Brief Summary

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.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Serum LRG measurement

    Serum samples were collected from patients, and scores for clinical and endoscopic activity of disease were obtained by reviewing the clinical records of patients.

    one year

Interventions

Patients who were diagnosed with possible UC or Crohn disease according to endoscopic, radiological, histological, and clinical criteria were enrolled. 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 were performed within 7 days.
