| Abstract |
Erythema nodosum and pyoderma gangrenosum are the most common cutaneous manifestations in inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). We conducted the current study to assess the cumulative prevalence of erythema nodosum and pyoderma gangrenosum in patients with IBD and to appraise their association with demographic, clinical, and prognostic factors related to IBD. Between 2000 and 2005, data for all patients with IBD at our gastroenterology department were prospectively and systematically collected using a standardized protocol. Among 2402 patients (1521 diagnosed with Crohn disease [63.3%] and 744 with ulcerative colitis [31.0%]), 140 (5.8%) had at least 1 skin manifestation. The most frequent dermatologic symptoms were erythema nodosum (4.0%) and pyoderma gangrenosum (0.75%). In multivariate analyses, erythema nodosum was significantly and independently associated with a diagnosis of Crohn disease (p < 0.001), female sex (p < 0.001), eye and joint involvement (p < 0.001), and pyoderma gangrenosum (p < 0.0001). Among patients with Crohn disease, erythema nodosum was associated with isolated colonic involvement (p = 0.0001). Pyoderma gangrenosum was significantly and independently associated with black African origin (p = 0.003), familial history of ulcerative colitis (p = 0.0005), uninterrupted pancolitis as the initial location of IBD (p = 0.03), permanent stoma (p = 0.002), eye involvement (p = 0.001), and erythema nodosum (p < 0.0001). It is noteworthy that the association between pyoderma gangrenosum and permanent stoma persisted after exclusion of patients with peristomal pyoderma gangrenosum (p = 0.07). In conclusion, neither erythema nodosum nor pyoderma gangrenosum was significantly associated with the severity criteria in IBD; however, their occurrence may reflect a peculiar phenotype among affected patients. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 13. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 16 November 2022.
All research outputs
#2,721,140
of 25,371,288 outputs
Outputs from Medicine (Wolters Kluwer)
#816
of 16,347 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#7,826
of 95,711 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Medicine (Wolters Kluwer)
#2
of 6 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,371,288 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 89th percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 16,347 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 4.7. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 94% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 95,711 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 91% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 6 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has scored higher than 4 of them.
