Labor Market Participation and Income in Patients With Inflammatory Bowel Disease Onset Before Young Adulthood-The Role of Disease Severity and Mental Health.
Article in Journal of Crohn's & colitis, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND
aimsOnly few studies have examined the socioeconomic consequences of being diagnosed with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) in childhood or youth. Disease severity has been linked to lower earnings, but little attention has been paid to comorbid mental health conditions. The aim is to examine labor market participation (LMP) and income in patients with IBD onset in childhood or youth and examine how disease severity and mental health conditions affect LMP.
methodsIn this register-based cohort study, we included patients with IBD onset before 25 years of age and matched comparators. We estimated the relative risk (RR) of having low LMP and the median yearly income from ages 26 to 30. RR of low LMP was also assessed in subgroups of patients based on disease severity (severe/nonsevere) and mental health conditions (yes/no).
resultsA total of 3398 patients with IBD and 28 207 comparators were included. Overall, patients with IBD more often had low LMP (16.4% vs 14.4% in comparators), but slightly higher income (median yearly income difference at age 30: 1141 Euro [95% CI, 483-1798]). In subgroup analyses, only patients with severe IBD had a higher risk of low LMP (RR: 1.46 [95% CI, 1.23-1.72]), whereas patients with nonsevere IBD did not. Among patients with severe disease and mental health conditions, 46% had low LMP (RR: 5.03 [95% CI, 4.38-5.78]).
conclusionsPatients with IBD more often had low LMP, but their income was not affected. The subgroup of patients with severe disease and mental health conditions had the highest risk of low LMP.
