Abstract
BACKGROUND Fracture risks and associated factors are poorly understood in middle-aged and older Asian populations with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Therefore, we investigated fracture risk and the effects of comorbidities and lifestyle habits on the risk of developing fractures in middle-aged and older Korean patients with IBD. METHODS We conducted a nationwide population-based cohort study using data from the National Health Insurance Corporation Database. Patients with IBD who underwent the National Screening Program and were over 40 years of age were included in the study. We compared patients with age- and sex-matched controls. The incidence of fractures, including vertebral, hip, and other sites, was determined using claims data. RESULTS The risk of total fractures and vertebral fractures was significantly higher in the IBD group (adjusted hazard ratio [HR], 1.31, 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.16-1.48; adjusted HR, 1.59, 95% CI, 1.33-1.92, respectively). Obesity, diabetes, hypertension, and lack of exercise were associated with increased fracture risk in patients with ulcerative colitis (UC). In contrast, the risk increases in patients with Crohn's disease regardless of comorbidities and lifestyle preferences. CONCLUSION The risk of bone fracture, especially vertebral fracture, is high in middle-aged and older Korean patients with IBD. Obesity, diabetes, hypertension, and lack of exercise are all risk factors associated with bone fractures in patients with UC. These findings are helpful for clinicians to educate patients with IBD on bone health and raise awareness of bone fractures in patients with UC who have specific risk factors.

Long-term Risk of Stroke in Patients With Inflammatory Bowel Disease: A Population-Based, Sibling-Controlled Cohort Study, 1969-2019. Neurology 2023; 101:e653-e664. [PMID: 37316347 PMCID: PMC10424828 DOI: 10.1212/wnl.0000000000207480] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/20/2022] [Accepted: 04/18/2023] [Indexed: 06/16/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are at an increased risk of thromboembolic events, but evidence on the long-term risk of stroke remains scarce. We aimed to explore whether patients with a biopsy-confirmed IBD had an increased long-term risk of stroke. METHODS This cohort included all patients with biopsy-confirmed IBD in Sweden between 1969 and 2019 and up to 5 matched reference individuals per patient who were randomly selected from the general population and IBD-free full siblings. The primary outcome was incident overall stroke; secondary outcomes were ischemic and hemorrhagic strokes. Stroke was identified from the Swedish National Patient Register by using both primary and secondary diagnoses. Adjusted hazard ratios (aHRs) for stroke were estimated by flexible parametric survival models. RESULTS A total of 85,006 patients with IBD (including Crohn disease [CD, n = 25,257], ulcerative colitis [UC, n = 47,354], and IBD-unclassified [IBD-U, n = 12,395]), 406,987 matched reference individuals, and 101,082 IBD-free full siblings were included in the analysis. We observed 3,720 incident strokes in patients with IBD (incidence rate [IR] 32.6 per 10,000 person-years) and 15,599 in reference individuals (IR 27.7; aHR 1.13, 95% CI 1.08-1.17). The elevated aHR remained increased even 25 years after diagnosis, corresponding to 1 additional stroke case per 93 patients with IBD until then. The excess aHR was mainly driven by ischemic stroke (aHR 1.14; 1.09-1.18) rather than hemorrhagic stroke (aHR 1.06; 0.97-1.15). The risk of ischemic stroke was significantly increased across IBD subtypes (CD [IR 23.3 vs 19.2; aHR 1.19; 1.10-1.29], UC [IR 25.7 vs 22.6; aHR 1.09; 1.04-1.16], and IBD-U [IR 30.5 vs 22.8; aHR 1.22; 1.08-1.37]). Similar results were found when patients with IBD were compared with their siblings. DISCUSSION Patients with IBD were at an increased risk of stroke, especially of ischemic events, irrespective of the IBD subtype. The excess risk persisted even 25 years after diagnosis. These findings highlight the need for clinical vigilance about the long-term excess risk of cerebrovascular events in patients with IBD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The risk of vertebral fractures is increased in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients. However, whether the severity of vertebral fractures differs between IBD patients and the general population, or between patients with Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC), is unknown. METHODS We investigated risk factors associated with the occurrence and severity of vertebral fractures in IBD patients using The National Healthcare Insurance Service (NHIS) database. We defined the patients who underwent vertebroplasty or kyphoplasty after being diagnosed with a vertebral fracture as having a severe vertebral fracture than those with only diagnosis codes. RESULTS From 2008 to 2018, there were 33,778 patients with IBD (24,370 UC patients and 9,408 CD patients) and 101,265 patients in the reference population. The incidence rate ratio of vertebral fractures in the IBD patients was 1.27 per 1,000 person-years (95% confidence interval [CI], 1.26-1.27). The