Adipokine Resistin Levels at Time of Pediatric Crohn Disease Diagnosis Predict Escalation to Biologic Therapy
Jacob A. Kurowski,Jean-Paul Achkar,Rishi Gupta,Iulia Barbur,Tracey L. Bonfield,Sarah Worley,Erick M. Remer,Claudio Fiocchi,Satish Viswanath,Marsha Kay +9 more
TL;DR: Serum resistin levels at diagnosis of pediatric CD predict the escalation to biologic therapy at 12 months, independent of VAT volumes, and the utility of resistin as a predictive biomarker in pediatric CD is suggested.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

Iulia Barbur,Jacob A. Kurowski,Kaustav Bera,Rajat Thawani,Jean-Paul Achkar,Claudio Fiocchi,Marsha Kay,Rishi Gupta,Satish Viswanath +8 more
TL;DR: A fully-automated algorithm to segment and quantitatively characterize VAT and SQF via routinely acquired diagnostic bowel MRIs is presented, indicating that quantitative radiomic characterization of visceral fat regions on bowel MRIS may be highly relevant for guiding therapeutic interventions in Crohn’s Disease.
