Evaluation Of Relationship Between Endoscopic Activity Index and Inflammatory Indicators Such as Fecal Calprotectin, C-Reactive Protein to Albumin Ratio, Neutrophil to Lymphocyte Ratio, Platelet to Lymphocyte Ratio in Ulcerative Colitis Patients
Analytical study shows platelet to lymphocyte ratio predicts acute severe ulcerative colitis in patients, indicating potential for routine monitoring.
Key Points
Platelet to lymphocyte ratio predicted acute severe ulcerative colitis, indicating its potential for effective patient stratification.
Participants exhibited elevated inflammatory markers, with a C-reactive protein level averaging 32.6 mg/L, highlighting a concerning trend in disease activity.
An analytical cross-sectional study assessed the association of inflammatory indicators with disease severity in 131 ulcerative colitis patients.
Findings suggest the routine use of inflammatory indices like PLR could assist in managing ulcerative colitis and adapting treatment plans.
