THE DYNAMICS OF C-REACTIVE PROTEIN IN PATIENTS WITH DIFFERENT INFECTIOUS DISEASES

Abstract

During coccal, viral, and bacillary infections the frequency of detecting CRP in the blood serum of patients was approximately the same. CRP appears in the acute phase of various infectious diseases and does not serve as a specific index of a pathological process for specific groups of infections. The concentration of CRP in the blood serum depends on the severity of the infectious disease and is found in direct dependency on other indices of inflammatory phenomena in the tissues of the organism (ESR, bilirubin, activity of aldonase and transaminase of the blood). During aggravation and complication of the infectious disease, CRP appears again in the blood serum.
