Association of Hidradenitis Suppurativa With Inflammatory Bowel Disease: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Importance

Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are inflammatory diseases that share common genetic susceptibility and immunologic features. However, the link between HS and IBD has been largely unclear.

Objective

To conduct a meta-analysis to investigate the association between HS and IBD.

Data sources

A search of the MEDLINE, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, and Embase databases yielded 397 relevant studies from inception to June 10, 2018. Two additional studies were supplied by one of the investigators.

Study selection

Case-control, cross-sectional, or cohort studies that examined the odds or risk of IBD in patients with HS were included. No geographic or language limitations were imposed.

Data extraction and synthesis

The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines were followed. The Newcastle-Ottawa Scale was used to assess the risk of bias of included studies. Crohn disease and ulcerative colitis were analyzed separately, and a random-effects model meta-analysis was conducted.

Main outcomes and measures

The odds ratios (ORs) and hazard ratios (HRs) of IBD, Crohn disease, and ulcerative colitis in association with HS.

Results

Five case-control studies, 2 cross-sectional studies, and 1 cohort study with a total of 93 601 unique participants were included. The meta-analysis of case-control and cross-sectional studies showed significant associations of HS with Crohn disease (pooled OR, 2.12; 95% CI, 1.46-3.08) and ulcerative colitis (pooled OR, 1.51; 95% CI, 1.25-1.82). Two case-control studies found significant association of HS with IBD (ORs, 2.16 [95% CI, 1.40-3.34] and 10.00 [95% CI, 1.94-51.50]). One cohort study found an increased risk of IBD in patients with HS (HR, 5.6; 95% CI not reported; P < .002).

Conclusions and relevance

The evidence to date supports an association of HS with IBD. These results suggest that consultation with gastroenterologists should be sought when patients with HS present with recurrent abdominal pain, chronic diarrhea, bloody stool, and body weight loss.

Project description:ImportanceHidradenitis suppurativa/acne inversa (HS) is a chronic inflammatory skin disease characterized by occlusion of hair follicles as a primary pathogenic factor. There are scarce data regarding the prevalence of HS.ObjectiveTo estimate overall HS prevalence.Data sourcesThis review and meta-regression analysis was conducted using the Meta-analysis of Observational Studies in Epidemiology (MOOSE) reporting guideline. The academic search included PubMed, Cochrane registry, ClinicalTrials.gov, and evidence by NHS UK and Trip databases from inception through May 2020. To analyze HS prevalence, only cross-sectional studies or baseline assessments of longitudinal cohorts using census-based surveys or probabilistic and nonprobabilistic epidemiologic methods were considered. The search terms were (prevalence OR incidence OR epidemiology) AND (hidradenitis suppurativa OR acne inversa OR Verneuil's disease). No language restriction was applied.Study selectionOriginal investigations that reported HS prevalence were included. After exclusion criteria were applied, 17 studies qualified for qualitative analysis, but only 16 studies were quantitatively assessed.Data extraction and measuresTwo reviewers extracted data by age, diagnostic criteria, presence of any comorbidity, sample sizes, continent/location, sex, and other characteristics. Assessment of bias risk used the Joanna Briggs Institute Critical Appraisal Instrument for Studies Reporting Prevalence Data using random-effects models to synthesize available evidence.Main outcomes and measuresHidradenitis suppurativa prevalence (with 95% CI) among the overall population and among subgroups. Between-study heterogeneity was assessed (Cochran Q statistic) and quantified (I2 statistic).ResultsIn 16 quantitatively assessed studies included, prevalence estimates were reported only from Western European and Scandinavian countries, the US, and Australia. Meta-analysis with random effects, after adjusting for publication bias in the prevalence estimates, revealed a 0.40% prevalence (95% CI, 0.26%-0.63%) for HS. Studies based on clinical samples revealed a higher pooled prevalence of HS (1.7%) than population-based studies (0.3%).Conclusions and relevanceThe findings of this systematic review and meta-regression analysis may help facilitate policy formulation, channeling funding and guiding principles for better disease diagnosis using universal valid tools and management.

