Summary: | Background The burden of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is rising globally, with substantial variation in levels and
trends of disease in different countries and regions. Understanding these geographical differences is crucial for

burden of IBD in 195 countries and territories between 1990 and 2017, based on data from the Global Burden of
Diseases, Injuries, and Risk Factors Study (GBD) 2017. |
