Predictors of Subclinical Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease in Inflammatory Bowel Disease Patients

Acute myocardial infarction complicating acute ulcerative colitis: A clinical conundrum

“…6 A cross-sectional observational study on the Egyptian population also showed that the risk of ASCVD is higher in IBD patients, particularly during active disease. 7 The similar observation was also noticed by Danish nationwide cohort study, where IBD flares were associated with an increased risk of MI, stroke, and even cardiovascular death. 8 In a population-based cohort study, it is also observed that the traditional CVD risk factors are less prevalent in IBD patients than in general ACS subset population.…”

Acute myocardial infarction complicating acute ulcerative colitis: A clinical conundrum

“…(5)A cross-sectional observational study on the Egyptian population also showed that the risk of ASCVD is higher in IBD patients, particularly during active disease, with increased carotid intimal thickness and wall stiffness. (6) The same was depicted in a recent Danish nationwide cohort study showing that IBD flares are associated with an increased risk of MI, stroke, and even cardiovascular death. (7) It was found that traditional CVD risk factors were less prevalent in IBD patients than in the general ACS population in a population-based cohort study (8).…”
