Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is rapidly emerging in the Asia Pacific region. However, there are many challenges in the diagnosis and management of this condition. The Asian Pacific Association of Gastroenterology (APAGE) Working Group on IBD conducted a round table meeting to identify 10 common mistakes in the management of IBD in Asia. To summarize, many physicians still over rely on a definitive histological diagnosis before starting treatment and do not fully establish disease extent such as perianal and proximal gastrointestinal involvement in Crohn's disease (CD) or extent of involvement in ulcerative colitis (UC). It is also essential to actively look for evidence of extra-intestinal manifestations, which may influence choice of therapy. In terms of conventional therapy, underuse of topical 5 aminosalicylates (5-ASAs) in UC and inappropriate dosing of corticosteroids are also important considerations. Acute severe UC remains a life-threatening condition and delay in starting rescue therapy after inadequate response to intravenous steroids is still common. Anti-tumor necrosis factors should be considered first line in all cases of complex perianal fistulizing CD. Most patients with IBD are on potent immunosuppressive therapy and should be screened for latent infections and offered vaccinations according to guidelines. Under-recognition and management of significant complications such as anemia, osteoporosis, malnutrition, and thromboembolism should also be addressed. Colonoscopy is still not properly performed for dysplasia/cancer surveillance and for evaluating post-op recurrence of CD. Another common misstep is inappropriate withdrawal of medications during pregnancy leading to increased complications for the mother and the newborn.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) displays an increased venous and arterial thrombotic risk despite the common occurrence of intestinal bleeding. While some of the mechanisms leading to these thrombotic complications have been studied, other specific changes in the hemostasis profile of IBD patients have been less explored. One such example relates to von Willebrand factor (VWF) whose plasma levels have been reported to be modulated in IBD. Von Willebrand factor is a plasma glycoprotein crucial for hemostatic functions via roles both in platelet function and coagulation. High plasma VWF is a known risk factor for venous thromboembolism. In addition to its canonical roles in hemostasis, VWF is known to be directly or indirectly involved in other vascular processes such as maintenance of endothelial barrier integrity or proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells. The purpose of this review is to recapitulate and update the existing data about VWF biology in IBD and to highlight its role both in the existing procoagulant phenotype and in vascular alterations that may occur in IBD.

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
AIMS Although the risk of thrombosis is well documented for inflammatory bowel disease [IBD] patients, the underlying pathological mechanism seems to be different from other thrombotic conditions. Determining the factors responsible for the increased risk of thrombosis in IBD would help to improve the management of this frequent complication. METHODS We studied the interplay between platelets, coagulation, and von Willebrand factor [VWF] in 193 IBD patients and in experimental models [acute and chronic] of colitis in wild-type and VWF-deficient mice. RESULTS We found a platelet-dependent increase in thrombin generation in IBD patients and in our mouse model of colitis. Agglutinated platelets were present in the blood of patients and mice. Interestingly, we observed not only a significant increase in total VWF antigen, but we were also able to detect the presence of active VWF [VWF in its platelet-binding conformation; 3.2 ± 2.7 μg/mL] in the plasma of 30% of all IBD patients. In healthy controls, active VWF levels were <0.3 μg/mL. This led us to further explore experimental colitis in VWF-deficient mice and we observed that these mice were protected against the procoagulant state triggered by the colitis. Unexpectedly, these mice also showed a significant worsening of colitis severity in both acute and chronic models. CONCLUSION Platelets and VWF [including its active form] appear to be central players in the procoagulant phenotype in IBD. We observed that the role of VWF in haemostasis differs from its role in colonic tissue healing, potentially opening new therapeutic avenues for a life-threatening complication in IBD patients.

Abstract
Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the intestines that can significantly impact quality of life and lead to various complications. Currently, 5-aminosalicylic acid derivatives, corticosteroids, immunosuppressants, and biologics are the major treatment strategies for UC, but their limitations have raised concerns. Atractylenolides (ATs), sesquiterpene metabolites found in Atractylodes macrocephala Koidz., have shown promising effects in treating UC by exerting immune barrier modulation, alleviating oxidative stress, gut microbiota regulation, improving mitochondrial dysfunction and repairing the intestinal barrier. Furthermore, ATs have been shown to possess remarkable anti-fibrosis, anti-thrombus, anti-angiogenesis and anti-cancer. These findings suggest that ATs hold important potential in treating UC and its complications. Therefore, this review systematically summarizes the efficacy and potential mechanisms of ATs in treating UC and its complications, providing the latest insights for further research and clinical applications.

