Magnetically Guided Capsule Endoscopy and Magnetic Resonance Enterography in Children With Crohn's Disease: Manifestations and the Value of Assessing Disease Activity.

ABSTRACT: Objective: To investigate the value of magnetically guided capsule endoscopy (MGCE) and magnetic resonance enterography (MRE) in assessing the activity of pediatric Crohn's disease. Methods: Clinical data from 82 subjects with pediatric Crohn's disease, who underwent MGCE and MRE from October 2018 to March 2021 were analyzed retrospectively. Pairwise comparisons of several indexes, including MaRIA, CECDAI, PCDAI, and SES-CD, were performed by Spearman's rank correlation test and kappa consistency analysis. CECDAI and MaRIA values predicted whether patients were moderately or severely active (PCDAI ≥30) clinically by logistic regression analysis. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) quantified the evaluation value of moderate to severe activity of p
