Methods The Cochrane Library, Pubmed, EMbase, CNKI, China biological medicine (CBM) , WanFang were searched and the randomised controlled trials (RCTs) related to cognitive-behavioral intervention for IBD data was collected. The RevMan 5.3 was used in statistical analysis. Results A total of 12 RCTs were enrolled in the study. Results showed that cognitive behavior therapy could improve patients' life quality [WMD=7.78, 95%CI (3.30, 12.27) , P=0.000 7], relieve anxiety [SMD=-0.47, 95%CI (-0.78, -0.16) , P=0.01]and depression [SMD=-2.48, 95%CI (-3.13, -1.83) , P 0.05) . Conclusions In this systematic review, cognitive-behavioral intervention can improve life quality of patients with IBD and can relieve anxiety and depression of patients with IBD in the short term but with no effects in the long term.
