Abstract |
Hitherto, therapeutic depletion of granulocytes and monocytes by adsorption (GMA) has been associated with significant and insignificant efficacy in patients with ulcerative colitis (UC). Further, the processed blood volume in one GMA session has been fixed at 30 mL/min × 60 min, regardless of patients' body weight (BW). We were interested to see the efficacy and safety of GMA when administered in relation to patients' BW. |