Abstract
ABSTRACT VEXAS (vacuoles, E1 enzyme, X-linked, autoinflammatory, somatic) syndrome, caused by somatic mutations in UBA1, is an autoinflammatory disorder with diverse systemic manifestations. Thrombosis is a prominent clinical feature of VEXAS syndrome. The risk factors and frequency of thrombosis in VEXAS syndrome are not well described, due to the disease's recent discovery and the paucity of large databases. We evaluated 119 patients with VEXAS syndrome for venous and arterial thrombosis and correlated their presence with clinical outcomes and survival. Thrombosis occurred in 49% of patients, mostly venous thromboembolism (VTE; 41%). Almost two-thirds of VTEs were unprovoked, 41% were recurrent, and 20% occurred despite anticoagulation. The cumulative incidence of VTE was 17% at 1 year from symptom onset and 40% by 5 years. Cardiac and pulmonary inflammatory manifestations were associated with time to VTE. M41L was positively associated specifically with pulmonary embolism by univariate (odds ratio [OR]: 4.58, confidence interval [CI] 1.28-16.21, P = .02) and multivariate (OR: 16.94, CI 1.99-144.3, P = .01) logistic regression. The cumulative incidence of arterial thrombosis was 6% at 1 year and 11% at 5 years. The overall survival of the entire patient cohort at median follow-up time of 4.8 years was 88%, and there was no difference in survival between patients with or without thrombosis (P = .8). Patients with VEXAS syndrome are at high risk of VTE; thromboprophylaxis should administered be in high-risk settings unless strongly contraindicated.

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.

J Crohns Colitis 2024; 18:488-491. [PMID: 37702408 DOI: 10.1093/ecco-jcc/jjad158] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/20/2023] [Revised: 08/11/2023] [Accepted: 09/11/2023] [Indexed: 09/14/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Older patients with ulcerative colitis treated with tofacitinib are at risk for major cardiovascular events, thromboembolism, herpes zoster, and malignancies and, accordingly, its use is limited by the regulatory authorities. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the occurrence of adverse events and potential preventive measures. METHODS We retrospectively evaluated patients treated with tofacitinib, divided into two groups according to comorbidities and age. Patient- and disease-related variables were recorded [primary non-response, loss of response, and persistence], together with deviations from the recommended induction regimen, ie, dose reduction, and concomitant treatments with anti-thrombotic therapy. RESULTS The age-adjusted Charlson comorbidity index of Group 1 [n = 30] was ≥2 and that of Group 2 [n = 37] was ≤ 1. No differences were observed for primary or secondary treatment failures. Both groups achieved comparable steroid-free remission rates at 12 months [53% and 46%, respectively]. Herpes zoster occurred in two patients per group, and no more cases occurred after strict recombinant zoster vaccination. No major cardiovascular event or thromboembolism was registered. Half of patients in Group 1 were treated with a reduced induction dose of 5 mg twice daily and 47% were on concomitant anti-thrombotic therapy. Malignancies were registered in two patients from Group 1 and one patient from Group 2. CONCLUSIONS Modulation of induction dose and anti-thrombotic therapy may have contributed to prevent cardiological events and thromboembolism. The introduction of zoster vaccine virtually eliminated zoster risk after the first cases. Potential malignancies deserve a careful work-up of older patients before treatment start.

Abstract
The interplay between inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) underscores the intricate connections between chronic inflammation and cardiovascular health. This review explores the multifaceted relationship between these conditions, highlighting the emerging significance of the coronary calcium score as a pivotal tool in risk assessment and management. Chronic inflammation, a hallmark of IBD, has far-reaching systemic effects that extend to the cardiovascular system. Shared risk factors and mechanisms, such as endothelial dysfunction, lipid dysfunction, and microbiome dysregulation, contribute to the elevated ASCVD risk observed in individuals with IBD. Amidst this landscape, the coronary calcium score emerges as a means to quantify calcified plaque within coronary arteries, offering insights into atherosclerotic burden and potential risk stratification. The integration of the coronary calcium score refines cardiovascular risk assessment, enabling tailored preventive strategies for individuals with IBD. By identifying those at elevated risk, healthcare providers can guide interventions, fostering informed shared decision-making. Research gaps persist, prompting further investigation into mechanisms linking IBD and ASCVD, particularly in the context of intermediate mechanisms and early atherosclerotic changes. The potential of the coronary calcium score extends beyond risk assessment-it holds promise for targeted interventions. Randomized trials exploring the impact of IBD-modifying therapies on ASCVD risk reduction can revolutionize preventive strategies. As precision medicine gains prominence, the coronary calcium score becomes a beacon of insight, illuminating the path toward personalized cardiovascular care for individuals living with IBD. Through interdisciplinary collaboration and rigorous research, we embark on a journey to transform the paradigm of preventive medicine and enhance the well-being of this patient population.

Abstract
Patients diagnosed with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), which encompasses Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, experience chronic inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract. Those with IBD face a higher risk of developing venous thromboembolism (VTE) compared to individuals without IBD. This escalated risk is associated with various factors, some modifiable and others non-modifiable, with disease activity being the primary concern. Interestingly, Janus Kinase inhibitors approved for the treatment of IBD may be associated with an increased risk of VTE but only in patients that have other underlying risk factors leading to an overall increased VTE risk. Several recognized medical societies have recommended the use of VTE prophylaxis for hospitalized individuals with IBD. The association between VTE and IBD and the need for pharmacologic prophylaxis remains under-recognized. Increased awareness of this complication can hopefully protect patients from a potentially deadly complication.