risk of vertebral fracture was higher in CD and UC patients than in the matched reference group (hazard ratio [HR], 1.59; 95% CI, 1.31-1.92; P < 0.001 and HR, 1.26; 95% CI, 1.14-1.41; P < 0.001, respectively). In a multivariate analysis, the occurrence of vertebral fracture was associated with CD (HR, 1.31; 95% CI, 1.08-1.59; P = 0.006), older age (CD: HR, 1.09; 95% CI, 1.08-1.09; P < 0.001 and UC: HR, 1.09; 95% CI, 1.08-1.09; P < 0.001), female sex (CD: HR, 1.81; 95% CI, 1.63-2.01; P < 0.001 and UC: HR, 2.02; 95% CI, 1.83-2.22; P < 0.001), high Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) score (CD: HR, 1.42; 95% CI, 1.23-1.63; P < 0.001 and UC: HR, 1.46; 95% CI, 1.29-1.65, P < 0.001), and long-term steroid use (CD: HR, 3.71; 95% CI, 2.84-3.37; P < 0.001 and UC: HR, 3.88; 95% CI, 3.07-4.91; P < 0.001). The severity of vertebral fractures was associated with IBD (CD: HR, 1.82; 95% CI, 1.17-2.83; P = 0.008 and UC: HR, 1.49; 95% CI, 1.17-1.89; P < 0.001) and older age (HR, 1.06; 95% CI, 1.05-1.07; P < 0.001). CONCLUSION Vertebral fractures occur frequently and more severely in IBD patients, particularly those with CD. Therefore, we suggest monitoring of bone density, regular vitamin D supply, and reducing the use of corticosteroids to prevent vertebral fractures in IBD patients who are older, female, or have comorbidities.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic disease characterized by the presence of systemic inflammation, manifesting not only as gastrointestinal symptoms but also as extraintestinal bone complications, including osteopenia and osteoporosis. However, the association between IBD and osteoporosis is complex, and the presence of multifactorial participants in the development of osteoporosis is increasingly recognized. Unlike in adults, delayed puberty and growth hormone/insulin-like growth factor-1 axis abnormalities are essential risk factors for osteoporosis in pediatric patients with IBD. AREAS COVERED This article reviews the potential pathophysiological mechanisms contributing to osteoporosis in adult and pediatric patients with IBD and provides evidence for effective prevention and treatment, focusing on pediatric patients with IBD. A search was performed from PubMed and Web of Science inception to February 2023 to identify articles on IBD, osteoporosis, pediatric, and fracture risk. EXPERT OPINION A comprehensive treatment pattern based on individualized principles can be used to manage pediatric IBD-related osteoporosis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Bone loss is a common morbidity in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Bone mineral density (BMD) measurement is recommended for IBD patients at a high risk of osteoporosis. However, there is a lack of evidence in the need of BMD measurement in patients who are young at the first disease onset. In this study we aimed to investigate the prevalence of low BMD in patients with newly diagnosed Crohn's disease (CD) at 20-50 years of age and the potential risk factors. METHODS A single-center, retrospective cross-sectional study was conducted. Medical records of the patients were reviewed and their demographics, clinical characteristics and laboratory test results were collected. Dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) scan was performed for BMD measurements; low BMD was defined as Z-score or T-score <-1.0 standard deviation (SD). Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to determine the risk factors for low BMD. RESULTS A total of 221 patients with CD were included; osteopenia and osteoporosis were identified in 23.1% and 8.6%, and 39.4% and 7.2% of the patients using Z-score and T-score, respectively. Female gender and a higher BMI at diagnosis were protective factors for low BMD. CONCLUSIONS Low BMD is common in patients with newly diagnosed CD aged 20-50 years. Female gender and a higher BMI at diagnosis might protect CD patients from bone loss. Therefore, BMD measurement and early intervention with calcium and vitamin D are recommended for these patients.

Abstract
Systematic bone loss is commonly complicated with inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs) with unclear pathogenesis and uncertain treatment. In experimental colitis mouse models established by dextran sulfate sodium and IL-10 knockout induced with piroxicam, bone mass and quality are significantly decreased. Colitis mice demonstrate a lower bone formation rate and fewer osteoblasts in femur. Bone marrow mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (BMSCs) from colitis mice tend to differentiate into adipocytes rather than osteoblasts. Serum from patients with IBD promotes adipogenesis of human BMSCs. RNA sequencing reveals that colitis downregulates Wnt signaling in BMSCs. For treatment, exosomes with Golgi glycoprotein 1 inserted could carry Wnt agonist 1 and accumulate in bone via intravenous administration. They could alleviate bone loss, promote bone formation, and accelerate fracture healing in colitis mice. Collectively, BMSC commitment in inflammatory microenvironment contributes to lower bone quantity and quality and could be rescued by redirecting differentiation toward osteoblasts through bone-targeted drug delivery.

