Table 5. Spearman’s rank correlation test for parameters for indexes of colorectal inflammation in HE-stained pathological sections.
| The angle of mucosal folds (°) | Length of the basilar part (μm) | Area of the submucosa (μm2) | Height of submucosa (μm) | The thickness of muscularis (μm) | Height of submucosa + thickness of muscularis (μm) | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Inflammation degree in HE | r | 0.853 | 0.915 | 0.819 | 0.451 | −0.093 | 0.209 |
| Sig. (double test) | 0.000 | 0.000 | 0.000 | 0.001 | 0.510 | 0.137 | |
| N | 52 | 52 | 52 | 52 | 52 | 52 |
The correlation is significant with a confidence level (double test) of 0.01.
