study, tofacitinib treatment was not associated with major changes from baseline in total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, triglycerides, total cholesterol/high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol/high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, with lipid levels and ratios generally remaining stable over time. The major adverse cardiovascular events incidence rate was 0.26/100 patient-years (95% confidence interval, 0.11-0.54). CONCLUSIONS Lipid levels and ratios remained generally unchanged from baseline in the OLE study after tofacitinib treatment, and major adverse cardiovascular events were infrequent. Long-term studies are ongoing. CLINICALTRIALS.GOV IDENTIFIERS NCT01465763, NCT01458951, NCT01458574, NCT01470612.

Abstract
Patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are at an increased risk of ischemic heart disease. However, there is limited evidence on how their outcomes after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) compare with those without IBD. All PCI-related hospitalizations from the National Inpatient Sample from 2004 to 2015 were included, stratified into 3 groups: no-IBD, Crohn's disease (CD), and ulcerative colitis (UC). We assessed the association between IBD subtypes and in-hospital outcomes. A total of 6,689,292 PCI procedures were analyzed, of which 0.3% (n = 18,910) had an IBD diagnosis. The prevalence of IBD increased from 0.2% (2004) to 0.4% (2015). Patients with IBD were less likely to have conventional cardiovascular risk factors and more likely to undergo PCI for an acute indication, and to receive bare metal stents. In comparison to patients without IBD, those with IBD had reduced or similar adjusted odds ratios (OR) of major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (CD OR 0.69, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.62 to 0.78; UC OR 0.75, 95% CI 0.66 to 0.85), mortality (CD: OR 0.94, 95% CI 0.79 to 1.11; UC OR 0.35, 95% CI 0.27 to 0.45) or acute cerebrovascular accident (CD: OR 0.73, 95% CI 0.60 to 0.89; UC: OR 0.94, 95% CI 0.77 to 1.15). However, IBD patients had an increased odds for major bleeding (CD: OR 1.42 95% CI 1.23 to 1.63, and UC: OR 1.35 95% CI 1.16 to 1.58). In summary, IBD is associated with a decreased risk of in-hospital post-PCI complications other than major bleeding that was significantly higher in this group. Long term follow-up is required to evaluate the safety of PCI in IBD patients from both bleeding and ischemic perspectives.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic, relapsing disease of unknown etiology involving gastrointestinal tract. IBD comprises two main entities: ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease. Several studies showed increased risk of cardiovascular complications in chronic inflammatory disorders, especially during IBD relapses. Endothelium plays a role in physiologic regulation of vascular tone, cell adhesion, migration and resistance to thrombosis. Also, its dysfunction is associated with increased risk of atherosclerosis development. There are several potential links between chronic IBD-related inflammatory processes and the risk of cardiovascular disease, but insight into pathogenetic pathways remains unclear. We present the current concepts and review of adult and pediatric studies on the risk of CVD in IBD.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) causes systemic vascular inflammation. The increased risk of venous as well as arterial thromboembolic phenomena in IBD is well established. More recently, a relationship between IBD and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) has been postulated. Systemic inflammatory diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis and systemic lupus erythematosus, have well characterized cardiac pathologies and treatments that focus on prevention of disease associated ASCVD. The impact of chronic inflammation on ASCVD in IBD remains poorly characterized. This manuscript aims to review and summarize the current literature pertaining to IBD and ASCVD with respect to its pathophysiology and impact of medications in order to encourage further research that can improve understanding and help develop clinical recommendations for prevention and management of ASCVD in patients with IBD.