Kochar B, Jylhävä J, Söderling J, Ritchie CS, Ludvigsson JF, Khalili H, Olén O. Prevalence and Implications of Frailty in Older Adults With Incident Inflammatory Bowel Diseases: A Nationwide Cohort Study. Clin Gastroenterol Hepatol 2022; 20:2358-2365.e11. [PMID: 34999206 PMCID: PMC9294971 DOI: 10.1016/j.cgh.2022.01.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 17] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/13/2021] [Revised: 12/20/2021] [Accepted: 01/02/2022] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS We aimed to compare the risk of frailty in older adults with incident inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and matched non-IBD comparators and assess the association between frailty and future hospitalizations and mortality. METHODS In a cohort of patients with incident IBD ≥60 years of age from 2007 to 2016 in Sweden identified using nationwide registers, we defined frailty using Hospital Frailty Risk Score. We compared prevalence of frailty in patients with IBD with age, sex, place of residency- and calendar year-matched population comparators. In the IBD cohort, we used Cox proportional hazards modeling to examine the associations between frailty risk and hospitalizations or mortality. RESULTS We identified 10,590 patients with IBD, 52% female with a mean age of 71 years of age, matched to 103,398 population-based comparators. Among patients with IBD, 39% had no risk for frailty, 49% had low risk for frailty, and 12% had higher risk for frailty. Mean Hospital Frailty Risk Score was 1.9 in IBD and 0.9 in matched comparators (P < .01). Older adults with IBD at higher risk for frailty had a 20% greater risk for mortality at 3 years compared with those who were not frail. Compared with nonfrail older patients with IBD, patients at higher risk for frailty had increased mortality (hazard ratio [HR], 3.22, 95% confidence interval [CI], 2.86-3.61), all-cause hospitalization (HR, 2.42; 95% CI, 2.24-2.61), and IBD-related hospitalization (HR, 1.50; 95% CI, 1.35-1.66). These associations were not attenuated after adjusting for comorbidities. CONCLUSIONS Frailty is more prevalent in older adults with IBD than in matched comparators. Among older patients with IBD, frailty is associated with increased risk for hospitalizations and mortality.

An Update on the Effects of Vitamin D on the Immune System and Autoimmune Diseases. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms23179784. [PMID: 36077185 PMCID: PMC9456003 DOI: 10.3390/ijms23179784] [Citation(s) in RCA: 57] [Impact Index Per Article: 28.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/23/2022] [Revised: 08/24/2022] [Accepted: 08/26/2022] [Indexed: 12/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Vitamin D intervenes in calcium and phosphate metabolism and bone homeostasis. Experimental studies have shown that 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (calcitriol) generates immunologic activities on the innate and adaptive immune system and endothelial membrane stability. Low levels of serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) are associated with an increased risk of developing immune-related diseases such as psoriasis, type 1 diabetes, multiple sclerosis, and autoimmune diseases. Various clinical trials describe the efficacy of supplementation of vitamin D and its metabolites for treating these diseases that result in variable outcomes. Different disease outcomes are observed in treatment with vitamin D as high inter-individual difference is present with complex gene expression in human peripheral blood mononuclear cells. However, it is still not fully known what level of serum 25(OH)D is needed. The current recommendation is to increase vitamin D intake and have enough sunlight exposure to have serum 25(OH)D at a level of 30 ng/mL (75 nmol/L) and better at 40–60 ng/mL (100–150 nmol/L) to obtain the optimal health benefits of vitamin D.

