Background: Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis have a complex genetic background. We
assessed the risk for both the development and severity of the disease by combining …

OBJECTIVES: Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD)—Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative
colitis (UC)—are chronic gastrointestinal inflammatory disorders with a complex genetic …

Ulcerative colitis is a chronic, relapsing inflammatory condition of the gastrointestinal tract
with a complex genetic and environmental etiology. In an effort to identify genetic variation …

Epidemiological and clinical studies have suggested that the pathogenesis of inflammatory
bowel disease (IBD) is strongly influenced by genetic predisposition. Beyond the limitations …

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic intestinal disorder, with two main types:
Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC), whose molecular pathology is not well …

Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs) are complex, multifactorial disorders that comprise
Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC). Genome-wide association studies have …

The idiopathic inflammatory bowel diseases, Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis
(UC), are chronic, frequently disabling diseases of the intestines. Segregation analyses, twin …

BACKGROUND & AIMS: Identifying shared and disease-specific susceptibility loci for
Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC) would help define the biologic relationship …

Inflammatory bowel diseases, which include Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, affect
several million individuals worldwide. Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis are complex …

The two main phenotypes of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD)—Crohn's disease (CD) and
ulcerative colitis (UC)—are chronic intestinal inflammatory disorders with a complex genetic …
