Prognostic models for predicting postoperative recurrence in Crohn's disease: a systematic review and critical appraisal.

ABSTRACT:

Background and aims

Prophylaxis of postoperative recurrence is an intractable problem for clinicians and patients with Crohn's disease. Prognostic models are effective tools for patient stratification and personalised management. This systematic review aimed to provide an overview and critically appraise the existing models for predicting postoperative recurrence of Crohn's disease.

Methods

Systematic retrieval was performed using PubMed and Web of Science in January 2022. Original articles on prognostic models for predicting postoperative recurrence of Crohn's disease were included in the analysis. The risk of bias was assessed using the Prediction Model Risk of Bias Assessment (PROBAST) tool. This study was registered with the International Prospective Register of Systemat
