Beyond diagnosis: investigating hospital referral impact on biological treatment initiation, hospital admission, and surgery patterns in inflammatory bowel disease - a Danish population based study.

Based on the findings of this population-based study, we found no evidence that the referral area had a significant impact on the duration from diagnosis to the initiation of biological treatment, hospital admissions, or surgery. However, the data suggested that fewer patients with luminal Crohn's disease were referred to biologics from Non-Academic Hospitals.
