Effectiveness of Serum Leucine-rich Alpha-2 Glycoprotein Levels on IBD

February 22, 2024 updated by: Akira Horiuchi, Showa Inan General Hospital

Association Between Serum Leucine-rich Alpha-2 Glycoprotein Levels and Endoscopic Activity of Possible Ulcerative Colitis or Crohn's Disease Colitis

We attempt to examine the association between serum leucine-rich alpha-2 glycoprotein (LRG) levels and endoscopic activity in patients with possible ulcerative colitis (UC) or Crohn's disease (CD) to determine whether LRG was a predicting marker for UC or CD.

Conditions

Detailed Description

Serum samples were collected from patients, and scores for clinical and endoscopic activity of disease were obtained by reviewing the clinical records of patients. Serum sampling and colonoscopy with histology were performed within 7 days.The disease activity of UC and CD patients was evaluated by the Mayo score and Crohn disease activity index (CDAI), respectively. The Mayo endoscopy score was evaluated. UC patients whose Mayo endoscopy score was 2 or 3 were divided into the active UC group.

CD patients whose CDAI >150 were divided into the active CD group.
