We found fair concordance between criteria for ID and LDA in JIA, with the main drivers of discordance for ID being physician and parent global assessments and acute-phase reactants. This observation highlights the need for further studies aimed to evaluate the impact of subjective physician and parent perception of disease remission and of laboratory measures of inflammatory activity on the definition of ID.
