Many of these parameters have been linked to inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) activity. We evaluated the associative ability of several physiological metrics with IBD flares and how they change before the development of flare.<h3>Methods</h3>Participants throughout the United States answered daily disease activity surveys and wore an Apple Watch, Fitbit or Oura Ring. These devices collected longitudinal heart rate (HR), resting heart rate (RHR), heart rate variability (HRV), steps, and oxygenation (SpO2). C-reactive protein, erythrocyte sedimentation rate and fecal calprotectin were collected as standard of care. Linear mixed-effect models were implemented to analyze HR, RHR, steps, and SpO2, while cosinor mixed-effect models were applied to HRV circadian features. Mixed effect logistic regression was used to determine the predictive ability of physiological metrics.<h3>Results</h3>309 participants were enrolled across 36 states. Circadian patterns of HRV significantly differed between periods of inflammatory flare and remission, and symptomatic flare and remission. Marginal means for HR and RHR were higher during periods of inflammatory flare and symptomatic flare. There was lower daily steps during inflammatory flares. HRV, HR, and RHR differentiated whether participants with symptoms had inflammation. HRV, HR, RHR, steps, and SpO2 were significantly altered up to 7 weeks prior to inflammatory and symptomatic flares.<h3>Conclusions</h3>Longitudinally collected physiological metrics from wearable devices can identify and change prior to IBD flares, suggesting their feasibility to monitor and predict IBD activity.","PeriodicalId":12590,"journal":{"name":"Gastroenterology","volume":"54 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":29.4,"publicationDate":"2025-01-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142986880","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

MED adherence was assessed by repeated food frequency questionnaires (FFQ), using a predefined IBDMED score, alongside validated MED adherence screeners. Crohn’s disease activity index (CDAI), C-reactive protein (CRP), fecal calprotectin and microbial composition (16S-rRNA-sequencing) were assessed each visit. Baseline serum and fecal samples were analyzed for targeted quantitative metabolomics.<h3>Results</h3>Consecutive patients: 271 (52% males, average age- 31±12 years, B1 phenotype- 75%). FFQ collected: 636 (range 1-5 FFQ per patient). Adherence to MED was associated with a non-complicated CD course, and inversely correlated with CDAI, fecal calprotectin, CRP and microbial dysbiosis index (all <em>P</em> < .05). Increasing adherence to MED over time correlated with reduced CDAI and inflammatory markers (<em>P</em> < .05). Adherence to MED correlated with a microbial cluster of commensals and short-chain fatty acid producers including <em>Faecalibacterium</em>, and with plant metabolites, vitamin derivatives and amino acids. Conversely, adherence to MED inversely correlated with a cluster of oral genera, <em>Escherichia coli</em> and <em>Ruminococcus gnavus</em>, known CD-associated species, and with tryptophan metabolites, ceramides and primary bile acids (FDR < .2).<h3>Conclusion</h3>Adherence to MED is associated with beneficial clinical outcomes and decreased inflammatory markers. These may be driven by lower levels of primary bile-acids and microbial dysbiosis and a beneficial microbial and metabolite composition.

Compared with the risk in individuals without a family history of colorectal tumor (N=142,234), the risk of overall CRC was 1.4-fold in those with 1 FDR with one-time polyp diagnosis [95%CI=1.3-1.4, N=11,035; early-onset SIR: 1.4 (1.3-1.5), N=742]. The risk was significantly higher in individuals with 1 FDR with ≥2 times (frequent) polyp diagnoses [overall CRC: 1.8 (1.8-1.9); early-onset CRC=2.3 (2.0-2.6)]. A rather similar risk was observed for individuals with ≥2 FDRs with one-time polyp diagnosis [overall CRC: 1.9 (1.7-2.1); early-onset CRC: 2.2 (1.5-2.9)]. Individuals with ≥2 FDRs with frequent polyp diagnoses had a 2.4-fold overall risk (2.2-2.7) and a 3.9-fold early-onset risk (2.8-5.3). Younger age at polyp diagnosis in FDRs was associated with an increased risk of CRC. A family history of polyp in second-degree relatives was important only when there were frequent diagnoses of polyp.<h3>Conclusions</h3>A higher frequency of colorectal polyp diagnosis in relatives is associated with a greater risk of CRC, especially early-onset CRC. This risk is independent of number of affected relatives or youngest age at polyp diagnosis. These findings underscore the need for more personalized CRC screening strategies that are tailored to individuals with a family history of polyp.","PeriodicalId":12590,"journal":{"name":"Gastroenterology","volume":"19 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":29.4,"publicationDate":"2025-01-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142939543","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
