Abstract
BACKGROUND there are concerns regarding the risk of relapse after discontinuation of anti-tumor necrosis factor (anti-TNF) therapy in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). A systematic review and meta-analysis were performed to evaluate the risk of relapse after discontinuation of anti-TNF agent in patients, and the response to retreatment with the same anti-TNF agent. METHODS electronic databases were searched to identify relevant studies. Primary outcomes were the pooled percentage of relapses after the withdrawal of anti-TNF agents. Secondary outcomes were the pooled percentage of the response to retreatment with the same anti-TNF agent after relapse. RESULTS thirty-seven studies were included in this meta-analysis. The overall risk of relapse after discontinuation of anti-TNF agent was 43 % for ulcerative colitis (UC) and 43 % for Crohn's disease (CD). In UC, the relapse rate was 37 % at 1-2 year, and 58 % at 3-5 years. In CD, the relapse rate was 38 % at 1-2 year, 53 % at 3-5 years, and 49 % at more than five years. When clinical remission was the only criterion for stopping anti-TNF agent, the relapse rate was 42 % in UC and 45 % in CD, which decreased to 40 % in UC and 36 % in CD when clinical remission and endoscopic healing were required. Retreatment with the same anti-TNF agent induced remission again in 78 % of UC patients and 76 % of CD patients. CONCLUSION our meta-analysis showed that a high proportion of IBD patients will relapse after discontinuation of anti-TNF agent. The response to retreatment with the same anti-TNF agent is generally favorable in patients who relapse.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This systematic review aims to derive practical lessons from publications on patient involvement and engagement in the organisation of organ transplantation services. DESIGN This systematic review was conducted according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses. Inclusion criteria for the analysis of publications in English cited in the databases PubMed and Web of Science until 6 December 2022 required that patients participated as advisers in the organisation of organ transplantation services. Quality assessment was performed using the Guidance for Reporting Involvement of Patients and the Public (GRIPP) 2 small form and the Critical Appraisal Skills Programme (CASP) tool for the assessment of the risks of bias. RESULTS Deployed search strings identified 2263 records resulting in a total of 11 articles. The aims and strategies, deployed methods, observed effects, observed barriers and proposed improvements for the future varied vastly. All reported that well-developed programmes involving and engaging patients at an organisational level provide additional benefits for patients and foster patient-centred care. Lessons learnt include: (1) to empower patients, the information provided to them should be individualised to prioritise their needs; (2) financial as well as organisational resources are important to successfully implement patient involvement and engagement; (3) systematic feedback from patients in organisational structures to health providers is required to improve clinical workflows and (4) the consideration of ethical issues and the relationship between investigators and participating patients should be clarified and reported. CONCLUSIONS Actionable management recommendations could be derived. The quantitative impact on clinical outcome and economic clinical process improvements remains to be investigated. Study quality can be improved using the GRIPP 2 guidance and the CASP tool. PROSPERO REGISTRATION NUMBER CRD42022186467.

Abstract
Ulcerative colitis (UC) is associated with brain neurotransmitter disorders and intestinal dysbiosis. Bacillus amyloliquefaciens fmb50 produces the lipopeptide surfactin, which has a wide range of biological activities. However, the effects of surfactin on DSS-induced colitis have not been reported. In the present study, oral surfactin significantly ameliorated colitis in a mouse model and reduced depression-like behavior, such as slowed walking speed, shortened movement distance in the open field test, and weakened exploration ability in the light-dark shuttle test. Surfactin noticeably improved gut microbial dysbiosis, intestinal barrier dysfunction in the colon, and blood-brain barrier dysfunction in the brain. Furthermore, the colon levels of occludin were upregulated by 68.51%, and the brain levels of occludin and ZO-1 were upregulated by 77.81% and 36.42%, respectively. Surfactin supplementation also inhibited inflammatory responses by inactivating the tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), nuclear factor kappa-B (NF-κB), and NLRP3 signaling pathways in the colon and brain. Thus, we believe that surfactin improved the behavioral disorders by upregulating the levels of 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT), 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid (5-HIAA), norepinephrine (NE), and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), suppressing the inflammatory responses, and improving the blood-brain barrier dysfunction. Surfactin also reduced the abundances of gut microbes that are related to colitis, especially targeting facultative anaerobes of the phylum Proteobacteria, and it increased the abundance of beneficial bacteria such as Lactobacillus and unidentified Prevotella. Combined with its nontoxic nature observed in this long-term