Table 2 Value of the medians and interquartile ranges (P25-P75) of non-invasive markers of patients in endoscopic remission (SES-CD = 0–2) and those with endoscopic activity (SES-CD ≥ 3)

From: Faecal calprotectin is the biomarker that best distinguishes remission from different degrees of endoscopic activity in Crohn’s disease
