Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Incidence rate and prevalence rate of IBD

    1. Annual incidence rate of Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis 2. Prevalence rate of Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis as of Dec 31, 2017.

    1986-2017 (up to 31 years)

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Clinical features of patients with IBD

    1986-2017 (up to 31 years)

Study Arms (1)

The Songpa-Kangdong cohort of IBD

Incident cases of IBD in the Songpa-Kangdong district, a well-defined administrative area in Seoul, the capital of Korea, beginning in 1986, when the first patient with IBD was diagnosed, until 2017. For the prevalent cases, the inhabitants with IBD at Dec 31, 2007 in the Songpa-Kangdong district are included.

Study Population

The study is performed in the Songpa-Kangdong district, a well-defined administrative area in Seoul, the capital of Korea, beginning in 1986, when the first patient with IBD was diagnosed, until 2017. The population of the study area was racially and ethnically homogeneous and was relatively stable in number.

You may qualify if:

  • Definite cases of CD and UC
  • Patients are diagnosed with CD if they meet at least 2 of the following criteria:
  • clinical history of abdominal pain, weight loss, malaise, diarrhea, and/or rectal bleeding
  • endoscopic findings of mucosal cobblestoning, linear ulceration, skip areas, or perianal disease
  • radiologic findings of stricture, fistula, mucosal cobblestoning, or ulceration
  • macroscopic appearance of bowel wall induration, mesenteric lymphadenopathy, and "creeping fat" at laparotomy
  • pathologic findings of transmural inflammation and/or epithelioid granulomas
  • Only patients who meet these criteria for at least 2 months are included.
  • Patients are diagnosed with UC only if all 3 of the following criteria are present
  • a typical history of diarrhea or blood and pus or both in the stool for longer than 4 weeks
  • a typical sigmoidoscopic or colonoscopic picture with diffusely granular, friable, or ulcerated mucosa without rectal sparing or skip lesions or radiological signs of characteristic continuous granular or ulcerated mucosa
  • characteristic histopathological signs of inflammation on biopsy

You may not qualify if:

  • IBD unclassified
  • Ethnic groups other than Korean
