High Vitamin D–Binding Protein Concentration, Low Albumin, and Mode of Remission Predict Relapse in Crohnʼs Disease

Abstract

Vitamin D deficiency was uncommon in our patients with CD in remission, and serum 25(OH)D3 did not predict disease flare, whereas higher VDBP concentrations were significantly associated with disease flare. Further investigations to explore the possible mechanisms for this association are warranted.
