Abstract:
Background:Small bowel Crohn's disease (CD) is a chronic nonspecific inflammatory disease with unknown etiology.There is no clear criteria for assessing the progression of CD, and the endoscopic index for assessing disease activity in CD patients is limited to a single parameter.Aims:To investigate the clinical value of endoscopic index in evaluating disease activity in patients with CD and the correlation between different parameters.Methods:Sixty cases of CD patients form Jan.2008 to Dec.2012 at Affiliated Hospital of Yanan Uuiversity were collected, 60 healthy adults were served as control group.CECDAI score, CDAI score and Lewis score were used to evaluate disease activity in patients with CD, and their relationship with CRP and ESR were analyzed.Results:Levels of CRP and ESR were significantly increased in CD patients than in controls (P<0.05).CDAI score and Lewis score were statistically different in different CECDAI score groups (F=5.53, P<0.05;F=22.64, P<0.05).CECDAI score was statistically different in different CDAI score groups (F=3.55, P<0.05), and was statistically different in different Lewis score groups (F=4.26, P<0.05).CECDAI score was correlated with CDAI score, Lewis score, CRP, ESR (P<0.05);CDAI score was correlated with CRP, ESR (P<0.05) and not correlated with Lewis score (P>0.05);Lewis score was not correlated with CRP, ESR (P>0.05) in CD patients.Conclusions:CECDAI score, CDAI score, Lewis score, CRP, ESR can reflect disease activity of CD, and can be used together to assess disease activity of CD patients.
