Pediatric Researchers Collaborate to Build Largest Inflammatory Bowel Disease Registry
To build the registry, Emory researchers joined others involved in the National Pediatric IBD Consortium, to collect uniform data from January 2000 to November 2003 from a cohort of 1370 young IBD patients. The results, published in an article in the January issue of the Journal of Pediatrics, show that 54 percent of IBD patients were male and 86 percent were white. The largest percentage of IBD diagnosis (48 percent) was made in children ages six to 12, and more than 63 percent of children younger than eight had isolated colonic disease -- a disease limited to the large bowel or colon. Researchers also found that 29 percent of everyone in the registry had at least one family member with IBD.
