Correlation between Faecal Excretion of Indium-111-Labelled Granulocytes and Calprotectin, a Granulocyte Marker Protein, in Patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease

Abstract

BACKGROUND: Several studies have suggested that clinical indices of disease activity in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) do not adequately reflect the degree of inflammation in most such patients. Faecal excretion of indium-111-labelled neutrophilic granulocytes has been suggested as the gold standard of disease activity, but its complexity and high cost and the exposure of patients to ionizing irradiation have limited the use of this technique. The aim of this study was to investigate the correlation between the faecal excretion of the granulocyte marker protein calprotectin and that of 111In-labelled granulocytes. METHODS: Calprotectin in stool extracts from 19 patients with Crohn's disease (CD), 10 with ulcerative colitis (UC), and 9 presumably healthy controls was assessed with a simple enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Simultaneously, the faecal excretion of autologous 111In-labelled granulocytes was measured. RESULTS: There was a strong correlation between the average daily excretion of calprotectin and that of the total 3-day excretion of 111In-labelled granulocytes (r = 0.87, P < 0.0001). Furthermore, the concentration of calprotectin, assessed in a small stool sample on day 1, also correlated well with the excretion 111In-labelled granulocytes (r = 0.80, P < 0.0001). CONCLUSION: The results suggest that faecal calprotectin reflects the granulocyte migration through the gut wall in patients with IBD and hence might serve as a simple, inexpensive alternative to the indium-111 technique.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
