Erythema nodosum and pyoderma gangrenosum may occur in Crohn's disease. In the present evaluation of consecutive patients with Crohn's disease spanning more than two decades, erythema nodosum was seen in 45 patients and pyoderma gangrenosum was seen in seven patients. Forty-one of 566 women (7.2%) and nine of 449 men (2.0%) were affected. Of these, 45 (4.4%) had erythema nodosum and seven (0.7%) had pyoderma gangrenosum, including two (0.2%) with both dermatological disorders at different times during their clinical courses. Recurrent erythema nodosum was also detected in nine patients (20%) including eight women, while recurrent pyoderma gangrenosum was seen in two patients (28.6%). There was an age-dependent effect on the appearance of erythema nodosum in women, with the highest percentages seen in those younger than 20 years of age. Detection rates for erythema nodosum in women only approached the low mens' rates in Crohn's disease at older than 40 years of age. Most patients with these dermatological disorders had colonic disease with or without ileal involvement as well as complex disease, usually with penetrating complications. The present study documents a sex-based and age-dependent effect on the clinical expression of erythema nodosum in Crohn's disease. This suggests that some components of the inflammatory process in Crohn's disease may be modulated by estrogen-mediated events, particularly in adolescents and young adults.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the impact of comorbidities and extraintestinal manifestations of inflammatory bowel disease on the response of patients with inflammatory bowel disease to antitumour necrosis factor alpha (anti-TNFα) therapy.DesignData from 310 patients (194 with Crohn’s disease and 116 with ulcerative colitis) treated consecutively with the first anti-TNFα in 24 Spanish hospitals were retrospectively analysed. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to assess the associations between inflammatory bowel disease comorbidities and extraintestinal manifestations with anti-TNFα treatment outcomes. Key clinical features, such as type of inflammatory bowel disease and concomitant treatments, were included as fixed factors in the model.ResultsMultivariate logistic regression analyses (OR, 95% CI) showed that chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (2.67, 1.33 to 5.35) and hepato-pancreato-biliary diseases (1.87, 1.48 to 2.36) were significantly associated with primary non-response to anti-TNFα, as was the use of corticosteroids and the type of inflammatory bowel disease (ulcerative colitis vs Crohn’s disease). It was also found that myocardial infarction (3.30, 1.48 to 7.35) and skin disease (2.73, 1.42 to 5.25) were significantly associated with loss of response, along with the use of corticosteroids and the type of inflammatory bowel disease (ulcerative colitis vs Crohn’s disease).ConclusionsOur results suggest that the presence of some comorbidities in patients with inflammatory bowel disease, such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and myocardial infarction, and of certain extraintestinal manifestations of inflammatory bowel disease, such as hepato-pancreato-biliary conditions and skin diseases, appear to be related to failure to anti-TNFα treatment. Therefore, their presence should be considered when choosing a treatment.Trial registration numberNCT02861118.

The review is devoted to erythema nodosum (UE), which is a typical variant of septal panniculitis without vasculitis and is a  nonspecific immune inflammatory syndrome. Often, UE acts as one of the symptoms of systemic pathology, including rheumatic  diseases (RH), sarcoidosis, Crohn’s disease, ulcerative colitis, cancer, etc., which can cause late diagnosis and, accordingly, the  appointment of adequate therapy.

Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis are chronic inflammatory bowel diseases, which are often accompanied by inflammation of other organs. This article presents modern data on etiology, pathogenesis and clinical course of inflammatory bowel diseases, as well as information on extraintestinal eye manifestations of nonspecific ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease. The role of microbiota, genetic factors, immune system defects in pathogenesis of intestinal inflammation and extraintestinal eye manifestations is considered. The possibility the development of ophthalmopathology not only against the background of intestinal inflammation, but also as a consequence of therapeutic and surgical methods of treatment of ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease is noted. The peculiarities of the course of episcleritis/scleritis, keratitis, uveitis, chorioretinitis, optical neuritis for patients with inflammatory bowel diseases are considered. The presence of these complications may reflect the activity of the underlying disease, which in some cases requires correction of therapy. Anterior uveitis and episcleritis/scleritis are the most common extraintestinal manifestations of inflammatory bowel disease. Inflammation of tissues of the posterior segment of the eye and optic nerve against the background of ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease are less common, but are of clinical importance, as they can catastrophically damage the structures of the eye and, as a consequence, lead to complete blindness. Considering the possibility of mild clinical symptoms and asymptomatic course of inflammation in the eye envelopes, the importance of ophthalmological examination of all patients with ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease is emphasized. Aspects of modern therapy of ophthalmopathology and background intestinal inflammation are highlighted. Biological preparations — antagonists of pro-inflammatory cytokines — have been identified as the most promising in the treatment of inflammatory intestinal diseases and extraintestinal manifestations. The important role of proper nutrition and biologically active supplements containing omega-3 fatty acids, vitamin D, microelements, was noted as auxiliary therapy of both intestinal and extraintestinal inflammation.

