Procalcitonin – a new marker for the acute-phase reaction in acute pancreatitis

Langenbecks Archiv für Chirurgie, 1997
Procalcitonin is a protein which is found in elevated concentrations in the blood circulation during systemic bacterial, fungal or protozoal infection. In contrast to classical acute-phase proteins like C-reactive protein or interleukin-6, it is not elevated after operative trauma.

[Acute phase reaction in acute viral hepatitis].

Padiatrie und Padologie, 1990
We investigated serum concentrations of acute-phase-proteins (alpha 1-antitrypsin (alpha 1-AT), alpha 1-acid glycoprotein (alpha 1-sGP) and C-reactive protein (CRP)), and of complement components C3 and C4 during the course of acute hepatitis A and hepatitis B and correlated it to age and sex of the patients. Whereas a small increase of all three acute-

The role of the acute phase reaction in inflammation

Agents and Actions, 1976
Inflammation and injury to tissue results in a variety of local and systemic events, however although the local events of oedema formation and cellular infiltration have received considerably more attention the systemic response to inflammation is no less profound.

High serum ferritin post partum: An acute phase reaction

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, 1993
The purpose of the study was to examine the cause of the increased serum ferritin post‐partum observed previously. B‐hemoglobin, B‐leucocytes, S‐ferritin, erythrocyte protoporphyrin and S‐orosomucoid were dermined in the blood of 21 pregnant women in the 39th week of pregnancy, two to four days and six weeks after delivery. The S‐ferritin was increased

The acute phase reaction syndrome: the acute phase reactants (a review).

Acta microbiologica et immunologica Hungarica, 1999
The acute phase reaction of the organism, which determines the response that follows the injury of tissues and organs and helps the survival of the individual is reviewed. The main participants, the induction of the reaction and the regulatory mechanisms are shortly discussed, with special respect to the prominent role of interleukin-6.

[Acute phase reaction in severe injuries].

Sbornik lekarsky, 2003
This study observes acute phase response in first time after injury.Injured patients are already in first timepiece up severe injury in worse general state developed acute phase response than control group before planed surgery. Levels of indicators acute phase response and haemostasis from venous blood samples collected in an injury day and at ...

Regulation of acute phase reaction in rat adjuvant arthritis

Agents and Actions, 1986
Local low dose injection of actinomycin D into the inflamed tissue as well as administration of a glucocorticoid antagonist is apparently suitable for investigating the regulation of acute phase reactionin vivo. The acute phase protein synthesis in the liver is apparently triggered by several factors derived from the inflamed tissue, not only by one ...

[Acute phase reaction following bisphosphonates.]

Clinical calcium, 2017
Bisphosphonates are effective in decreasing bone resorption, the incidence of fragility fracure, and pain from bone metastases. Although relatively well tolerated, the initial dose(s)of intravenous or oral monthly aminobisphosphonates can be associated with an acute phase response, a nonspecific physiologic reaction associated with increased levels of ...

Acute and “chronic” phase reaction—a mother of disease

Clinical Nutrition, 2004
The world is increasingly threatened by a global epidemic of chronic diseases. Almost half of the global morbidity and almost two thirds of global mortality is due to these diseases-approximately 35 million die each year from chronic diseases. And they continue to increase.
