Irritable bowel syndrome in twins: genes and environment.

Gut - 1 Dec 2006

Bengtson M-B, Rønning T, Vatn M H, Harris J R

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Both environmental and genetic factors may contribute to irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Nutrition in fetal life, an early environmental factor, seems to influence the development of chronic diseases later in life, such as coronary heart disease, hypertension, and non-insulin diabetes. This population based twin study evaluated the association between intrauterine growth, measured by weight...
