| Core Tip |
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) was previously regarded as a Western disease; however, its incidence is increasing in the East, with a different epidemiological pattern. This nationwide cohort study analyzed claims data from South Korea between 2010 and 2018. The incidence of ulcerative colitis increased continuously, particularly among younger demographic groups, during this period, whereas the incidence of Crohn’s disease remained stable from 2014. Additionally, in this period, hospitalization and surgery rates for IBD decreased as the use of immunomodulators and biologics increased. |
