Abstract

Objective

Ulcerative colitis is a chronic idiopathic disease that causes inflammation of the colon and rectum, progressing with relapses and remissions. Systemic inflammatory index (SII) and pan-immune inflammatory value (PIV) are newly developed biomarkers. There are many studies in the literature showing the relationship between SII and PIV with malignancies and inflammatory diseases. In this study we aimed to determine the relationship between SII and PIV with the activity of ulcerative colitis.

Materials and methods

146 Ulcerative colitis patients were retrospectively investigated by the time of diagnosis based on clinical, endoscopic and histolopathological findings. Patients and healthy individuals SII and PIV levels were calculated and compared with each other; and Mayo, DUBLIN, UCIES endoscopic subscores of patients were also obtained. Roc curve analysis were used to determine the cut-off value for PIV

Results

SII (468.6 ± 203.5 vs. 823.1 ± 555.1; p < .001), PIV (288.2 ± 159.9 vs. 912.2 ± 924.1; p < .001), were statistically different between groups. PIV (OR: 1.157; (1.041–1.432), p = .036), was also observed to be the independent predictor of ulcerative colitis. The best cut off value of PIV in the prediction of ulcerative colitis was ≥ 506 with 89.6% sensitivity and 63.7% specificity (AUC = 0.812; 95% CI 0.763–0.854, p < .001).

Conclusion

Based on the results of our study, we found that SII and PIV levels were significantly increased in ulcerative colitis patients at the time of diagnosis and were associated with disease severity in the endoscopic scores RACHMILEWITZ, UCEIS and DUBLIN scores, but not for MES score.