Abstract
Background and objectives: Electrocardiograph abnormalities (i.e., QT interval prolongation) have been described in inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). We aimed to measure the QT interval in a cohort of patients with IBD and to analyze its relationship with clinical and inflammatory activity. Materials and Methods: We performed a cross-sectional study that included 38 IBD outpatients and 38 “age- and sex-matched” healthy controls. Nine patients had active IBD, and 29 were in clinical remission. Among the latter, 10 patients had sustained (lasting >1 year) and 19 had short-term remission (≤1 year). Corrected QT (QTc) interval was measured on standard 12-lead electrocardiograph. A systematic review of the literature on studies investigating the QT interval in patients with IBD was also performed. Results: QTc interval values were similar between IBD patients and healthy controls (417.58 ± 22.05 ms vs. 409.13 ± 19.61 ms, respectively; p: 0.479). Patients with active IBD had significantly higher QTc values (435.11 ± 27.31 ms) than both controls (409.13 ± 19.61 ms) and patients in remission (412.14 ± 17.33 ms) (p: 0.031). Post hoc analysis showed that the difference in QTc values between active IBD and remission was attributable to the group of patients with sustained remission (p < 0.05). Lastly, a significant correlation between QTc interval and C-reactive protein (CRP) values was observed (Spearman test: r = 0.563; p: 0.0005). Conclusions: Our study demonstrates an association between QTc duration and both clinical and inflammatory activity in patients with IBD. The higher the CRP value, the longer is the QTc duration. For practical purposes, all patients with active IBD should undergo a standard ECG. Prescription of drugs able to modify the QT interval should be avoided in patients with active IBD. The systematic review of the literature indicated that this is the first published study demonstrating an association between the QTc duration and CRP values in patients with IBD.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Chronic inflammation has been implicated in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis and cardiovascular disease. Data linking the severity of inflammatory bowel disease to coexisting cardiovascular disease are scarce. The aim of the present study was to investigate whether inflammatory bowel disease patients with coexistent cardiovascular disease have more severe disease. METHODS We included 103 inflammatory bowel disease patients with coexisting cardiovascular disease compared to 206 age- and sex-matched inflammatory bowel disease patients without cardiovascular disease derived from three referral inflammatory bowel disease Centers. Traditional cardiovascular disease factors and parameters of inflammatory bowel disease severity were compared between the two groups. RESULTS Cardiovascular disease was diagnosed after the inflammatory bowel disease diagnosis in 56.6% of cases. No significant difference was found in the prevalence of surrogate markers of severity (inflammatory bowel disease-related surgeries, hospitalizations, biologics or immunosuppressants' use, and persistent CRP elevation) between inflammatory bowel disease patients with and without cardiovascular disease. There was no difference between cardiovascular disease patients diagnosed before and after inflammatory bowel disease onset. All traditional risk factors (hypertension, dyslipidemia, smoking, obesity, diabetes mellitus) were significantly more common in cardiovascular disease patients. Cardiovascular disease patients had a trend for lower rates of multiple hospitalizations (16.5% vs. 24.3%, P = 0.05) and inflammatory bowel disease-related surgeries (P = 0.09). CONCLUSION The inflammatory burden possibly plays a less important role in the development of cardiovascular disease in inflammatory bowel disease patients but future larger prospective studies are needed.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Patients with IBD are at increased risk of acute arterial events. Antitumour necrosis factor (TNF) agents and thiopurines may, via their anti-inflammatory properties, lower the risk of acute arterial events. The aim of this study was to assess the impact of thiopurines and anti-TNFs on the risk of acute arterial events in patients with IBD. DESIGN Patients aged 18 years or older and affiliated to the French national health insurance with a diagnosis of IBD were followed up from 1 April 2010 until 31 December 2014. The risks of acute arterial events (including ischaemic heart disease, cerebrovascular disease and peripheral artery disease) were compared between thiopurines and anti-TNFs exposed and unexposed patients with marginal structural Cox proportional hazard models adjusting for baseline and time-varying demographics, medications, traditional cardiovascular risk factors, comorbidities and IBD disease activity. RESULTS Among 177 827 patients with IBD (96 111 (54%) women, mean age at cohort entry 46.2 years (SD 16.3), 90 205 (50.7%) with Crohn's disease (CD)), 4145 incident acute arterial events occurred (incidence rates: 5.4 per 1000 person-years). Compared with unexposed patients, exposure to anti-TNFs (HR 0.79, 95% CI 0.66 to 0.95), but not to thiopurines (HR 0.93, 95% CI 0.82 to 1.05), was associated with a decreased risk of acute arterial events. The magnitude in risk reduction was highest in men with CD exposed to anti-TNFs (HR 0.54, 95% CI 0.40 to 0.72). CONCLUSION Exposure to anti-TNFs is associated with a decreased risk of acute arterial events in patients with IBD, particularly in men with CD.

