    Machine learning models were developed to identify inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) cases in administrative data in the Netherlands.

  • 2

    The prevalence of IBD in the Netherlands was found to be 577.6 per 100,000 as of December 31, 2020, with regional variations.

  • 3

    The incidence of IBD was stable at 20.1 per 100,000 in 2020, indicating a slower increase in prevalence than previously expected.

  • 4

    Mortality rates for IBD patients rose to 11.6 per 1,000 in 2020, higher than the general population's rate of 9.5.

  • 5

    The random forest model demonstrated the highest accuracy for identifying IBD cases, achieving an AUC of 0.97.
