“…The Oceania continent shows a remarkable high ranking for the incidence and prevalence of CD. Previous reports from 1980s relating to New Zealand show a very low incidence of 1.75 per 10 5 for CD [7,16,23,28].…”

“…A similar trend was seen in France, where the incidence among paediatric patients increased from 3.5/100,000 in 1990 to 5.2/100,000 in 2005 [19] . Large changes have also been demonstrated in Australian children in recent years [17] . Phavichitr et al [44] in a retrospective study of CD amongst Australian children in the state of Victoria, reported that incidence of paediatric CD had increased almost 10 fold over 3 decades.…”

“…In the USA the incidence rate of CD has almost doubled in the period in between 1991 to 2002 [37] . Moreover, recent reports from Australasian studies also indicate an increase in rates of CD [17] . In Israel, where CD rates are already considered high, a rapid rise in rates of the disease has also been described [38] .…”

“…However, recent reports indicate that the disease is rapidly increasing among Asians [29] , and especially in families migrating from Asia to the West [30] . On the other hand, the disease is reported less commonly in the indigenous populations resident in Canada, Australia and New Zealand [17] .

Crohn disease is a chronic inflammatory disorder that primarily affects the alimentary tract. It is an increasingly global health concern, with recent data indicating rising rates across many countries in the world, along with a growing prevalence in childhood. Numerous reports indicate that Crohn disease is no longer confined to Western countries, with many reports of diagnosis in other regions including less developed nations. Changes in dietary patterns, along with other environmental factors, appear to account for these recent changes in the patterns of Crohn disease epidemiology. The objective of this work was to review current available literature concerning the epidemiology of Crohn disease and to consider the possible roles of environmental factors that may be implicated in these changing patterns. Widespread data indicates increasing incidence of Crohn disease in many countries across the world. The reasons for these rapid changes in the epidemiology of Crohn disease are not clearly understood. However, environmental changes appear to the most important factors for these recent changes.

The role of vitamin D in reducing gastrointestinal disease risk and assessment of individual dietary intake needs: Focus on genetic and genomic technologies

With the endogenous formation of vitamin D being significantly curtailed because of public awareness of skin cancer dangers, attention is turning to dietary sources. Cumulative evidence has implicated vitamin D deficiency in increasing susceptibility to various gastrointestinal disorders, including colorectal cancer, inflammatory bowel diseases, diverticulitis, and irritable bowel syndrome. There is also reason to suggest adjunct vitamin D therapy for such diseases. Although there is justification for increasing vitamin D intake overall, optimal intakes will vary among individuals. Genomic technologies have revealed several hundreds of genes associated with vitamin D actions. The nature of these genes emphasizes the potentially negative implications of modulating vitamin D intakes in the absence of complementary human genetic and genomic data, including information on the gut microbiome. However, we are not yet in a position to apply this information. Genomic data (transcriptomics, metabolomics, proteomics, and metagenomics) could provide evidence that vitamin D sufficiency has been achieved. We suggest that there is an increasingly strong case for considering the more widespread use of vitamin D fortified foods and/or dietary supplements to benefit gastrointestinal health. However, intake levels might beneficially be informed by personalized genetic and genomic information, for optimal disease prevention and maintenance of remission.