Identification of Childhood-Onset Inflammatory Bowel Disease in Swedish Healthcare Registers: A Validation Study. Clin Epidemiol 2022; 14:591-600. [PMID: 35520278 PMCID: PMC9063793 DOI: 10.2147/clep.s358031] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/12/2022] [Accepted: 04/05/2022] [Indexed: 12/18/2022] Open
Abstract
Purpose The Swedish National Patient Register (NPR) is often used in observational studies of childhood-onset inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) (<18 years of age) and its subtypes, but the validity of previously used register-based algorithms for capturing childhood-onset IBD has never been examined. Methods We identified a random sample of 233 individuals with at least two first ever diagnostic listings of IBD in the NPR between 2002 and 2014. We calculated the test characteristics for different register-based definitions of IBD and its subtypes using the Copenhagen criteria and the revised Porto criteria as gold standard, both based on medical chart review. We made assumptions of the occurrence of undiagnosed IBD in the general child population based on available literature. Results Out of 233 individuals with at least two diagnostic listings of IBD, 216 had true IBD, resulting in a positive predictive value (PPV) = 93% (95% confidence interval (CI) 89–96), sensitivity = 88% (95% CI 83–92), specificity = 100% (95% CI 100–100), and negative predictive value (NPV) = 100% (95% CI 100–100). The PPV for the NPR-based definitions of IBD subtypes at time of first IBD diagnosis and at end of follow-up were 78% (95% CI 69–86) and 88% (95% CI 80–94), respectively, for Crohn’s disease and 74% (95% CI 63–83) and 71% (95% CI 60–80), respectively, for ulcerative colitis. Conclusion The validity of register-based definitions of childhood-onset IBD in the Swedish NPR is high and can be used to identify patients in observational research.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS In this nationwide population-based study, we investigated the risk of vertebral and hip fractures in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). METHODS Using data from the Korean National Health Insurance claims database gathered between 2007 and 2016, we calculated the incidence rate ratios (IRRs) of vertebral and hip fractures in patients with newly diagnosed IBD (n = 18,228; 64.1% male, 65.9% ulcerative colitis) compared with an age- and sex-matched control population (matching ratio, 1:10; n = 186,871). RESULTS During a median follow-up period of 4.5 years, the incidence rate and IRR of vertebral and hip fractures in patients with IBD were 2.88 per 1000 person-years and 1.24 (95% CI, 1.08-1.42), respectively. The cumulative risk of vertebral and hip fractures in IBD patients was 0.6%, 1.4%, and 1.9% at 2, 5, and 7 years after diagnosis, respectively, and this risk of fracture in IBD patients was higher than that in matched controls (P = .002). The use of corticosteroids further increased the risk of fractures in IBD patients (IRR, 1.37; 95% CI, 1.13-1.65) compared with matched controls. The risk of fractures was significantly higher in patients with Crohn's disease (CD) (IRR, 1.56; 95% CI, 1.19-2.04) than in matched controls, and this risk remained higher in patients with CD without corticosteroid exposure (IRR, 1.62; 95% CI, 1.12-2.34). The risk of fracture increased with age and was particularly high in females and in those with comorbidities. CONCLUSIONS The risk of fractures was significantly high in newly diagnosed IBD patients, especially in those with CD regardless of corticosteroid exposure.

Risk Factors for Worsening of Bone Loss in Patients Newly Diagnosed with Inflammatory Bowel Disease. Gastroenterol Res Pract 2022; 2022:1498293. [PMID: 35419052 PMCID: PMC9001094 DOI: 10.1155/2022/1498293] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/03/2021] [Accepted: 02/23/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Background. Bone loss is common in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). The aim of the present study was to determine the prevalence of metabolic bone disease in patients newly diagnosed with IBD and to identify the risk factors for bone loss over time. Methods. We performed a retrospective, both cross-sectional and longitudinal, study to extract the risk factors of bone loss (including osteopenia and osteoporosis) in patients newly diagnosed with IBD, using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA). Results. A total of 639 patients newly diagnosed with IBD that had at least one DXA were included in the cross-sectional study. Osteopenia and osteoporosis were diagnosed in 24.6% and 5.4% of patients, respectively. Age at diagnosis, body mass index, and serum phosphorus were identified as independent factors associated with bone loss at baseline. A total of 380 of the 639 IBD patients (including 212 CD patients and 168 UC patients) with at least a second DXA scan were included in the longitudinal study. 42.6% of the patients presented a worsening of bone loss in the follow-up study. Menopause, albumin, and use of corticosteroids were identified as independent factors associated with worsening of bone loss. Conclusions. Metabolic bone disease is common in IBD patients, and there is a significant increase in prevalence of bone loss over time. Postmenopausal female, malnourished patients, and those requiring corticosteroid treatment are at risk for persistent bone loss. Therefore, BMD measurements and early intervention with supplementation of calcium and vitamin D are recommended in IBD patients with high-risk factors.

Abstract
Inflammation is among the major determinants of bone loss in chronic disease and aging. Bone metabolism is radically affected by inflammation with consequent bone loss and increased fracture risk. Various cytokines and mediators are involved in the pathogenesis of bone loss in inflammatory conditions. The present review has the aim of discussing the main pathways involved in the pathogenesis of bone loss in inflammatory diseases, focusing in particular on the Wnt system and its regulators. Literature review of studies published between inception to 2021 on osteoporosis and inflammation was conducted. I will discuss the epidemiology of osteoporosis and fractures in common inflammatory diseases. The molecular basis of bone loss related to inflammation will be discussed as well. Finally, the effects of various anti-inflammatory medications on bone metabolism will be reviewed.

