Significance of Serum Leucine-rich Alpha-2 Glycoprotein as a Diagnostic Marker in Pediatric Inflammatory Bowel Disease

Serum leucine-rich alpha-2 glycoprotein (LRG) has been utilized for adult inflammatory bowel disease (IBD); however, its efficacy in pediatric IBD remains unknown. The aim of this study was to compare the diagnostic accuracy of serum LRG for pediatric IBD with that of current inflammatory markers, e...

Zusammenfassung:	Serum leucine-rich alpha-2 glycoprotein (LRG) has been utilized for adult inflammatory bowel disease (IBD); however, its efficacy in pediatric IBD remains unknown. The aim of this study was to compare the diagnostic accuracy of serum LRG for pediatric IBD with that of current inflammatory markers, erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) and C-reactive protein (CRP). This retrospective case-control study included pediatric patients, aged