study in mice, oral surfactin might be a promising intervention strategy for preventing colitis by acting on the microbiota-gut-brain axis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIM Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic disorder affecting patients' health-related quality of life (HRQoL) which adds to their disability. Little is known about the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on HRQoL of IBD patients. We aimed to evaluate HRQoL in IBD patient's pre- and post-COVID-19 pandemic using the IBD-disk questionnaire and explore associations between socio demographic factors, disease types, severity and impaired HRQoL in patients with IBD. PATIENTS AND METHODS A cross-sectional study was conducted at a tertiary care centre in Saudi Arabia between November 2019 and March 2020 at the outpatient IBD clinics. The HRQoL of patients was assessed using the 10-item IBD-disk questionnaire. RESULTS A total of 59 IBD patients (40 Crohn's disease, 19 Ulcerative colitis) with a mean disease duration of 3.5 years were included. Most of the patients (77.97%) were on biologics while 35.59% were on immune modulators, 16.94% on 5-ASA, and 3.38% were on corticosteroids. There was no difference between any of the 10 IBD-disk variables pre and post-COVID-19 pandemic apart from the perception of body image, where there was a slightly more negative perception with an increase from 2.53 to 3.39 (P = 0.05) There was no significant difference in HRQoL between patients with ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease in any of domains. CONCLUSION The current study showed that disability and HRQoL appears to be unaffected by the COVID-19 pandemic among our cohort, however further studies with longer follow up and larger sample size is needed.

Abstract
Background: Congenital heart disease places survivors at increased risk for cardiovascular complications as they age and requires long-term medical management. Perceived health competence, or how capable one feels in managing one’s health, is linked to emotional adjustment in various disease populations, but has not been investigated among congenital heart disease survivors. Aim: The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship of perceived health competence at baseline (T1) as a predictor of anxiety and depressive symptoms three years later (T2). Methods: Congenital heart disease survivors ( n=125; MT1age=27; 58.6% female; severity of cardiac lesion: 25% simple, 44% moderate, 31% complex) were recruited from a pediatric and an adult hospital as part of a larger study. Participants completed the Perceived Health Competence Scale and the Youth or Adult Self-Report at T1 for anxiety and affective/depressive symptoms. At T2, participants completed the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale. New York Heart Association functional class, a measure of functional impairment, was abstracted from medical charts at T2. Results: Lower T1 perceived health competence was significantly associated with greater emotional distress at T1 (depression r=−0.47; anxiety: r=−0.45), as well as greater T2 functional impairment ( r=−0.41). T1 perceived health competence also predicted T2 anxiety and depressive symptoms, which remained significant when including T1 anxiety and depressive symptoms and T2 functional impairment. Conclusion: Congenital heart disease survivors who feel more competent in managing their health may be less likely to experience future anxiety and depressive symptoms. Perceived health competence may be a worthwhile target for psychosocial intervention to promote emotional wellbeing among congenital heart disease survivors and ensure the best outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The patient experience around surgical care is poorly characterized. Medical students have a unique position on the surgical team, which allows them to observe patient experiences that may otherwise be overlooked. The objective of this study was to characterize surgical patients' experience with pain as witnessed by medical students. STUDY DESIGN At the end of an 8-week surgical clerkship, we asked all third-year medical students to write a reflective essay describing one surgical patient in pain. We collected 341 essays over a 4-year period and used qualitative content analysis to explore the students' reports of pain experienced by surgical patients. RESULTS When asked to tell a story about a surgical patient in pain, medical students report vivid descriptions of physical agony, emotional distress, and patient regret. For example, "Throughout the procedure our patient cried out and writhed in agony from the searing pain in his chest," and "The patient was practically shedding tears, complaining of pain, as [we] changed her dressing." The students' accounts reveal wide-ranging physical and emotional suffering among surgical patients, including alterations in self-image and feelings of vulnerability. Pain and suffering were intensified when patients felt they had lost control, in settings of uncertain prognosis and with unexpected outcomes. CONCLUSIONS Students' descriptions of the surgical patient's experience are disturbingly graphic. They expose suffering ranging from generalized discomfort to anguish and excruciating pain. These data suggest that surgical patients have substantial unmet needs with respect to symptom management and emotional support that, if better addressed, could improve the patient experience.

