A, Box Whisker plot for levels of valine associated with ulcerative colitis localization, according to the Paris classification (E1: ulcerative proctitis, E2: left sided UC, E3: extensive UC, E4: pancolitis). Ordinal regression model showed a positively significant (P < .05) association between levels of valine and more extended disease in UC patients. B, Box Whisker plot, illustrating a positively significant (P < .05) association between levels of tryptophan and more extended disease (pancolitis) in UC patients. C, Box Whisker plot, illustrating a positively significant (P < .05) association between levels of histidine and more extended disease (pancolitis) in UC patients.