Abstract
Current guidelines state that systemic inflammation, together with endothelial dysfunction, calcification, and hypercoagulability, predispose to premature atherosclerosis in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). We assessed whether IBD can affect aortic stiffness, a well-recognized vascular biomarker and an independent risk factor for cardiovascular (CV) disease (CVD) in several populations. Recent studies reported that aortic stiffness is increased in adults with IBD compared with matched controls. This association is dependent on inflammatory burden and disease duration, and is reduced by antitumor necrosis factor therapy. Considered together, current findings suggest that increased aortic stiffness is an extraintestinal manifestation of IBD. This is clinically relevant since measuring aortic stiffness in patients with IBD could improve risk assessment, especially in those without established CVD. Moreover, effective control of inflammation could lower CV risk in patients with IBD by reducing aortic stiffness. Further longitudinal studies are needed to better clarify (i) the relationship between disease duration and irreversible changes of the arterial wall, (ii) the clinical characteristics of patients with IBD that have an increased arterial stiffness at least in part reversible, and (iii) whether arterial stiffness is useful to evaluate the efficacy of immunosuppressive therapy.

[PMID: 31588597 DOI: 10.1111/apt.15512] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/19/2019] [Revised: 07/14/2019] [Accepted: 09/09/2019] [Indexed: 12/22/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Geographical variations in Crohn's disease (CD) suggest that the environment has a role in the pathogenesis of this condition. AIMS To describe the spatial distribution and the clustering of CD cases in France, and to assess the relationship between the prevalence of CD and environmental risk factors. METHODS We identified all patients with CD included in the French hospital discharge database from 2007 to 2014. Age- and gender-smoothed standardised prevalence ratios over this period were computed for 5610 spatial units. An ecological regression analysis was used to assess the relationship between the risk of CD and ecological variables (health care, latitude, socio-economic deprivation, urbanisation, proportion of agricultural surfaces and density of industries). Local spatial clusters of high-CD prevalence were searched for using elliptic spatial scan statistics and characterised in a hierarchical ascendant classification based on the same ecological variables. RESULTS About 129 089 patients with CD were identified, yielding a crude prevalence of 203 per 100 000 inhabitants. The overall spatial heterogeneity was statistically significant (P < .001). An elevated risk of CD was found to be significantly associated with high-social deprivation (relative risk [95% confidence interval] = 1.05 [1.02-1.08]) and high urbanisation (1.09 [1.04-1.14]). Sixteen significant spatial clusters of high-CD prevalence were identified; there were no common ecological variables. CONCLUSIONS The geographical distribution of CD prevalence in France is not uniform, and is associated with high levels of social deprivation and urbanisation. Larger ecological databases integrating more detailed environmental and clinical information are needed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Children born to mothers with IBD may be exposed to anti-TNFα agents antenatally. Current European guidelines recommend postponing live vaccines until after 6 months of life in this population. Data on the safety of live vaccines administration in the first year of life of these children are sparse with one reported fatality following bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) administration. AIMS To describe the use and safety of vaccines administered in children born to mothers with IBD and exposed antenatally to anti-TNFα agents METHODS: Data from children born to mothers with IBD between 2013 and 2014 were collected retrospectively from the French Health Insurance Database. Vaccines recommended before or at 1 year of age were considered. RESULTS Among 4741 children, 670 (14.1%) were exposed to anti-TNFα agents antenatally, with concomitant thiopurines in 16.0% (n = 107) and steroids in 19.3% (n = 214). Among these 670 children, 315 (47%) were exposed up to delivery. Exposed children were less likely than non-exposed to receive BCG (88/670, 13.1% vs 780/4071, 19.2% respectively, P < .05) and received it later in life (months, mean ± SD, 4.3 ± 3.9 and 2.4 ± 2.9 respectively, P < .001). In exposed children, 64/88 (73%) received BCG vaccination before 6 months of age, but with no BCG-related severe adverse event observed during the first year. Uptake of other vaccines recommended before 6 months was above 85% in both groups. CONCLUSION In children exposed antenatally to anti-TNFα agents, vaccinations are often not postponed in keeping with the recommendations, but no BCG-related severe adverse events were reported in children vaccinated before 6 months of life.