Systematic Review and Meta-analysis: Phenotype and Clinical Outcomes of Older-onset Inflammatory Bowel Disease.

ABSTRACT: Little is known of the clinical outcome of patients with older-onset inflammatory bowel disease [IBD]. We performed a systematic review to determine phenotype and outcomes of older-onset IBD compared with younger-onset subjects.A systematic search of Embase and Medline up to June 2015 identified studies investigating phenotype and outcomes of older-onset [diagnosed at age ? 50 years] Crohn's disease [CD] and ulcerative colitis [UC] subjects. Pooled analyses of disease phenotype, medication use, and disease-related surgery were calculated.We analysed findings from 43 studies comprising 8274 older-onset and 34641 younger-onset IBD subjects. Compared with younger-onset patients, older-onset CD patients were more likely to have colonic disease (odds ratio [OR] 2.56, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.88 - 3.48) and inflammatory behaviour [OR 1.19, 95% CI 1.07 - 1.33], and less likely to have penetrating disease or perianal involvement. More older-onset UC patients had left-sided colitis [OR 1.49, 95% CI 1.18 - 1.88]. Although fewer older-onset IBD patients received immunomodulators [CD: OR 0.44; UC: OR 0.60] or biologicals [CD: OR 0.34; UC: OR 0.41], older-onset CD was similar in the need for surgery [OR 0.70, 95% CI 0.40 - 1.22] whereas more older-onset UC patients underwent surgery [OR 1.36, 95% CI 1.18 - 1.57].Elderly IBD patients present with less complicated disease, but have similar or higher rates of surgery than non-elderly patients. Whether this reflects a non-benign disease course, physicians' reluctance to employ immunomodulators, or both, merits further study which is essential for improving the care of IBD in the elderly.

Project description:BACKGROUND:There has been limited evaluation of the association between vedolizumab trough concentration and clinical outcomes in patients with inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). AIM:To perform a systematic review and meta-analysis to evaluate the potential role of therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) for vedolizumab. METHODS:Through a systematic literature search through 28 February 2019, we identified five cohort studies (558 patients, 42% with ulcerative colitis) reporting the association between vedolizumab trough concentration and clinical outcomes in patients with IBD. We calculated mean difference (MD) in vedolizumab trough concentration in patients achieving vs not achieving clinical outcomes, and qualitatively synthesized thresholds associated with favourable outcomes. RESULTS:In patients with UC, median vedolizumab trough concentrations were consistently higher in patients achieving clinical remission (median, 14.3 ?g/mL vs 10.5 ?g/mL; MD, 5.1 ?g/mL, 95% CI, 2.8-7.4) or endoscopic remission (median, 13.0 ?g/mL vs 9.7; MD, 5.1 ?g/mL, 95% CI, 2.2-7.9). In patients with CD, there was no significant difference in median vedolizumab trough concentrations in patients achieving vs not achieving clinical remission (MD, 2.0 ?g/mL; 95% CI, -0.5 to 4.5) or endoscopic remission (MD, 3.6 ?g/mL; 95% CI, -1.4 to 8.6). In patients with UC, week 6 vedolizumab trough concentrations ?18.5-20.8 ?g/mL, and maintenance trough concentrations ?9.0-12.6 ?g/mL were associated with favourable clinical outcomes. Antibodies to vedolizumab were reported in 1.7%-3.0% patients on maintenance therapy. CONCLUSION:Based on meta-analysis, patients with UC who achieve endoscopic and clinical remission have significantly higher vedolizumab trough concentration during maintenance therapy. Vedolizumab trough concentration >20 ?g/mL at week 6, and >12 ?g/mL during maintenance may be associated with better outcomes, though cause-effect relationship remains unclear. Prospective studies on reactive and proactive therapeutic drug monitoring of vedolizumab (vs empiric dose escalation) are warranted.

