Brief Summary:

Introduction Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), which includes Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, is a chronic condition that affects the gastrointestinal tract and has a significant impact on patients' quality of life (QoL) and mental health(Barberio, Zamani et al. 2021). Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) has been recognized as a potential therapeutic approach to address the psychological comorbidities associated with IBD(Seaton, Hudson et al. 2024). However, the effectiveness of CBT in IBD is not solely a clinical issue but is also intertwined with cultural factors that can influence treatment outcomes(Naeem 2019). The effectiveness of CBT in IBD is not solely a clinical issue but is also intertwined with cultural factors that can influence treatment outcomes . This has implications for the delivery of CBT in IBD care, as cultural beliefs and values can affect help-seeking behaviors and responses to treatment. Cultural factors are integral to the successful implementation of CBT in IBD care(Hinton and Patel 2017, Naeem, Sajid et al. 2023). Further research is needed to understand how cultural adaptations can enhance the efficacy of CBT for IBD patients from diverse backgrounds. It is essential to consider cultural nuances in the development and delivery of CBT to ensure that it is both effective and acceptable to patients with IBD across different cultures. Objective: To identify gaps in the current understanding of the role of culture in CBT for IBD, including the variety of cultural contexts and IBD populations studied . To provide insights that can guide clinical practice in offering culturally competent CBT to IBD patients and inform policy decisions regarding mental health services for diverse populations with IBD .
