The NEPHRO-IBD study is investigating how often kidney problems occur in people with inflammatory bowel disease (Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis) compared to the general population. Researchers will follow about 6,000 adults—half with inflammatory bowel disease and half without—to measure kidney function through blood tests, urine tests, and ultrasound imaging. This research aims to better understand a complication of inflammatory bowel disease that doctors don't yet fully recognize or study.
People with inflammatory bowel disease can develop kidney problems as a side effect of their condition or its treatments, but doctors don't know how common this really is or what causes it. This study will help fill that gap by collecting clear data on kidney health in this patient population.

You will visit the study center every three to six months for about two years. At each visit, you'll have blood drawn and provide a urine sample, and you'll have an ultrasound of your kidneys and urinary system. The researchers will measure kidney function using these tests and track any changes over time. There are no medications to take—this is purely an observation study to understand kidney health in people with and without inflammatory bowel disease.
