Adherence to the Mediterranean Diet Is Associated with Decreased Fecal Calprotectin Levels in Children with Crohn's Disease in Clinical Remission under Biological Therapy.

Introduction: Adherence to the Mediterranean diet (MD) was shown to be associated with decreased disease activity in adult patients with Crohn's disease (CD). Nevertheless, data on its association with fecal calprotectin (FC), particularly in children, remain limited. This study aimed to assess the association between adherence to the MD and FC as an indicator of mucosal healing in patients who are predominantly in remission while undergoing biological therapy.
