Résumé

Environmental exposures play a key role in inflammatory bowel disease pathogenesis. The incidence of IBD has increased in the Arabic Peninsula with a disease phenotype that seems to differ from that of Western countries. We aimed to examine the association between environmental exposures and the risk of IBD in Saudi Arabia.