Inflammatory bowel disease, a group of inflammatory conditions of the colon and small intestine, principally includes ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease. Current attention to inflammatory bowel disease is promoted by worldwide increase in its incidence and morbidity as well as shortcomings of existing treatment. Extraintestinal (musculoskeletal, skin, renal, hepatic etc.) manifestations of inflammatory bowel disease significantly complicate the diagnosis and may predict the development of intestinal symptoms. In certain cases, the severity of extraskeletal manifestations may exceed that of the main diagnosis. Here we describe a clinical example of this scenario.

Abstract Background Several inflammatory markers have been associated with both obesity and the risk of adverse outcomes. Studies exploring obesity as a potential risk factor in extraintestinal manifestations (EIMs) development in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are limited. Aims To describe the relationship between obesity and EIMs development, taking into consideration various confounding risk factors. Methods We performed a retrospective cohort study using data of 5,023 IBD patients diagnosed between 1954 and 2020. We collected data on demographics, clinical features, biochemistry, medications, smoking, weight status and EIMs (hepatobiliary, musculoskeletal, dermatological, urogenital, ophthalmological, and pulmonary). Obesity was defined as measured BMI≥30.00 kg/m2, prolonged steroid use – as using any corticosteroid formulations for at least 6 months. Rates were compared using Pearson’s chi-squared test with Bonferroni’s p-value adjustment. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression models were used to determine the association between obesity, potential contributing factors and EIMs. Results Data of 2,367 ulcerative colitis (UC) patients (47.8% females) and 2,656 Crohn’s disease (CD) patients (52.2% females), aged 18–97 (median 48.0, IQR 27.0) years, were analysed. Obesity was common among IBD patients (30.1%; 95% CI 28.7–31.6%) and the rate was higher than the Alberta’s population-based one (28.2%; 95% CI 28.17–28.23%); p=0.013. Obesity was less prevalent in the UC (28.5%; 95% CI 26.3–30.6%) vs CD cohort (31.4%; 95% CI 29.4–33.4%); p=0.049. In both cohorts, the EIMs prevalence tended to be slightly higher among IBD patients living with obesity compared to those without it (UC: 19.5% vs 16.1%, p=0.106; CD: 20.2% vs. 19.6%, p=0.767); the prevalence of specific EIMs subtypes and the proportion of IBD patients with over 2 or 3 EIMs also did not differ significantly. Among UC patients, obesity was proven to be a risk factor for EIMs development (OR 1.75, 95% CI 1.15–2.67; p=0.009), along with male sex (OR 1.90, 95% CI 1.25–2.89; p=0.02), and prolonged steroid use (OR 1.88, 95% CI 1.03–3.45; p=0.04). Among CD patients, logistic regression analysis showed that stricturing and penetrating disease behaviour (OR 1.69, 95% CI 1.04–2.75; p=0.033), iron deficiency (OR 1.55, 95% CI 1.16–2.07; p=0.003) and calcium deficiency (OR 2.43, 95% CI 1.36–4.36; p=0.003) were associated with EIMs development; obesity was not an independent or adjusted risk factor (Table). Conclusions In a large IBD cohort, obesity prevalence was found to be higher than in the general population. Interestingly, obesity was established as a risk factor for the EIMs development in UC, but not in CD. Our findings highlight the need for timely assessment and management of obesity in these disorders, which may help in preventing EIMs development. Funding Agencies AbbVie

Objectives: Thus far, few attempted to characterize the temporal onset of extraintestinal manifestations (EIM) in inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). We sought to determine the time of onset of these findings in a patient cohort with IBD. Methods: We reviewed the electronic health records of 508 IBD patients (303 CD, 205 UC) and summarized general patient characteristics and the temporal relationship and order of presentation of extraintestinal manifestations. Results: CD patients were younger at diagnosis. CD patients with ileocolonic involvement (L3) were younger, and UC patients with pancolitis (E3) were slightly younger at diagnosis. A total of 127 out of 303 (41.91%) CD and 81 out of 205 (39.51%) UC patients had EIMs (p = 0.5898). Some patients presented with EIMs before the diagnosis of IBD (9.45% of Crohn’s disease and 17.28% of ulcerative colitis patients with EIMs, respectively). Of these, seven cases (four in CD and three in UC) were visible by inspection of the patients (either dermatologic or ocular findings). The diagnosis of IBD and extraintestinal symptoms often occurred within a year (22.83% of CD and 16.04% of UC patients). Typically, the diagnosis of the first extraintestinal symptoms happened after the onset of bowel disease (+4.3 (±6.3) years, range: 10 years before to 30 years after in Crohn’s disease and +3.8 (±10) years, range: 24 years before to 30 years after) in ulcerative colitis. UC patients with pancolitis (E3) usually had EIMs earlier in the disease course and displayed EIMs more frequently before IBD diagnosis. Furthermore, patients with pancolitis developed EIMs more frequently than other sub-groups. Conclusion: Extraintestinal manifestations in inflammatory bowel diseases can present at any time, relative to the bowel symptoms. In cases, the presence of a characteristic EIM might be a harbinger of the development of IBD.
