Brief Summary: the prevalence of osteoporosis in patients with inflammatory bowel disease in Assiut University Hospitals.
Detailed Description: Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) includes ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD) (1) .There has been a global rise in the incidence of IBD over the last few decades. (2) In the course of this disease, apart from the involvement of the gastrointestinal tract, up to 50% of patients may also have extraintestinal manifestations (EIMs) .One of them may be osteoporosis (OST), which is present in over half of IBD patients; this constitutes a significant problem due to the increased risk of fractures, especially non-traumatic fractures.(3) Known risk factors for OST in IBD include the persistence of chronic inflammation, treatment with glucocorticosteroids, extensive range of the disease, previous resection of the small intestine, arthralgia, and current nutritional deficiencies. Some risk factors are similar to those found in the general population, such as age, smoking, or low physical activity.(3) The pathogenesis of osteoporosis is multifactorial and comprises such elements as steroid therapy, low body mass index (BMI), malnutrition, genetic predispositions, and vitamin D deficiency (4) Given that the gastroenterologist is often regarded as the main provider for IBD patients, gastroenterologists and primary care physicians are equally responsible to recommend preventive measures and screening for osteoporosis, in addition to other healthcare maintenance issues.(5) Dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) scans are globally recognised as the screening tool for low BMD (6) The Z and T scores are used to establish the diagnosis of osteoporosis, osteopenia or low BMD according to the 2019 International Society of Clinical Densitometry official position for adults.(7)
