Several clinical scores (Cotter, Kane and Atieh) have been proposed to guide biopsy decisions; however, their diagnostic accuracy remains limited.</p><p><strong>Aims: </strong>To develop a derivation-stage clinical and biomarker-based score incorporating faecal calprotectin to predict microscopic colitis in patients with chronic watery diarrhoea and to assess its diagnostic accuracy compared with previously reported scores.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>A prospective observational study was conducted at two centres, including adults with chronic watery diarrhoea. Clinical data, faecal calprotectin and colonoscopy with biopsies were recorded. Multivariate logistic regression was used to identify independent predictors of microscopic colitis. Score weights were derived from regression β coefficients. Diagnostic performance was assessed using ROC curve analysis, calibration metrics and bootstrap internal validation with 1000 resamples.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>Among 111 patients, 41 were diagnosed with microscopic colitis.

It showed excellent discrimination with an AUC of 0.90 (optimism-corrected AUC 0.88), and no false-negative cases were observed at the sensitivity-driven cut-off.
