Higher Life's Essential 8 score is associated with reduced risk of related surgery and all-cause mortality among 3232 individuals with inflammatory bowel disease in a longitudinal cohort study.
Article in International journal of surgery (London, England), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
backgroundPrevious studies indicated discrete lifestyle health metrics that benefit cardiovascular health are associated with better prognosis in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), while evidence regarding the comprehensive impact of cardiovascular health remains limited. This study aimed to investigate the association between the overall cardiovascular health indicator, Life's Essential 8 (LE8), and the adverse outcomes of IBD. MATERIALS AND
methodsWe included 3232 IBD participants recruited from the UK Biobank between 2006 and 2010. LE8 encompasses 8 metrics, including physical activity, diet, sleep health, nicotine exposure, body mass index, blood glucose, blood lipids, and blood pressure. The adverse outcomes studied in our study included IBD-related surgery and all-cause mortality. Hazard ratios (HRs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for the strength of the associations between LE8 score and IBD-related surgery as well as all-cause mortality were calculated using Cox proportional hazard models.
resultsOver a mean (standard deviation) follow-up of 12.60 (2.74) years and 13.17 (1.89) years, 282 IBD-related surgery and 259 death events were recorded. Ulcerative colitis (UC) patients with a high LE8 score showed decreased risk of IBD-related surgery (HR 0.47, 95% CI 0.26, 0.87) and all-cause mortality (HR 0.47, 95% CI 0.25, 0.87), in comparison to those with a low LE8 score. No significant associations were observed between LE8 score and the risk of IBD-related surgery and all-cause mortality among Crohn's disease (CD) in the primary analyses.
conclusionParticipants with a higher LE8 score showed decreased risk of IBD-related surgery and all-cause mortality among UC, but not CD, underscoring the significance of implementing LE8 as a management approach in improving the prognosis of UC.
