HBI = Harvey–Bradshaw Index; CRP = C-reactive protein; f-calprotectin = fecal calprotectin; Hb = hemoglobin; IQR, inter-quartile range; n = number of patients with available data within ± 2 weeks of baseline, weeks 16, 52, and 104 visits to the physician
*Includes patients with recorded data at baseline ± 2 weeks and at weeks 16, 52, and 104 ± 2 weeks; ** calculated as ln(f-calprotectin)
