What this trial is about
The NEPHRO-IBD study is a multicenter prospective observational study designed to evaluate the prevalence of renal dysfunction and renal complications in adult patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) compared with individuals from the general population. Although extraintestinal manifestations are common in IBD, renal involvement remains relatively underrecognized and insufficiently studied. The study will recruit approximately 6,000 participants, including 3,000 patients with confirmed IBD (Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis) and 3,000 individuals without IBD serving as a control group. Participants will undergo routine clinical assessment, including laboratory tests, urinalysis with measurement of the albumin-to-creatinine ratio (ACR), and imaging evaluation of the kidneys and urinary tract. Disease activity in patients with IBD will be assessed using validated clinical indices. The study will also evaluate the relationship between renal dysfunction and disease activity, medications used in IBD treatment, and comorbidities. The results of this study are expected to improve the understanding of renal complications in patients with IBD and support earlier identification and management of kidney disease in this population.
