Concordance of Inflammatory Bowel Disease among Danish Twins: Results of a Nationwide Study

1 Jan 2000

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Previous studies have shown an increased risk of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) among relatives of patients with Crohn disease and ulcerative colitis. In the present study the probandwise concordance rates for ulcerative colitis and Crohn disease among mono- and dizygotic twins were estimated. Further we aimed to evaluate whether smoking habits might influence the concordance, and to look for...
