Összefoglaló szövege

Introduction: Microscopic colitis (MC) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the large bowel characterized by watery diarrhea, substantially decreasing the patient's quality of life. Scarce data suggest what the risk factors of MC are.
Aims: We aimed to assess MC’s lifestyle and medical risk factors.
Method: Our protocol was prospectively registered with PROSPERO (CRD42022286624). We systematically searched three medical databases from inception to the 18th of December 2021 (Pubmed, Embase, and Cochrane). Cohort, case-control, and cross-sectional studies reporting on the number of risk factors in MC patients compared to controls with or without a histopathological examination were included. We used the random-effect model to calculate pooled odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs). The risk of bias assessment was made with the aid of the QUIPS tool.
Results: The systematic search yielded 7174 articles, and 43 were eligible for the study. Investigating lifestyle factors, we did not find a significant difference between MC patients with below- and above-high school education. Current smoking was associated with a 1.64 odd (CI:1.06–2.52), while past smoking had a 1.28 odd (CI: 0.91–1.81) of MC compared to both types of controls. Regarding alcohol consumption, we could only compare the controls who weren’t histopathologically examined, and it showed no significant association with MC.
During the medical risk factors examination compared to the overall control group, we found a twofold increased chance of MC diagnosis in the case of the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) use (OR =2.07, CI: 1.31–3.27); however, the odds of MC were not significantly increased neither in the case of proton pump inhibitor use (OR =1.59, CI: 0.65–3.90) nor in the case of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor use (OR =2.10, CI: 0.73–5.98).
Most articles were deemed moderate or high risk of bias due to the lack of assessment of confounding factors.
Conclusion: Our data demonstrate a 64% increase in the odds of MC with current smoking, while NSAID use is associated with a twofold risk for MC. Further prospective studies with longer follow-ups are needed to further investigate these associations.
Funding: There was no funding.
