Abstract
BACKGROUND To help navigate the complex treatment landscape of ulcerative colitis (UC), we quantified the benefit-risk trade-offs that patients were willing to make when choosing treatment. METHODS Patients completed an online discrete choice experiment. Eligible patients had a UC diagnosis for ≥6 months, were aged ≥18 years, and resided in France, Germany, Italy, Spain, or the UK. Patients chose between 2 hypothetical treatments set up to ensure trade-offs were made. Clinical trial data, literature review, and patient interviews identified treatment attributes. Relative attribute importance (RAI) scores and maximum acceptable risks were generated. A patient-centric benefit-risk assessment of 200 mg of filgotinib was conducted as an example to show how measured trade-offs can be used. RESULTS Overall, 631 patients participated; patients had a mean age of 42.2 years and were predominantly male (75.3%). Achieving and maintaining clinical remission was the most important factor for patients (RAI 32.4%); to achieve this, patients were willing to accept slightly higher risks of blood clots, serious infections, and malignancies compared with lower risk treatment profiles. Patients also valued the convenience of oral treatments, avoiding steroids, and the ability to attend school/work. The patient-centric benefit-risk assessment suggested patients are significantly more likely to prefer Janus kinase 1 preferential inhibitor filgotinib over placebo. CONCLUSIONS Achieving clinical remission was the highest treatment priority for patients. To attain this, patients were willing to accept some slightly higher risk treatment profiles. Patient choices in the benefit-risk assessment suggested patients were significantly more likely to prefer filgotinib over placebo.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Patients with inflammatory bowel disease [IBD] have a more than two fold higher risk of venous thromboembolic events [VTE] than the general population. The aetiology is complex, and the role of medication is not precisely defined. We aimed to assess the effects of anti-tumor necrosis factor alpha [anti-TNFα] drugs and conventional anti-inflammatory therapy, namely corticosteroids [CS], immunomodulators [IM], and 5-aminosalicylates [5-ASA] on VTE in IBD. METHODS A systematic search was performed in five databases on November 22, 2022. We included studies reporting VTE in the distinct categories of medications, determined the proportions, and calculated the odds ratios [OR] with 95% confidence intervals [CI], using the random-effects model. The risk of bias was evaluated with the Joanna Briggs Institute Critical Appraisal Checklist and the Risk of Bias in Non-randomized Studies of Interventions tool. RESULTS The quantitative analysis included 16 observational studies, with data from 91 322 IBD patients. Patients receiving anti-TNFα medication had significantly less VTE [proportion: 0.05, CI: 0.02-0.10], than patients treated with CS [proportion: 0.16, CI: 0.07-0.32], with OR = 0.42 [CI: 0.25-0.71]. IMs resulted in similar proportions of VTE compared with biologics [0.05, CI: 0.03-0.10], with OR = 0.94 [CI: 0.67-1.33]. The proportion of patients receiving 5-ASA having VTE was 0.09 [CI: 0.04-0.20], with OR = 1.00 [CI: 0.61-1.62]. CONCLUSIONS Biologics should be preferred over corticosteroids in cases of severe flare-ups and multiple VTE risk factors, as they are associated with reduced odds of these complications. Further studies are needed to validate our data.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Hospitalized patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are at increased risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE). We aimed to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of prophylactic anticoagulation compared with no anticoagulation in hospitalized patients with IBD. We conducted a retrospective cohort study using a hospital-based database. We included patients with IBD who had a length of hospital stay ≥2 days between 1 January 2016 and 31 December 2019. We excluded patients who had other indications for anticoagulation, users of direct oral anticoagulants, warfarin, therapeutic-intensity heparin, and patients admitted for surgery. We defined exposure to prophylactic anticoagulation using charge codes. The primary effectiveness outcome was VTE. The primary safety outcome was bleeding. We used propensity score matching to reduce potential differences between users and nonusers of anticoagulants and Cox proportional-hazards regression to estimate adjusted hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). The analysis included 56 194 matched patients with IBD (users of anticoagulants, n = 28 097; nonusers, n = 28 097). In the matched sample, prophylactic use of anticoagulants (vs no use) was associated with a lower rate of VTE (HR, 0.62; 95% CI, 0.41-0.94) and with no difference in the rate of bleeding (HR, 1.05; 95% CI, 0.87-1.26). In this study of hospitalized patients with IBD, prophylactic use of heparin was associated with a lower rate of VTE without increasing bleeding risk compared with no anticoagulation. Our results suggest potential benefits of prophylactic anticoagulation to reduce the burden of VTE in hospitalized patients with IBD.

Abstract
The Brazilian Organization for Crohn's Disease and Colitis (GEDIIB) established a national registry of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). The aim of the study was to identify clinical factors associated with disease severity in IBD patients in Brazil. A population-based risk model aimed at stratifying the severity of IBD based on previous hospitalization, use of biologics, and need for surgery for ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's Disease (CD) and on previous complications for CD. A total of 1179 patients (34.4 ± 14.7y; females 59%) were included: 46.6% with UC, 44.2% with CD, and 0.9% with unclassified IBD (IBD-U). The time from the beginning of the symptoms to diagnosis was 3.85y. In CD, 41.2% of patients presented with ileocolic disease, 32% inflammatory behavior, and 15.5% perianal disease. In UC, 46.3% presented with extensive colitis. Regarding treatment, 68.1%, 67%, and 47.6% received biological therapy, salicylates and immunosuppressors, respectively. Severe disease was associated with the presence of extensive colitis, EIM, male, comorbidities, and familial history of colorectal cancer in patients with UC. The presence of Montreal B2 and B3 behaviors, colonic location, and EIM were associated with CD severity. In conclusion, disease severity was associated with younger age, greater disease extent, and the presence of rheumatic EIM.