Abstract
Background Vitamin D is classified as an immunomodulatory hormone that is synthesized because of skin exposure to sunlight. It is known to come into play during the regulation of hormone secretion, immune functions, cell proliferation, and differentiation. Its deficiency can cause many diseases and their associated pleiotropic effects. In addition, in relation to its eminent function as regards adaptive immune response and innate immune response, vitamin D level is associated with immune tolerance. Methods Literature search prior to May 2021 was conducted through selected websites, including the MEDLINE, Embase, Web of Science, Cochrane Central, www.ClinicalTrials.gov, PubMed, Science Direct, Google Scholar, and EFSA. Results Vitamin D is found effective for the regulation of hormone secretion, immune functions, and cell proliferation along with differentiation. Its role as an immune modulator is based on the presence of receptors on many immune cells and the synthesis of its active metabolite from these cells. Vitamin D, an immune system modulator, inhibits cell proliferation and stimulates cell differentiation. A fair number of immune system diseases, encompassing autoimmune disorders alongside infectious diseases, can occur because of low serum vitamin D levels. Supplementation of vitamin D has positive effects in lessening the severity nature of disease activity; there exists no consensus on the dose to be used. Conclusion It is figured out that a higher number of randomized controlled trials are essential to evaluate efficacy pertaining to clinical cases, treatment duration, type, and dose of supplementation and pathophysiology of diseases, immune system functioning, and the effect of vitamin D to be administered.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) is an emerging, chronic immune-mediated disease for which swallowed topical steroids and proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) represent first-line treatments. Immune-mediated diseases, steroids, and PPI use have been linked to osteoporosis. We assessed the risk of fractures in patients with EoE and determined whether the most commonly used treatments for EoE were associated with increased fracture risk. METHODS We followed a nationwide cohort of 1263 individuals in Sweden with biopsy-verified EoE diagnosed between 2005 and 2016 for first-time fracture of any type. Age- and sex-matched reference individuals were retrieved from the Total Population Register (n = 5164). We estimated hazard ratios (HRs) for fracture in relation to EoE diagnosis, steroid exposure, and PPI use. In a separate analysis, we compared fracture risk among individuals with EoE to their siblings (n = 1394). RESULTS During 4521 person-years of follow-up, 69 individuals with EoE experienced a first-time fracture (15.3/1000 person-years) compared with 234 reference individuals (12.6/1000 person-years). After adjusting for age, sex, birth year, and county of residence, EoE was not associated with a statistically significantly increased risk of fractures (HR = 1.2, 95% CI = 0.9-1.6). Among EoE individuals, exposure to PPIs and swallowed steroids did not modify the risk of fracture (p for heterogeneity 0.20 and 0.07 respectively). There was no increased risk of fractures in EoE compared to EoE-free siblings. CONCLUSION The risk of fracture in EoE was not statistically significantly elevated compared to non-EoE reference individuals. Fracture risk in EoE was not modified by PPIs or steroid use.

Prevention and Treatment of Glucocorticoid-Induced Osteoporosis in Adults: Consensus Recommendations From the Belgian Bone Club. Front Endocrinol (Lausanne) 2022; 13:908727. [PMID: 35757436 PMCID: PMC9219603 DOI: 10.3389/fendo.2022.908727] [Citation(s) in RCA: 27] [Impact Index Per Article: 13.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/30/2022] [Accepted: 05/02/2022] [Indexed: 01/13/2023] Open
Abstract
Glucocorticoids are effective immunomodulatory drugs used for many inflammatory disorders as well as in transplant recipients. However, both iatrogenic and endogenous glucocorticoid excess are also associated with several side effects including an increased risk of osteoporosis and fractures. Glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis (GIOP) is a common secondary cause of osteoporosis in adults. Despite availability of clear evidence and international guidelines for the prevention of GIOP, a large treatment gap remains. In this narrative review, the Belgian Bone Club (BBC) updates its 2006 consensus recommendations for the prevention and treatment of GIOP in adults. The pathophysiology of GIOP is multifactorial. The BBC strongly advises non-pharmacological measures including physical exercise, smoking cessation and avoidance of alcohol abuse in all adults at risk for osteoporosis. Glucocorticoids are associated with impaired intestinal calcium absorption; the BBC therefore strongly recommend sufficient calcium intake and avoidance of vitamin D deficiency. We recommend assessment of fracture risk, taking age, sex, menopausal status, prior fractures, glucocorticoid dose, other clinical risk factors and bone mineral density into account. Placebo-controlled randomized controlled trials have demonstrated