JCC: Preterm birth, mode of delivery, and type of infant feeding are not associated with pediatric inflammatory bowel disease risk

Globally, the incidence of childhood -onset inflammatory bowel disease (PIBD) is on the rise, with children in Scotland having the highest incidence of PIBD in the UK (IBD diagnosis younger than 16 years), as evidenced by four decades of epidemiological data, The incidence of pediatric Crohn's disease has increased ninefold