Abstract
Cerebral sinus venous thrombosis (CSVT) is a relatively rare acute disorder of cerebral circulation, but it can potentially be associated with serious sequelae and a poor prognosis. The neurological manifestations associated with it are often not adequately taken into consideration given the extreme variability and nuances of its clinical presentation and given the need for radiological methods suitable for this type of diagnosis. CSVT is usually more common in women, but so far there are little data available in the literature on sex-specific characteristics regarding this pathology. CSVT is the result of multiple conditions and is therefore to be considered a multifactorial disease where at least one risk factor is present in over 80% of cases. From the literature, we learn that congenital or acquired prothrombotic states are to be considered extremely associated with the occurrence of an acute episode of CSVT and its recurrences. It is, therefore, necessary to fully know the origins and natural history of CSVT, in order to implement the diagnostic and therapeutic pathways of these neurological manifestations. In this report, we summarize the main causes of CSVT considering the possible influence of gender, bearing in mind that most of the causes listed above are pathological conditions closely linked to the female sex.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) has been associated with an increased risk of thromboembolic vascular complications. Although studies from the National Inpatient Sample (NIS) examined this association to some extent, sub-stratification for Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC) in larger studies is lacking. The aims of this study were to utilize the NIS to determine the prevalence of thromboembolic events in inpatients with IBD compared to in patients without IBD and to explore the inpatient outcomes like morbidity, mortality, and resource utilization in patients with IBD and thromboembolic events as stratified by disease subtype. METHODS This was a retrospective observational study using the NIS 2016. All patients with ICD10-CM codes for IBD were included. Patients with thromboembolic events were identified using diagnostic ICD codes and stratified into 4 categories: (1) Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), (2) Pulmonary embolism (PE), (3) Portal vein thrombosis (PVT), and (4) Mesenteric ischemia, which were then sub-stratified for CD and UC. The primary outcome was the inpatient prevalence and odds of thromboembolic events in patients with IBD compared to without IBD. Secondary outcomes were inpatient morbidity, mortality, resource utilization, colectomy rates, hospital length of stay (LOS), and total hospital costs and charges compared to patients with IBD and thromboembolic events. RESULTS A total of 331,950 patients with IBD were identified, of who 12,719 (3.8%) had an associated thromboembolic event. For the primary outcome, after adjusting for confounders, inpatients with IBD had higher adjusted odds of DVT (aOR 1.59, p < 0.001), PE (aOR 1.20, p < 0.001), PVT (aOR 3.18, p < 0.001) and mesenteric ischemia (aOR 2.49, p < 0.001) compared to inpatients without IBD, an observation which was confirmed for both patients with CD and UC. Inpatients with IBD and associated DVT, PE and mesenteric ischemia had higher morbidity, mortality, odds of colectomy, cost, and charges. CONCLUSIONS Inpatients with IBD have higher odds of associated thromboembolic disorders compared to patients without IBD. Furthermore, inpatients with IBD and thromboembolic events have significantly higher mortality, morbidity, colectomy rates and resource utilization. For these reasons, increased awareness and specialized strategies for the prevention and management of thromboembolic events should be considered in inpatients with IBD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Patients with inflammatory bowel disease have an increased risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE) and cardiovascular disease (CVD). The study aims to determine the prevalence of CVD and VTE risk factors in a large population of patients with ulcerative colitis (UC). METHODS We conducted a cross-sectional study in 33 French and Belgium referral centers. A questionnaire was developed to explore self-reported risk factors for VTE and CVD, based on the latest international guidelines, in consecutive patients with UC. RESULTS A total of 1071 patients with UC were included. There were 539 women (50.3%), and the median age of patients was 44 years [32; 57]. The median disease duration was 10 years [6; 17]. In the cohort, 36.5% of patients reported no cardiovascular risk factor (CVRF) and 72% had ≤ 1 CVRF. Regarding cardiovascular risk markers (CVRM) 36.9% of patients reported no CVRM and 78% had ≤ 1 CVRM. Of the 1071 patients, 91.3% of patients reported no VTE strong risk factor and 96% had ≤ 1 VTE moderate risk factor. CONCLUSION This is the first cohort specifically designed to assess both VTE and CVD risks in patients with UC. More than one third of patients with UC had no CVRF and around three quarters had ≤ 1 CVRF. In addition, more than nine out of ten patients had no VTE strong risk factor and ≤ 1 moderate risk factor. Physicians should be aware of these factors in their patients.

Abstract
Introduction The risk of inflammatory bowel disease-associated colorectal cancer (IBD-CRC) is known to increase with primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) and a family history of CRC. However, the impact of comorbidities such as liver disease, obesity, diabetes, chronic lung, heart, and renal disease, and psychiatric illness on the risk of IBD-CRC remains unclear. We evaluated the effect of these comorbidities on the risk of IBD-CRC. Methods A retrospective review from 2009 to 2014 was conducted using the National Inpatient Sample data for adults 18 years and older. Patients with IBD (360,892), of whom 2,831 had CRC were identified using the International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision codes (ICD-9). Data on comorbidities were also obtained. Adjusted odds ratios (aOR) and confidence intervals (CI) were computed via logistic regression to evaluate the effect of comorbidities on the risk of IBD-CRC; the p-value was set at <0.05. Results The mean age of IBD patients in this study was 52.36±0.03. A majority of the patients with IBD-CRC were white and were significantly older compared to those without cancer (60 vs 52 years, p<0.05). The risk of colon cancer in IBD was increased by having a non-cholestatic liver disease (aOR 1.51, CI 1.23-1.86, p<0.01). Also, patients younger than 50 years with liver disease were at an increased risk of IBD-associated colon cancer in comparison to older patients (aOR 1.83 vs 1.34, p<0.05). Notably, diabetes, chronic pulmonary disease, renal failure, psychiatric illnesses, and rheumatoid diseases, were inversely associated with the risk of IBD-CRC (p<0.05). After stratifying by IBD subtypes, non-cholestatic liver disease was still independently associated with a higher risk for colon cancer in patients with ulcerative colitis or Crohn's disease (ulcerative colitis: aOR 1.43, CI 1.08-1.89; Crohn's disease: aOR 1.46, CI 1.10-2.00). Conclusions Patients with IBD who have non-cholestatic liver disease might have a higher risk for colon cancer, even at a younger age. These patients may require close colon cancer surveillance.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The information on the risk of thromboembolism (TE) in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and its predictors are lacking, especially from developing countries. The present study evaluated the prevalence, predictors, and prognosis of TE in IBD. METHODS This case-control study included 35 patients with IBD (ulcerative colitis [UC, n = 25]; Crohn's disease [CD], n = 10) and history of TE, from a cohort of 3597 patients (UC n = 2752, CD n = 845) under follow-up from 2005 to 2018. Details on demographics, extraintestinal manifestations (EIMs), patient status, type and outcomes of TE, treatment details, and disease course were compared with IBD patients without TE (age, gender, and duration of follow-up matched) in the ratio of 1:4. RESULTS Prevalence of TE in IBD was 0.9% (UC-0.89%, CD-1.2%). Among TE patients (mean age: 34.9 ± 13.1 years, 48.6% males), median duration from diagnosis to TE was 12 (inter-quartile range [IQR]: 3-36) months, 37% had other EIMs, 94.1% had moderate/severe disease at time of TE, 62.8% had steroid-dependent/refractory disease, and 5 patients (14.2%) died because of disease-related complications. Lower limb was the commonest site (57.1%), 14.3% had pulmonary TE, and 31.4% had involvement of multiple sites. Phenotypically, more patients with TE (among UC) had steroid-dependent disease (60% vs. 25%, p = 0.001), pancolitis (76% vs. 36%, p = 0.002), chronic continuous disease course (44% vs. 19%, p = 0.009), and acute severe colitis (48% vs. 18%, p = 0.002), of which the latter three were also independent predictors of TE. CONCLUSION Approximately 1% of patients with IBD develop thromboembolism relatively early during their disease course, and TE is associated with severe disease and higher disease-related complications including mortality.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is associated with a variety of extraintestinal manifestations including arterial and venous thromboembolism. Research evidences that IBD patients have about a 2- to 3-fold increase in the risk of venous thromboembolism when compared with the general population. OBJECTIVES We intended to evaluate the coagulation parameters and the prevalence of thromboembolic events (TE) in IBD patients. It was also our aim to investigate the correlation between coagulation parameters and disease phenotype and activity in this population. METHODS This single center prospective observational study was performed between November 2016 and April 2020. The cohort included patients with 18 years of age or older, diagnosed with IBD and followed at a gastroenterology consultation, during a follow-up period of 36 months. Patients were evaluated in terms of IBD type, extent and disease behavior, clinical scores of IBD activity, medication, smoking history, family and personal history of TE, coagulation parameters, fecal calprotectin levels, C-reactive protein (CRP), erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), hospitalization due to TE, IBD-related hospitalization or surgery, pregnancy, or diagnosis of malignancy. RESULTS The study included 149 IBD patients (67 males and 82 females). Coagulation parameters were similar in CD and UC patients and only plasminogen was increased in CD patients [97.4 (17.0) versus 91.6 (13.3), p = 0.035], when comparing with UC patients. The determined values were in the range of the reference values described in literature for the standard population. During the follow-up period, none of the patients experienced a TE that demanded hospitalization. CONCLUSION In our study, acquired and inherited risk factors for TE and changes in coagulation parameters did not show to influence prothrombotic predisposition in IBD patients. As such, the clinical relevance of measuring coagulation parameters in this population is questionable. TRIAL REGISTRY NCT05162339 (ClinicalTrials.gov ID).

