C-reactive protein and procalcitonin in patients with DRESS syndrome
Methods We examined cases of DRESS syndrome which were reported to our pharmacovigilance centre 2008-2013 and cases reported in the literature during the same period for which CRP and/or PCT were available. Peak values were recorded whenever possible. The extent of CRP and PCT elevation in cases where DRESS syndrome was not due to antibiotics was also studied as these cases were less likely to ...
متن کاملProcalcitonin, C-reactive protein and serum lactate dehydrogenase in the diagnosis of bacterial sepsis, SIRS and systemic candidiasis.
The aim of this study was to evaluate procalcitonin (PCT), C-reactive protein (CRP), platelet count (PLT) and serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) as early markers for diagnosis of SIRS, bacterial sepsis and systemic candidiasis in intensive care unit (ICU) patients. Based on blood culture results, the patients were divided into a sepsis group (70 patients), a SIRS group (42 patients) and a system...
متن کاملPredictive value of procalcitonin in respiratory adenovirus infections in children with elevated C-reactive protein levels
Abstract: Adenoviruses (ADV) often cause respiratory infections. They have, in contrast to other respiratory viruses via a potential acute phase parameter (C-reactive protein, leukocytes and interleukin 6) to trigger. ADV infections are associated with increased secretion of IL-6 and TNF-?lpha, which activates the synthesis of acute phase proteins. The exact pathogenic mechanism is still unclea...
متن کاملPrognostic Value of C - reactive Protein and Procalcitonin Levels in Predicting Anastomotic Leakage after Colorectal Resection in Mazandaran Province
Background and purpose: Colorectal resection is used for various diseases and leakage in an anastomosis is one of its complications. Some studies confirmed the predictive effects of C-reactive protein (CRP) and procalcitonin markers leakage in anastomosis. This study aimed to investigate the prognostic value of CRP and procalcitonin in predicting anastomotic leakage in elective colorectal surge...
متن کاملDiagnostic and prognostic value of procalcitonin and C-reactive protein in malnourished children.
BACKGROUND Early recognition of bacterial infections is crucial for their proper management, but is particularly difficult in children with severe acute malnutrition (SAM). The objectives of this study were to evaluate the accuracy of C-reactive protein (CRP) and procalcitonin (PCT) for diagnosing bacterial infections and assessing the prognosis of hospitalized children with SAM, and to determi...