Abstract
It is estimated that 2% to 3% of the population are currently prescribed systemic or topical glucocorticoid treatment. The potent anti-inflammatory action of glucocorticoids to deliver therapeutic benefit is not in doubt. However, the side effects associated with their use, including central weight gain, hypertension, insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes (T2D), and osteoporosis, often collectively termed iatrogenic Cushing's syndrome, are associated with a significant health and economic burden. The precise cellular mechanisms underpinning the differential action of glucocorticoids to drive the desirable and undesirable effects are still not completely understood. Faced with the unmet clinical need to limit glucocorticoid-induced adverse effects alongside ensuring the preservation of anti-inflammatory actions, several strategies have been pursued. The coprescription of existing licensed drugs to treat incident adverse effects can be effective, but data examining the prevention of adverse effects are limited. Novel selective glucocorticoid receptor agonists and selective glucocorticoid receptor modulators have been designed that aim to specifically and selectively activate anti-inflammatory responses based upon their interaction with the glucocorticoid receptor. Several of these compounds are currently in clinical trials to evaluate their efficacy. More recently, strategies exploiting tissue-specific glucocorticoid metabolism through the isoforms of 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase has shown early potential, although data from clinical trials are limited. The aim of any treatment is to maximize benefit while minimizing risk, and within this review we define the adverse effect profile associated with glucocorticoid use and evaluate current and developing strategies that aim to limit side effects but preserve desirable therapeutic efficacy.

Abstract
Autoimmune diseases have specific pathophysiologic mechanisms leading to an increased risk of arterial and venous thrombosis. The risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE) varies according to the type and stage of the disease, and to concomitant treatments. In this review, we revise the most common autoimmune disease such as antiphospholipid syndrome, inflammatory myositis, polymyositis and dermatomyositis, rheumatoid arthritis, sarcoidosis, Sjogren syndrome, autoimmune haemolytic anaemia, systemic lupus erythematosus, systemic sclerosis, vasculitis and inflammatory bowel disease. We also provide an overview of pathophysiology responsible for the risk of VTE in each autoimmune disorder, and report current indications to anticoagulant treatment for primary and secondary prevention of VTE.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES In addition to gastrointestinal symptoms, pediatric inflammatory bowel disease (pIBD) may present with extra-intestinal manifestations including venous thromboembolism (VTE). Prevention and treatment guidelines for VTE in pediatric patients are needed. In this scoping review, we sought to detail the available data on the prevention and management of VTE in pIBD. METHODS Using PRISMA extension for Scoping Reviews (PRISMA-ScR), we identified, screened, graded quality of, and analyzed, literature on VTE in pediatric IBD, published between 1967 and 2023. RESULTS Data were extracted from 107 studies (including 216 patients). IBD patients with VTE had a median age of 14 years. Children with VTE more frequently had ulcerative colitis (70%, n = 216), developed their VTE within the first year of IBD diagnosis (52%, n = 97), had recent steroid use (62%, n = 50), and had central venous catheters (38%, n = 42). Cerebral venous sinus thrombus was the most common VTE type (34% of all VTE). Testing for thrombophilia conditions was rarely available but 65% (n = 23) of subjects tested had elevated Factor VIII activity. While most patients made a full recovery, 5% (n = 11) died secondary to their VTE. CONCLUSIONS While randomized clinical trials assessing interventions to prevent and treat VTE in pIBD would be ideal, the feasibility of doing such studies is low. However, there has been an increase in interest in this topic and an increase in literature over the past decade. As such, a consensus statement from a multidisciplinary group of experts based on available literature and clinical experience would be valuable for practicing clinicians.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs) are chronic inflammatory disorders of the gastrointestinal tract including Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, which may result in several extraintestinal complications (∼20-30% of cases), such as increased risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE). The main pathophysiological mechanism of VTE is an inflammation-induced hypercoagulable state, and recent data have shown that endothelial dysregulation due to gut and systemic inflammation may also lead to a prothrombotic state. Several prothrombotic alterations have been described, such as the activation of the coagulation system, platelet abnormalities, and dysregulation of fibrinolysis. Furthermore, the dysregulation of the gut microbiome seems to play a vital role in increasing systemic inflammation and thus inducing a procoagulant state. Our review aims to examine the main correlations between IBD and VTE, the underlying pathophysiology, and current therapeutic options.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), consisting of ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease, mainly affects the gastrointestinal tract but is also known to have extraintestinal manifestations because of long-standing systemic inflammation. Several national cohort studies have found that IBD is an independent risk factor for the development of cardiovascular disorders. However, the molecular mechanisms by which IBD impairs the cardiovascular system are not fully understood. Although the gut-heart axis is attracting more attention in recent years, our knowledge of the organ-to-organ communication between the gut and the heart remains limited. In patients with IBD, upregulated inflammatory factors, altered microRNAs and lipid profiles, as well as dysbiotic gut microbiota, may induce adverse cardiac remodeling. In addition, patients with IBD have a three- to four times higher risk of developing thrombosis than people without IBD, and it is believed that the increased risk of thrombosis is largely due to increased procoagulant factors, platelet count/activity, and fibrinogen concentration, in addition to decreased anticoagulant factors. The predisposing factors for atherosclerosis are present in IBD and the possible mechanisms may involve oxidative stress system, overexpression of matrix metalloproteinases, and changes in vascular smooth muscle phenotype. This review focuses mainly on 1) the prevalence of cardiovascular diseases associated with IBD, 2) the potential pathogenic mechanisms of cardiovascular diseases in patients with IBD, and 3) adverse effects of IBD drugs on the cardiovascular system. Also, we introduce here a new paradigm for the gut-heart axis that includes exosomal microRNA and the gut microbiota as a cause for cardiac remodeling and fibrosis.

