Aims: To define the number/frequency of organ systems affected by extraintestinal manifestations (EIMs), to identify factors affecting the clinical course of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and EIM development, and to determine the impact of smoking, disease duration and location on the diagnosis of EIMs in Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC).
Methods: IBD patients were derived from a single university colorectal surgery practice. Smoking data were obtained through a modified Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System survey. The frequencies of arthritis/arthralgia, primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC), ocular and cutaneous EIMs were determined.
Results: Of the 757 patients evaluated (CD 488, UC 269), 50% had ≥1 EIM. Arthritis/arthralgia, cutaneous and ocular EIMs were significantly higher in frequency in CD compared to UC patients. Prolonged disease duration was associated with increased prevalence of arthritis/arthralgia in IBD (p ≤ 0.001) as well as PSC (p = 0.049), ocular (p = 0.030) and cutaneous (p = 0.009) EIMs in CD. Disease location affected the occurrence of EIMs in CD. Smoking appeared to increase the prevalence of ocular EIMs in UC (p = 0.026).
Conclusion: Arthritis/arthralgia, cutaneous and ocular EIMs occurred in a significantly higher proportion of CD patients. CD patients with longer disease duration had a significantly higher prevalence of PSC, ocular and cutaneous EIMs. Smoking was found to increase ocular EIMs in UC.

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a complex, multisystemic disease and is associated with ocular pathology in 4-12% of patients. In general, ocular disease affects Crohn's patients more frequently than those with ulcerative colitis. Episcleritis and uveitis are the most common presentations, with episcleritis often correlating with IBD flares, whereas uveitis presents independently of IBD activity and, in some cases, may even alert clinicians to a new diagnosis of IBD.

Between 3-47% of patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) have extraintestinal manifestations (EIMs), and between 1.3-86.9% of patients with IBD suffer from ocular EIMs (O-EIMs) making the eye the third most common organ affected.

Background & Aims: Patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) frequently develop extraintestinal manifestations (EIMs) that contribute substantially to morbidity. We assembled the largest multicohort data set to date to investigate the clinical, serologic, and genetic factors associated with EIM complications in IBD.
Methods: Data were available in 12,083 unrelated European ancestry IBD cases with presence or absence of EIMs (eg, ankylosing spondylitis [ankylosing spondylitis and sacroiliitis], primary sclerosing cholangitis [PSC], peripheral arthritis, and skin and ocular manifestations) across 4 cohorts (Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, National Institute for Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases IBD Genetics Consortium, Sinai Helmsley Alliance for Research Excellence Consortium, and Risk Stratification and Identification of Immunogenetic and Microbial Markers of Rapid Disease Progression in Children with Crohn's Disease cohort).

Background And Aims: Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) are multifactorial chronic inflammatory disorders affecting the gastrointestinal tract. However, a broad spectrum of extraintestinal manifestations (EIMs) is associated with IBD, affecting several organs and systems, such as the skin, musculoskeletal and hepatobiliary systems, and, not least, the eye. Approximately 10% of IBD patients can develop ocular EIMs (O-EIMs) with a higher prevalence in Crohn's disease (CD).

Background: Extraintestinal manifestations (EIMs) of inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs) are a common and debilitating feature of disease, occurring in up to 40% of patients with IBD, yet predicting who may develop them is difficult. The goal of our study was to better characterize which patients may be at highest risk of developing not only 1 EIM, but also multiple EIMs, across both diseases.
Methods: A retrospective study of participants enrolled in the SPARC IBD (Study of Prospective Adult Research Cohort with IBD) registry was performed, and demographic and clinical data were analyzed.
