C-reactive Protein: A Prognostic Indicator
© 2017 International Journal of Applied and Basic Medical Research | Published by Wolters Kluwer ‐ Medknow C‐reactive protein (CRP) is a serum acute phase reactant and a valuable inflammatory biomarker in various clinical conditions. It was first discovered by Tillett and Francis (1930) in the serum of patients with pneumonia but was isolated in 1941.[1] CRP derives its name due to ability of t...
متن کاملPrognostic value of C-Reactive Protein in Acute Coronary Syndromes
Introduction: Coronary artery disease (CAD) is among the most common, serious, chronic and life- threatening illnesses in the world. CAD represents a spectrum of conditions, with acute myocardial infarction at one end of it and silent ischemia at the other. There is growing evidence on importance of prognosis of C- reactive protein (CPR) in unstable angina and this protein is a maker of an adve...
متن کاملPrognostic value of the C-reactive protein to albumin ratio: a novel inflammation-based prognostic indicator in osteosarcoma
The prognostic role of the C-reactive protein to albumin ratio (CRP/Alb ratio) in patients with osteosarcoma has not been investigated. A total of 216 osteosarcoma patients were enrolled in the study. Univariate and multivariate survival analyses between the groups were performed and Kaplan-Meier analysis was conducted to plot the survival curves. Receiver operating characteristic curves were g...
متن کاملC-reactive protein as a prognostic marker in lymphocytic myocarditis.
The prognosis of patients with lymphocytic myocarditis (LM) is poor with the combined endpoint of death or transplant in the Myocarditis Treatment trial being 56% at 5 years. Physicians often have difficulty determining the prognosis in an individual patient. Patients with LM may have ongoing myocardial inflammation. We evaluated the ability of a serum marker of inflammation to predict prognosi...
متن کاملC-REACTIVE PROTEIN RESPONSE IN ANGINA PECTORIS
C-reactive protein (CRP) response was studied in 44 patients with acute angina pectoris admitted to the coronary care unit. 71 % of patients with acute myocardial infarction (MI)had positive CRP test while 73% of patients presumed to have unstable angina pectoris had negative CRP test. This test can be helpful in differentiating between acute MI and unstable angina pectoris.
