Our team is exploring abdominal pain in inflammatory bowel disease. We have collected patient-reported data regarding abdominal pain symptoms as well as symptoms of fatigue, anxiety, depression, and sleep.
When examining symptoms based on sex/gender, we found that cisgender men and transgender and/or gender diverse individuals have greater PROMIS abdominal pain than cisgender women (p=0.02).
