Clinical symptoms of septicemia, clinical outcome, and laboratory parameters of septicemia (C-reactive protein) were studied retrospectively in 66 patients with CONS septicemia.
A total of 1,110 patients diagnosed with sepsis were retrospectively analyzed to identify response patterns for risk stratification of routine parameters measured at the peak level of C-reactive protein.
CONCLUSIONS Our study suggests that rs1205 genetic variability in the CRP gene determines the CRP levels in sepsis of different severities, while SNP rs3091244 and SNP rs2808630 are not associated with sepsis.
Sepsis-3 (subdistribution HR (sHR)=5.47; p=0.006), qSOFA (sHR=1.99; p=0.020), Chronic Liver Failure Consortium Acute Decompensation score (sHR=1.05; p=0.001) and C reactive protein (sHR=1.01;p=0.034) were found to be independent predictors of in-hospital mortality.
Death was the primary outcome in only one study and a survival benefit was not observed in the subset specified as sepsis (10 RCTs; RR, 0.94; 95% CI, 0.85-1.03; I<sup>2</sup> = 0%), those without industry sponsorship (nine RCTs; RR, 0.98; 95% CI, 0.87-1.10; I<sup>2</sup> = 0%), high PCT-guided algorithm adherence (five RCTs; RR, 0.93; 95% CI, 0.71-1.22; I<sup>2</sup> = 0%), and PCT-guided algorithms without C-reactive protein (eight RCTs; RR, 0.96; 95% CI, 0.87-1.06; I<sup>2</sup> = 0%).
We evaluated the impact of an automatic stop order (ASO) and C-reactive protein (CRP) on the duration of antibiotics and level of intervention in infants screened for early-onset sepsis who had negative cultures.
We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of neutrophil CD64, comparing it with C-reactive protein (CRP) and procalcitonin (PCT) for the diagnosis of infection in adult patients with septic syndrome, based on sepsis-2 criteria.
The rs1764390 G allele is associated with increased susceptibility to sepsis, which may be involved in the process of sepsis via mediating the plasma levels of NO, IL-6 and CRP.
Recent National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) CG149 guidelines suggest considering performing a lumbar puncture (LP) to investigate for meningitis in early-onset sepsis in a neonate when a C-reactive protein (CRP) level >10mg/L, but the evidence for this recommendation is poorly defined.
The area under the ROC curve (AUC) of HBP (cut-off ≥28.1 ng/mL) was 0.893 for sepsis which was higher than those of PCT (0.856) for a cut-off ≥2.05 ng/mL and of CRP (0.699) for a cut-off ≥151.9 mg/L.
Six hours of polymicrobial sepsis elicited by cecal ligation and puncture (CLP) elevated serum C-reactive protein (CRP) (a bacteremia and sepsis marker) concentration in anesthetized and mechanically ventilated neonatal pigs.
178 biomarkers are described in the literature--ranging from specimen cultures, which lack sensitivity and specificity for early diagnosis of sepsis, to biomarkers such as C-reactive protein, procalcitonin, and genetic biomarkers, which have their own limitations.
We show that the sensitivity of sMR to predict mortality [area under curve (AUC) = 0.77] exceeded the sensitivity of procalcitonin (PCT, AUC = 0.63), C-reactive protein (CRP, AUC = 0.61) and the macrophage soluble receptor, CD163 (sCD163, AUC = 0.74), while it was less accurate to predict diagnosis of sepsis [AUC(sMR) = 0.69 vs. AUC(PCT) = 0.79, AUC(CRP) = 0.71 and AUC(sCD163) = 0.66].
• An elevated CRP concentration during the first postnatal week may be regarded as an expected finding in moderate and severe HIE and, in the overwhelming majority of cases, occurs secondary to hepatic hypoxia-ischemia in the absence of blood culture-positive sepsis.
The induction of sepsis-associated blood C-reactive protein (CRP) and the pro-inflammatory cytokine IL-6 in response to MRSA infection was also suppressed in pigs that received Epi-1.
(2) CRP and WBC were unable to predict sepsis (P > 0.05 for all), while PCT and NEU% could predict sepsis with areas under the curve (AUC) of 0.838 and 0.691, respectively (P < 0.05 for all).
Serum levels of C-reactive protein (CRP) as biomarker endpoint and recovery of sepsis as clinical endpoint were used to compare treatment responses between groups.
It was not inferior to other laboratory values, including activated partial thromboplastin time (AUC: 0.729), C-reactive protein (AUC: 0.727), albumin (AUC: 0.834), prothrombin time (AUC: 0.816), and creatinine (AUC: 0.837) known to be associated with sepsis.
In conclusion, 1,25(OH)D but not 25(OH)D showed a minor discriminatory value for the prediction of bacteraemia that was inferior to CRP and PCT but both failed to predict sepsis and mortality in a prospective cohort of SIRS patients.
