Gut stiffness index is positively correlated with the fibrosis score (FS) and collagen IV deposition intensity (CDI) in the chronic colitis colon. Quantification of FS (A) and CDI (B), correlation coefficients for GSI vs FS (C) and GSI vs CDI (D) of acute colitis colon, correlation coefficients for GSI vs FS (E) and GSI vs CDI (F) of chronic colitis colon. Correlation coefficient “1” suggests perfect positive correlation; “0” for no correlation; and “−1” for perfect negative correlation (n = 5, V.S. healthy group, P < .05, Student t test).
