Abstract:
Objective To investigate the correlation between capsule endoscopy Crohn′s disease activity index (CECDAI ) , capsule endoscopy Lewis score , simplified Crohn′s disease activity index (sCDAI) ,C reactive protein (CRP) ,erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) and Crohn′s disease (CD) activity .Methods From April 2009 to April 2014 , 120 patients having received capsule endoscopy examination and diagnosed as CD were collected . The data of CRP and ESR were analyzed . The CD severity was scored by CECDAI ,Lewis score and sCDAI .Spearman correlation was performed to analyze the correlation between CECDAI ,Lewis score ,sCDAI ,CRP and ESR .Results Among all the patients , CECDAI had a good correlation with Lewis score (r=0 .645 , P< 0 .01) and also was correlated with sCDAI (r=0 .190 , P< 0 .05) ,CRP and ESR (r= 0 .315 and 0 .393 ,both P< 0 .01) .However ,the Lewis score was not correlated with sCDAI ,CRP and ESR (r=0 .052 ,0 .041 and 0 .021 ,all P>0 .05) . sCDAI had a good correlation with CRP and ESR (r=0 .438 and 0 .429 ,both P<0 .01) .Among patients whose capsule endoscope failed to pass through the whole small intestinal ,the CECDAI had no significant correlation with sCDAI ,CRP and ESR (r=0 .126 ,0 .181 and 0 .269 ,all P>0 .05) .Conclusions Lewis score ,sCDAI ,CRP and ESR can reflect disease activity of CD patients in a certain degree .CECDAI is the most suitable index in evaluating the disease activity of CD patients .Therefore ,it is necessary to attach importance to capsule endoscopy examination .