the efficacy of alendronate, risedronate, zoledronate, denosumab and teriparatide in GIOP. We suggest monitoring by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and vertebral fracture identification one year after glucocorticoid initiation. The trabecular bone score might be considered during DXA monitoring. Extended femur scans might be considered at the time of DXA imaging in glucocorticoid users on long-term (≥ 3 years) antiresorptive therapy. Bone turnover markers may be considered for monitoring treatment with anti-resorptive or osteoanabolic drugs in GIOP. Although the pathophysiology of solid organ and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation-induced osteoporosis extends beyond GIOP alone, the BBC recommends similar evaluation, prevention, treatment and follow-up principles in these patients. Efforts to close the treatment gap in GIOP and implement available effective fracture prevention strategies into clinical practice in primary, secondary and tertiary care are urgently needed.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF THE REVIEW Patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) have increased bone fragility, demonstrated by increased fracture risk, and often have low bone density and altered bone geometry, but the underlying pathophysiology remains poorly understood. RECENT FINDINGS Children and adolescents with IBD appear to have decreased bone formation, at diagnosis, which frequently improves with treatment of their underlying IBD. There is a growing body of evidence regarding how the immune system interacts with bone metabolism. There are likely multi-factorial etiologies that contribute to suboptimal bone accrual and subsequent lack of peak bone mass attainment in growing patients with IBD. There appears to be differential effects dependent upon IBD sub-type and bone compartment. Pediatric patients with IBD require recognition of several risk factors that may adversely impact their bone accrual. Future studies are necessary to further delineate the effects of IBD on pediatric bone health.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) have a higher risk of hip fracture, but lower likelihood of having arthroplasties than non-IBD patients in Nationwide Inpatient Sample. Little is known about hip fracture-associated hospitalization outcomes. AIMS We assessed the trends in hip fracture hospitalization rates from 2000 to 2017 and estimated 30-day readmission, 30-day mortality, and length of stay in 2016 and 2017. METHODS We estimated trends of age-adjusted hospitalization rates using a piecewise linear regression. Medicare beneficiaries aged ≥ 66 years with Crohn's disease (CD, n = 2014) or ulcerative colitis (UC, n = 2971) hospitalized for hip fracture were identified. We performed propensity score matching to create 1:3 matched samples on age, race/ethnicity, sex, and chronic conditions and compared hospitalization outcomes between matched samples. RESULTS In 2017, the age-adjusted hospitalization rates (per 100) were 1.15 [95% CI = (1.07-1.24)] for CD, 0.86 [95% CI = (0.82-0.89)] for UC, and 0.59 [95% CI = (0.59-0.59)] for no IBD. The hospitalization rates for CD and UC decreased from 2000 to 2012 and then increased from 2012 to 2017. Compared to matched cohorts, CD patients had longer hospital stays (5.55 days vs. 5.30 days, p = 0.01); UC patients were more likely to have 30-day readmissions (17.27% vs. 13.71%, p < 0.001), longer hospital stays (5.59 days vs. 5.40 days, p = 0.02), and less likely to have 30-day mortality (3.77% vs. 5.15%, p = 0.003). CONCLUSIONS Prevention of hip fracture is important for older adults with IBD, especially CD. Strategies that improve quality of inpatient care for IBD patients hospitalized for hip fracture should be considered.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Muscle-bone deficits are common in pediatric Crohn's disease; however, few studies have assessed long-term musculoskeletal outcomes in adults with childhood-onset Crohn's disease. This study assessed the prevalence of musculoskeletal deficits in young adults with childhood-onset Crohn's disease compared with healthy controls. METHODS High-resolution MRI and MR spectroscopy were used to assess bone microarchitecture, cortical geometry and muscle area, and adiposity at distal femur and bone marrow adiposity (BMA) at lumbar spine. Muscle function and biomarkers of the muscle-bone unit were also assessed. RESULTS Twenty-seven adults with Crohn's disease with median (range) age 23.2 years (18.0, 36.1) and 27 age and sex-matched controls were recruited. Trabecular microarchitecture, cortical geometry and BMA were not different between Crohn's disease and controls (P > 0.05 for all). Muscle area was lower (P = 0.01) and muscle fat fraction was higher (P = 0.04) at the distal femur in Crohn's disease compared to controls. Crohn's disease participants had lower grip strength [-4.3 kg (95% confidence interval (CI), -6.8 to -1.8), P = 0.001] and relative muscle power [-5.0 W/kg (95% CI, -8.8 to -1.2), P = 0.01]. Crohn's disease activity scores negatively associated with trabecular bone volume (r = -0.40, P = 0.04) and muscle area (r = -0.41, P = 0.03). CONCLUSION Young adults with well-controlled Crohn's disease