Abstract
Depression and anxiety-related psychological symptoms are increasingly recognised as important co-morbidities in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Dextran sulfate sodium (DSS) -induced colitis is an animal model of IBD in which afferent activation of the gut-brain axis can be assessed and explored as a source of behavioural change. Exposure of adult male Wistar rats to DSS (5%) in drinking water induced distal colitis. In parallel to local inflammatory responses in the gut wall, increased expression of IL-6 and iNOS was found in the cerebral cortex and an increase in ventricular volume. Immunoreactivity of immediate early gene FosB/ΔFosB activation was measured as an index of cellular activation and was increased in the nucleus accumbens and dorsal raphe nucleus in acutely colitic animals. Following resolution of the acute colitic response, sustained anhedonia in the saccharin preference test, immobility in the forced swim test, reduced burying behaviour in the marble burying test, and mild signs of anxiety in the elevated plus maze and light/dark box were observed. Central increases in iNOS expression persisted during the recovery phase and mapped to reactive microglia, particularly those found in the parenchyma surrounding circumventricular regions. Evidence of associated nitration was also found. Sustained increases in ventricular volume and reduced T2 magnetic resonance relaxometry time in cortical regions were observed during the recovery period. FosB/ΔFosB activation was evident in the dorsal raphe during recovery. Persistent central inflammation and cellular activation may underpin the emergence of symptoms of depression and anxiety in experimental colitis.

Abstract
Background Several studies have assessed the psychological benefits of orthodontic treatment; however, the impact of competence on psychological benefits remains unknown. Aims: To analyze the change of the perception of psychosocial dental impact in a sample of adults undergoing orthodontic treatment (mild/moderate dental malocclusions) and to assess the possible moderating effect of health competence level. Methods A longitudinal prospective design was used. Three time points were included: baseline (T0), 6 months after starting orthodontic treatment (T1) and once treatment had finished (T2). The pretreatment sample consisted of 78 patients recruited from the Rey Juan Carlos University Dental Clinic, all of whom had moderate malocclusions and were going to undergo orthodontic treatment for approximately 18 months with fixed metal multibrackets. All participants were instructed to complete the Spanish version of the Psychosocial Impact of Dental Aesthetics Questionnaire (PIDAQ) and the aesthetic component of the Index of Orthodontic Treatment Need (IOTN-AC) on the three points of the research. Statistical analysis involved the General Linear Model (GLM) repeated-measures ANOVA to test if the outcome measures of psychosocial dental impact significantly changed over time during orthodontic treatment (baseline, at 6-month evaluation and posttreatment). To assess the effect of the previous health competence levels (high/low) in the change from baseline to the 6-month assessment, for each PIDAQ dimension, a 2*2 (time*group) repeated measures ANOVA was performed. Results A significant increase was observed in dental self-confidence values (T0-T1 and T0-T2). Similar results were observed for the psychological impact variables and for the IOTN-AC scores, which showed significant decreases between T0 and T1 and between T0 and T2. Finally, significantly decreases were observed between T0 and T2 in aesthetic concern. Interaction effects were found regarding the health competence variable from T0-T1 for the psychological impact, social impact and aesthetic concern and the IOTN-AC index, with significant development results regarding the high competence group. Conclusions The first 6 months of orthodontic treatment seemed to be key to the development of psychosocial dental impact perception, during which the role of health competence was of great importance to developing a positive change. It is necessary to follow a biopsychosocial approach towards orthodontic treatment.

Abstract
Given the chronic nature of inflammatory bowel disease, understanding the coping behaviors of individuals affected with the disease is important to influence health outcomes. Although minorities comprise a significant portion of individuals with the disease, little is known about the potential influence of one's culture, specifically among African Americans, on coping with inflammatory bowel disease. This integrative literature review examined the past decade of research related to the coping behaviors of African Americans living with inflammatory bowel disease to identify opportunities for further research. Five studies were identified via database searches of PubMed, PsychInfo, CINAHL, and the Cochrane Library and limited to studies published in English, full-text, peer-reviewed, and adult samples that included African Americans. Findings lacked information specific to coping in African Americans. Results were categorized by coping and disease activity, acquisition of knowledge, and personal coping. An association between poor coping behaviors and active disease was reported. The disease frequently hindered academic pursuits of college students, with increased knowledge about the disease associated with the use of better coping strategies. Personal coping behaviors were reported in stressful social situations, food choices, and religion. Results emphasized the need for future research to explore the influence of culture on the coping behaviors of African Americans with inflammatory bowel disease.