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is accompanied by various extraintestinal manifestations including systemic inflammation and hypercoagulability, which may increase the risk of atherosclerosis and ischaemic heart disease. AIM To investigate whether IBD is associated with an increased risk of myocardial infarction (MI), stroke or death METHODS: The International Classification of Disease, 10th edition codes and the claim codes for rare diseases were used to identify candidates from National Health Insurance Service (NHIS) of South Korea. Patients diagnosed with Crohn's disease (CD) or ulcerative colitis (UC) between 2006 and 2009 were age-matched 1:3 with NHIS enrolees without IBD. The primary outcomes included newly developed MI, stroke and death. Hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated using Cox regression models. RESULTS We identified 10 708 patients diagnosed with CD and 26 769 with UC. MI risk was higher in CD patients than in controls (incidence ratio (IR) 1.64 per 1000 person-years, HR, 1.80; 95% CI, 1.47-2.21), and this trend was more prominent among patients aged <40 years (IR 0.69 per 1000 person-years, HR, 2.96; 95% CI, 1.96-4.47) and among female patients (IR 2.35 per 1000 person-years, HR, 2.18; 95% CI, 1.61-2.94). In contrast, only female patients with UC had an increased risk of MI (IR 2.01 per 1000 person-years, HR, 1.33; 95% CI, 1.13-1.56). CONCLUSIONS The risk of MI risk is higher in patients with CD than in the general population, and this trend is stronger in female patients and those aged <40 years.

Abstract
BACKGROUND CT-P13, a biosimilar of the reference product infliximab, has been approved for the treatment of ulcerative colitis on the basis of the results of trials conducted in patients with spondyloarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. AIM To compare the effectiveness and safety of CT-P13 and the reference product in infliximab-naive patients with ulcerative colitis METHODS: A comparative real-life equivalence cohort study was conducted using the French nationwide health administrative database. Infliximab-naive patients with ulcerative colitis over 15 years of age who started infliximab with no other indications for infliximab were included. The primary outcome was a composite endpoint (death, ulcerative colitis-related surgery, all-cause hospitalisation and reimbursement for other biologics). Equivalence was defined as a 95% CI of the hazard ratio (HR) of CT-P13 vs the reference product, in a multivariable marginal Cox model situated within prespecified margins of (0.80-1.25). RESULTS A total of 3112 patients were included between 1 January 2015 and 30 June 2017: 1434 received the reference product, 1678 received CT-P13. Overall, 710 patients in the reference product group and 743 patients in the CT-P13 group met the composite endpoint. In multivariable analysis of the primary outcome, CT-P13 was equivalent to the reference product (HR 1.04; 95% CI: 0.94-1.15). The number of serious infections was lower in the CT-P13 group (HR 0.65; 95% CI: 0.48-0.88). There was no difference in the incidence of solid or haematologic malignancy (HR 0.81; 95% CI: 0.41-1.60). CONCLUSIONS The effectiveness of CT-P13 is equivalent and the risk of serious infections could be lower than that of the reference product for infliximab-naive patients with ulcerative colitis.

Abstract
Plenty of genome-wide association studies (GWASs) have identified numerous single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) for coronary artery disease (CAD) and blood pressure (BP). However, these SNPs only explain a small proportion of the heritability of two traits/diseases. Although high BP is a major risk factor for CAD, the genetic intercommunity between them remain largely unknown. To recognize novel loci associated with CAD and BP, a genetic-pleiotropy-informed conditional false discovery rate (cFDR) method was applied on two summary statistics of CAD and BP from existing GWASs. Stratified Q-Q and fold enrichment plots showed a high pleiotropic enrichment of SNPs associated with two traits. Adopting a cFDR of 0.05 as a threshold, 55 CAD-associated loci (25 variants being novel) and 47 BP loci (18 variants being novel) were identified, 25 of which were pleiotropic loci (13 variants being novel) for both traits. Among the 32 genes these 25 SNPs were annotated to, 20 genes were newly detected compared to previous GWASs. This study showed the cFDR approach could improve gene discovery by incorporating GWAS datasets of two related traits. These findings may provide novel understanding of etiology relationships between CAD and BP.