Abstract
Patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), both Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, frequently experience venous thromboembolism (VTE), a potentially fatal consequence. The pathophysiological mechanisms contributing to VTE include inflammation, modifications in coagulation factors, endothelial dysfunction, and platelet activation. Numerous pro-inflammatory cytokines and markers, such as tumor necrosis factor-alpha and interleukin-6, have a significant impact on the thrombotic cascade. Patients with IBD are more likely to suffer VTE for a variety of causes. Exacerbations of preexisting conditions, admission to the hospital, surgical intervention, immobilization, corticosteroid usage, central venous catheterization, and hereditary susceptibility all fit into this category. The mainstay of therapy for VTE in IBD patients includes anticoagulation that is individualized for each patient depending on the thrombosis site, severity, bleeding risk, and interaction with other drugs. In some high-risk IBD patients, such as those having major surgery or hospitalized with severe flare, preventive anticoagulation may play a role. However, the acceptance rate for this recommendation is low. Additionally, there is a subset of patients who would require extended thromboprophylaxis. The majority of the studies that looked into this question consisted of patients in the surgical setting. Emerging data suggest that risk factors other than surgery can also dictate the duration of anticoagulation. While extending anticoagulation in all patients may help reduce VTE-related mortality, identifying these risk factors is important. Hence, the decision to initiate prophylaxis should be individualized, considering the overall thrombotic and bleeding risks. This review explores the relationship between IBD and VTE, including risk factors, epidemiology, and prevention. A multifactorial approach involving aggressive management of underlying inflammation, identification of modifiable risk factors, and judicious use of anticoagulant therapy is essential for reducing the burden of VTE in this vulnerable population.

Abstract
With the introduction of more and more monoclonal antibodies selectively targeting various mediators of the immune system, together with Janus-Kinase (JAK)-inhibitors with variable affinities towards different JAK subtypes, the available therapeutic options for the treatment of inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) have undergone an acceleration in the last five years. On the other hand, the prevalence of IBD patients over 65-years-old is steadily increasing, and, with this, there is a large population of patients that presents more comorbidities, polypharmacy, and, more frequently, frailty compared to younger patients, exposing them to potentially major risks for adverse events deriving from newer therapies, e.g., infections, cardiovascular risks, and malignancies. Unfortunately, pivotal trials for the commercialization of new therapies rarely include older IBD patients, and those with serious comorbidities are virtually excluded. In the present review, we focus on existing literature from pivotal trials and real-world studies, analyzing data on efficacy/effectiveness and safety of newer therapies in older IBD patients with special emphasis on comorbidities and frailty, two distinct but intercorrelated aspects of the older population since age by itself seems to be of minor importance.

Abstract
RATIONALE Ulcerative colitis (UC) is an autoimmune disease of unknown etiology, sometimes associated with anemia and thrombocytosis. Platelets (PLTs) play a role in amplifying inflammatory and immune responses in chronic inflammation. This study discusses the diagnosis and treatment of a case of UC combined with secondary thrombocytosis and reviews the relevant literature. We report an interaction between thrombocytosis and UC to raise clinicians' awareness of this condition. PATIENT CONCERNS In the current report, we discuss the case of a 30-year-old female patient who presented with frequent diarrhea and thrombocytosis. DIAGNOSIS Severe UC combined with intestinal infection was diagnosed based on colonoscopy and intestinal biopsy. The patient had a PLT count >450 × 109/L and was diagnosed with reactive thrombocytosis. INTERVENTIONS AND OUTCOMES The patient was discharged from the hospital in remission after receiving vedolizumab and anticoagulant treatment. LESSONS In patients with severe UC with thrombocytosis, clinicians should pay attention to PLTs promoting inflammatory progression, as well as screening for venous thromboembolism risk and prophylactic anti-venous thromboembolism therapy at the time of dosing to avoid adverse effects.