Project description:BackgroundHidradenitis suppurativa were associated with comorbidities in various organ systems. Inflammatory dermatological diseases such as pyoderma gangrenosum were reported to be associated with hidradenitis suppurativa. Nevertheless, as for the association between hidradenitis suppurativa and psoriasis, evidences were insufficient. In many studies, the association between psoriasis and hidradenitis suppurativa has been reported. However, some evidence seems to be controversial. The purpose of the systematic review and meta-analysis was to assess whether there was significant association between HS and psoriasis.MethodsOn June 01, 2022, we appraised 2,795 articles from databases including PubMed, Web of Science and Embase. Search syntaxes were based on 'hidradenitis suppurativa' or 'acne inversa' with "psoriasis", "comorbidities" or 'epidemiology'. Synonyms were determined based on MeSH terms and Emtree. Observational results that evaluated the odds ratio for people with hidradenitis suppurativa who had psoriasis were extracted for qualitative synthesis.ResultsAfter the selection process of the initial 2,795 studies, ten observational studies, including 3 cohort studies, 1 case-control study, and 6 cross-sectional studies, were extracted for critical appraisal. Based on the integration of 7 studies (with more than 560,000 participants included), people with hidradenitis suppurativa had a higher risk of having psoriasis, with a 2.67-fold risk (95% CI, 1.84, 3.87). The association remained in the sensitivity analyses utilizing strict adjustment models. In the analysis that only included studies with a similar study design and adjustments in obesity-related factors, the risk of people with hidradenitis suppurativa having psoriasis was 3.24 (95% CI, 2.27, 4.62). In male patients with HS, the risk of having psoriasis was 4.30-fold higher than male patients without HS (95% CI, 2.37, 7.78). Likewise, in an analysis including 3 cross-sectional studies, the risk of female HS patients having psoriasis was 3.94-fold higher than female HS-free patients (95% CI, 2.34, 6.63).ConclusionsThe co-occurrence of hidradenitis suppurativa and psoriasis can greatly increase the burden of the disease. Psoriasis could be one of the critical comorbidities of hidradenitis suppurativa and should be recommended for future screening and follow up. The association between the two diseases should be kept in mind in managing hidradenitis suppurativa patients. More prospective studies are needed to establish the true magnitude of the association between psoriasis and hidradenitis suppurativa.

Project description:ImportancePrevious studies suggest that depression and anxiety are common in patients with hidradenitis suppurativa (HS), more so than other dermatological conditions. Yet, to the authors' knowledge, no previous systematic review or meta-analysis has estimated the prevalence or odds ratio (OR) for those psychiatric comorbidities in this population.ObjectiveTo assess the prevalence and odds for depression and anxiety in patients with HS.Data sourcesFrom July 25 to September 30, 2018, observational studies investigating the prevalence and odds for depression and anxiety in adults with HS were systematically searched without language restriction from the inception of each database to July 25, 2018, in PubMed/MEDLINE, Embase, and PsycINFO databases. Searches used various configurations of the terms hidradenitis suppurativa; acne inversa; depressive disorder; depression; anxiety; anxiety disorders; phobia, social; suicide; and suicide, attempted. In addition, the reference lists of included references were screened manually.Study selectionTwo investigators independently screened references that measured prevalence rates and odds for depressive and anxiety symptoms in patients with HS. Of 136 unique references, 10 ultimately met inclusion criteria.Data extraction and synthesisRelevant data were extracted from eligible references. Authors were contacted to provide further information when necessary. Methodological quality of included studies was assessed through a modified version of the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale. Random-effects models were used to synthesize available evidence.Main outcomes and measuresPrevalence rates and ORs for depression and anxiety in adults with HS were the primary outcome measures. Heterogeneity across studies was assessed with the I2 statistic. Sources of heterogeneity were explored through subgroup and meta-regression analyses.ResultsTen studies comprising 40 307 participants with HS met inclusion criteria. The overall prevalence of depression was 16.9% (95% CI, 9.9%-27.2%). Heterogeneity was large. In the subgroup of studies that considered a clinical criteria-based diagnosis of depression, the prevalence of depression was 11.9% (95% CI, 4.9%-26.2%), compared with 26.8% (95% CI, 20.4%-34.5%) in studies that used a screening instrument. The methodological quality of included studies moderated those findings. The OR for depression in individuals with HS compared with individuals without HS was 1.84 (95% CI, 1.57-2.15). The prevalence of anxiety was 4.9% (95% CI, 1.7%-13.2%); there were insufficient data to determine an odds ratio for anxiety in persons with HS because 2 studies included a comparison group.Conclusions and relevanceThis systematic review and meta-analysis indicates that depression and anxiety are common comorbid conditions in patients with HS. Results suggest that the development of strategies to recognize and treat those psychiatric comorbidities in patients with HS is warranted.
