Trends in the epidemiology of inflammatory bowel disease in Colombia by demographics and region using a nationally representative claims database and characterization of inflammatory bowel disease phenotype in a case series of Colombian patients

Abstract: The incidence of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is on the rise in Latin America. The aims of this study were to examine epidemiologic trends of IBD in Colombia by demographics, region, urbanicity, and to describe the IBD phenotype in a large well-characterized Colombian cohort. We used a national database of 33 million adults encompassing 97.6% of the Colombian population in order to obtain epidemiologic trends of IBD using International Classification of Diseases 10codes for adults with ulcerati… Show more

“…[11] Subsequently, the frequency of CD increased from 47.1% to 52.9% for UC. [12,13,24,25] In the Dominican Republic, CD predominated at 61.0%; in Peru, CD had a frequency of 53.1%, which increased from a previously published study that showed a frequency of 23% for CD and 77% for UC. [26] UC was predominant in Venezuela (78.2%), Cuba (69.9%), and Mexico (78.6%).…”

“…[ 11 ] In Colombia, from 2001 to 2009, 80.7% had UC, and 15.8% had CD. [ 12 ] The incidence of UC reported in Panama was 1.2/100,000 per year, with no reported cases of CD, and in Argentina 2.2/100,000 per year, with only one case identified with CD. [ 13 ] In Chile, the estimated prevalence has not been determined, but a descriptive study reported that approximately 71% of IBD cases have UC and 27% have CD.…”

“…Thus, the incidence rate of CD with age increases sharply and reaches its maximum values. Trends in the incidence of CD in various studied groups of the population make it possible to assess and characterize the general trend of growth or decline in indicators in different regions of the world [10]. Therefore, in Kazakhstan, the incidence rate for the research years in the studied groups had a pronounced tendency to decrease.…”