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
The elevated risk of thromboembolism (TE) in association with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is well-established in literature. Herein, we present a case of a 70-year-old patient with steroid-dependent ulcerative colitis who presented with exertional dyspnea and abdominal pain. Investigations revealed extensive bilateral iliac and renal and caval venous thrombosis as well as pulmonary emboli. In addition to the rarity of such a finding in this location, this case serves to remind clinicians of the elevated risk of TE in those with IBD, even among those with IBD that has been in remission, especially in those presenting with unexplained abdominal pain and/or renal injury. TE can be life-threatening and requires a high index of clinical suspicion to establish early diagnosis and prevent propagation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is limited and conflicting data available regarding the cardiovascular disease outcomes associated with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). OBJECTIVE We aim to perform a systematic review to evaluate the cardiovascular outcomes and mortality associated with IBD patients. METHODS A systematic literature search has been performed on PubMed, Embase, Cochrane, and Scopus from inception till May 2022 without any language restrictions. RESULTS A total of 2,029,941 patients were included in the analysis from 16 studies. The mean age of the patients was 45.6 years. More females were found compared with males (57% vs 43%). The most common risk factors for cardiovascular disease (CVD) included smoking (24.19%) and alcohol (4.60%). The most common comorbidities includes hypertension (30%), diabetes mellitus (14.41%), dyslipidemia (18.42%), previous CVD (22%), and renal disease (10%). Among outcomes, all-cause mortality among IBD patients was 1.66%; ulcerative colitis (UC): 15.92%; and Crohn disease (CD): 0.30%. Myocardial Infarction (MI) among IBD patients were 1.47%, UC: 30.96%; and CD: 34.14%. CVD events among IBD patients were 1.95%. Heart failure events among IBD patients were 5.49%, stroke events among IBD patients were 0.95%, UC: 2.63%, and CD: 2.41%, respectively. CONCLUSION IBD patients are at higher risk for adverse cardiovascular outcomes, especially in women. Although there remains a lack of concrete treatment algorithms and assessment parameters that better characterize IBD risk factors, nutritional modifications and physical activity should be at the forefront of CVD prevention in IBD.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) may be associated with several extraintestinal comorbidities, including cardiovascular disease (CVD). Chronic inflammation is recognized as an important factor in atherogenesis, thrombosis, and myocarditis. AREAS COVERED IBD patients may be at increased risk for developing early atherosclerosis, cardiovascular events, peripheral artery disease, venous thromboembolism, myocarditis, and arrhythmias. Anti-tumor necrosis factor agents and thiopurines have been shown to have a protective effect against acute arterial events, but more research is needed. However, an increased risk of venous thromboembolism and major cardiovascular events has been described with the use of Janus kinase inhibitors. EXPERT OPINION CVD risk is slightly increased in patients with IBD, especially during flares. Thromboprophylaxis is strongly recommended in hospitalized patients with active disease as the benefit of anticoagulation outweighs the risk of bleeding. The pathogenetic relationship between CVD and IBD and the impact of IBD drugs on CVD outcomes are not fully elucidated. CVD risk doesn't have the strength to drive a specific IBD treatment. However, proper CVD risk profiling should always be done and the best strategy to manage CVD risk in IBD patients is to combine appropriate thromboprophylaxis with early and durable remission of the underlying IBD.

Abstract
Crohn's disease affects many women of childbearing age. Fecundity rates are often lower than in the general population due to reduced fertility during active inflammation, effects of pelvic surgery or voluntary childlessness. Many women have concerns regarding the effects of pregnancy on their Crohn's, any potential effect of medication on the fetus, and passing on Crohn's disease to the offspring. International guidelines on reproduction for women with Crohn's disease provide evidence-based advice to patients and health care professionals. There is an increasing literature on the safety of advanced medication for Crohn's disease during pregnancy. This review article therefore focuses on obstetric considerations beyond medication safety. We provide information on fertility, factors affecting pregnancy and fetal outcomes, obstetric complications, factors influencing mode of delivery, management of intestinal stomas during pregnancy and general considerations around breast feeding.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW As the incidence of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) rises, gastroenterologists are more commonly facing management of the disease in women of childbearing age. This coincides with the development of new IBD therapies whose use in pregnancy must be considered. RECENT FINDINGS This review provides updated recommendations for newer biologic agents and small molecules that have been approved for IBD treatment since the previous guidelines were published. In addition, recent research has found that prior IBD-related surgeries, not just ileal pouch-anal anastomosis, can impact pregnancy outcomes. Reassuringly, assisted reproductive technology for IBD patients has been found to have similar success rates to the non-IBD population. Ensuring disease remission prior to conception and throughout pregnancy is key for optimizing pregnancy and fetal outcomes. As gastroenterologists play an integral role in the management of IBD throughout the peripartum period, this review summarizes recent studies in combination with existing guidelines to address preconception counseling, medication safety, and management for quiescent and active disease throughout pregnancy.

Abstract
Paediatric central venous sinus thrombosis (CVST) is an uncommon but important life-threatening complication of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). As the incidence of IBD has increased in the last four decades, paediatricians need to be aware of this complication. There is currently no consensus on when children with IBD should receive prophylactic anticoagulation. We present the case of a young girl with ulcerative colitis who suffered an acute ischaemic event secondary to a CVST during an acute flare of her disease. We aim to bring awareness to CVST in IBD due to its high risk of morbidity and mortality.

