    The study analyzed inflammatory serum proteins to characterize the heterogeneity of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) across multiple European cohorts.

  • 2

    A total of 86 inflammation-related serum proteins were measured in 1551 IBD patients and 312 healthy controls using proximity extension methodology.

  • 3

    Significant differences in protein levels were found between IBD subtypes, particularly between ileal and colonic IBD.

  • 4

    Classification models demonstrated better accuracy in differentiating ulcerative colitis from ileal Crohn's disease compared to colonic Crohn's disease.

  • 5

    The findings support a continuous spectrum of IBD, suggesting colonic Crohn's disease resembles ulcerative colitis more than ileal Crohn's disease.