Abstract
Patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are at higher risk of venous thrombosis than the general population, with thromboembolism being a recognized extraintestinal manifestation. Although thrombotic events typically present as deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism, other presentations are possible. Cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST) is a relatively rare example associated with high morbidity and a mortality rate of 50% when misdiagnosed or the diagnosis is delayed. Despite this, CVST is a reversible complication with favorable outcomes when diagnosed early and treated appropriately. In this report, we present a case of cerebral sinus thrombosis in a 35-year-old female during a relapse of ulcerative colitis. During the relapse of ulcerative colitis, CVST manifested with a seizure, focal neurological deficit, and altered mental status. After blood workup, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and venography, the diagnosis of CVST was confirmed. We immediately started the patient on low-molecular-weight heparin, and during a six-month follow-up period, she made a full recovery with recanalization of the thrombosis on imaging. Despite CVST being a fatal complication of IBD, our report and data in the literature indicate that full remission is possible when it is correctly diagnosed and treated.

Abstract
Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis are inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs) and they primarily involve the intestines and confer an increased risk of thromboembolism (TE). Here we report a case of a young man with active ulcerative colitis (UC) who presented with shortness of breath and syncope. He was found on imaging to have an extensive bilateral pulmonary embolism (PE) and right heart strain with associated pulmonary infarctions. The patient was initially managed with a heparin infusion and subsequently transitioned to a direct acting oral anticoagulant (DOAC) with clinical improvement in his symptoms.

Abstract
A 17-year-old female presented to our hospital complaining of bloody diarrhea 4-6 times per day for the past month. She was a known case of inflammatory bowel disease noncompliant to her medications. Abdominal computed tomography revealed an unusually dilated mass in the retroperitoneum at L2 vertebral level connecting the lumbar and left renal veins. The renal artery was visualized separately, and a diagnosis of communicating vein varicosity was made. This lesion can be misleading on imaging, hence our aim to disseminate our findings to practicing radiologists. The differential diagnosis of these lesions include retroperitoneal lymphadenopathy, renal artery aneurysms, and testicular cancers causing retroperitoneal lymphadenopathy. To our knowledge, this is the first case to be reported in association with inflammatory bowel disease, perhaps providing a novel insight into the pathogenesis of this lesion that has not been considered in the contemporary literature.

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.

Shujun W, Huijie Z, Xia B, Hongjian W. Cerebral venous sinus thrombosis in patients with inflammatory bowel disease: a retrospective study. Sci Rep 2021; 11:17004. [PMID: 34417546 PMCID: PMC8379267 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-021-96541-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/10/2021] [Accepted: 08/10/2021] [Indexed: 12/15/2022] Open
Abstract
Cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST) is a rare and devastating complication of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Early diagnosis and prompt treatment could improve prognosis. The aim of our study was to investigate the clinical data and predictive factors of inflammatory bowel disease in patients with a diagnosis of CVST. All IBD patient data were collected from July 2013 and September 2020. Clinical data, predictive factors and prognosis were compared between IBD patients with CVST and the IBD control group. The incidence of CVST in our study was 0.48%. The mean age of IBD patients with CVST was 34.9 years. The average duration of IBD was 4 years when cerebrovascular events occurred. The clinical presentation of CVST included headache (73.1%), vomiting (30.8%), limb dysmetria (26.9%), speech impairment (11.5%), blurred vision (7.7%), epileptic seizures (7.7%) and drowsiness (3.8%). The most common location for CVST was the transverse sinus (61.5%) followed by the superior sagittal sinus (30.8%). Anaemia, low albumin and elevated D-dimer were independent predictors of CVST in patients with IBD. Anticoagulation therapy was effective. The prognosis of IBD patients with CVST was worse than that of IBD patients without CVST. Early identification of the risk and clinical features of CVST in IBD patients is important. Prompt antithrombotic therapy is a safe and effective treatment.

[PMID: 34262920 PMCID: PMC8273255 DOI: 10.3389/fmed.2021.693927] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/12/2021] [Accepted: 05/31/2021] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: Patients suffering from chronic inflammatory disorders, such as inflammatory bowel disorder, are at higher risk of developing thromboembolism. The chronic inflammatory nature of inflammatory bowel disease has been identified as a predominant reason for a state of Virchow's triad (i.e., endothelial dysfunction, stasis, and general hypercoagulability), eventually leading to the onset of venous thromboembolism. Recent studies show that certain factors, such as demographics, medication history, and history of surgical intervention may increase thromboembolism risk in patients with inflammatory bowel disease. However, to date, no study has attempted to evaluate the effect of different risk factors associated with the development of venous thromboembolism in inflammatory bowel disease patients. Objective: To evaluate the risk factors that can influence the incidence of venous thromboembolism in patients with inflammatory bowel disease. Methods: Academic literature was systematically searched based on the PRISMA guidelines across five databases: Web of Science, EMBASE, CENTRAL, Scopus, and MEDLINE. A random-effect meta-analysis was conducted to evaluate the hazard ratio for the risk factors (i.e., aging, gender, steroid therapy, surgery, and ulcerative colitis) that can influence the incidence of venous thromboembolism in patients with inflammatory bowel disease. Results: From a total of 963 studies, 18 eligible studies with 1,062,985 (44.59 ± 10.18 years) patients suffering from inflammatory bowel disease were included in the review. A meta-analysis revealed a higher risk of aging (Hazard's ratio: 2.19), steroids (1.87), surgery (1.48), and ulcerative colitis (2.06) on venous thromboembolism in patients with inflammatory bowel disease. We also found that the female gender (0.92) did not increase the incidence of venous thromboembolism in inflammatory bowel disease patients. Conclusion: The study provides preliminary evidence regarding high risks associated with ulcerative colitis, steroid consumption, and aging for the development of venous thromboembolism in patients with inflammatory bowel disease. The findings from this study may contribute to developing awareness among clinicians, better risk stratification and prevention of venous thromboembolic complications in patients with inflammatory bowel disease.

