Markers of acute inflammation in assessing and managing lower respiratory tract infections: focus on procalcitonin. Clin Microbiol Infect. 2006; 12 (Suppl 9):8–16.Muller B, Prat C: Markers of acute inflammation in assessing and managing lower respiratory tract infections: focus on procalcitonin ....
This study indicates that glycosylation of immunoglobulin G, the most abundant antibody in human blood, may convey useful information with regard to inflammation and metabolic health. IgG occurs in the form of different subclasses, of which the effector functions show significant variation. Our method...
OBJECTIVE: To examine the relationship between the isolation of coagulase-negative Staphylococcus in blood cultures and acute phase markers of inflammation.METHODS: The present study was a prospective observational analysis conducted at three medical/surgical intensive care units (ICUs) involving adult pati...
Inflammation as a consequence of multiple acute and chronic disorders in humans and animals is part of the normal innate immune response. However, when inflammation occurs in an uncontrolled manner, it can persist and excessive damage of host tissues and chronic inflammatory diseases such as osteoarth...
Inflammation markers in point-of-care testing (POCT) Inflammation is a central issue in medicine. Inflammatory processes may be local or systemic, acute or chronic, and they may be benign or fatal. In bacteri... AP Schleicher - 《Analytical & Bioanalytical Chemistry》 被引量: 155发表: 2009...
Patients poisoned with drugs and nonpharmaceutical substances are frequently admitted from the emergency department (ED) to a medical or ICU department. We hypothesized that biomarkers of inflammatio...
On the other hand, diets with a low glycemic index and load or high in whole grains have been associated with decreased concentrations of inflammation markers (4). Low-grade inflammation has been implicated in obesity and in the development of comorbidities, such as the metabolic syndrome, T2DM...
Effects of long-chain omega-3 (LCn3) and omega-6 fatty acids on prevention and treatment of inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD, including Crohn’s Disease, CD and ulcerative colitis, UC), and inflammation are unclear. We systematically reviewed long-term effects of omega-3, omega-6 and total...

WO2007/104537A2 describes methods for assessing acute transplant rejection. Some of the gene expression products are also known to play a role in neovascularisation and inflammation: WO2007/096142A2 describes vascular tumor markers, such as versican, and a method for identifying diseases associated ...