Abstract
UNLABELLED IntroductionInflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic relapsing and remitting disorder characterised by inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract. There is a growing consensus that IBD is associated with anxiety- and depression-related symptoms. Psychological symptoms appear to be more prevalent during active disease states with no difference in prevalence between Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. Behavioural disturbances including anxiety- and depression-like symptoms have also been observed in animal models of IBD. RESULTS The likely mechanisms underlying the association are discussed with particular reference to communication between the gut and brain. The close bidirectional relationship known as the gut-brain axis includes neural, hormonal and immune communication links. Evidence is provided for a number of interacting factors including activation of the inflammatory response system in the brain, the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis, and brain areas implicated in altered behaviours, changes in blood brain barrier integrity, and an emerging role for gut microbiota and response to probiotics in IBD.DiscussionThe impact of psychological stress in models of IBD remains somewhat conflicted, however, it is weighted in favour of stress or early stressful life events as risk factors in the development of IBD, stress-induced exacerbation of inflammation and relapse. CONCLUSION It is recommended that patients with IBD be screened for psychological disturbance and treated accordingly as intervention can improve quality of life and may reduce relapse rates.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There has been burgeoning interest in quality of life (QoL) in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) in recent decades, with hundreds of studies each year now assessing this outcome. This paper is part 2 of a systematic review evaluating 5 key QoL comparisons within IBD states and relative to others without IBD. Part 1 examined QoL comparing IBD and a healthy/general population and other medically ill groups. Part 2, presented here, examines within-disease comparisons of active/inactive disease, Ulcerative colitis (UC) / Crohn's disease (CD), and change in QoL over time. Outcomes using generic versus IBD-specific QoL measures were also examined. METHODS Adult and pediatric studies were identified through systematic searches of 7 databases from the 1940s (where available) to October 2015. RESULTS Of 6173 abstracts identified, 466 were selected for final review based on controlled design and validated measurement, of which 83 unique studies (75 adult, 8 pediatric) addressed the within-disease comparisons. The pooled mean QoL scores were significantly lower in active versus inactive IBD (n = 26) and for those with CD versus UC (n = 37), consistent across IBD-specific and generic QoL measures, for almost all comparisons. There was significant improvement in QoL over time (n = 37). Study quality was generally low to moderate. The most common measures of QoL were the disease-specific Inflammatory Bowel Disease Questionnaire and generic 36-Item Short Form Survey (SF-36) (adults) and the IBD-specific IMPACT (children). CONCLUSIONS For adults in particular, there was strong confirmation that QoL is poorer during active disease and may be poorer for those with CD. The finding that QoL can improve over time may be encouraging for individuals with this chronic disease.

Abstract
Comorbidity with anxiety or depression is common in patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) as Crohn Disease (CD) and Ulcerative Colitis (UC). Data suggest that the cognitive construct of alexithymia has high prevalence in people suffering from anxiety and mood disorders and even in people with IBD. Most studies have investigated mainly anxiety and depression, considering IBD population as a homogeneous group of patients. Little evidence shows the impact of alexithymia on the course of IBD. We evaluated a broad spectrum of psychopathological symptoms and alexithymia levels in a group of outpatients affected by IBD in clinical remission, comparing CD and UC and investigating the relationship with clinical and socio-demographic variables. One hundred and seventy IBD outpatients were screened by using the Hospital Anxiety Depression Scale (HADS), the Self-report Symptom Inventory-90-Revised (SCL-90-R) and the Toronto Alexithymia Scale (TAS-20). A high prevalence of anxious and depressive symptoms (42.35 and 25.8% respectively) together with alexithymia (31.76%) was confirmed. CD patients experienced high levels of depression (HADS Depression 35.2% p = 0.034; SCL-90-R mean 1.39 p < 0.001), somatisation (SCL-90-R mean 1.04 p < 0.001), obsessive-compulsive symptoms (SCL-90-R mean 1.2 p < 0.001), and global severity (SCL-90-R mean 1.15 p < 0.001). There is no statistical difference in the prevalence of alexithymia in both subpopulations. The levels of alexithymia are correlated to the levels of anxiety (HADS Anxiety rs = 0.516 p < 0.001), depression (HADS Depression rs = 0.556 p < 0.001; SCL-90-R rs = 0.274 p = 0.001), somatisation (SCL-90-R rs = 0.229 p = 0.005), obsessive-compulsive symptoms (SCL-90-R rs = 0.362 p < 0.001), and global severity (SCL-90-R rs = 0.265 p = 0.001). Furthermore, alexithymia is associated with a delay of diagnosis of IBD, poly-therapies and greater IBD extension. Older age, female gender, greater IBD extension, surgery, and delay of diagnosis seem to be related to a high prevalence of psychopathological symptoms such as anxiety, depression, somatisation, and obsessive-compulsive symptoms. Psychopathological symptoms and high levels of alexithymia are frequent in IBD patients and seem to be related to a high risk of poor clinical outcome. CD patients could be considered at higher risk of mental comorbidity. A more comprehensive psychiatric assessment, including alexithymia, and an integrated treatment of underlying conditions, must be taken into account in order to improve the global prognosis of the disease.