BACKGROUND Cancer patients treated with immune check point inhibitors are at risk of developing severe colitis. However, the efficacy and safety of treatment of severe colitis is poorly understood. AIMS To explore the safety and efficacy of infliximab and corticosteroids in severe immune-mediated enterocolitis (IMC) METHOD: We performed a nationwide retrospective cohort study on 140 cancer patients treated with infliximab due to IMC in Denmark from 2011 to 2021. RESULTS The rate of complete remission with infliximab was 52% after one dose, increasing to 73% after two or more doses. Thirteen patients (10%) required additional treatment with vedolizumab. Patients were heavily exposed to corticosteroids and received a median accumulated dose of 3978 mg (interquartile range [IQR] 2552-6414). Age- and cancer-adjusted Cox regression analysis found that a high dose of prednisolone at start of tapering ≥75 mg/day was associated with increased mortality (HR 1.67, 1.04-2.69, p = 0.035). Patients responding to infliximab experienced an improvement of symptoms after 3 days (IQR 2-4) and complete remission after 31 days (IQR 14-61). Twenty-four percent required hospitalisation for infection during treatment for IMC, lasting 7 days (median). Secondary gastrointestinal infections occurred in 16%, with Clostridioides difficile being most common (64%). Further, 10% had a thromboembolic event during the first 90 days after infliximab treatment. CONCLUSIONS Infliximab led to complete resolution of symptoms in 73% of patients with IMC. High prednisolone dose at tapering was associated with increased mortality rate and a high incidence of infections and hospitalisations in patients with severe IMC. We suggest optimised infliximab treatment before escalation of steroid doses.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality among patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). However, data on national trends remain limited. AIMS To assess national trends in VTE-associated hospitalisations among patients with IBD as well as risk factors for, and mortality associated with, these events METHODS: Using the U.S. Nationwide Inpatient Sample from 2000-2018, temporal trends in VTE were assessed using the National Cancer Institute's Joinpoint Regression Program with estimates presented as the average annual percent change (AAPC) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs). RESULTS Between 2000 and 2018, there were 4,859,728 hospitalisations among patients with IBD, with 128,236 (2.6%) having a VTE, and 6352 associated deaths. The rate of VTE among hospitalised patients with IBD increased from 192 to 295 cases per 10,000 hospitalisations (AAPC 2.4%, 95%CI 1.4%, 3.4%, p < 0.001), and remained significant when stratified by ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease as well as by deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism. On multivariable analysis, increasing age, male sex, UC (aOR: 1.30, 95%CI 1.26, 1.33), identifying as non-Hispanic Black, and chronic corticosteroid use (aOR: 1.22, 95%CI 1.16, 1.29) were associated with an increased risk of a VTE-associated hospitalisation. CONCLUSION Rates of VTE-associated hospitalisations are increasing among patients with IBD. Continued efforts need to be placed on education and risk reduction.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a chronic inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) that prevails mainly in western countries. Due to the unknown etiology of UC, the purpose of treatments has predominantly comprised symptomatic and pain relief. With extensive research focusing on the pathogenesis of UC, various novel treatments have emerged, although their efficiency has remained unsatisfactory. Hedysarum multijugum Maxim (HMM), a crucial constituent of traditional Chinese medicine, has a broad application in many diseases and has been found beneficial for UC patients. METHODS In this study, network pharmacology and molecular docking analyses were applied to explore the potential mechanism of HMM treating UC. Active ingredients of HMM and target genes were acquired from the Traditional Chinese Medicine Systems Pharmacology Database and Analysis Platform (TCMSP). UC-related genes were obtained from three disease databases. Common genes were selected from these two gene sets, and a compound-genes network was drawn by Cytoscape. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG), Gene Ontology (GO) enrichment, and protein-protein interaction (PPI) analyses were performed to identify the essential pathways and proteins in UC. RESULTS A total of 121 genes were found related to UC and targeted by HMM. The GO and KEGG analyses showed that these genes were associated with inflammation and immune signaling pathways and inflammation-related biological processes (BP) such as the tumor necrosis factor (TNF) and PI3K-AKT signaling pathways. Four active ingredients (quercetin, kaempferol, formononetin, and isorhamnetin) and five genes (RELA, MAPK14, MAPK1, JUN, AKT1) were reserved after screening. Molecular docking further showed that the receptor had a high binding affinity with HMM active ingredients. CONCLUSIONS This study revealed that HMM treats UC through four active ingredients (quercetin, kaempferol, formononetin, and isorhamnetin) targeting five hub genes (RELA, MAPK14, MAPK1, JUN, AKT1) by regulating the PI3K-AKT1 and TNF signaling pathways.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis are chronic inflammatory disorders of the intestines. The underlying inflammation activates the coagulation cascade leading to an increased risk of developing arterial and venous thromboembolic events such as deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism. Patients with IBD are at a 2–3-fold increased risk of developing thromboembolism. This risk increases in patients with active IBD disease, flare-ups, surgery, steroid treatment, and hospitalization. These complications are associated with significant morbidity and mortality making them important in clinical practice. Clinicians should consider the increased risk of thromboembolic events in patients with IBD and manage them with appropriate prophylaxis based on the risk. In this review, we discuss the literature associated with the pathophysiology of thromboembolism in patients with IBD, summarize the studies describing the various thromboembolic events, and the management of thromboembolism in patients with IBD.

