Abstract

Introduction: Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs) are complex, long-term inflammatory disorders of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract with an unknown etiology.  IBDs are made up of ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD), two idiopathic disorders. Though the exact cause, course, and severity of these disorders remain unknown, it is believed that a variety of factors, including genetic, environmental, immunological, physiological, psychological, and gut microbiome factors, interact to influence these aspects of the disease.


Aim of the Study: This present review discusses the diagnosis, treatment, and oversight of inflammatory bowel disease. It also highlights the importance of the interprofessional team in enhancing patient outcomes.


Methodology: The present review is a comprehensive research of PUBMED since the year 1991 to 2022.


Conclusion: Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is an idiopathic disease that results in an immunological response to the host's intestinal microbiota that is dysregulated. Research on variables influencing the onset and severity of IBDs has attracted a lot of attention in the last few decades. It is becoming more evident that a variety of factors, including genetic, environmental, psychological, autonomic, immunological, and gut microbiota, interact and contribute to the disease manifestations and persistence of inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs), even though the genesis of these illnesses is not fully understood. The role of genetic susceptibility and its probable co-dependency with other mediators, such as environmental, immune, and microbial factors, has been highlighted.
