Elderly onset IBD accounted for 11% of incidences. 167 countries increased IBD incidence rate, with rates rising in female patients (APC: +0.06%) and the elderly (APC: +0.14%) but stable in male patients and the overall population.<\/p>\n Discussion: Although the global burden of IBD has decreased overall, it has increased in female patients and the elderly.<\/p>\nAbstract<\/h2>\n
