Background: Mucocutaneous manifestations of inflammatory bowel diseases are relatively common; the mean incidence is around 10% at the time of diagnosis. However, during follow-up, an increased variety of skin lesions, granulomatous cutaneous disease, reactive skin eruptions, nutritional defiencies, and other associated conditions may develop. Objective: The objective of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of the mucocutaneous manifestations and their association with gender, duration of disease, arthritis, location of the bowel disease, and disease activity. Methods: Fifty-six patients with ulcerative colitis (UC) and 36 patients with Crohn disease (CD) who were in follow-up in the Istanbul Medeniyet University Göztepe Training and Research Hospital Department of Gastroenterology were included in the study. Whole-body dermatologic examinations were performed for all patients, and patient files were evaluated for mucocutaneous manifestations. Results: Of the 92 patients, 49 (53.26%) presented with at least one mucocutaneous manifestation (58.9% of patients with UC and 44.4% of patients with CD). Of these, 38 (41.3%) had at least one reactive skin eruption. Aphthous stomatitis was noted in 33 patients (35.86%) and became the most common mucocutaneous manifestation. Granulomatous cutaneous diseases were detected in 18 patients (19.57%), and none of the patients had a nutritional deficiency–associated skin condition. Only 3 patients (3.26%) had erythema nodosum and 2 patients (2.17%) had pyoderma gangrenosum. Conclusions: We found that mucocutaneous manifestations of inflammatory bowel diseases are more common than thought and are more common in UC than in CD. No association was detected between mucocutaneous manifestions and gender, duration of disease, arthritis, location of the bowel disease, and activity of the disease.

Abstract Objective Vedolizumab (VDZ) has been incriminated in the occurrence of articular manifestations in patients with inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs). The aim of this study was to describe musculoskeletal manifestations occurring in IBD patients treated by VDZ and to identify risk factors. Methods In this retrospective monocentric study, we included all consecutive patients treated by VDZ for IBD in our hospital. Incident musculoskeletal manifestations occurring during VDZ treatment were analysed and characteristics of patients with and without articular inflammatory manifestations were compared. Results Between 2013 and 2017, 112 patients were treated with VDZ for IBD: ulcerative colitis (n = 59), Crohn’s disease (n = 49) and undetermined colitis (n = 4). Four patients (3.6%) had a history of SpA, whereas 13 (11.6%) had a history of peripheral arthralgia. Some 102 (91.1%) patients had previously received anti-TNF. After a mean (S.d.) follow-up of 11.4 (8.6) months, 32 (28.6%) patients presented 35 musculoskeletal manifestations, of which 18 were mechanical and 17 inflammatory. Among the latter, 11 had axial or peripheral SpA, 5 had early reversible arthralgia and 1 had chondrocalcinosis (n = 1). Among the 11 SpA patients, only 3 (2.6%) had inactive IBD and may be considered as paradoxical SpA. The only factor associated with occurrence of inflammatory manifestations was history of inflammatory articular manifestation [7/16 (43.8%) vs 10/80 (12.5%), P = 0.007]. Conclusion Musculoskeletal manifestations occurred in almost 30% of IBD patients treated with VDZ, but only half of them were inflammatory. Since most of the patients previously received anti-TNF, occurrence of inflammatory articular manifestations might rather be linked to anti-TNF discontinuation than to VDZ itself.

Different Levels

Extraintestinal manifestations of ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease are symptoms of variegated organ injuries due to systemic inflammatory process. Bowel disease seems to be primary but upon genetic disposition disturbed immune regulation may result in inflammation of other organs that may appear simultaneously, precede bowel disease or follow it in the quiescent phase. As far as possible extraintestinal manifestations have to be distinguished from the complications of the intestinal inflammation and also from side effects of drugs for its treatment. Involvement of bones and joints, skin, eyes, liver and biliary tract is more common but disease of blood coagulation system, lung, kidneys and nervous system may also appear. Treatment of extraintestinal manifestations is influenced by their association with the activity of the bowel disease. Beyond some specific interventions, to achieve improvement of manifestations independent from activity long lasting anti-inflammatory therapy or immunomodulation is almost always needed. Clinical evidence of different levels from reports support the favorable effect of biologic therapy in different extraintestinal manifestations of inflammatory bowel diseases as well. Care and follow-up of patients is a multidisciplinary task. Orv. Hetil., 2011, 152, 663–671.

