P840 Longitudinal bidirectional association of physical activity and disease activity in children with Inflammatory Bowel Disease: a cohort study
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract Background Studies have shown that regular physical activity (PA) can contribute to lower inflammatory markers over time in pediatric patients with an inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). However, patients with active disease may be less prone to engage in PA and therefore, develop sedentary habits. No study so far, have investigated if clinical disease activity (CDA) can affect PA longitudinally and if PA may impact disease outcomes. The aim of this study was to investigate the bidirectional association between PA and CDA in a cohort of children and adolescents with IBD. Methods IBD patients of CHU Sainte-Justine pediatric hospital were prospectively surveyed using the Canadian Health Measures Survey Children’s Physical Activity Questionnaire during outpatient visits every three months for one year. PA levels were classified according to Canadian moderate-to-vigorous PA (MVPA) recommendations. Clinical data was collected retrospectively through patients’ files. CDA was determined at baseline and at each follow-up visit. Results A total of 247 IBD patients (median age [IQR], 15 years [13-17]; 55% male) were included. Among them, 167 (68%) were diagnosed with Crohn’s disease and 80 (32%) with ulcerative or indeterminate colitis. At the initial visit, 65% of patients were considered in clinical remission, 28% of patients were considered “sedentary”, 21% “moderately active”, 31% “extremely active” and 25% “vigorously active”. Patients classified as “extremely active” (34-74 minutes of daily MVPA) at initial visit were less likely to have active CDA at follow-up (odds ratio (OR) [95% CI]: 0.30 [0.09-0.96]). Inversely, CDA at baseline did not correlate with PA levels at follow-up. BMI, sex and age did not significantly affect PA level or CDA between follow-ups. Conclusion This study demonstrates a possible protective association between higher PA level and CDA over time in pediatric IBD. These findings stress the importance to engage children with IBD in regular physical activity.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