Abstract
More than eighty years after Hans Selye (1907-1982) first developed a concept describing how different types of environmental stressors affect physiological functions and promote disease development (called the "general adaptation syndrome") in 1936, we herein review advances in theoretical, mechanistic, and clinical knowledge in stress research, especially in the area of gastroenterology, and summarize progress and future perspectives arising from an interdisciplinary psychoneurobiological framework in which genetics, epigenetics, and other advanced ( omics) technologies in the last decade continue to refine knowledge about how stress affects the brain-gut axis in health and gastrointestinal disease. We demonstrate that neurobiological stress research continues to be a driving force for scientific progress in gastroenterology and related clinical areas, inspiring translational research from animal models to clinical applications, while highlighting some areas that remain incompletely understood, such as the roles of sex/gender and gut microbiota in health and disease. Future directions of research should include not only the genetics of the stress response and resilience but also epigenetic contributions.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed at investigating the associations between inflammatory mediators, symptoms and psychological disturbances in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients. METHODS IBD patients and patient controls were examined during a single visit to a gastroenterology clinic. Disease activity was assessed using the Mayo index for ulcerative colitis (UC), inflammatory bowel disease questionnaire (IBDQ), Crohn's disease activity index (CDAI) and Crohn's disease endoscopic index of severity (CDEIS). Gene expression of inflammatory mediators were measured in intestinal biopsies and whole blood samples along with circulating concentrations of interleukin (IL)-6, interferon (IFN)γ, C-reactive protein (CRP), kynurenine and tryptophan. Validated depression, anxiety and quality of life scores were used to assess psychological well-being. RESULTS Patients who were symptomatic had the highest depression and anxiety scores, together with increased intestinal expression of IL-1β, IL-6 and matrix metalloproteinase-9, increased circulating IL-6 and CRP, and an increased circulating kynurenine:tryptophan ratio. Increased Hamilton depression (HAM-D) scores in IBD patients were observed independent of the psychological impact of acute symptoms. CONCLUSIONS Active IBD is associated with symptoms of depression and anxiety and with a raised circulating inflammatory mediator profile. Patients with active IBD exhibiting psychological symptoms should undergo psychological evaluation to ensure the psychological aspects of the condition are considered and addressed.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Evaluate the effect of perceived health competence, a patient's belief in his or her ability to achieve health-related goals, on health behavior and health-related quality of life. METHODS We analyzed 2063 patients hospitalized with acute coronary syndrome and/or congestive heart failure at a large academic hospital in the United States. Multivariable linear regression models investigated associations between the two-item perceived health competence scale (PHCS-2) and positive health behaviors such as medication adherence and exercise (Health Behavior Index) as well as health-related quality of life (5-item Patient Reported Outcome Information Measurement System Global Health Scale). RESULTS After multivariable adjustment, perceived health competence was highly associated with health behaviors (p<0.001) and health-related quality of life (p<0.001). Low perceived health competence was associated with a decrease in health-related quality of life between hospitalization and 90days after discharge (p<0.001). CONCLUSIONS Perceived health competence predicts health behavior and health-related quality of life in patients hospitalized with cardiovascular disease as well as change in health-related quality of life after discharge. PRACTICE IMPLICATIONS Patients with low perceived health competence may be at risk for a decline in health-related quality of life after hospitalization and thus a potential target for counseling and other behavioral interventions.

The role of coping strategies on health-related quality of life in adults with anorectal malformations. Pediatr Surg Int 2016; 32:759-65.