Abstract Background Inflammatory bowel diseases are characterized by chronic inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract. In particular, Crohn disease and ulcerative colitis represent the two most common types of clinical manifestations. Extraintestinal manifestations of inflammatory bowel diseases represent a common complications, probably reflecting the systemic inflammation. Renal involvement is reported in 4–23% of cases. However, available data are limited to few case series and retrospective analysis, therefore the real impact of renal involvement is not well defined. Case presentation We report the case of a 10-years old male affected by very early onset unclassified-Inflammatory bowel diseases since he was 1-year old, presenting with a flare of inflammatory bowel diseases associated with acute kidney injury due to granulomatous interstitial nephritis. Of interest, at 7-year-old, he was treated for IgA nephropathy. To our knowledge, no previous reports have described a relapse of renal manifestation in inflammatory bowel diseases, characterized by two different clinical and histological phenotypes. Conclusions The link between the onset of kidney injuries with flares of intestinal inflammation suggest that nephritis maybe considered an extra-intestinal manifestation correlated with active inflammatory bowel disease. However, if granulomatous interstitial nephritis represents a cell-mediated hypersensitivity reaction than a true extraintestinal manifestation of inflammatory bowel diseases is still not clarified. We suggest as these renal manifestations here described may be interpreted as extraintestinal disorder and also considered as systemic signal of under treatment of the intestinal disease.

Abstract Background No data on the recently introduced infliximab (IFX) biosimilar SB2 in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are available. Methods The Sicilian Prospective Observational Study of Patients With IBD Treated With Infliximab Biosimilar SB2 is a multicenter, observational, prospective study performed among the cohort of the Sicilian Network for Inflammatory Bowel Disease. All consecutive IBD patients starting the IFX biosimilar SB2 from its introduction in Sicily (March 2018) to September 2019 (18 months) were enrolled. Results Two hundred seventy-six patients (Crohn disease: 49.3%, ulcerative colitis: 50.7%) were included: 127 (46.0%) were naïve to IFX and naïve to anti-tumor necrosis factor medications (anti-TNFs), 65 (23.5%) were naïve to IFX and previously exposed to anti-TNFs, 17 (6.2%) were switched from an IFX originator to SB2, 43 (15.6%) were switched from the biosimilar CT-P13 to SB2, and 24 (8.7%) were multiply switched (from IFX originator to CT-P13 to SB2). The cumulative number of infusions of SB2 was 1798, and the total follow-up time was 182.7 patient-years. Sixty-seven serious adverse events occurred in 57 patients (20.7%; incidence rate: 36.7 per 100 patient-year), and 31 of these events caused the withdrawal of the drug. The effectiveness after 8 weeks of treatment was evaluated in patients naïve to IFX (n = 192): 110 patients (57.3%) had steroid-free remission, while 56 patients had no response (29.2%). At the end of follow-up, 72 patients (26.1%) interrupted the treatment, without significant differences in treatment persistency estimations between the five groups (log-rank P = 0.15). Conclusions The safety and effectiveness of SB2 seem to be overall similar to those reported for the IFX originator and CT-P13.

Abstract Background Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) are disabling disorders. The IBD-Disability Index (IBD-DI) was developed for quantifying disability in IBD patients but is difficult to use. The IBD-Disk is a shortened and visual adaptation of the IBD-DI. It has not been validated yet. The main objectives were to validate the IBD-Disk in a large cohort of IBD patients and to assess its variability over time. Methods From March 2018 to July 2019, IBD patients from three university-affiliated hospitals responded twice to both IBD-Disk and IBD-DI at 3–12 months intervals (NCT03590639). Validation included concurrent validity, reproducibility, internal consistency, and evaluation of IBD-Disk correlation with IBD activity. Variability was assessed by comparing scores between baseline and follow-up visits. Results A total of 559 patients (73% Crohn’s disease, 27% ulcerative colitis) were included and 389 were followed up (Table 1). There was a good correlation between IBD-Disk and IBD-DI scores (r = 0.75, p < 0.001) (Figure 1). The IBD-Disk was significantly higher in patients with active disease according to Physician/Patient Global Assessment (Figure 2), clinical scores (Figure 3), and biomarkers levels, compared with patients with inactive disease. Reproducibility was excellent (intra-class correlation coefficient = 0.90), as well as internal consistency (Cronbach’s α = 0.89). The IBD-Disk score significantly decreased in patients becoming inactive over time. Conclusion This is the first study to validate the IBD-Disk in a large cohort of IBD patients, demonstrating that it is a valid and reliable tool for quantifying disability in clinical practice. Further studies are warranted to assess its correlation with endoscopic activity, to explore its responsiveness to change, and to evaluate the factors associated with disability.
