Comparative Predictive Utility of MM-SES-CD and SES-CD for Week 52 Endoscopic Remission in the Ileum and Colon in Crohn's Disease.
Article in Inflammatory bowel diseases, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundThe Simple Endoscopic Score for Crohn's disease (SES-CD) and Modified Multiplier of the SES-CD (MM-SES-CD) are endoscopic scoring systems used to assess disease severity and response to therapy in CD. This study evaluates their utility at baseline in predicting endoscopic remission (ER) of the ileum and colon at week 52.
methodsThis post-hoc analysis of 4 clinical trials (CT-P13, UNITI, EXTEND, and SEAVUE) compared baseline scores and ER outcomes at week 52 using the SES-CD and MM-SES-CD. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) for each scoring system's ability to predict week 52 ER defined by various thresholds was compared.
resultsA total of 667 patients were included in this analysis. At baseline, the median SES-CD score was 8.5 (IQR 5.0-15.7), and the median MM-SES-CD score was 34.8 (IQR 27.5-50.0). MM-SES-CD demonstrated consistently higher AUC values compared to SES-CD across most endpoints in ileal and colonic disease involvement. Among 519 patients with any disease in the ileum, baseline MM-SES-CD demonstrated significantly better predictive accuracy than SES-CD for week 52 SES-CD < 3 [AUC 0.75 (95% CI: 0.71-0.80) vs. 0.64 (95% CI: 0.59-0.70), P = .031]. Similar findings were observed for other definitions of ER. Among 552 participants with colonic disease involvement, baseline MM-SES-CD also demonstrated significantly greater accuracy for predicting week 52 SES-CD < 3 [AUC 0.78 (95% CI: 0.73-0.82) vs. 0.62 (95% CI: 0.57-0.66), P = .002], with similar findings across other definitions of ER assessed. Similar trends were observed across isolated ileal, ileocolonic, and isolated colonic disease.
conclusionThe baseline MM-SES-CD demonstrated superior predictive ability for week 52 ER compared to SES-CD across the ileum and colon. These findings support its utility in clinical trials and in routine practice for predicting long-term treatment response.
