Natural history of children with mild Crohn’s disease

Figure 1 Probability over time of avoiding treatment escalation in children with mild Crohn’s disease. The X axis represents the number of months after the first 2 years of diagnosis. The Y axis represents the survival probability or the time to either escalation in therapy (i.e., immunomodulators/biologics) and/or surgery. After 6 years of additional follow-up the probability of avoiding escalation to immunomodulators/biologics in selected patients was 70%.
