- Abstract
In Reply to (Meta-analysis on obesity and risk of inflammatory bowel disease: re-analysis is needed) The third issue raised refers to the association between BMI, as a continuous variable, and IBD in a dose-response analysis according to two mentioned studies.[[6], [8]] Indeed, we used the data of these studies in our meta-analysis. With regard to the dose-response analysis and continuous variable, we did not perform a linear dose-response analysis in our paper, instead, and respectfully, we conducted non-linear dose-response analyses.