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.

Med Arch 2021; 75:188-193. [PMID: 34483448 PMCID: PMC8385736 DOI: 10.5455/medarh.2021.75.188-193] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/13/2021] [Accepted: 06/20/2021] [Indexed: 11/03/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Thrombosis directly affects the quality of life with increased mortality. The RPL5 (L5) gene on intron 6 on chromosome 1p22, rs6604026 is associated with multiple sclerosis risk, whereas RPL9 (L9) on 8 exons on chromosome 4p14 has been documented so far as being an essential involvement in the proliferation of protein synthesized cells mostly by gene products. OBJECTIVE The aim of this work was to assess genetic variants of RPL5 and RPL9 and thrombosis to characterize their role in the diagnosis of thrombosis among the Saudi population. METHODS The cross-sectional study involved 100 Saudi patients diagnosed with thrombosis (arterial or venous) in 50 healthy individuals as controls in the same age and sex groups. Primers were designed RPL5 and RPL9 for molecular analysis. The Sanger System ABI-3730xL (Hong Kong) automatic sequencing was used for DNA sequencing. Statistical analysis was performed using the Prism 5 and SPSS version-21 programs. RESULTS The male / female age ratio was 66.7 / 57.4, and the mean age was 61.2 years. Most of the patients were self-identifiable and without a previous history of thrombosis (61.0%). Most of the patients had just been diagnosed, that is, in the last five years (74.0%), about 43% of the patients underwent treatment using combination therapy (Aspirin and oral anticoagulants). New gene variants of RPL5 (5 SNPs) and RPL9 (9 SNPs) were detected in Saudi thrombotic patients. CONCLUSION Mutations in RPL5 and RPL9 were reported in all thrombotic patients, represented by a new variant of the ribosomal protein gene and correlated with thrombosis in the Saudi population. These results may reflect an association between the ribosomal protein SNP gene and the incidence and progression of thrombosis in the Saudi population.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease can manifest in many extraintestinal organ systems. The most frequently involved extraintestinal locations include the mucocutaneous, hepatobiliary, and ocular organ systems. The respiratory tract is less commonly involved and is therefore frequently overlooked. Consequently, it is believed that involvement of the respiratory tract in patients with inflammatory bowel disease is underreported. The pathogenesis is thought to be multifactorial, involving the common embryologic origin shared by the respiratory and luminal digestive tract, molecular mimicry, and immunologic interactions leading to immune-complex deposition in affected tissue. The spectrum of manifestations of the respiratory tract related to inflammatory bowel disease is broad. It not only includes direct involvement of the respiratory tract (ie, airways, interstitium, and pleura) but also can result as a consequence of systemic involvement such as in thromboembolic events. In addition, it may also be related to other conditions that affect the respiratory tract such as sarcoidosis and alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency. Though some conditions related to respiratory tract involvement might be subclinical, others may have life-threatening consequences. It is critical to approach patients with suspected inflammatory bowel disease-related respiratory tract involvement in concert with pulmonology, infectious diseases, and any other pertinent experts, as treatments may require a multidisciplinary overlap of measures. Therefore, it is of paramount importance for the clinician to be aware of the array of respiratory tract manifestations of patients with inflammatory bowel disease, in addition to the possible spectrum of therapeutic measures.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) including ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease puts patients at high risk of thromboembolism accidents. These patients may take infliximab for active and fistulating Crohn's disease, which can also increase the risk of thrombosis. Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary thromboembolism (PTE) are more common among these patients, but cerebrovascular, mesenteric, portal and retinal veins can also be affected. In this paper, we report a case of isolated right Labbe vein thrombosis after infliximab therapy for Crohn's disease. To the best of our knowledge, our patient is the first case report of isolated cortical vein thrombosis following administration of rituximab for Crohn's disease.

Abstract
Dysregulation of the proteolytic balance is often associated with diseases. Serine proteases and matrix metalloproteases are involved in a multitude of biological processes and notably in the inflammatory response. Within the framework of digestive inflammation, several studies have stressed the role of serine proteases and matrix metalloproteases (MMPs) as key actors in its pathogenesis and pointed to the unbalance between these proteases and their respective inhibitors. Substantial efforts have been made in developing new inhibitors, some of which have reached clinical trial phases, notwithstanding that unwanted side effects remain a major issue. However, studies on the proteolytic imbalance and inhibitors conception are directed toward host serine/MMPs proteases revealing a hitherto overlooked factor, the potential contribution of their bacterial counterpart. In this review, we highlight the role of proteolytic imbalance in human digestive inflammation focusing on serine proteases and MMPs and their respective inhibitors considering both host and bacterial origin.

Abstract
Ulcerative colitis (UC) is an idiopathic bowel disease involving chronic inflammation and ulcers in colon and implicates severe epithelial damage with disruption in colon homeostasis. Presently existing treatments possess serious concerns like off target effects and adverse reactions, drug inactivation, poor absorption and other complications resulting in poor bioavailability. In context of high risk of thrombotic events in UC patients, heparin can offer appreciable benefits in UC management due to its remarkable anti-coagulating properties, its ability to intervene inflammatory pathways and acceleration of wound healing process. However, oral administration of heparin being impractical due to harsh gastric acidic environment and heparin degradation, conventional heparin administration is done via intravenous route. Present study was designed to formulate, characterize and evaluate sustained release heparin formulation in mice model of experimental colitis. Heparin liposomes (HLp) were formulated by solvent evaporation and extrusion process and possessed hydrodynamic diameter of 242 ± 4.3 nm. Size, shape and surface morphology was confirmed by TEM, SEM and AFM micrographs while encapsulation efficiency and loading of heparin in optimized HLp were 59.61% and 12.27%, respectively. HLp enema administration ameliorated gross disease indices like body weight, colon length, stool consistency, fecal occult blood. Further, anti-inflammatory efficacy of HLp was established in histopathological analysis where HLp appreciably restored protective mucin layer, colon epithelial mucosal histoarchitecture and considerably attenuated mast cell infiltration in colon epithelia. Overall, results of this study indicate that HLp demonstrated an appreciable therapeutic efficacy in experimental colitis and these results are attributed to their ability to suppress inflammation.

Abstract
A 23-year-old man with a known history of Crohn's disease (CD), who underwent an ileocaecal resection for localized disease activity three months ago, suffered from persistent fever with chills since 10 days. Despite the empirical antibiotic therapy that was started, his fever remained. A computed tomography (CT) angiography of the thorax and abdomen revealed a thrombosis of the iliacal veins bilateral and a pulmonary embolism (PE) in the right lower lobe with adjacent infiltrate. Venous thromboembolism (VTE) can be a life-threatening extraintestinal manifestation of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). The risk that IBD patients develop a VTE is three times higher in comparison with healthy controls. They have a higher risk of recurrence and a higher mortality ratio. The pathogenesis of VTE in IBD is complex and until now not fully understood. More awareness should be raised, given the fact that it can be prevented by appropriate thromboprophylaxis.

