*All covariates in the table were included within the adjusted analysis. Abbreviations: *HR, Hazard ratio; *CI, confidence interval; *IBD, inflammatory bowel disease; *CD, Crohn’s disease *UC, ulcerative colitis; *Depression, depression diagnostic and/or depressive symptom code; *Anxiety, anxiety diagnostic and/or anxiety symptom code; *ADM, antidepressant medication; *IMD, Index of Multiple Deprivation; IMD 1 represents the least deprived and IMD 5 the most deprived. IMD data are available only for individual’s resident in England.

Bold values indicate statistical significance.
