The purpose of this study is to evaluate how long a participant keeps taking guselkumab or continues with their treatment plan without stopping (treatment persistence) in participants with moderate to severe Crohn's disease (CD) or ulcerative colitis (UC) in real-world setting. CD and UC are inflammatory bowel diseases, a group of inflammatory conditions of the colon and small intestine.

Time frame: Up to Week 96
Persistence with guselkumab treatment is defined as time at which the next infusion should have taken place for a participant after their last scheduled infusion. It will be used to measure the guselkumab persistence in participants.
Time frame: At Weeks 0 (baseline) 1, 2, 4, 8 and 12
Number of participants with early responses to guselkumab measured using bowel urgency will be assessed via participant diaries.
Time frame: At Weeks 0 (baseline), 1, 2, 4, 8 and 12

An adverse event is any untoward medical occurrence in a participant administered a medicinal product based on appropriate medical judgment. An AE does not necessarily have a causal relationship with the treatment. An adverse event is considered drug-related if there is at least a reasonable possibility that the study drug contributed to the event.
Time frame: Up to Week 96
A serious adverse event, is any untoward medical occurrence or any adverse drug reaction that at any dose: results in death, is life threatening (the participant was at risk of death at the time of the event; it does not refer to an event that hypothetically might have caused death if it were more severe), requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, is a congenital anomaly/birth defect, is a suspected transmission of any infectious agent via a medicinal product and is medically important.