managed with contemporary therapies did not display abnormal bone microarchitecture or geometry at the distal femur but exhibited muscle deficits. The observed muscle deficits may predispose to musculoskeletal morbidity in future and interventions to improve muscle mass and function warrant investigation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Patients with inflammatory bowel disease [IBD] are subject to more work disability than the general population. We aimed to estimate the monetary cost of IBD for the individual through assessment of earnings in relation to diagnosis. METHODS Through linkage of national registers, we identified patients aged 30-55 years at first IBD diagnosis in Sweden in 2002-2011, and same-sex IBD-free siblings. We estimated taxable earnings and disposable income from 5 years before to 5 years after diagnosis. RESULTS The 5961 patients [27% Crohn's disease, 68% ulcerative colitis, 4.3% IBD unclassified] had similar taxable earnings to their 7810 siblings until the year of diagnosis, when earnings decreased and remained lower than for siblings during follow-up. The adjusted difference in earnings over the entire 5-year period after diagnosis was -5% [-8212€; 95% confidence interval: -11 458 to -4967€]. The difference was greater in women than in men, and greater in Crohn's disease than in ulcerative colitis. When stratifying for sex and IBD subtype and comparing earnings during each year of follow-up, median annual earnings were lower in women with Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis than in their sisters during all years of follow-up, whereas the men had similar annual taxable earnings to their brothers. Disposable income was similar between patients and siblings during the investigated time period. CONCLUSION From the year of diagnosis and at least 5 years onwards, patients with IBD had 5% lower earnings than siblings, mainly explained by differences between women with IBD and their sisters. However, there were no differences in disposable income.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The Danish National Patient Registry (DNPR) has been the source of several epidemiological studies of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). However, the validation dates back to 1996 and lacks outpatient records and disease classification. The aim of this study was to update the validation and assess the validity and reliability of using the registry in disease classification. METHODS Validation of the registry was done using a population-based inception cohort of IBD patients from 2003 to 2011 consisting of 513 patients. Specificity and sensitivity were calculated for the diagnoses of Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC), age at diagnosis and disease classification according to the Montreal Classification at both time of diagnosis and end of follow-up. RESULTS The registry showed high validity and reliability in identifying CD and UC patients concerning correct age classification and identifying perianal disease. The registry showed inconsistent, unreliable results in further disease classification. CONCLUSIONS The DNPR has good validity and reliability in identifying patients with CD and UC, and defining the age of patients at diagnosis. However, categorising IBD patients according to the Montreal Classification should not be carried out using DNPR data in their current form, except when identifying CD patients with perianal disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS With rising rates of inflammatory bowel diseases [IBD] in older adults, management of comorbidities such as osteoporosis is becoming increasingly important. Hip fracture [HF] is the most serious consequence of low bone mineral quality and is associated with excess risk of mortality. For older IBD patients, there are only limited data available. Therefore, we aimed to assess the association of IBD with HF, and all-cause mortality risk after HF, among IBD patients older than 50 years. METHODS In a national database-registered case-control study, 56 821 HF cases aged ≥50 years, and 113 718 age-, sex- and region-matched non-hip-fracture controls, were analysed between 2012 and 2016. A history of IBD was assessed from data from Austrian social health insurance funds. Logistic regression and Cox proportional multivariate models were used to test the association of IBD with HF and post-hip fracture mortality risk. RESULTS A total of 531 patients were identified with IBD (25.0% men, mean age 81.2 years, standard deviation [SD] 9.7). Analysis, adjusted for anti-osteoporotic treatment, use of glucocorticoids, and selected medications, showed that IBD patients had an increased odds of HF (odds ratio [[OR] 2.22, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.86-2.64). Patients with Crohn's disease [CD] revealed a higher HF odds in contrast to patients with ulcerative colitis [OR 2.91, 95% CI 2.17-3.89 and OR 1.89, 95% CI 1.52-2.35, respectively]. Overall mortality risk after HF was higher among female CD patients [HR 1.75, 95% CI 1.28-2.41] than in the general population. CONCLUSIONS IBD was strongly associated with HF in older patients. Post-hip fracture mortality risk was elevated particularly in women with CD.

