C-reactive Protein Level Can Replace Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate for Defining the Severity of Ulcerative Colitis

A research team in Australia has determined that a blood level of C-reactive protein equal to or greater than 12 milligrams/liter is a practical alternative to measurement of ESR (Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate) for defining the severity of ulcerative colitis. More...
