  1. GI scores of group C and D were significantly higher than those of group A and B (P < 0.001), but there was no significant difference between groups A and B (P = 0.079) or groups C and D (P = 0.514). There was excellent agreement between real-time CLE and conventional histology (kappa = 0.812).
