Abstract or description:This analysis of U.S. electronic health records and linked insurance claims data (2019–2024) included 132,682 patients with psoriatic arthritis (PsA), of whom 1,163 developed new-onset inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Ten predictors of IBD were identified at PsA diagnosis, with 28.1% of all patients displaying ≥1 predictor. The highest-risk predictors were blood in stool, family history of IBD, and gastroenteritis/gastritis. Additionally, 14 early indicators for new-onset IBD were identified, with 86.2% of patients exhibiting ≥1 indicator within 180 days prior to IBD diagnosis. These findings suggest a need for heightened clinical suspicion for IBD in at-risk patients with PsA to support earlier recognition and diagnosis of IBD, and more informed treatment decisions.
Results from the cohorts in this real-world study were captured during routine clinical practice and are descriptive in nature only. Statistical significance has not been established.
