This study aimed to identify disparities in the process of the diagnosis of IBD in Asian countries\/regions.Methods: In line with the 2020 Asian Organization for Crohn\u2019s and Colitis annual meeting, a multinational web-based survey about Asian physicians\u2019 perspectives on IBD was conducted. Results: A total of 384 Asian physicians (99 in China, 93 in Japan, 110 in Korea, and 82 in other Asian countries\/regions) treating IBD patients from 24 countries\/regions responded to the survey. Most respondents were gastroenterologists working in an academic teaching hospital. About half of them had more than 10 years of clinical experience in caring for patients with IBD. The European Crohn\u2019s Colitis Organisation guideline was used most commonly for the diagnosis of IBD except for Japanese physicians who preferred their own national guideline. The Mayo score and Crohn\u2019s Disease Activity Index were the most commonly used activity scoring systems for ulcerative colitis and Crohn\u2019s disease, respectively. Endoscopy, not surprisingly, was the main investigation in assessing the extent and activity of IBD. On the other hand, there were disparities across countries\/regions with regard to the favored modalities of small bowel and perianal evaluation of Crohn\u2019s disease, as well as the use of serologic markers. Conclusions: Results of the present survey revealed practical behaviors of Asian physicians in the diagnosis of IBD. Investigating the reasons for different diagnostic approaches among countries\/regions might help us develop Asian guidelines further.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.5217\/ir.2023.00012","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,7,27]],"date-time":"2023-07-27T20:55:42Z","timestamp":1690491342000},"page":"328-338","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.5217\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":9,"title":["Diagnosis of inflammatory bowel disease\u2013Asian perspectives: the results of a multinational web-based survey in the 8th Asian Organization for Crohn\u2019s and Colitis meeting"],"prefix":"10.5217","volume":"21","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8244-374X","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Han Hee","family":"Lee","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9974-1658","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Jae Jun","family":"Park","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0218-4136","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Bo-In","family":"Lee","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7091-0032","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Ida","family":"Hilmi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3227-1983","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Jose","family":"Sollano","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6388-6206","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Zhi Hua","family":"Ran","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"3168","reference":[{"key":"ref1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/s0140-6736(17)32448-0"},{"key":"ref2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.5217\/ir.2016.14.2.111"},{"key":"ref3","first-page":"623","volume-title":"Incidence and natural course of inflammatory bowel disease in Korea, 2006-2012: a nationwide population-based study","author":"Kim","year":"2015"},{"key":"ref4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1053\/j.gastro.2013.04.007"},{"key":"ref5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1038\/s41395-018-0233-2"},{"key":"ref6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.5217\/ir.2018.00096"},{"key":"ref7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.5217\/ir.2017.15.1.138"},{"key":"ref8","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.5217\/ir.2020.00121"},{"key":"ref9","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1159\/000446625"},{"key":"ref10","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/gutjnl-2012-303661"},{"key":"ref11","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1440-1746.2012.07150.x"},{"key":"ref12","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.5217\/ir.2016.14.3.224"},{"key":"ref13","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/ecco-jcc\/jjy113"},{"key":"ref14","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/ecco-jcc\/jjx008"},{"key":"ref15","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/ecco-jcc\/jjw168"},{"key":"ref16","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.14309\/ajg.0000000000000152"},{"key":"ref17","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1038\/ajg.2018.27"},{"key":"ref18","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/jgh.15185"},{"key":"ref19","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/jgh.12859"},{"key":"ref20","first-page":"1041","volume-title":"Cortisone in ulcerative colitis;
