Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) are progressively increasing their prevalence worldwide. Up to half of patients may also have extraintestinal manifestation and cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) is one of the most relevant, being the second cause of death in these patients. The classical cardiovascular (CV) risk scores do not adquately capture the CV risk in IBD. We are planning a prospective observational study to evaluate patients with IBD and a gender/age-matched cohort with the aims to investigate in 2-years follow-up * Occurrence of major cardiovascular events (MACEs) in both cohorts; * Predictive factors of risk for MACEs in IBD compared to controls; * Multi-omics evaluations with the support of artificial intelligence of biomarkers associated with occurrence of MACEs in IBD
Study Type
OBSERVATIONAL
Enrollment
600
IRCCS San Donato POliclinic
San Donato Milanese, Milan, Italy
Occurrence of Major cardiovascular events
Myocardial infarction, stroke, transient ischemic attack, heart failure, atrial fibrillation, acute arterial embolysm, ischemic angina
Time frame: 2 years
Multi-omics evaluations of biomarkers in IBD patients with occurrence of MACEs
Genomics - genetics score of investigated variants Transcritptomics - gene expression different in IBD patients with and without MACEs Microbiome - difference among IBD patients with and without MACEs Combined analysis of multi-omics data set and clinical characteristics with artificial intelligence
Time frame: 2 years follow-up
