Risk of Inflammatory Bowel Disease Following Hospital-Treated Infections and Modulatory Role of Host Genetics to Support a Multi-Hit Pathogenesis Model.

If hospital-treated infections raise later IBD risk—especially in people with certain immune-related genetic variants—this supports a multi-hit model of IBD and could eventually help identify higher-risk individuals...
