    Snippet: BACKGROUND: Great efforts by the scientific community are rapidly expanding the evidence on the clinical interplay between Covid-19 and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). AIMS: We performed a systematic review of the literature on published Covid-19 cases occurring in patients with IBD. METHODS: PubMed Central/Medline and Embase were systemically searched for records up to May 31, 2020. RESULTS: 13 cohort studies and 5 single case reports were included in the qualitative synthesis.

    Document: BACKGROUND: Great efforts by the scientific community are rapidly expanding the evidence on the clinical interplay between Covid-19 and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). AIMS: We performed a systematic review of the literature on published Covid-19 cases occurring in patients with IBD. METHODS: PubMed Central/Medline and Embase were systemically searched for records up to May 31, 2020. RESULTS: 13 cohort studies and 5 single case reports were included in the qualitative synthesis. A cumulative number of approximately 800 patients with IBD and Covid-19 were identified. The case fatality rate ranged from 0% to 20.0%. Overall, immunomodulators and biologics were not associated with higher risk of Covid-19 or with negative outcomes, while the the use of systemic corticosteroids was related to worse prognosis in some studies. CONCLUSIONS: This systematic review highlighted two main points that may help clinicians dealing with IBD in reassuring their patients: (1) patients with IBD do not seem to be at higher risk of being infected by SARS-COV-2 than the general population; (2) in case of Covid-19, treatment with immunomodulators or biologics is not associated with worse prognosis, while systemic steroids are suspected to be potentially detrimental, even if more data are needed to confirm this point.
