Predictors of Long-term Clinical and Endoscopic Remission in Children With Crohn Disease Treated With Infliximab
Conclusions:
Post induction FC combined with wPCDAI can predict 1-year clinical and endoscopic response to IFX in pediatric CD. FC shows a moderate correlation with SES-CD, whereas wPCDAI has a good concordance with endoscopic remission or severe disease, but not with mild and moderate disease.
