(31) Serum concentration of interleukin-6 are also raised in active Crohn's disease but surprisingly not in ulcerative colitis.

(32) Sixteen percent of the patients with left sided colitis developed malignant strictures compared with 31% of the patients with universal colitis.

(33) Immunological abnormalities are generally accepted to be involved in the pathogenesis of ulcerative colitis.

(34) Assessment of intestinal permeability in ulcerative colitis after the ingestion of various markers has yielded conflicting results.

(35) The mean ages of onset of colitis in the benign and malignant groups were 31 and 24 years respectively.

(36) Activated macrophages are prominent in the inflammatory infiltrate in both ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease.

(37) The Eurythmics rocker has been in pain for two months with colitis, a disease which causes ulcers in the intestine.

(38) Powell-Tuck etal measured whole body protein metabolism in 19 patients with ulcerative colitis, while they were receiving enteral or intravenous nutrition.

(39) We showed that luminol enhanced chemiluminescence from colonic mucosa biopsy specimens is increased in patients with ulcerative colitis.

(40) These data would argue against a pathogenic role for E coli in ulcerative colitis.

(41) Thus a considerable number of cases of both ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease are sporadic or non-genetic.

(42) Further investigations are needed to determine if also this aberration is specific for ulcerative colitis.

(43) There was no significant difference in the distribution of adherent strains between the colitis patient groups or with disease activity.

(44) In the remaining seven patients the diagnosis was made after colectomy and synchronous pouch formation despite preoperative endoscopic biopsies suggesting ulcerative colitis.

(45) Patients with active colitis were reexamined after three and 12 weeks of treatment.

(46) The other IgG subclasses were not correlated at the cellular level in either ulcerative colitis or Crohn's disease twins.

(47) The generally accepted surveillance policy in most centres today is regular colonoscopy for patients with longstanding extensive colitis.

(48) There was no significant increased complication rate or disturbed pouch function in those with indeterminate colitis.

(49) Because bismuth is known to have a toxic effect on some microorganisms its therapeutic benefit in colitis may be related to this.

(50) Patients with active colitis were colonised less frequently and with lower numbers of E coli than were control patients.

(51) These findings are consistent with decreased transit in the proximal and rapid transit through the sigmoid colon in patients with active colitis.

(52) We have previously characterised the rectal mucosa associated microflora of patients with ulcerative colitis.

(53) This present study was not designed to assess the biological significance of endotoxaemia, however(sentencedict.com),[Sentencedict.com ] nor the treatment of colitis.

(54) In conclusion, our study confirms that perinuclear antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies are indeed demonstrable in the large majority of ulcerative colitis patients.

(55) The unsaturation index did not show differences between patients with ulcerative colitis and controls.

(56) Originally only four patients were classified as having definite Crohn's disease and 15 as indeterminate colitis leaving 62 with ulcerative colitis.

(57) Ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease are chronic, remitting and relapsing mucosal disorders, collectively known as inflammatory bowel disease.

(58) Of the two patients with recurrent pouchitis who have ulcerative colitis both have had pouch excision because of poor functional results.

(59) Ultrastructural changes in colonic mucosa consistent with increased absorption have been described in ulcerative colitis, in both affected and unaffected areas.

(60) These peptides are produced by bacteria normally found in the human bowel and in patients with ulcerative colitis.