Project description:BackgroundOur understanding of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) and its implications for patients with inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) is rapidly evolving. We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to investigate the epidemiology, clinical characteristics, and outcomes in IBD patients with COVID-19.MethodsWe searched PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Central, Clinicaltrials.gov, Web of Science, MedRxiv, and Google Scholar from inception through October 2020. We included studies with IBD patients and confirmed COVID-19. Data were collected on the prevalence, patient characteristics, pre-infection treatments for IBD, comorbidities, hospitalization, intensive care unit (ICU), admission, and death.ResultsTwenty-three studies with 51,643 IBD patients and 1449 with COVID-19 met our inclusion criteria. In 14 studies (n = 50,706) that included IBD patients with and without COVID-19, the prevalence of infection was 1.01% (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.92-1.10). Of IBD patients with COVID-19, 52.7% had Crohn's disease, 42.2% had ulcerative colitis, and 5.1% had indeterminate colitis. Nine studies (n = 687) reported outcomes according to IBD therapy received. Compared with patients on corticosteroids, those on antitumor necrosis factor (anti-TNF) therapy had a lower risk of hospitalization (risk ratio [RR], 0.24; 95% CI, 0.16-0.35; P < .01; I2 = 0%) and ICU admission (RR, 0.10; 95% CI, 0.03-0.37; P < .01) but not death (RR, 0.16; 95% CI, 0.02-1.71; P = .13; I2 = 39%). Compared with patients on mesalamine, those on antitumor necrosis factor therapy had a lower risk of hospitalizations (RR, 0.37; 95% CI, 0.25-0.54), ICU admissions (RR, 0.20; 95% CI, 0.07-0.58), and death (0.21; 95% CI, 0.04-1.00). Comparing patients on immunomodulators vs mesalamine or anti-TNF therapy, there was no difference in these outcomes.ConclusionsThe prevalence of COVID-19 in IBD patients was low. Use of corticosteroids or mesalamine was significantly associated with worse outcomes, whereas use of anti-TNFs was associated with more favorable outcomes. Further investigation clarifying the mechanisms of these disparate observations could help identify risk and adverse outcome-mitigating strategies for patients with IBD.

Project description:Background & aimsThe incidence of inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs) in older adults is increasing. We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to evaluate progression of elderly onset (EO) IBD in population-based cohorts and compared it with adult onset (AO) IBD.MethodsIn a systematic review through June 1, 2019, we identified population-based cohort studies of EO IBD reporting the cumulative risk of hospitalization, surgery, mortality, treatment patterns, escalation, and/or malignancy. Data were synthesized using random-effects meta-analysis as cumulative risk of events at 1 year, 5 years, and 10 years, and compared with data from patients with AO IBD in the same cohorts.ResultsWe identified 9 studies, comprising 14,765 patients with EO IBD. In patients with EO Crohn's disease (CD), the cumulative 5-year risk of surgery was 22.6% (95% CI, 18.7-27.2) and was similar to that of patients with AO CD (relative risk [RR], 1.04; 95% CI, 0.80-1.34). Overall exposure to corticosteroids was comparable between patients with EO CD vs AO CD (5-year risk: 55.4%; 95% CI, 53.4-57.4; RR, 0.88; 95% CI, 0.78-1.00), but exposure to immunomodulators (31.5%; 95% CI, 29.7-33.4; RR, 0.62; 95% CI, 0.51-0.77) or biologic agents (6.5%; 95% CI, 5.6-7.6; RR, 0.36; 95% CI, 0.25-0.52) was significantly lower for patients with EO CD than for patients with AO CD. Similarly, in patients with EO ulcerative colitis (UC), the cumulative 5-year risk of surgery was 7.8% (95% CI, 5.0-12.0), similar to the risk for patients with AO UC (RR, 1.29; 95% CI, 0.79-2.11). Overall exposure to corticosteroids was comparable between patients with EO UC vs AO UC (5-year risk: 57.2%; 95% CI, 55.6-58.7; RR, 0.98; 95% CI, 0.91-1.06), but exposure to immunomodulators (16.1%; 95% CI, 15.0-17.2; RR, 0.58; 95% CI, 0.54-0.62) or biologic agents (2.0%; 95% CI, 1.6-2.5; RR, 0.36; 95% CI, 0.24-0.52) was significantly lower for patients with EO UC than for patients with AO UC. Patients with EO IBD appeared to have increased mortality, but not malignancy, compared with the general population. There were few data on comorbidities or adverse effects of medications.ConclusionsIn a systematic review and meta-analysis, we found that patients with EO IBD have a similar risk of surgery as patients with AO IBD. However, patients with EO IBD are less likely to receive treatment with immunomodulators or biologic agents.

