Title: Combined use of CDAI and blood indices for assessing endoscopic activity in ileocolic
Crohn’s disease

Reviewer:  Bhaskar Kante
Reviewer's report:
Congratulations Authors, The paper addressed a clinically relevant question for non-invasive
follow-up Crohn's disease.  The manuscript was well written with appropriate statistics. I have
a few comments mentioned below
Minor :
1. Use another reference citing the epidemiology
2. It was mentioned in the discussion “However, in our study, the correlation between PRO and
SESCD was worse than that between CDAI and SES CD”
Please mention the analysis in the supplementary section
3. The title of the paper doesn't sound well. come up with a better title
4. Stick to word either ileocolic or ileocolonic in the whole manuscript
Major :
1. Subscoring of SES CD
Can you do an analysis of the correlation between absence of ulceration in SES CD and the new
comprehensive index
STRIDE II consensus highlights either the absence of ulcerations in SES CD or SES CD <3
should define mucosal healing
