2. Anti–Saccharomyces cerevisiae antibody - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti–Saccharomyces...

   ASCA are consistently higher in frequency in Crohn's disease. Yeast cause a three-fold increase in lymphocyte proliferation relative to normal controls. [21] The ASCA antibodies are also more frequently found in familial Crohn's disease. [10] An altered humoral and cellular response to mannan is observed and may be due to a loss of yeast ...

3. Saccharomyces cerevisiae - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saccharomyces_cerevisiae

   Antibodies against S. cerevisiae are found in 60–70% of patients with Crohn's disease and 10–15% of patients with ulcerative colitis, and may be useful as part of a panel of serological markers in differentiating between inflammatory bowel diseases (e.g. between ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease), their localization and severity. [2]

4. Candida albicans - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Candida_albicans

   The link between C. albicans and Crohn's disease has been investigated in a large cohort. This study demonstrated that members of families with multiple cases of Crohn's disease were more likely to be colonized by C. albicans than members of control families. [91] Experimental studies show that chemically induced colitis promotes C. albicans ...

6. Crohn's disease - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crohn's_disease

   The Crohn's Disease Activity Index (CDAI) is a scoring system to assess the symptoms associated with Crohn's disease. It assigns a score based on eight clinical factors, including overall well-being, frequency of loose stools, abdominal pain, presence of abdominal masses, changes in weight, low hemoglobin levels, and use of opiates for diarrhea.

7. p-ANCA - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P-ANCA

   p-ANCA is associated with several medical conditions: [3] It is fairly specific, but not sensitive for ulcerative colitis, so is not useful as a sole diagnostic test. [4] When measured together with anti-saccharomyces cerevisiae antibodies (ASCA), p-ANCA has been estimated to have a specificity of 97% and a sensitivity of 48% in differentiating patients with ulcerative colitis from normal ...
