Study Summary
This trial is designed to study the feasibility and effect of a web-based tool that predicts risk for Crohn's disease and provides personalized education on the disease. The goal is to see if this tool can change behaviors associated with Crohn's disease risk and normalize pre-clinical disease biomarkers.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for individuals over 14 years old who have a first-degree relative with inflammatory bowel disease but do not show signs of the disease themselves. They must be able to understand and fill out questionnaires, give informed consent, and follow all study procedures.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests a web-based tool called PRE-CD that estimates personal risk for Crohn's Disease against standard education on the condition. It aims to see if this tool can change behaviors and improve biomarkers related to Crohn's Disease risk in high-risk individuals.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves an educational tool rather than medication, traditional side effects are not expected. However, participants may experience stress or anxiety from learning about their personalized risk factors.