Abstract
Objective We set out to determine the rate of pharmacological venous thromboembolism (VTE) prophylaxis among patients admitted with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and indirectly compare it to national trends. We also assessed the demographic and clinical correlates for non-prescription of pharmacologic VTE prophylaxis among IBD patients with and without a flare. Methods We extracted data from 123 patients admitted to our facility with IBD from September 2018 to August 2020 retrospectively. Out of this cohort, 26 patients were excluded and 96 were included in our analysis. Baseline characteristics were analyzed using descriptive statistics. Multiple logistic regression was used to evaluate the correlates of pharmacological VTE prophylaxis use in individuals with IBD and to analyze the predictors of VTE prophylaxis use in patients with IBD flares. Results Out of the 96 patients with IBD included in this study, 61 (63.5%) presented with an IBD flare, and among those with a flare, 26/61 (42.6%) received VTE prophylaxis. IBD patients aged ≥ 65 years and of Black race were less likely to be placed on pharmacological VTE prophylaxis (adjusted odds ratio (AOR) 0.20, 95% CI (0.06 - 0.70), p-value 0.012) and (AOR 0.16, 95% CI (0.05 - 0.50), p-value 0.002) respectively. Among those with a flare, the presence of bright red bleeding per rectum was associated with a low rate of pharmacologic VTE use (AOR 0.01, 95% CI (0.00 -1.78), p-value 0.001). Overall the rate of VTE prophylaxis use in the IBD patient cohort was 56.3% and this was irrespective of flare status. Conclusion Our study showed the low rate of pharmacologic VTE prophylaxis use in IBD patients at this center and this finding was in line with national trends. Interestingly age and the race of patients played a major role in the decision to provide pharmacological VTE prophylaxis but the reason for this finding was not explored by our study. A larger multi-center study is needed to further evaluate these relationships.

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
Environmental and lifestyle factors play an important role in the natural history of Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. A group of international experts from the International Organization for the Study of Inflammatory Bowel Diseases voted on a series of consensus statements to inform the management of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). The recommendations include avoiding traditional cigarette smoking in patients with Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis, screening for symptoms of depression, anxiety, and psychosocial stressors at diagnosis and during flares (with referral to mental health professionals when appropriate), and encouraging regular physical activity as tolerated. Patients using dietary approaches for treatment of their IBD should be encouraged to adopt diets that are best supported by evidence and involve monitoring for the objective resolution of inflammation. We recommend formal assessment for obesity and nutritional deficiencies, and patients should be encouraged to maintain a normal body-mass index. A shared decision-making approach to contraception should include the consideration of IBD-related factors, and risk factors for venous thromboembolism. Long-term or frequent use of high-dose non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs should be avoided. For primary prevention of disease in the offspring of patients with IBD, we recommend avoiding passive exposure to tobacco, using antibiotics judiciously, and considering breastfeeding when able.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), comprising of ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CrD), is a chronic relapsing-remitting inflammation of the bowel with extraintestinal involvement. Numerous studies published in the last decade have underlined the dangerous cardiovascular disease (CVD) outcomes of IBD, such as ischemic heart disease, heart failure, and stroke, and the need for better therapeutic and prognostic strategies. This article elucidated the pathological web of mechanisms that link IBD with CVD, such as immune dysregulation, endothelial dysfunction, arterial stiffness, and dysbiosis, with a comprehensive review of clinical studies standing for and against the notion in pediatric and adult populations. The current treatment and prevention aim at disease remission and dietary strategies shown to reduce the CVD risk. Exploration of other supplemental preventive and treatment methods, especially during active flares of disease, to reduce the risk of arterial thromboembolic disease (ATED) is the need of the hour.

Abstract
Patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) present a higher risk of developing cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) due to chronic inflammation, which plays an essential role in atherogenesis. Hyperlipidemia is another risk factor for CVDs; however, the association between IBD, IBD medications, and hyperlipidemia remains controversial. We conducted a nationwide, population-based, retrospective, cohort study to examine the effect of IBD and IBD medications on the risk of developing hyperlipidemia. The effects of IBD medications on the expression of lipogenesis-related hepatic genes were also evaluated. We obtained data from the Longitudinal Health Insurance Database of Taiwan from patients with new-onset IBD and a comparison cohort of patients without IBD. A Cox proportional hazards regression model was used to analyze the difference in the risk of developing hyperlipidemia between the two cohorts. We also examined the influence of IBD medications on the expression of lipogenesis-related hepatic genes. After adjusting for comorbidities and confounding factors, the case group (N = 14,524) had a higher risk for hyperlipidemia than the control group (N = 14,524) [adjusted hazards ratio (aHR), 2.18]. Patients with IBD that did not receive IBD medications exhibited a significantly higher risk of hyperlipidemia (aHR, 2.20). In those treated with IBD medications, the risk of developing hyperlipidemia was significantly lowered than those without such medications (all aHR ≤ 0.45). Gene expression analysis indicated that IBD medications downregulated the expression of lipogenesis-related genes. Screening blood lipids in IBD patients is needed to explore the specific role and impact of IBD medications in the development of CVD.

