Remission duration according to dietary adherence in paediatric mild to moderate Crohn's disease treated with CDED + PEN.
Przeglad gastroenterologiczny

Remission duration according to dietary adherence in paediatric mild to moderate Crohn's disease treated with CDED + PEN.

Dietary therapy (CDED + PEN) was associated with longer remission when families adhered well; since adherence varies, support from a dietitian matters for keeping children in remission.