Abstract
Dihydroartemisinin (DHA) is a derivative of the herb Artemisia annua L. that has prominent immunomodulatory activity; however, its underlying mechanism remains elusive. Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is an idiopathic inflammatory condition characterized as an autoimmune disorder that includes dysfunctions in the T helper (Th)/T regulatory cell (Treg) balance, which normally plays pivotal roles in immune homeostasis. The aim of this study was to explore the potential of DHA to ameliorate IBD by restoring the Th/Treg cell balance. To this end, we established mouse models of colitis induced by oxazolone (OXA) and 2,4,6-trinitro-benzene sulfonic acid (TNBS). We then treated mice with DHA at 4, 8, or 16 mg/kg/day. DHA treatment ameliorated colitis signs and reduced lymphocyte infiltration and tissue fibrosis. Moreover, DHA decreased the numbers of Th1 and Th17 cells and Th9 and Th22 cells in TNBS- or OXA-induced colitis, respectively, and increased Tregs in both models. DHA (0.8 mg/mL) also inhibited activated CD4+ T lymphocytes, which was accompanied by apoptosis induction. Moreover, it promoted heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) production in vitro and in vivo, concomitant with CD4+ T cell apoptosis and restoration of the Th/Treg balance, and these effects were blocked by treatment with the HO-1 inhibitor Sn-protoporphyrin IX. Overall, these results suggest that DHA is a novel and valuable candidate for IBD therapy or Th/Treg immunoregulation.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic systemic inflammatory condition. Previously, the focus has been on extraintestinal manifestations of IBD, including arthritis, psoriasis, and uveitis. Although comorbidities have long been the subject of intensive research in other chronic inflammatory diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, the concept of comorbidities is only beginning to emerge in IBD. Several comorbid conditions have been proposed to be related to IBD, including cardiovascular disease, neuropsychological disorders, and metabolic syndrome. Recognition of these conditions and their treatment could lead to better management of IBD. This Review aims to explore current knowledge regarding classic and emerging comorbidities related to IBD.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) and their treatments, particularly immunosuppressive drugs, increase risk of infections and cancers. However, by promoting mucosal healing, these agents should reduce risks of infections related to intestinal lesions, malnutrition, intravenous devices, and IBD surgeries and reduce risk of cancers associated with chronic mucosal inflammation-although there are few data to support this concept. Corticosteroids increase the risk of vascular thromboembolic events, yet other immunosuppressive drugs that induce deep remission from IBD could decrease the incidence of cardiovascular events attributable to systemic inflammation and IBD-related hospitalizations and/or surgeries. The nature and magnitude of the risks of infections and cancers vary with immunosuppressive drug class and patient sex and age. For example, thiopurines increase risk of viral infections that might be fatal in young patients, whereas tumor necrosis factor antagonists increase risk of bacterial and intracellular infections that can be fatal in patients of any age, but particularly in older patients. The ability of drugs to prevent IBD-associated colorectal cancer varies with IBD location and duration. Models to assess the benefit:risk ratio of long-term use of immunosuppressive drugs for patients with IBD should be adapted based on patients' age, sex, and IBD phenotype, to properly guide patient management. The decision-making process should begin with a clear explanation of treatment risks and then integrate the patient's emotional perception of risks.