Project description:Summary Background Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) mainly affects people during reproductive age. However, it is unclear whether IBD might be associated with impaired ovarian reserve in female patients or with in vitro fertilization (IVF) outcomes. Methods This systematic review and meta-analysis included articles from inception to May, 2022. Random-effect model was applied to calculate the standardized mean differences (SMDs) and odds ratios (ORs) and their 95% confidence intervals (95%CIs). Studies comparing the ovarian reserve or IVF outcomes of patients with IBD with the population were considered. To be included in this study, necessary measurements such as OR, relative risk (RR), SMD or hazard ratio (HR) or any necessary information to calculate them were provided in the articles. Letters, case reports, review articles including meta-analyses and expert opinions were excluded. For different articles studying the same population, the article with larger scale was selected. Findings We included in our analysis 9 studies and data from 2386 IBD records and matched controls. Comparing with women without IBD, women with IBD had lower anti-mullerian hormone (AMH) levels (SMD = -0.38, 95%CI: -0.67, -0.09); (I2 = 79.0%, p = 0.000). Patients with IBD of different ages showed distinct ovarian reserves, with patients below 30 years old not showing any decline in ovarian reserve compared to the control group (SMD = -0.56, 95%CI: -2.28, 1.16); (I2 = 96.3%; p = 0.000), while patients with IBD over 30 years old (SMD = -0.75, 95%CI: -1.07, -0.43); (I2 = 0.0%; p = 0.608) showed a decline compared to control group. Patients with IBD in remission stage had similar ovarian reserves to population (SMD = -0.10, 95%CI: -0.32, 0.12); (I2 = 0.0%; p = 0.667), while patients in active stage showed an impaired ovarian reserve (SMD = -1.30, 95%CI: -1.64, -0.96); (I2 = 0.0%; p = 0.318). Patients with IBD showed a pregnancy rate after receiving IVF treatment comparable to the control population (OR = 0.87, 95%CI: 0.55, 1.37); (I2 = 70.1%, p = 0.035). Interpretation The result of this study suggest that IBD may reduce reproductive age women's ovarian reserve and IVF treatment might help pregnancy outcomes in patients with impaired fertility. These results should be further validated in additional studies given the heterogeneity and quality of the studies included.

Project description:BackgroundThe risk of severe acute respiratory syndrome-related coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection and clinical outcomes of coronavirus disease (COVID-19) in inflammatory bowel disease are unclear.MethodsWe searched PubMed and Embase with the keywords: inflammatory bowel disease, Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis and COVID-19, novel coronavirus and SARS-CoV-2. We included studies reporting the frequency of COVID-19 infection and outcomes (hospitalisation, need for intensive care unit care and mortality) in patients with inflammatory bowel disease. We estimated the pooled incidence of COVID-19 in inflammatory bowel disease and comparative risk vis-a-vis the general population. We also estimated the pooled frequency of outcomes and compared them in patients who received and did not receive drugs for inflammatory bowel disease.ResultsTwenty-four studies were included. The pooled incidence rate of COVID-19 per 1000 patients of inflammatory bowel disease and the general population were 4.02 (95% confidence interval [CI, 1.44-11.17]) and 6.59 [3.25-13.35], respectively, with no increase in relative risk (0.47, 0.18-1.26) in inflammatory bowel disease. The relative risk of the acquisition of COVID-19 was not different between ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease (1.03, 0.62-1.71). The pooled proportion of COVID-19-positive inflammatory bowel disease patients requiring hospitalisation and intensive care unit care was 27.29% and 5.33% while pooled mortality was 4.27%. The risk of adverse outcomes was higher in ulcerative colitis compared to Crohn's disease. The relative risks of hospitalisation, intensive care unit admission and mortality were lower for patients on biological agents (0.34, 0.19-0.61; 0.49, 0.33-0.72 and 0.22, 0.13-0.38, respectively) but higher with steroids (1.99, 1.64-2.40; 3.41, 2.28-5.11 and 2.70, 1.61-4.55) or 5-aminosalicylate (1.59, 1.39-1.82; 2.38, 1.26-4.48 and 2.62, 1.67-4.11) use.ConclusionSARS-CoV-2 infection risk in patients with inflammatory bowel disease is comparable to the general population. Outcomes of COVID-19-positive inflammatory bowel disease patients are worse in ulcerative colitis, those on steroids or 5-aminosalicylates but outcomes are better with biological agents.
