Acute Phase Reactants as a Prognostic Factor in Acute Stroke
Introduction: Elevated levels of CRP are present among patients at risk for further first-ever myocardial infarction and stroke. It has been shown that after ischemic stroke, increased levels of CRP are associated with unfavorable outcomes. Methods: From 120 patients admitted to the emergency unit of our hospital with the diagnosis of stroke CRP, D-dimer and ferritin level was measured and the ...
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 کاملAcute Phase Reactants Ceruloplasmin and Haptoglobin and Their Relationship to Plasma Prostaglandins in Rabbits Bearing
Results of a series of studies on the cause of the hypercalcemia that occurs in mice bearing the HSDM~ fibrosarcoma (1-6) and in rabbits carrying the VX2 carcinoma (7-9) have led us to conclude that these two tumors synthesize and secrete large amounts of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) into plasma. ~ PGE~ is a potent bone resorption-stimulating agent in vitro (2, 10), and this prostaglandin and its me...
متن کاملComparison of C - reactive protein Levels in Chronic Periodontitis Patients with Normal Subjects
Background: Chronic periodontitis causes systemic inflammation and increases C-reactive protein (CRP). CRP has been implicated as a possible mediator of associating periodontitis and several systemic diseases. The aim of the present study was to investigate systemic levels of CRP in patients with chronic periodontitis in comparison to periodontally healthy individuals. Materials and methods:...
متن کاملDiagnostic value of a combined C-reactive protein and haptoglobin tests in new cases of upper tract urothelial carcinoma
Introduction: Serum C-reactive protein (CRP) is believed to be increased in metastatic urothelial cancer of the bladder. However, the changes depend on the stage and grade of the upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC). This study aimed to compare low-range and high-range serum CRP and haptoglobin in new cases of UTUC. Materials and methods: Blood was collected from newly diagnosed patient...