Abstract
BACKGROUND CT-P13 is a biosimilar of the reference product (RP) infliximab, with demonstrated efficacy and safety for some inflammatory arthritides. It was approved for the treatment of Crohn disease (CD) on that basis, without specific studies examining its effects in CD. OBJECTIVE To compare the effectiveness and safety of CT-P13 and RP in infliximab-naive patients with CD. DESIGN Comparative equivalence cohort study. SETTING Système National des Données de Santé (SNDS), a French nationwide health administrative database (1 March 2015 to 30 June 2017). PATIENTS 5050 infliximab-naive patients with CD who were older than 15 years, had started treatment with RP (n = 2551) or CT-P13 (n = 2499), and had no other indications for infliximab. MEASUREMENTS The primary outcome was a composite end point of death, CD-related surgery, all-cause hospitalization, and reimbursement of another biologic therapy. Equivalence was defined as a 95% CI of the hazard ratio (HR) of CT-P13 versus RP in a multivariable marginal Cox model situated within prespecified margins (0.80 to 1.25). RESULTS Overall, 1147 patients in the RP group and 952 patients in the CT-P13 group met the composite end point (including 838 and 719 hospitalizations, respectively). In multivariable analysis of the primary outcome, CT-P13 was equivalent to RP (HR, 0.92 [95% CI, 0.85 to 0.99]). No differences in safety outcomes were observed between the 2 groups: serious infections (HR, 0.82 [CI, 0.61 to 1.11]), tuberculosis (HR, 1.10 [CI, 0.36 to 3.34]), and solid or hematologic cancer (HR, 0.66 [CI, 0.33 to 1.32]). LIMITATION The SNDS does not contain all relevant clinical data (for example, disease activity). CONCLUSION This analysis of real-world data indicates that the effectiveness of CT-P13 is equivalent to that of RP for infliximab-naive patients with CD. No difference was observed for safety outcomes. PRIMARY FUNDING SOURCE Caisse Nationale de l'Assurance Maladie.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The prevalence of obesity in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) has increased over the past decades. Data to support the safety of bariatric surgery (BAR) in IBD remain scarce. Our aim was to evaluate the safety and early postoperative complications of BAR in IBD patients. METHODS We used the Nationwide Inpatient Sample (NIS) 2011, 2012, and 2013 to perform a cohort study. The study group was all hospitalized patients between ages 18-90 years who underwent BAR with a discharge diagnosis of IBD as per the Ninth International Classification of Diseases codes (ICD-9). Adults who underwent BAR without ICD-9 codes of IBD were identified as the comparison group. Complications were compared using multivariate logistic regression analysis. RESULTS We identified 314,864 adult patients who underwent BAR between 2011 and 2013. Mean age was 45.5 ± 0.11 years, and 79% were females. Seven hundred and ninety patients had underlying IBD; 459 had Crohn's disease and 331 had ulcerative colitis. The remaining patients formed the comparison group. Mean length of hospital stay (LOS) was longer in the IBD group by 1 day (p = 0.01). The IBD group had a significantly higher risk of perioperative small bowel obstruction (SBO) (adjusted odds ratio, 4.0; 95%, CI; 2.2-7.4). Other technical and systemic complications were similar between the two groups, with no mortality reported in the IBD group. CONCLUSIONS BAR in IBD patients has an acceptable safety profile, with immeditae risk limited to perioperative SBO and an apparently low risk of mortality or other major immediate postoperative complications.

Antioxidative Efficacy of a Pistacia Lentiscus Supplement and Its Effect on the Plasma Amino Acid Profile in Inflammatory Bowel Disease: A Randomised, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Trial. Nutrients 2018; 10:E1779. [PMID: 30453494 PMCID: PMC6267573 DOI: 10.3390/nu10111779] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/07/2018] [Revised: 10/30/2018] [Accepted: 11/13/2018] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
Abstract
Oxidative stress is present in patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD), and natural supplements with antioxidant properties have been investigated as a non-pharmacological approach. The objective of the present study was to assess the effects of a natural Pistacia lentiscus (PL) supplement on oxidative stress biomarkers and to characterise the plasma-free amino acid (AA) profiles of patients with active IBD (Crohn's disease (CD) N = 40, ulcerative colitis (UC) N = 20). The activity was determined according to 5 ≤ Harvey Bradshaw Index ≤ 16 or 2 ≤ Partial Mayo Score ≤ 6. This is a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial. IBD patients (N = 60) were randomly allocated to PL (2.8 g/day) or to placebo for 3 months being under no treatment (N = 21) or under stable medical treatment (mesalamine N = 24, azathioprine N = 14, and corticosteroids N = 23) that was either single medication (N = 22) or combined medication (N = 17). Plasma oxidised, low-density lipoprotein (oxLDL), total serum oxidisability, and serum uric acid were evaluated at baseline and follow-up. OxLDL/LDL and oxLDL/High-Density Lipoprotein (HDL) ratios were calculated. The plasma-free AA profile was determined by applying a gas chromatography/mass spectrometry analysis. oxLDL (p = 0.031), oxLDL/HDL (p = 0.020), and oxLDL/LDL (p = 0.005) decreased significantly in the intervention group. The mean change differed significantly in CD between groups for oxLDL/LDL (p = 0.01), and, in the total sample, both oxLDL/LDL (p = 0.015) and oxLDL/HDL (p = 0.044) differed significantly. Several changes were reported in AA levels. PL ameliorated a decrease in plasma-free AAs seen in patients with UC taking placebo. In conclusion, this intervention resulted in favourable changes in oxidative stress biomarkers in active IBD.

