Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Women aged 18–50 with a confirmed diagnosis of Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis recorded in the EPIMAD registry who live in the Somme and have had at least one pregnancy.

Probably not a fit

Women who have never been pregnant, who are not included in the EPIMAD registry, or who live outside the Somme region are unlikely to be included or directly benefit from this analysis.

What this trial studies

This is a retrospective observational analysis using the EPIMAD registry to describe IBD course before, during, and after pregnancy in 945 women. Investigators will cross-link IBD history with pregnancy, postpartum, and breastfeeding data to count flares and timing of disease activity. Eligible participants are women aged 18–50 diagnosed with Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis between 1988 and 2018 who lived in the Somme and had at least one pregnancy. No interventional treatments are given as part of this project; it uses existing registry records from CHU Amiens.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, the findings could help clinicians better predict flare risk during pregnancy and tailor monitoring and treatment plans for pregnant people with IBD.

How similar studies have gone: Previous cohort and registry studies have examined pregnancy and IBD with mixed but informative results, so this work adds regional and longitudinal data rather than testing a wholly novel approach.