Abstract
Systemic increased inflammatory mediators' levels are a hallmark in a plethora of pathological conditions, including thrombotic diseases as the envenomation by Bothrops lanceolatus snake. Multiple organ infarctions, which are not prevented by anticoagulant therapy, are the main cause of death on this envenomation. However, the potential mechanisms involved in these systemic reactions are underexplored. This study aimed to explore the potential systemic events which could contribute to thrombotic reactions on the envenomation by B. lanceolatus in an ex vivo human whole-blood model. B. lanceolatus venom elicited an inflammatory reaction, which was characterized by a strong complement activation, since we detected high C3a, C4a and C5a anaphylatoxins levels. Besides, the venom promoted soluble Terminal Complement Complex (sTCC) assembly. Complement activation was accompanied by intense lipid mediators' release, which included LTB4, PGE2 and TXB2. In addition, in the blood exposed to B. lanceolatus venom, we detected IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α interleukins production. Chemokines, including CCL2, CCL5 and CXCL8 were upregulated in the venom presence. These outcomes show that B. lanceolatus venom causes a strong inflammatory reaction in the blood favoring a potential setting to thrombi formation. Thus, inhibiting inflammatory mediators or their receptors may help in the envenomed patients' management.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) may be at risk of developing portal venous system thrombosis (PVST) with worse outcomes. This study aims to explore the prevalence, incidence, and risk factors of PVST among patients with IBD. METHODS PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library databases were searched. All the eligible studies were divided according to the history of colorectal surgery. Only the prevalence of PVST in patients with IBD was pooled if the history of colorectal surgery was unclear. The incidence of PVST in patients with IBD after colorectal surgery was pooled if the history of colorectal surgery was clear. Prevalence, incidence, and risk factors of PVST were pooled by only a random-effects model. Subgroup analyses were performed in patients undergoing imaging examinations. Odds ratios (ORs) with 95% CIs were calculated. RESULTS A total of 36 studies with 143,659 patients with IBD were included. Among the studies where the history of colorectal surgery was unclear, the prevalence of PVST was 0.99, 1.45, and 0.40% in ulcerative colitis (UC), Crohn's disease (CD), and unclassified IBD, respectively. Among the studies where all the patients underwent colorectal surgery, the incidence of PVST was 6.95, 2.55, and 3.95% in UC, CD, and unclassified IBD after colorectal surgery, respectively. Both the prevalence and incidence of PVST became higher in patients with IBD undergoing imaging examinations. Preoperative corticosteroids therapy (OR = 3.112, 95% CI: 1.017-9.525; p = 0.047) and urgent surgery (OR = 1.799, 95% CI: 1.079-2.998; p = 0.024) are significant risk factors of PVST in patients with IBD after colorectal surgery. The mortality of patients with IBD with PVST after colorectal surgery was 4.31% (34/789). CONCLUSION PVST is not rare, but potentially lethal in patients with IBD after colorectal surgery. More severe IBD, indicated by preoperative corticosteroids and urgent surgery, is associated with a higher risk of PVST after colorectal surgery. Therefore, screening for PVST by imaging examinations and antithrombotic prophylaxis in high-risk patients should be actively considered.

Abstract
Background: The neurological manifestation of Behcet's disease (BD) is known as Neuro-Behcet's disease (NBD). The lack of a specific diagnostic method for NBD renders the diagnosis and treatment of NBD challenging. Methods and Results: We report a boy aged 11 years and 11 months who underwent right-eye intraocular lens implantation, appendectomy, perianal abscess removal, thalidomide therapy, and infliximab infusions for his Crohn disease. Magnetic resonance venography (MRV) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) were performed to address the onset of headache during the course of his treatment, and cerebral venous sinus thrombosis was detected. After the diagnosis of NBD, the patient was treated with anticoagulation therapy (nadroparin calcium), low-dose corticosteroids, and an immunosuppressant (cyclophosphamide), and consequently, he recovered. Conclusion: This case report shows that NBD is prone to misdiagnosis and missed diagnosis and should be diagnosed based on clinical manifestations and results from colonoscopy, pathological examination, and MRI or MRV.

Abstract
BACKGROUND New treatments and therapeutic approaches repeatedly emerged in the field of inflammatory bowel disease. AIM to update the French treatment algorithms for Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC). METHODS A formal consensus method was used to determine changes to the treatment algorithms for various situations of CD and UC. Thirty-seven experts voted on questions that had been drafted by the steering committee ahead of time. Consensus was defined as at least 66% of experts agreeing on a response. RESULTS Anti-TNF were reinforced as a first-line therapy rather than the use of immunosuppressant alone. Vedolizumab for UC, ustekinumab for CD took place as second-line maintenance therapy and potentially as a first-line therapy in the setting of unrestricted reimbursement for vedolizumab. Tofacitinib was recommended by the experts in case of vedolizumab failure for UC. Algorithms for complicated CD with abscess, intestinal and complex anal fistula were updated according to recent prospective cohort studies. CONCLUSION The changes incorporated to the algorithms provide up-to-date and easy-to-use guidelines to treat patients with IBD.

Abstract
Acute pancreatitis is an inflammatory condition caused by an insult to the pancreas. Pancreatitis is associated with local and systemic complications such as splenic vein thrombosis and systemic inflammatory response syndromes (SIRS), respectively. Pancreatitis increases the risk of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) through a combination of increased production of pro-inflammatory cytokines and systemic vascular injury. However, DVT and pulmonary embolism remain under-recognized and underappreciated complications of acute pancreatitis as they fall through the cracks in the commonly used venous thromboembolism (VTE) risk assessment model. We therefore propose that VTE prophylaxis needs to be considered by all clinicians when admitting and evaluating patients with acute pancreatitis and that acute pancreatitis needs to be included on the various VTE risk assessment calculators as it is a significant risk factor for the development of VTE.

