Summary

Consequences of latent cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection reactivation on ulcerative colitis flare, as a flare-worsening factor or simple bystander, are debated. Theoretically, CMV-specific cell-mediate immune response will further categorize the patients into high or low risk of CMV colitis. The investigators thus evaluate the usefulness of CMV-specific ELISPOT assay in patient with ulcerative colitis flare to assess the the impact of CMV colitis on ulcerative colitis flare.
