Clinical Course of COVID-19 in Patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease in Korea: a KASID Multicenter Study

Abstract: In 2020, the novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) began to spread worldwide and remains an ongoing medical challenge. This case series reports on the clinical features and characteristics of patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and confirmed COVID-19 infection. From February 2020 to March 2021, nine patients with IBD had confirmed COVID-19 across four hospitals in Korea. The median age at COVID-19 diagnosis was 42 years. Six patients were male, and seven patients had ulcerative colitis (UC). No … Show more

“…Information from 16 studies and the SECURE-IBD registry were used in evaluating the risk of adverse outcomes in UC and CD patients infected with SARS-CoV-2, including 6243 UC patients and 7308 CD patients [ 18 , 23 , 33 , 34 , 36 , 38 , 40 49 ]. The pooled RR was 1.38 (95% CI 1.27–1.50), with no evidence of heterogeneity ( I 2 = 13%; P = 0.31; Fig.…”

However, most of these studies are limited by the small number of patients [ 9 ]. Despite their immunosuppressed status and specific medication, IBD patients seem to develop mild forms of COVID-19 [ 10 , 11 ].…”
