Serum concentrations of insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 5 in Crohn’s disease

Table 4 Frequency of Insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 5 positive samples and the median intensity score of IGFBP-5 immunostaining (scores 0 to 3) in Crohn’s disease patients with and without stricture formation n (%)

	CD patients with stricture formation (n = 26)	CD patients without stricture formation (n = 16)	P value1
Number of IGFBP-5 positive samples	16 (61.5)	8 (50)	0.463
Median intensity score of IGFBP-5 immunostaining	1	0.5	0.405

¹P values are from Fisher’s exact and Mann-Whitney test statistics were appropriate. IGFBP-5: Insulin-like growth factor -binding protein 5; CD: Crohn's disease.
