Abstract
- Purpose: Patients with Crohn's disease (CD) and subsequent ocular manifestations may have worse outcomes when compared to matched patients with CD without ocular disease. Methods: In this retrospective cohort study, an aggregated electronic health records research network, TriNetX (Cambridge, MA, USA), was used to identify patients diagnosed with CD stratified by the presence or absence of ocular involvement with at least 1 year of follow-up. Propensity score matching (PSM) was performed to control for baseline demographics and medical comorbidities. Results: Patients with CD with ocular disease showed a greater risk of undergoing bowel resections (RR: 2.06, 95% CI: 1.48–2.85, p < 0.001), developing other CD-related gastrointestinal complications (RR: 1.31, CI: 1.15–1.49, p < 0.001), or acquiring Clostridioides difficile infections (RR: 2.19, CI: 1.89–2.54, p < 0.001). Further, patients with CD with ocular sequelae had a greater risk of developing NASH (RR: 1.43, CI: 1.31–1.56, p < 0.001), CD-related nutrient deficiencies (RR: 1.38, CI: 1.29–1.49, p < 0.001), iron deficiency anemia (RR: 1.41, CI: 1.33–1.50, p < 0.001), CD-related dermatological disease (RR: 1.84, CI: 1.65–2.05, p < 0.001), osteoporosis (RR: 1.49, CI: 1.37–1.64, p < 0.001) and primary sclerosing cholangitis (RR: 1.63, CI: 1.11–2.38, p = 0.011). Among patients with CD with ocular involvement, there was an elevated risk of MI (RR: 1.36, CI: 1.14–1.63, p < 0.001), stroke (RR: 1.42, CI: 1.18–1.70, p < 0.001), VTE (RR: 1.37, CI: 1.22–1.54, p < 0.001), and sepsis (RR: 1.53, CI: 1.37–1.71, p < 0.001). Conclusions: Patients who have CD and subsequent ocular involvement have an increased risk of local intestinal complications, extraintestinal morbidity, and cardiovascular complications when compared to patients with CD without ocular involvement.
