More than 80% of ulcerative colitis patients have the lining tissue of the inner rectum inflamed or has proctosigmoiditis, and less than 20% of patients haveextensive colitis. The case of UC has risenworldwide in the recent few decades, particularly in growing countries. The high-risk factors are family history, gender, race, and environmental factors contributing are smoking, infection taking Antibiotics, and NSAIDs. In 2013, Over 350,000 new cases of ulcerative colitis and over 125,000 Patients deaths were reported in the USA. Ulcerative colitis is different from Crohn's disease.