Correlation of Paraoxonase-1 with the Severity of Crohn's Disease. Molecules 2018; 23:molecules23102603. [PMID: 30314292 PMCID: PMC6222603 DOI: 10.3390/molecules23102603] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/04/2018] [Revised: 10/05/2018] [Accepted: 10/08/2018] [Indexed: 12/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Diagnostics of Crohn’s disease (CD) requires noninvasive biomarkers facilitating early detection and differentiation of the disease. Therefore, in this study, we aimed to determine the relationship between paraoxonase-1 (PON-1), the severity of CD, oxidative stress, and inflammation in CD. The CD activity index was based on the current classification. Plasma PON-1 was measured in 47 patients with CD, and in 23 control volunteers. Using quantitative variables such as receiver operating characteristics (ROC) (area under the curve (AUC)), the diagnostic utility of PON-1 in differentiating the severity of CD was assessed. Circulating PON-1 was found to be decreased in the CD group compared to the control group (269.89 vs. 402.56 U/L, respectively), and it correlated well with the disease activity. PON-1 correlated positively with hemoglobin (Hb) (r = 0.539, p < 0.001), hematocrit (Ht) (r = 0.48, p < 0.001), total cholesterol (TC) (r = 0.343, p < 0.001), high density lipoprotein (HDL) (r = 0.536, p < 0.001), low density lipoprotein (LDL) (r = 0.54, p < 0.001), and triglyceride (TG) (r = 0.561, p < 0.001) and correlated negatively with white blood cell count (WBC) (r = −0.262, p = 0.029), platelet count (PLT) (r = −0.326, p = 0.006), C-reactive protein (CRP) (r = −0.61, p < 0.001), and malondialdehyde (MDA) (r = −0.924, p < 0.001). PON-1 as a marker for CD differentiation possessed a sensitivity and specificity of 93.62% and 91.30%, respectively. CD was found to be associated with the decrease in the levels of PON-1, which correlates well with activity of the disease and reflects the intensification of inflammation, as well as intensified lipid peroxidation. High sensitivity and specificity of PON-1 determines its selection as a good screening test for CD severity.

Obesity in Inflammatory Bowel Disease: Gains in Adiposity despite High Prevalence of Myopenia and Osteopenia. Nutrients 2018; 10:nu10091192. [PMID: 30200405 PMCID: PMC6163971 DOI: 10.3390/nu10091192] [Citation(s) in RCA: 49] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/28/2018] [Revised: 08/18/2018] [Accepted: 08/21/2018] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Rising rates of obesity have been reported in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD); however, prospective data is lacking. The aim of this study is to prospectively evaluate body composition in adults with IBD over 24 months. METHODS Whole body dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) data was performed at 0 months, 12 months, and 24 months. Bone mineral density (BMD), fat mass index (FMI (kg)/height (m²)), appendicular skeletal muscle index (ASMI (kg)/height (m²)), visceral adipose tissue and the visceral adipose height index (VHI, VAT area (cm³)/height (m²)), and clinical and anthropometric assessments were performed at each time point. Multivariable linear mixed effects regression analyses were performed. RESULTS Initially, 154 participants were assessed at baseline (70% Crohn's disease, 55% male, median age 31 years), of whom 129 underwent repeated DXA at 12 months, and 110 underwent repeated DXA at 24 months. Amongst those undergoing repeated DXA, their body mass index (BMI) significantly increased over time, such that by 24 months, 62% of patients were overweight or obese (annual change BMI β = 0.43, 95%CI = [0.18, 0.67], p = 0.0006). Gains in BMI related to increases in both FMI and VHI (β = 0.33, 95%CI = [0.14, 0.53], p = 0.0007; β = 0.08, 95%CI = [0.02, 0.13], p = 0.001; respectively), whereas ASMI decreased (β = -0.07, 95%CI = [-0.12, -0.01], p = 0.01) with a concordant rise in rates of myopenia (OR = 3.1 95%CI = [1.2, 7.7]; p = 0.01). Rates of osteopenia and osteoporosis were high (37%), but remained unchanged over time (p = 0.23). CONCLUSION Increasing rates of obesity in patients with IBD coincide with decreases in lean muscle mass over time, while high rates of osteopenia remain stable. These previously undocumented issues warrant attention in routine care to prevent avoidable morbidity.

