Logistic regression analyses. Analyses were performed as complete case analyses; 346 patients were included in multivariable analyses [n = 170 risk of frailty, n = 76 any infection]. Frailty screening by Geriatric 8 Questionnaire, ≤14 points = risk of frailty. Biochemical disease activity: C-reactive protein ≥10 mg/L and/or faecal calprotectin ≥250 µg/g. Comorbidity measured by Charlson Comorbidity Index, continuous.
