Table 4 Red cell distribution width comparison between remission and active disease in ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease, median (interquartile range)

Variable	Remission	Active disease	P value
UC: RDW-CV (%)	13.1 (12.7-13.7)	13.6 (13.0-15.0)	0.002
UC: RDW-SD (fL)	41.5 (39.5-43.5)	42.0 (40.0-44.7)	0.30
CD: RDW-CV (%)	13.8 (12.9-14.8)	14.2 (13.3-15.8)	0.25
CD: RDW-SD (fL)	43.0 (40.2-45.4)	43.4 (40.6-47.1)	0.75
