Table 2.
Information on smoking habits. Only twin pairs concordant for smoking habits were used in the smoking analysis. Four twin pairs were excluded because one twin was a smoker and the other was not. Only twin pairs including UC patients were used for comparisons between smokers and non-smokers [16 pairs] due to the lack of twin pairs including CD patients and concordant smokers.
| CD | UC | |
|---|---|---|
| Twins both smokers | 0 | 5 |
| Twins both non-smokers | 4 | 11 |
| Twins discordant for smoking | 2 | 2 |
UC, ulcerative colitis; CD, Crohn’s disease.
Numbers in bold indicate twin pairs used in smoker VS non-smoker comparison.
