Mean flare values in photons/ms in patients with ocular inflammatory disease
Ocular diagnosis | IBD diagnosis | No of patients | Flare (photons/ms) | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Mean | SD | Min | Max | ||||
Previous uveitis | Crohn's disease | 2 | 4.1 | 1.0 | 3.1 | 5.1 | |
(Epi)scleritis | Crohn's disease | 5 | 4.0 | 0.9 | 2.2 | 5.2 | |
Ulcerative colitis | 3 | 3.7 | 1.1 | 2.7 | 5.1 | ||
Indeterminate IBD | 1 | 4.2 | – | – | – | ||
Anterior uveitis | Crohn's disease | 4 | 58 | 4.3 | 35.3 | 120 |
IBD = inflammatory bowel disease.
In all patients with (epe)scleritis no active ocular inflammation was present at the time of flare measurement. In all patients with anterior uveitis the disease was active at the time of measurement.
