Key Words Ulcerative colitis; Pediatric ulcerative colitis activity index; Mayo score
Core Tip There is controversy regarding what the best method of assessing disease activity in pediatric ulcerative colitis. Currently, the best accepted tool is the pediatric ulcerative colitis activity index (PUCAI), developed by Turner and colleagues, which is a physician reported measure. Because of its formal validation and ease of use, the PUCAI has been widely accepted both as a clinical tool by physicians. Other experts have suggested that biomarkers, patient reported outcomes, or endoscopic disease activity may be better measures. In this study, we show physicians looking at endoscopic photos may grade the Mayo endoscopic scores differently, and that the PUCAI generally correlates well with endoscopic disease activity.
