Abstract:
Objective To determine the role of C-reactive protein(CRP) in evaluating the activity of ulcerative colitis. Methods Analysis was used to estimate the correlation of CRP with mean platelet volume in 41 patients with active ulcerative colitis and 17 patients ulcerative colitis in re-mission. The effects on disease severity were analyzed subsequently. Results Active UC patients sera CRP level(8.58 ±2.43)mg/L,which level of severe UC CRP (14.38 ±4.46)mg/L,the moderate level of CRP UC(6.68 ±2.35)mg/L,mild level of CRP UC(4.94 ±1.21)mg/L, while the remission stage UC patients CRP levels(3.05 ±0. 88)mg/L. CRP was found to be significantly higher in sera of patients with active ulcerative colitis than that in patients in remission (P < 0.05). The sera level of CRP in inflammatory bowel disease at severe stage were significantly higher than those of medium stage (P < 0. 05). CRP was observed to be slightly increased in sera of patients at mild stage (P < 0. 05). Conclusion The increase of CRP could reflect the severity of active ulcerative colitis.
