December 28, 2020 – Using genetic data from diverse populations could help researchers develop better risk prediction scores for inflammatory bowel diseases, such as Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis, according to a study published in Gastroenterology.
Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) are complex diseases for which genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified over 200 significant specific locations of genes on chromosomes, called loci. Researchers noted that substantial…
