Article Synopsis
- The study explores how specific genetic variations (SNPs) influence the effectiveness of immunomodulatory therapies and disease progression in patients with Crohn's disease (CD).
- It included 379 patients from Heidelberg University Hospital and found that certain SNPs are linked to treatment response and complications, such as a higher rate of surgeries related to CD.
- Notably, the presence of a risk allele in the PTPN2 gene was significantly associated with a poor response to a specific treatment, indicating the need for future research on genetic factors in CD management.