Abstract
Background/Aims Risk of venous thrombosis is increased in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD); data on Asian IBD patients is limited and status quo of thrombosis screening and prophylaxis are unknown. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the incidence, screening, prophylaxis, and risk factors for venous thrombosis among Asian IBD patients. Methods Medical files of patients with Crohn’s disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC) from 17 hospitals across China between 2011 and 2016 were reviewed for venous thrombosis, use of screening and prophylaxis. A case-control study was performed among hospitalized patients with venous thrombosis and their age-, sex-matched IBD controls hospitalized around the same period; disease characteristics and known provoking factors of venous thrombosis were recorded. Risk factors were analyzed in both univariate and logistic regression analyses. Results A total of 8,459 IBD patients were followed for 12,373 person-year. Forty-six patients (0.54%) had venous thrombosis, yielding an incidence of 37.18 per 10,000 person-year. Incidence increased with age, especially among CD. Less than 20% of patients received screening tests and 35 patients (0.41%) received prophylaxis. Severe disease flare was an independent risk factor for venous thrombosis (odds ratio [95% confidence interval]: CD, 9.342 [1.813– 48.137]; UC, 5.198 [1.268–21.305]); past use of steroids and extensive involvement were 2 additional risk factors in CD and UC, respectively. Conclusions Incidence of venous thrombosis in China was 37.18 per 10,000 person-year (0.54%). Use of screening and prophylaxis were rare. Severe disease flare was an independent risk factor for thrombosis among hospitalized patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Guidelines recommend extended chemoprophylaxis for venous thromboembolism in high-risk patients having operations for inflammatory bowel disease. Quantifying patients' risk of venous thromboembolism, however, remains challenging. We sought (1) to identify factors associated with postdischarge venous thromboembolism in patients undergoing colorectal resection for inflammatory bowel disease and (2) to develop a postdischarge venous thromboembolism risk calculator to guide prescribing of extended chemoprophylaxis. METHODS Patients who underwent an operation for inflammatory bowel disease from 2012 to 2018 were identified from the American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program for colectomy and proctectomy procedure targeted modules. Postdischarge venous thromboembolism included pulmonary embolism or deep vein thrombosis diagnosed after discharge from the index hospitalization. Multivariable logistic regression estimated the association of patient/operative factors with postdischarge venous thromboembolism. A postdischarge venous thromboembolism risk calculator was subsequently constructed. RESULTS Of 18,990 patients, 199 (1.1%) developed a postdischarge venous thromboembolism within the first 30 postoperative days. Preoperative factors associated with postdischarge venous thromboembolism included body mass index (1.9% with body mass index ≥35 vs 0.8% with body mass index 18.5-24.9; odds ratio 2.34 [95% confidence interval 1.49-3.67]), steroid use (1.3% vs 0.7%; odds ratio 1.91 [95% confidence interval 1.37-2.66]), and ulcerative colitis (1.5% vs 0.8% with Crohn's disease; odds ratio 1.76 [95% confidence interval 1.32-2.34]). Minimally invasive surgery was associated with postdischarge venous thromboembolism (1.2% vs 0.9% with open; odds ratio 1.42 [95% confidence interval 1.05-1.92]), as was anastomotic leak (2.8% vs 1.0%; odds ratio 2.24 [95% confidence interval 1.31-3.83]) and ileus (2.1% vs 0.9%; odds ratio 2.60 [95% confidence interval 1.91-3.54]). The predicted probability of postdischarge venous thromboembolism ranged from 0.2% to 14.3% based on individual risk factors. CONCLUSION Preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative factors are associated with postdischarge venous thromboembolism after an operation for inflammatory bowel disease. A postdischarge venous thromboembolism risk calculator was developed which can be used to tailor extended venous thromboembolism chemoprophylaxis by individual risk.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients have a higher risk of thrombosis. Most data about thrombosis in inflammatory bowel disease are related mainly to inpatients with disease activity, but in this article, we report one case of inflammatory bowel disease with two different sites of venous thrombosis which happened in a patient with nonactive IBD at an outpatient setting.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite increased risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE) among hospitalized patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), pharmacologic prophylaxis rates remain low. We sought to understand the reasons for this by assessing factors associated with VTE prophylaxis in patients with IBD and the safety of its use. METHODS This was a retrospective cohort study conducted among patients hospitalized between January 2013 and August 2018. The primary outcome was VTE prophylaxis, and exposures of interest included acute and chronic bleeding. Medical records were parsed electronically for covariables, and logistic regression was used to assess factors associated with VTE prophylaxis. RESULTS There were 22,499 patients studied, including 474 (2%) with IBD. Patients with IBD were less likely to be placed on VTE prophylaxis (79% with IBD, 87% without IBD), particularly if hematochezia was present (57% with hematochezia, 86% without hematochezia). Among patients with IBD, admission to a medical service and hematochezia (adjusted odds ratio 0.27; 95% CI, 0.16-0.46) were among the strongest independent predictors of decreased VTE prophylaxis use. Neither hematochezia nor VTE prophylaxis was associated with increased blood transfusion rates or with a clinically significant decline in hemoglobin level during hospitalization. CONCLUSION Hospitalized patients are less likely to be placed on VTE prophylaxis if they have IBD, and hematochezia may drive this. Hematochezia appeared to be minor and was unaffected by VTE prophylaxis. Education related to the safety of VTE prophylaxis in the setting of minor hematochezia may be a high-yield way to increase VTE prophylaxis rates in patients with IBD.

Abstract
Purpose of review To explore the relationship between IBD (inflammatory bowel diseases) therapy and VTE (venous thromboembolism) risk, as well as the safety, barriers, and utility of VTE prophylaxis. Recent findings In 2019, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued a black box warning concerning the use of tofacitinib among ulcerative colitis (UC) patients with a post hoc analysis revealing that all patients had additional risk factors for VTE. Additionally, although IBD patients experiencing a disease flare often present with hematochezia, these patients are less likely to receive VTE prophylaxis, despite data showing that pharmacologic prophylaxis has not been associated with clinically significant signs of bleeding. Summary Among IBD patients, corticosteroid use has been associated with an increased risk of VTE, whereas anti-TNF therapy does not appear to increase this risk. High-dose tofacitinib has also been shown to increase the likelihood of VTE in patients with additional risk factors. In order to prevent future VTE events, pharmacologic thromboprophylaxis should be emphasized, particularly in hospitalized IBD patients, with recent data suggesting that a select population at risk may benefit from continued prophylaxis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND As Crohn's disease (CD) is associated with a high risk of thromboembolic events (TE), including patients with subclinical inflammation, we aim to evaluate the correlation between the impact of endoscopic activity (EA) in the coagulation profiling of CD patients while in clinical remission. METHODS From 164 consecutive CD patients included in clinical remission [Crohn's disease activity index (CDAI) < 150], 75 were in the EA group [Simplified Endoscopic Score for CD (SES-CD) ⩾ 7], 89 were in the endoscopic remission (ER) group (SES-CD ⩽ 2), and 50 were included as healthy controls in the study. Blood samples were analyzed for tissue factor (TF), factor VIII (FVIII), thrombomodulin (TM), ADAMTS-13, von Willebrand factor (VWF), and endogenous thrombin potential (ETP), as well as collecting data regarding risk factors for TE and CD profile. RESULTS Mean plasma TF activity showed significantly higher levels in the EA group when compared with the ER and control groups (127 pM versus 103 pM versus 84 pM; p = 0.001), although the VWF:Ag (160% versus 168% versus 110%; p = 0.001), VWF/ADAMTS-13 (191 versus 219 versus 138; p = 0.003), FVIII (150% versus 144% versus 90%; p = 0.001) and TM (5.13 ng/ml versus 4.91 ng/mL versus 3.81 ng/ml; p < 0.001) were only increased in CD regardless of EA status when compared with controls. Lastly, ETP with and without TM remained the same in all three groups. CONCLUSIONS CD patients in clinical remission with EA present endothelial lesion inducing TF exposure and subsequent coagulation cascade activation. Recommended thromboprophylaxis for EA outpatient subgroups will require additional investigation in order to be validated.

