Am J Gastroenterol

December 2024

Mount Sinai Centre for Inflammatory Bowel Disease, Division of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, University of Toronto, Toronto, Ontario, CANADA.

Background: Children born to women with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) may have increased healthcare utilization in early life due to genetic susceptibilities and exposure to inflammation in utero, though this has not been robustly evaluated. We aimed to characterize healthcare use between these groups.

Methods: We accessed province-wide health administrative databases to identify children born to women with and without IBD between 2002-2019.
