Figure 1 Cytokine (A) and growth factor (B) levels following disease diagnosis in incident Crohn disease subjects, expressed as pg/mL. Data presented are limited to the 30 subjects with data at each study visit. P values are based on results of a signed rank test between baseline and long-term follow-up (LTFU) values.

Figure 2 Anthropometry (A, B) and body composition (C, D) Z scores after disease diagnosis in incident Crohn disease subjects. Data for (A) are limited to the 27 subjects in Tanner stages 1−4 at each study visit. Data for (B)−(D) are limited to the 46 subjects with data at each study visit. P values for time and (time)2 are reported jointly to capture the nonlinear relations.
