In total, 194 patients had a PJI; 394 were considered aseptic failures and 33 were inconclusive. Synovial CRP showed an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.951 (95% CI, 0.932-0.970) with 74.2% sensitivity...
Synovial CRP demonstrated excellent accuracy when used to determine the presence of PJI. There was a good correlation between serum and synovial CRP levels in revision arthroplasty patients and the co...
Little is known about the correlation between perioperative concentrations of inflammatory biomarkers and postoperative complications. This study explored whether the plasma concentrations and periope...

A tertiary hospital in China....
A total of 498 patients aged ≥65 years from a prospective cohort who underwent elective non-cardiac surgery between June 2020 and April 2021....
The primary outcomes were the efficacy of plasma concentrations of PCT, CRP and hsCRP in predicting the risk of Clavien-Dindo Classification (CDC) ≥grade 3 and major complications. The major complicat...
For major complications, the area under the curve (AUC) (95% CI) of PCT-24 hours, PCT change and PCT change rate were 0.750 (0.698 to 0.803), 0.740 (0.686 to 0.795) and 0.711 (0.651 to 0.771), respect...
PCT-24 hours, CRP-24 hours, the change of perioperative PCT and CRP were valuable predictors of major complications occurring within 30 days after non-cardiac surgery in the elderly....

The aim of the study was to describe psittacosis pneumonia and to assess the predictive value of the C-reactive protein/albumin ratio in psittacosis pneumonia for severity....
Data on psittacosis pneumonia cases diagnosed using metagenomic sequencing were collected from three hospitals in Shanghai, China from Oct. 2019 to Oct. 2022. Serum levels of C-reactive protein and al...
A total of 27 patients with psittacosis pneumonia were enrolled, with an average age of 62 years and 70.4% being male. 44.4% of patients had a clear history of contact with poultry or birds. The predo...
Elevated serum CAR levels were found to be associated with a greater risk of severe psittacosis pneumonia. Consequently, it may serve as an uncomplicated and useful diagnostic tool for clinicians to p...
To test the association of C-reactive protein (CRP) with all-cause and cause-specific mortality in people with gout....
This cohort study included 502 participants with gout from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. Multivariate Cox regression analysis, subgroup analysis, and restricted cubic spline (R...
After adjusting for multiple variables, Cox regression analysis showed that compared with individuals in the lowest tertile of CRP levels, those in the middle and highest tertiles experienced increase...
CRP levels were associated with increased all-cause and cancer mortality among individuals with gout....
The role of postoperative of the ratio of c-reactive protein to albumin (CRP/Alb ratio) in the prognosis of gastric cancer is rarely evaluated. Our purpose was to investigate the correlation of the po...
We enrolled 430 patients who suffered from radical gastrectomy. The commonly used inflammatory indices, clinical-pathological characteristics and oncologic outcomes were recorded. The median was used ...
In univariate analysis, there were significant differences were observed in overall survival (OS) according to perioperative CRP/Alb ratio, c-reactive protein (CRP), serum albumin (Alb), respectively....
Postoperative inflammatory factors in patients with gastric cancer should be pay attention, especially postoperative CRP/Alb ratio may be an independent predictor of long-term prognosis of gastric can...
Anastomotic leak results in increased morbidity and affects functional and oncological outcomes after colectomy. Measurement of C-reactive protein (CRP) allows early detection of anastomotic leaks. Th...
Patients with an anastomotic fistula after elective colorectal surgery from 2010 to 2020 were included. Three periods were defined according to progressive adherence to the CRP protocol in our departm...
Out of 2655 elective colorectal operations, 171 patients presented with an anastomotic leak and 123 patients were included in the study. In univariate analysis, patients in the 'after' group had fewer...
A CRP-based protocol for the screening of anastomotic leaks after colorectal surgery was related to increased anastomotic conservation, a decreased impact and severity of the leak and a shorter length...
Periodontitis is associated with elevated C-reactive protein (CRP) levels. Although the coexistence of periodontitis and elevated CRP levels may heighten the risk of mortality, previous studies have n...
C-reactive protein has been reported as a biomarker of inflammation caused by acute injury, infection or tissue damage and also a prediction marker of cardiovascular diseases. Commonly, the gold stand...
Due to the superhydrophobic PDMS, droplets of reagent and sample solutions were obtained when pipetting all solutions onto the PDMS substrate. These droplets were individually controlled by an externa...
By individually controlling the droplet movement using an external magnet, all steps of immunoassays were simply and rapidly performed. In addition, the microfluidic format allows for small volumes of...
C-reactive protein (CRP) is a protein biomarker for acute phase response. Herein, we fabricate a highly sensitive electrochemical immunosensor for CRP on a screen-printed carbon electrode (SPCE) with ...
Postoperative delirium (POD) is a common complication in operative patients. Neuroinflammation has been reported to be a potential mechanism associated with the development of POD. Identifying availab...
643 patients with CRC were included in this study. CRP levels were measured before operation and on postoperative day 1. The univariate and multivariate regression analyses were used to identify risk ...
