Abstract
Genetic variants at the CARD15 and IBD5 loci are strongly associated with Crohn's disease (CD), but evidence of the effect of these variants on the clinical expression of CD is conflicting and has often been hampered by small sample sizes. We studied 630 well-characterized patients to clarify the genotype/phenotype relationship in CD.
