An epidemiological study of Inflammatory Bowel Diseases (IBD) is being scheduled in Abu Dhabi as everyone has yet to fully understand the mystery of these set of conditions, which, among its complications, if undiagnosed or misdiagnosed is colorectal cancer.
“If all goes as planned, we will expand this venture further to include the entire country,” Dr. Talha Aziz Malik told Gulf Today recently, adding that while many inconsistencies in collated studies have to be corrected, IBD rates in other parts of the globe, other than among the Caucasians in North America, Europe and Australia, have spiked tremendously.
