“…(33), realizado en el área de Caláis, parece dar mayor importancia a los factores ambientales, al descubrir una alta incidencia de parejas sexuales con EIIC, no diagnosticados antes de la convivencia. No obstante, ninguno de estos datos de familias, han aportado datos concluyentes de que los patrones familiares sean determinados por factores genéticos en lugar de ambientales (15,22,(34)(35)(36)(37). Fenotipo (Extensión).…”

“…Polito et al (18) also showed that stratification for age at diagnosis of CD is associated to age-specific phenotypes. Concordance rates of 56-86% for location and 49-82% for behavior were reported in parent-child pairs and sibling pairs (14,17). There is no consistent difference in location and behavior of CD between familial and non-familial (sporadic) disease.…”

“…CD patients have an affected first-degree relative with CD in 2.2-16.2% of cases and with IBD in 5.2-22.5% of cases (13). The concordance rate of affected siblings was reported to be as high as 60-80% (14).…”

“…7 Epidemiological evidence indicates that genetic factors determine the clinical phenotype in both CD and UC, with high concordance for age of debut, location and behavior of disease in multiple affected families. 8,9 The precise clinical phenotype of a patient depends most probably on the effect of a limited number of genes. Although the etiology of CD is unknown, a breakdown of tolerance to luminal bacteria in the digestive tract of genetically susceptible hosts has been proposed.…”
