简要总结
First-degree relatives of people with inflammatory bowel disease ("IBD," including Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis) have an increased risk for developing IBD themselves. This study will follow unaffected first-degree relatives (who do not have IBD) over time to understand if their behaviors, diet, and biomarkers for IBD can help predict who gets IBD and if IBD can be prevented in these high-risk individuals. Participants will be asked once per year to complete a questionnaire and have their blood, stool, and urine collected. The anticipated length of the study (registry) is approximately 10 years or longer. Parts of this study, such as the questionnaires and stool and urine collection, may be done from home, while other parts, such as the blood draw, will need to be done from Massachusetts General Hospital.

Number of participants who develop inflammatory bowel disease
时间窗: Through study completion (an anticipated 10 years)
Participants will be queried annually on questionnaires for the development of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), including Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, or IBD-U (self-reported outcome). Participants will then be asked for permission to obtain additional medical records, which will be reviewed by study investigators to confirm diagnosis of IBD.