Abstract
PURPOSE Coping strategies have been acknowledged as crucial for the well-being and for health-related quality of life (HRQoL). The main aim of the present study is to determine whether different types of coping strategies predict HRQoL in patients born with ARM, above and beyond the variance explained by fecal and urinary continence. METHODS 71 adult patients from the Italian Parents' and Patients' Organization for Anorectal Malformations (AIMAR) participated in the study. Participants completed measures of fecal and urinary continence of the Hirschsprung Disease/Anorectal Malformation Quality of Life (HAQL) (Hanneman et al. in Dis Col Rect 44:1650-1660, 2001), the Short Form Health Survey (SF-36) (Apolone and Mosconi in J Clin Epidemiol 51:1025-1036, 1998), and the Brief Coping Orientation to Problems Experienced (COPE) Inventory (Carver in Int J Behav Med 4:92-100, 1997), which measures different coping strategies: maladaptive, problem-focused and emotion-focused. RESULTS Hierarchical regression analyses showed that fecal continence (β = 0.53, p < 0.01) and urinary continence significantly predict (β = 0.23, p < 0.05) Physical HRQoL. Fecal continence (β = 0.36, p < 0.01) and maladaptive coping strategies significantly predict (β = -0.27, p < 0.05) Mental HRQoL. CONCLUSION Besides considering the importance of fecal and urinary continence for Physical HRQoL, these findings indicate that maladaptive coping strategies are associated with worse Mental HRQoL. Interventions aimed at enhancing the patients' HRQoL should target coping strategies by reducing denial, behavioral disengagement, substance abuse, and self-blame.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a heterogeneous chronic inflammatory condition requiring significant healthcare expenditure. Subgroups of individuals contribute disproportionately to spending. We aimed to determine demographic and clinical factors predictive of high healthcare expenditures for IBD patients followed over a multiyear period. METHODS This was a registry analysis using a prospective observational, consented, natural history registry from a tertiary IBD center and associated medical charges, not including pharmacy expenses. The 100 patients with the highest medical charges (top 5%) were compared with the median 300 patients. Logistic regression determined demographic and clinical factors associated with high charge patients. RESULTS IBD patients in the high charge group had significantly more unemployment (P < 0.0001), were of black race (P = 0.013), comorbid psychiatric illness (P = 0.002), hypertension (P = 0.01), diabetes (P = 0.004), opiate use (P < 0.0001), perianal involvement (P = 0.002), penetrating disease (P < 0.0001), and extensive colitis (P = 0.01). In multivariate analysis, unemployment (Crohn's disease [CD]: odds ratio [OR], 3.04; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.32-7.02; ulcerative colitis [UC]: OR, 2.68; 95% CI, 1.20-5.99), psychiatric illness (UC: OR, 2.08; 95% CI, 1.03-4.19), opiates (CD: OR, 5.61; 95% CI, 2.67-11.82; UC: OR, 5.14; 95% CI, 2.52-10.48), prior surgery (CD: OR, 3.29; 95% CI, 1.59-6.82; UC: OR, 2.72; 95% CI, 1.39-5.32), penetrating CD (OR, 3.29; 95% CI, 1.02-10.62), and corticosteroid requirement (CD: OR, 3.78; 95% CI, 1.86-7.65; UC: OR, 2.98; 95% CI, 1.51-5.90) remained independently associated with high charges. CONCLUSIONS High expenditure IBD patients were affected by more severe disease. The high prevalence of depression, anxiety, and chronic pain in these patients suggests the need for focused treatment of these comorbidities ultimately to reduce financial burden.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although mental health concerns are known to occur commonly for those with inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), the nature of this comorbid relationship has not been systematically reviewed to date. A review in 2007 identified 5 controversies regarding anxiety/depression rates and various comparators between and within IBD. We aimed to systematically analyze and critique the current evidence regarding this comorbidity, providing an update to the 5 controversies. METHODS Ebscohost Medline, CINAHL, Embase, and PsychINFO were searched between 2005 and 2014 using systematic review methodology. Controlled quantitative studies examining either symptoms or diagnoses of anxiety and depression in IBD were included in the review, with study quality assessed using a scale developed a priori to evaluate observational research. RESULTS (1) IBD versus healthy controls (pooled mean proportions) (n = 13 studies): anxiety 19.1% versus 9.6%, depression 21.2% versus 13.4%; (2) IBD inactive versus IBD active disease (n = 26): anxiety 28.2% versus 66.4%, depression 19.9% versus 34.7%; (3) ulcerative colitis versus Crohn's disease (n = 28): anxiety 31% versus 37%, depression 22% versus 24.4%; (4) IBD versus other chronic medical conditions (n = 17): anxiety 41.9% versus 48.2%, depression 14.5% versus 28.4%; (5) onset of anxiety/depression before or after IBD onset (n = 2): adults more likely to develop anxiety/depression before IBD onset, but a substantial proportion develops depression after onset; an increased risk for children of developing anxiety/depression after IBD onset. CONCLUSIONS The high rates of anxiety and depression for those with IBD, particularly when disease is active, warrant a systemic approach to screening and treatment.
