P360 Prevalence and risk factors for fatigue in patients with inflammatory bowel disease and endoscopic healing
Meeting abstract du "19th Congress of ECCO", Stockholm, Suède, 21-24 février, 2024International audienceBackground Fatigue is a frequent symptom among patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). While the recent STRIDE II international guidelines consider disability-free and normal quality of life as therapeutic targets, the degree of endoscopic healing required to limit fatigue is unknown. The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence of fatigue and its determinants in a cohort of IBD patients with endoscopic healing. Methods We conducted a single-center cross-sectional study between January 2019 and June 2023. All consecutive IBD patients with endoscopic healing Crohn's disease (CD, CDEIS <4) and ulcerative colitis (UC, Mayo ≤ 1) were assessed for disability (IBD-disk) the day of the colonoscopy. Fatigue and severe fatigue were defined by an IBD-Disk energy subscore >5 and >7, respectively. Results 166 patients were included, of whom 64% (107/166) had CD. The majority of patients were treated with anti-TNF (91/166, 55%), half of them in combination therapy (44/166). The prevalence of fatigue and severe fatigue were 39% (65/166) and 23.5% (39/166) respectively, with no significant difference between CD and UC (p=0.59). The prevalence of fatigue in patient with partial endoscopic healing (Mayo 1 and CDEIS>0 and <4)) and with complete healing (Mayo 0, CDEIS 0) was 44.4% (24/54) and 36.6% (41/112) p =0.424.In multivariate analysis, factors associated with fatigue were female gender (OR=4.2, [1.1; 16.5], p= 0.040), presence of joint pain (OR=4.36, [1.0; 18.2], p= 0.04), sleep disturbance (OR =26.2, [5.5; 124.4], p <0.0001). Younger age (OR=0.95, [0.9; 0.99], p= 0.023) was associated with a significantly lower risk of fatigue. In multivariate analysis, severe fatigue was associated with female gender (OR=3.2, [1.1; 9.2], p= 0.026), the presence of joint pain (OR=2.9, [1.1; 8.1], p= 0.037) or sleep disorders (OR =11.3, [3.6; 35.9], p <0.0001). Conclusion One third of IBD patients with endoscopic healing suffer from fatigue. Female gender, arthralgia and especially sleep disorders are risk factors for fatigue. These results argue in favor of a holistic management of IBD patients
P231 Impact of the depth of mucosal healing on the burden of ulcerative colitis : a cross-sectional study
Meeting abstract du "19th Congress of ECCO", Stockholm, Suède, 21-24 février, 2024International audienceBackground Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a major cause of disability, affecting physical, emotional and social well-being. The recent STRIDE II international guidelines consider disability-free and normal quality of life as therapeutic targets. Today, the degree of mucosal healing required to reduce disability, incontinence and bowel urgencies is poorly known. Methods We conducted a single-center cross-sectional study between January 2021 and June 2023. All consecutive patients with UC and endoscopic healing (Mayo ≤ 1) underwent IBD-disk disability assessment the day of the colonoscopy. Histological healing was defined as Nancy score 0 or 1 (2 biopsies per segment from rectum to right colon). Moderate to severe disability was defined as an overall score ≥ 40. Incontinence was defined by a Wexner score >5 and bowel urgency by an NRS urgency score > 1). Results A total of 57 patients were included, with 34 (59.6%) women. Median age and disease duration were 47.4 (interquartile range [IQR] [43.5; 51.2]) and 13.0 years (IQR, 13.1-18.4), respectively. 37/57 (65%) patients had complete endoscopic healing Mayo 0 and 43/54 (80%) histological healing. The median overall IBD-Disk score was 29 [25.5; 37.5] and 27 (47%) had moderate to severe disability. There were no differences in terms of age, gender, body mass index, smoking status, disease extension and treatment for the 3 groups Mayo 1, Mayo 0 and histological healing. The rate of moderate to severe disability was not different among patients with Mayo 0 (7/20, 35%) vs. Mayo 1 (20/37, 54%) patients (p=0.26), or in patients with (22/43, 51%) or without histological healing (4/11,36%) (p =0.51). Of the 35 patients assessed, bowel urgency were reported in 11 (31.4%), with no difference between the two definitions of endoscopic healing (p=0.72) or histological healing (p=0.37). Among the 35 patients with a Wexner score evaluation, incontinence was observed in 19% (4/21) and 14% (2/14) of Mayo 0 and Mayo 1 patients respectively (p=0.99), and 24% (6/25) vs. 0% (0/7) of patients with or without histological healing (p=0.3). Conclusion Half of patients with UC who achieved endoscopic healing reported a moderate to severe disability. Mayo 0 (vs. 1) endoscopic healing and histological healing do not appear to provide any short-term benefit in terms of disability, fecal incontinence or bowel urgency

Reviving the "double jeopardy" hypothesis: physical health inequalities, ethnicity and severe mental illness
SummaryPeople with severe mental illness (SMI) experience a reduction in life expectancy of 15–20 years. Physical health and mortality experience may be even worse for ethnic minority groups with SMI, but evidence is limited. We suggest clinical, policy and research recommendations to address this inequality.</jats:p
