Machine learning classification of the epidemiologic stages of inflammatory bowel disease across geography and time

Epidemiologic stages of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) have been proposed: 1. Emergence (low incidence and prevalence); 2. Acceleration in Incidence (rapidly rising incidence, low prevalence); and 3. Compounding Prevalence (stabilizing incidence, rapidly rising prevalence). To date, these stages have been theoretical without quantified definitions of incidence and prevalence.