Abstract
The number of patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) has increased remarkably in recent years. However, the level of health care for IBD patients varies greatly among regions of China. Standardization of health care for IBD patients is essential to improve quality of care (QoC). The mission of the IBD Quality Care Evaluation Center (IBDQCC) is to establish indicators for QoC. Since 2017, the IBDQCC has developed structure, process, and outcome indicators with the steering committee of IBD specialists and methodologists; 28 core and 13 secondary IBD QoC indicators were selected using a Delphi method. Applications for certification of IBD quality care units were made voluntarily and preliminarily screened through the IBDQCC committee. Regional units had to meet all core indicators, and units of excellence were required to meet all core indicators together with an additional 50% of secondary indicators. As of 2019 and 2020, 69 IBD units (all from tertiary referral hospitals) have been certified as regional IBD units in China. The certification of excellence of the IBD units is currently undergoing auditing. The awareness of and appreciation for QoC in IBD is increasing in China, especially through the quality control evaluation program initiated by the IBDQCC, with a higher number of IBD units applying for the next round of certification. Although secondary indicators seem to play relatively minor roles in QoC, they suggest additional requirements for high-level centers.

Surgery and the Subtype of Inflammatory Bowel Disease Impact the Risk of Venous Thromboembolism After Hospital Discharge. Dig Dis Sci 2022; 67:2471-2479.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Surgery for inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is associated with an increased risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE) during hospitalization. It is unclear whether this association persists after hospital discharge. AIMS We assessed the association between surgery and VTE following hospital discharge in IBD. METHODS We conducted a population-based cohort study between 2002 and 2016 in Ontario, Canada. Adults with IBD hospitalized for ≥ 72 h who underwent an intra-abdominal surgery were compared to hospitalized, nonsurgical IBD patients. Multivariable Cox proportional hazard models were used to compare VTE risk within 12 months of discharge. RESULTS A total of 80,445 hospital discharges were analyzed: 60% Crohn's disease (CD) and 40% ulcerative colitis (UC). The median time to VTE was three times longer for nonsurgical patients with CD and 1.6 times longer for nonsurgical patients with UC. Compared with nonsurgical patients, surgery for CD was associated with a lower cumulative risk of VTE in the 2 weeks after discharge and persisted through to 12 months after discharge (adjusted HR 0.24; 95% CI 0.15-0.40). In contrast, urgent surgery for UC was associated with an increased risk of VTE. The increased risk was greatest at 2 weeks after discharge (aHR, 1.80; 95% CI 1.26-2.57) and declined progressively over the course of 12 months. CONCLUSIONS Surgery was associated with a greater risk of VTE after hospital discharge in UC but not CD. In patients with UC who have undergone urgent surgery, healthcare providers should consider an extended period of prophylaxis after hospital discharge.

Abstract
Pediatric Crohn's disease is often more severe, requires higher levels of immunosuppression, and is associated with greater morbidity compared with adult Crohn's disease. Unique considerations in pediatric Crohn's disease include growth impairment, pubertal delay, bone disease, longevity of disease burden, and psychosocial impact. Treatment options are limited, requiring off-label use of therapy in this challenging patient population. Understanding the medications available, the existing evidence supporting their use, and side effects is important. There is tremendous potential for growth and improvement in this field and it is essential that all gastroenterologists have an understanding of this complex and unique patient population.

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
INTRODUCTION Chronic gastrointestinal disorders (including autoimmune gastritis, celiac disease, inflammatory bowel disease, and diverticular disease) are highly prevalent disorders, that may be associated with unpredictable, life-threatening complications, such as thromboembolic events. Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is one of the major causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Several conditions, including cancer, major trauma, surgery, prolonged immobilization, are well-established risk factors for VTE. Over the past decade, chronic inflammation has also been identified as an independent risk factor for VTE due to the prothrombotic effects of inflammatory cytokines and oxidative stress on the coagulation cascade. Other several mechanisms were shown to be associated with a higher incidence of VTE in patients with gastrointestinal disorders. AREAS COVERED We critically discuss the latest insights into the mechanisms responsible for thromboembolic manifestations in chronic gastrointestinal disorders, also focusing on the recognition of risk factors and treatment. EXPERT OPINION The occurrence of thrombotic complications is underestimated in patients with chronic gastrointestinal disorders. Identifying potential risk factors and concomitant predisposing conditions and to prevent VTE and guide treatment require a multidisciplinary approach, and this is critically important for clinicians, in order to provide the best care for such patients.