Abstract
Background and aims In inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), the impact of established cardiovascular risk factors and disease-related factors on the risk of acute arterial events is still unclear. We aimed to identify risk factors of acute arterial events in patients with IBD. Methods All consecutive patients followed at Saint-Antoine Hospital between 1996 and 2015 with subsequent occurrence of acute arterial events (acute coronary syndrome or ischemic stroke) were identified. Traditional cardiovascular risk factors, treatment exposure, systemic inflammation (mean serum CRP level greater than or equal to 5 mg/L) and IBD clinical activity were assessed. A nested case-control study was performed including cases and controls without arterial ischemic event, matched on age, gender, and disease extent. Results A total of 30 patients (median age at acute vascular event occurrence: 42 years (interquartile range: 25–59)) developed acute coronary syndrome (n = 22) or ischemic stroke (n = 8). In univariate analysis, clinical disease activity and the persistence of systemic inflammation, diabetes, dyslipidemia and hypertension were significantly associated with an increased risk of acute arterial events. Neither protective nor aggravating effects associated with treatment exposure were identified. In multivariate analysis, the presence of diabetes (Odds ratio (OR): 14.5, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.1–184.7) and clinical disease activity (OR: 10.4, 95% CI: 2.1–49.9) remained significantly associated with the risk of acute arterial event. Conclusion Disease activity may have an independent impact on the risk of acute arterial events in patients with IBD. These findings may highlight new potential benefits of optimizing anti-inflammatory treatment in patients with persisting clinical activity.

Abstract
Les patients ayant une maladie inflammatoire chronique de l’intestin (MICI) [maladie de Crohn ou rectocolite hémorragique] ont une probabilité plus importante d’être hospitalisés en médecine intensive et réanimation (MIR) soit en raison de leur traitement immunosuppresseur et/ou biothérapie (parfois associés) qui est à l’origine d’un surrisque d’infections notamment respiratoires soit en raison d’un risque accru de thromboses veineuses profondes ou artérielles. Ces complications directement ou non liées à la MICI sont associées à une morbidité et à une mortalité accrues. Certaines de ces complications peuvent être prévenues notamment par une vaccination adaptée des patients traités par immunosuppresseurs et par la prescription systématique d’une héparine de bas poids moléculaire chez tout patient ayant une MICI en poussée et/ou hospitalisé quelle qu’en soit la raison.

Abstract
Considering the prevalence of cardiovascular disease (CVD), significant interest has been focused on the gut microbiota-heart interaction because the gut microbiota has been recognized as a barometer of human health. Dysbiosis, characterized by changes in the gut microbiota in CVD, has been reported in cardiovascular pathologies, such as atherosclerosis, hypertension, and heart failure. Conversely, gut microbiota-derived metabolites, such as trimethylamine/trimethylamine N-oxide (TMA/TMAO), can impact host physiology. Further, bacterial dysbiosis can disturb gut immunity, which increases the risk of acute arterial events. Moreover, studies of germ-free mice have provided evidence that microbiota diversity and the presence of a specific microbe in the gut can affect immune cells in hosts. Therefore, the changes in the composition of the gut microbiota can affect host metabolism and immunity. Importantly, these effects are not only confined to the gut but also spreaded to distal organs. The purpose of the current review is to highlight the complex interplay between the microbiota and CVD via TMAO and different immune cells and discuss the roles of probiotics and nutrition interventions in modulating the intestinal microbiota as novel therapeutic targets of CVD.
