Crohn's Disease and Ulcerative Colitis From Epidemiology and Immunobiology to a Rational Diagnostic and Therapeutic Approach /

The conditions of Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis are excellent examples of  how the exponential growth of knowledge in biomedical science can make a remarkable impact on clinical practice and patient's quality of life. It has led to the development of unique novel immunomodulatory...
