Abstract

Disease-related stigmatization is present in IBD, with a substantial proportion of patients reporting that they perceive discriminatory attitudes or behaviors from others because of their IBD status. These perceptions are associated with poor outcomes. However, stigma perceptions are not well studied in patients from underrepresented racial and ethnic minority (URM) groups. As such, we aim to assess stigma perceptions in URM IBD patients and their relationship to Health Related Quality of Life (HRQoL).
