Racial and Ethnic Patterns Observed in Inflammatory Bowel Disease Prevalence, Clinical Burden, and Healthcare Resource Utilization in the United States: Findings from an Administrative Claims Database.
Observational study in Advances in therapy, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
introductionInflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic, immune-mediated gastrointestinal disorder comprised of Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC). Real-world data on racial differences in disease burden, treatment patterns, and healthcare resource utilization (HCRU) remain limited.
methodsThe retrospective observational study was conducted using Optum's de-identified Clinformatics
resultsA total of 271,059 patients included in the analysis were predominantly White (76.6%) followed by Black (7.9%), Hispanic (6.1%), and Asian (2.6%). IBD prevalence rose from 0.5% (2010) to 2.2% (2022). In 2022, prevalence was highest among White (2.5%) followed by Black (1.9%), Asian (1.4%), and Hispanic individuals (1.3%). Among patients with CD and UC, respectively, EIM prevalence rose from 38.4% and 31.5% in 2016 to 57.5% and 43.2% in 2022. Corticosteroids and biologics were prescribed to 38.8% and 52.8% of patients with CD and UC post-diagnosis, respectively. IBD-related HCRU increased after diagnosis, particularly among acute care patients, and was highest in Black individuals.
conclusionThe results highlight an increased prevalence of IBD among patients from different racial and ethnic backgrounds. The study further provides insights into the IBD-related outcomes, treatment use, and HCRU patterns among diverse racial and ethnic groups and underlines the present unmet need for further research.