Abstract
AIM Patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are at increased risk of postoperative venous thromboembolism (VTE) following major abdominal surgery. The pathogenesis is multifactorial and not fully understood. A combination of pathophysiology, patient and surgical risk factors increase the risk of postoperative VTE in these patients. Despite being at increased risk, IBD patients are not regularly prescribed extended pharmacological thromboprophylaxis following colorectal surgery. Currently, there is a paucity of evidence-based guidelines. Thus, the aim of this review is to evaluate the role of extended pharmacological thromboprophylaxis in IBD patients undergoing colorectal surgery. METHOD A search of Ovid Medline, EMBASE and PubMed databases was performed. A qualitative analysis was performed using 10 clinical questions developed by colorectal surgeons and a thrombosis haematologist. The Newcastle-Ottawa Scale was utilized to assess the quality of evidence. RESULTS A total of 1229 studies were identified, 38 of which met the final inclusion criteria (37 retrospective, one case-control). Rates of postoperative VTE ranged between 0.6% and 8.9%. Patient-specific risk factors for postoperative VTE included ulcerative colitis, increased age and obesity. Surgery-specific risk factors for postoperative VTE included open surgery, emergent surgery and ileostomy creation. Patients with IBD were more frequently at increased risk in the included studies for postoperative VTE than patients with colorectal cancer. The risk of bias assessment demonstrated low risk of bias in patient selection and comparability, with variable risk of bias in reported outcomes. CONCLUSION There is a lack of evidence regarding the use of extended pharmacological thromboprophylaxis in patients with IBD following colorectal surgery. As these patients are at heightened risk of postoperative VTE, future study and consideration of the use of extended pharmacological thromboprophylaxis is warranted.

Acute Venous Thromboembolism Risk Highest Within 60 Days After Discharge From the Hospital in Patients With Inflammatory Bowel Diseases. Clin Gastroenterol Hepatol 2020; 18:1133-1141.e3. [PMID: 31336196 PMCID: PMC6980437 DOI: 10.1016/j.cgh.2019.07.028] [Citation(s) in RCA: 43] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/26/2019] [Revised: 06/19/2019] [Accepted: 07/12/2019] [Indexed: 02/06/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Patients with inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs) have a high risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE). We assessed the timing and risk factors associated with readmission to the hospital for VTE among patients with IBD. METHODS We collected data from the Nationwide Readmissions Database on IBD index admissions resulting in readmission to the hospital for VTE within 60 days, from 2010 through 2014. We used univariable and multivariable regression to assess risk factors associated with VTE readmission with unadjusted risk ratio (RR) and adjusted RR (aRR) as measures of effect. Time to VTE readmission was assessed in 10-day intervals, for up to 90 days. RESULTS We identified 872,122 index admissions of patients with IBD; 1160 resulted in readmission with VTE. More than 90% of readmissions occurred within 60 days of discharge from the index admission. Factors associated with hospital readmission with VTE included prior VTE, longer length of hospital stay, comorbidities, having a flexible sigmoidoscopy or colonoscopy at index admission, and age older than 18 years. Additional risk factors included Clostridium difficile infection at index admission (aRR, 1.47; 95% CI, 1.17-1.85) and discharge to a skilled nursing facility or intermediate care facility (aRR, 1.39; 95% CI, 1.14-1.70) or discharge with home health services (aRR, 1.65; 95% CI, 1.41-1.94). CONCLUSIONS Among patients admitted to the hospital with IBD, most readmissions with VTE occur within 60 days of discharge. Readmission with VTE is associated with C difficile infection and discharge to a skilled nursing facility, intermediate care facility, or with home health services. Studies are needed to evaluate the potential benefit of extending VTE prophylaxis for patients admitted to the hospital with IBD for up to 2 months after discharge, to minimize risk.

Abstract
Inflammasome complex is a multimeric protein comprising of upstream sensor protein of nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain (NOD)-like receptor family. It has an adaptor protein apoptosis-associated speck-like protein and downstream effector cysteine protease procaspase-1. Activation of inflammasome complex is body’s innate response to pathogen attack but its abnormal activation results in many inflammatory and cardiovascular disorders including thrombosis. It has displayed a prominent role in the clot formation advocating an interplay between inflammation and coagulation cascades. Therefore, elucidation of inflammasome and its molecular mechanisms in the manifestation of prothrombotic phenotypes becomes pertinent. Thrombosis is the formation and propagation of blood clot in the arterial or venous system due to several interactions of vascular and immune factors. It is a prevalent pathology underlying disorders like venous thromboembolism, stroke and acute coronary syndrome; thus, making thrombosis, a major contributor to the global disease burden. Recently studies have established a strong connection of inflammatory processes with this blood coagulation disorder. The hemostatic balance in thrombosis gets altered by the inflammatory mechanisms resulting in endothelial and platelet activation that subsequently increases secretion of several prothrombotic and antifibrinolytic factors. The upregulation of these factors is the critical event in the pathogenesis of thrombosis. Among various inflammasome, nucleotide-binding domain, leucine-rich-containing family, pyrin domain containing 3 (NLRP3) is one of the best-studied sterile inflammasome strengthening a link between inflammation and coagulation in thrombosis. NLRP3 activation results in the catalytic conversion of procaspase-1 to active caspase-1, which facilitate the maturation of interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and interleukin-18. These cytokines are responsible for immune cells activation critical for immune responses. These responses further results in endothelial and platelet activation and aggregation. However, the exact molecular mechanism related to the pathogenesis of thrombosis is still elusive. There have been several reports that demonstrate Tissue factor (TF)-mediated signaling in the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines enhancing inflammation by activating protease-activated receptors on various cells, which lead to additional cytokine expression. Therefore, it would be illuminating to interpret the inflammasomes regulation in coagulation and inflammation. This review, thus, tries to comprehensively compile emerging regulatory roles of the inflammasomes in thrombosis and discusses their molecular pathways in the manifestation of thrombotic phenotypes.

