Participants were included if they were: aged 2 to 18 years at the time of diagnosis, had a confirmed diagnosis of CD, and met WHO criteria for overweight or obesity at the time of diagnosis or within one year before diagnosis.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>A total of 345 patient charts with CD were screened during the study period, with 16 patients meeting inclusion criteria. Median age of patients was 15.5 years (IQR\u2005=\u200513.6, 16.1). Of the 15 patients over 10 years of age, median anthropometrics at diagnosis included body mass index (BMI) of 27.2 (IQR\u2005=\u200524.9, 29.4) and BMI for age z-score of 1.82 (IQR\u2005=\u20051.58, 2.19). Presenting symptoms included abdominal pain (80.0%), diarrhea (66.7%), hematochezia (66.7%), and weight loss (26.7%). Five patients (33.3%) had obesity-related complications. Median time from symptom onset to diagnosis was 146 days (IQR\u2005=\u200531, 367), and median time from diagnosis to remission was 229 days (IQR\u2005=\u2005101.8, 496.3).<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>Patients with elevated BMI and CD present with typical symptoms of IBD, although weight loss was a less common presenting symptom. Time to disease remission is delayed, and obesity-related complications are common. Primary care providers must have a high degree of clinical suspicion in patients to prevent delays to gastroenterology referral and to improve time to disease remission.<\/jats:p>\n
