Overview

Analysis demonstrates PNI and CONUT scores predict disease activity in ulcerative colitis, suggesting improved management strategies.

Key Points

This study investigates the relationship between nutritional indices, PNI and CONUT, with clinical and endoscopic activities in patients with ulcerative colitis.
Retrospective review of 196 ulcerative colitis patients' data
Division into remission-mild and moderate-severe clinical activity groups
Analysis of PNI and CONUT scores in relation to Mayo and Rachmilewitz endoscopic activity indices
39.8% of cases were female and 60.2% were male; mean age was 40.28 years
45.9% had remission-mild disease and 54.1% had moderate-to-severe disease
PNI scores were lower and CONUT scores were higher in moderate-to-severe and active disease groups (p < 0.001)
