There is a scarcity of data on the influence of sex, race, insurance status on mortality, hospital length of stay (LOS), and total hospital charges for patients with ulcerative colitis (UC) and acute myocardial infarction (AMI) versus patients with Crohn’s disease and AMI. Previous studies have identified that patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) have a lower incidence of AMI compared to the general population, but Ulcerative Colitis has not been compared to Crohn’s Disease for AMI. The aim of this study was to identify risk factors in a national population cohort (in the USA) admitted to hospital between 2015 and 2017.
