Official Title: Risk Factors for Microscopic Colitis
Brief Summary: Microscopic colitis is a common cause of watery diarrhea, particularly in the elderly. Although the incidence is comparable to ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease, the etiology is unknown. Understanding the etiology of microscopic colitis is an important step in developing logical interventions to decrease the burden from microscopic colitis. This research could provide critical insights into the etiology of this poorly studied condition.