Abstract
The association between chronic inflammatory diseases (CIDs) and increased cardiovascular (CV) risk is well documented and can be a most threatening complication in these patients. However, the pathogenetic mechanisms underlying increased CV risk remain elusive, especially in their cellular and biochemical pathways. Using animal models to understand mechanisms underlying cardiac involvement are limited. Additionally, treatments may influence cardiovascular events through different outcomes. Some drugs used to treat CIDs can negatively affect cardiac function by a direct toxicity, whereas others may protect the myocardium. In the present article, we focus on the cardiac manifestations and risk factors, the pathogenetic mechanisms, and the effect of treatments on myocardial function and cardioprotection for five common worldwide CIDs (rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, systemic sclerosis, psoriasis and inflammatory bowel disease). We also give recommendations in order to evaluate common targets between CID and CV disease (CVD) and to design therapies to alleviate CID-related CVD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Intestinal inflammation is associated with bleeding and thrombosis, two processes that may involve both platelets and neutrophils. However, the mechanisms and the respective contribution of these cells to intestinal bleeding and extra-intestinal thrombosis remain largely unknown. OBJECTIVE Our study aimed at investigating the mechanisms underlying the maintenance of vascular integrity and thrombosis in intestinal inflammation. METHODS We used a mouse model of acute colitis induced by oral administration of dextran sodium sulfate (DSS) for 7 days. Bleeding was assessed after depletion of platelets, neutrophils, or glycoprotein VI (GPVI); treatment with aspirin or clopidogrel; or in P2X1-deficient mice. Extra-intestinal thrombosis was analyzed using a laser-induced injury model of thrombosis in cremaster muscle arterioles. RESULTS Platelet depletion or P2X1 deficiency led to macrocytic regenerative anemia due to intestinal hemorrhage. In contrast, GPVI, P2Y12, and thromboxane A2 were dispensable. Platelet P-selectin expression and regulated on activation, normal T-cell expressed and secreted (RANTES) plasma levels were lower in DSS-treated P2X1-deficient mice as compared to wild-type mice, indicative of a platelet secretion defect. Circulating neutrophils had a more activated phenotype, and neutrophil infiltration in the colon was increased. P2X1-deficient mice also had elevated plasma granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) levels. Neutrophil depletion limited blood loss in these mice, whereas exogenous administration of G-CSF in colitic wild-type mice caused macrocytic anemia. Anemic colitic P2X1-deficient mice formed atypical neutrophil- and fibrin-rich, and platelet-poor thrombi upon arteriolar endothelial injury. CONCLUSIONS Platelets and P2X1 ion channels are mandatory to preserve vascular integrity in inflamed intestine. Upon P2X1 deficiency, neutrophils contribute to bleeding and they may also be responsible for enhanced thrombosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The "Choosing Wisely" campaigns have the aim of promoting a better clinician-patient relationship. AIMS The Italian Group for the Study of Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IG-IBD) conducted a choosing wisely campaign for IBD. METHODS Ten IG-IBD panellists conducted the campaign through a modified Delphi process. All IG-IBD members were asked to submit five statements starting with "Do not…" addressing any IBD-related procedure or treatment the necessity of which should be questioned. All recommendations were evaluated by the panellists who prioritised each item. The top ten recommendations were prioritised again by IG-IBD members, and the top five recommendations were identified. RESULTS 110 members (mean age 42 ± 12; 62 males) participated in the campaign. The top five recommendations were as follow: 1. Do not use corticosteroids for maintenance therapy, or without a clear indication; 2. Do not forget venous thromboembolism prophylaxis in hospitalised patients with active disease; 3. Do not treat perianal Crohn's disease with biologics without prior surgical evaluation; 4. Do not discontinue IBD-related medications during pregnancy unless specifically indicated; 5. Do not delay surgery. CONCLUSION The IG-IBD promoted a campaign with a bottom-up approach, identifying five recommendations that could be useful for providing a better IBD care, especially among non-IBD experts.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW To review the association of venous thrombosis and inflammatory disorders. RECENT FINDINGS Various systemic inflammatory diseases of which Behçet's syndrome is the prototype are associated with an increased risk of venous thrombosis. Recent data indicate that venous wall thickness is increased among Behçet's syndrome patients with no history of venous thrombosis and thrombosis in Behçet's syndrome could be a unique model of inflammation-induced thrombosis. Patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) have a two to three time-fold increased risk of developing thromboembolic complications compared with general population. The risk of venous thrombosis is increased after surgical interventions and is higher in ulcerative colitis compared with Crohn's disease. Despite similarities with Behçet's syndrome, anticoagulation is advised as the main treatment in IBD, while there is uncertainty about the duration of antithrombotic prophylaxis. Antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-associated vasculitides and ankylosing spondylitis are also other inflammatory disorders associated with a thrombotic risk. SUMMARY Underlying mechanisms of venous thrombosis in inflammatory disorders are not clearly understood. How we might prevent thrombosis, should we screen asymptomatic patients, what should we use for the treatment (immunosuppression or anticoagulation or both) and what should be the duration of this treatment also need to be addressed. Finally, the link between inflammation and thrombosis should be more intensively studied.

Abstract
Cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST) in childhood is uncommon. Certain diseases predispose patients to CVST, such as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), which is considered a risk factor for developing thrombosis, which in turn is considered an extraintestinal manifestation of IBD. The use of prophylaxis in certain patients is a controversial topic. We present the case of a 5-years-old child with ulcerative colitis, who presented with transverse sinus thrombosis immediately after colectomy. Considering the recent recommendations on prophylaxis in this disease, our patient and probably many others would benefit from establishing treatment with low-molecular-weight heparin. We believe that these recommendations should be known, with our case serving as an example, given that we are heading in a direction that has so far been controversial.

Abstract
Behçet's syndrome (BS) is a complex disease with different organ involvement. The vascular one is the most intriguing, considering the existence of a specific group of patients suffering from recurrent vascular events involving the venous and, more rarely, the arterial vessels. Several clinical clues suggest the inflammatory nature of thrombosis in BS, especially of the venous involvement, thus BS is considered a model of inflammation-induced thrombosis. Unique among other inflammatory conditions, venous involvement (together with the arterial one) is currently treated with immunosuppressants, rather than with anti-coagulants. Although many in-vitro studies have suggested the different roles of the multiple players involved in clot formation, in-vivo models are crucial to study this process in a physiological context. At present, no clear mechanisms describing the pathophysiology of thrombo-inflammation in BS exist. Recently, we focused our attention on BS patients as a human in-vivo model of inflammation-induced thrombosis to investigate a new mechanism of clot formation. Indeed, fibrinogen displays a critical role not only in inflammatory processes, but also in clot formation, both in the fibrin network and in platelet aggregation. Reactive oxygen species (ROS)-derived modifications represent the main post-translational fibrinogen alterations responsible for structural and functional changes. Recent data have revealed that neutrophils (pivotal in the pathogenetic mechanisms leading to BS damage) promote fibrinogen oxidation and thrombus formation in BS. Altogether, these new findings may help understand the pathogenetic bases of inflammation-induced thrombosis and, more importantly, may suggest potential targets for innovative therapeutic approaches.

Abstract
Coagulopathies and inflammatory diseases, ostensibly, have distinct underlying molecular bases. Notwithstanding, both are host defense mechanisms to physical injury. In invertebrates, clotting can function directly in anti-pathogen defense. Molecules of the vertebrate clotting cascade have also been directly linked to the regulation of inflammation. We posit that thrombophilia may provide resistance against pathogens in vertebrates. The selective pressure of improved anti-pathogen defense may have retained mutations associated with a thrombophilic state in the human population and directly contributed to enhanced inflammation. Indeed, in some inflammatory diseases, at least a subset of patients can be identified as hypercoagulable. Therefore, anticoagulants such as warfarin or apixaban may have a therapeutic role in some inflammatory diseases.