Abstract
Vitamin D is responsible for regulation of calcium and phosphate metabolism and maintaining a healthy mineralized skeleton. It is also known as an immunomodulatory hormone. Experimental studies have shown that 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D, the active form of vitamin D, exerts immunologic activities on multiple components of the innate and adaptive immune system as well as endothelial membrane stability. Association between low levels of serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D and increased risk of developing several immune-related diseases and disorders, including psoriasis, type 1 diabetes, multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, tuberculosis, sepsis, respiratory infection, and COVID-19, has been observed. Accordingly, a number of clinical trials aiming to determine the efficacy of administration of vitamin D and its metabolites for treatment of these diseases have been conducted with variable outcomes. Interestingly, recent evidence suggests that some individuals might benefit from vitamin D more or less than others as high inter-individual difference in broad gene expression in human peripheral blood mononuclear cells in response to vitamin D supplementation has been observed. Although it is still debatable what level of serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D is optimal, it is advisable to increase vitamin D intake and have sensible sunlight exposure to maintain serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D at least 30 ng/mL (75 nmol/L), and preferably at 40-60 ng/mL (100-150 nmol/L) to achieve the optimal overall health benefits of vitamin D.

Abstract
The chronic character of inflammatory bowel diseases, such as Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, results in various complications. One of them is osteoporosis, manifested by low bone mineral density, which leads to an increased risk of fractures. The aetiology of low bone mineral density is multifactorial and includes both diet and nutritional status. Calcium and vitamin D are the most often discussed nutrients with regard to bone mineral density. Moreover, vitamins A, K, C, B12; folic acid; calcium; phosphorus; magnesium; sodium; zinc; copper; and selenium are also involved in the formation of bone mass. Patients suffering from inflammatory bowel diseases frequently consume inadequate amounts of the aforementioned minerals and vitamins or their absorption is disturbed, resulting innutritional deficiency and an increased risk of osteoporosis. Thus, nutritional guidelines for inflammatory bowel disease patients should comprise information concerning the prevention of osteoporosis.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic inflammatory medical condition with relapses and remission. Metabolic bone disease, including osteoporosis, is associated with IBD and imparts a significant morbidity if pathologic fractures were to occur. There has been a significant amount of research that evaluated the pathophysiology and associations between IBD and osteoporosis. Although corticosteroids contribute to the risk of low bone mineral density, osteoporosis and fractures, older age, female gender, smoking, and family history of fracture have been shown to contribute. Additionally, intestinal inflammation affects bone resorption and formation through proinflammatory cytokines such as tumor necrosis factor-a, interleukin-1, and interleukin-6 further accelerating bone loss. Little information is available on standardizing screening or treatment. It is important to recognize the risk factors that are associated with IBD and osteoporosis to identify the patient population at risk and initiate treatment/prevention strategies early. Treatment can include calcium, vitamin D, or bisphosphonates. Some studies showed benefit of treating the underlying IBD to improve bone mineral density.

Abstract
Purpose Patients with Crohn’s disease have increased work loss. We aimed to describe changes in work ability in relation to pharmacological and surgical treatments. Patients and Methods We linked data from the Swedish National Patient Register, The Swedish Quality Register for Inflammatory Bowel Disease SWIBREG, The Prescribed Drug Register, The Longitudinal Integrated Database for Health Insurance and Labour Market Studies, and the Social Insurance Database. We identified working-age (19–59 years) patients with incident Crohn’s disease 2006–2013 and population comparator subjects matched by sex, birth year, region, and education level. We assessed the number of lost workdays due to sick leave and disability pension before and after treatments. Results Of 3956 patients (median age 34 years, 51% women), 39% were treated with aminosalicylates, 52% with immunomodulators, 22% with TNF inhibitors, and 18% with intestinal surgery during a median follow-up of 5.3 years. Most patients had no work loss during the study period (median=0 days). For all treatments, the mean number of lost workdays increased during the months before treatment initiation, peaked during the first month of treatment and decreased thereafter, and was heavily influenced by sociodemographic factors and amount of work loss before first Crohn’s disease diagnosis. The mean increase in work loss days compared to pre-therapeutic level was ~3 days during the first month of treatment for all pharmacological therapies and 11 days for intestinal surgery. Three months after treatment initiation, 88% of patients treated surgically and 90–92% of patients treated pharmacologically had the same amount of work loss as before treatment start. Median time to return to work was 2 months for all treatments. Conclusion In this regular clinical setting, patients treated surgically had more lost workdays than patients treated pharmacologically, but return to work was similar between all treatments.

Abstract
As the incidence of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) rises and the global population ages, the number of older people living with these conditions will inevitably increase. The challenges posed by comorbid conditions, polypharmacy, the unintended consequences of long-term treatment and the real but often underestimated mismatch between chronological and biological ages underpin management. Significantly, there may be differences in disease characteristics, presentation and management of an older patient with IBD, together with other unique challenges. Importantly, clinical trials often exclude older patients, so treatment decisions are frequently pragmatic, extrapolated from a number of sources of evidence and perhaps primarily dictated by concerns around adverse effects. This review aimed to discuss the epidemiology, clinical features and considerations with management in older patients with IBD.
