Association between Procalcitonin (PCT) and C-reactive protein (CRP) and burn injury was evaluated in 80 burned patients from Al-Kindy and Imam Ali hospitals in Baghdad-Iraq. Patients were divided into two groups, survivor group 56 (70%) and non-survivor group 24 (30%). PCT was estimated using (Human Procalcitonin ELISA kit) provided by RayBio/USA while CRP was performed using a latex agglutination kit from Chromatest (Spain). Our results declared that the mean of Total Body Surface Area (TBSA %) affected were 63.5% range (36%–95%) in non-survivor patients, while 26.5% range (10%–70%) in survivor patients. There is a significant difference between the two groups (P = 0.00), the higher mean percentage of TBSA has a significant association with mortality. Serum PCT and CRP were measured at the three times of sampling (within the first 48hr following admission, after 5thdays and after 10th days). The mean of PCT serum concentrations in non-survivor group (2638 ± 3013pg/ml) were higher than that of survivor group (588 ± 364pg/ml). Significantly high levels of CRP were found between the survivor and non-survivor groups especially in the 10th day of admission P=0.000, present study show that significant differences is found within the non-survivor group through the three times P= 0.01, while results were near to significant differences within survivor group through the three times (P= 0.05).

Background: Meningitis, is a potentially life-threatening condition that can rapidly progress to permanent brain damage, neurologic problems, and even death. Bacteria and viruses cause the great majority of meningitis disease in infants and children. CRP is used mainly as a marker of inflammation.Objective: This study was conducted to assess the diagnostic value of CSF-CRP levels for differentiating between septic (bacterial) and aseptic infantile meningitis.Methods: 49 hospitalized infants aged less than two months with suspected meningitis were enrolled in a cross-sectional analytic study. All of patients underwent lumbar puncture to obtain CSF. smears, cultures, cytological and biochemical analysis and latex agglutination testing were carried out on all CSF samples. Latex agglutination test was carried out on all CSF samples using a commercially available kit. CSF-CRP level of all infants was measured using the immunoturbidometric technique.Results: Of 49 infants in this study, 20 and 29 cases were diagnosed as septic and aseptic meningitis, respectively. The CRP levels were obtained as 0.95±0.68 mg/L in septic and 0.16±0.36 mg/L in aseptic meningitis groups and this difference was statistically significant (p<0.001) between the two groups (0.79±0.32 mg/L). Based on the ROC curve, cut off levels for CRP was obtained 0.17 mg/L. At this level, there was 95% sensitivity and 86% specificity to differentiate septic and aseptic meningitis.Conclusion: CSF-CRP has suitable diagnostic value in distinguishing between infantile bacterial from aseptic meningitis especially in cases of negative bacterial culture of the blood and spinal fluid.Keywords: C-reactive protein, cerebrospinal fluid, septic/aseptic meningitis, infant, diagnostic value.

Kondisi Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome (SIRS) berkebahyaan terjadinya sepsis dan kegagalan multi organ. Inflamasidapat menyebabkan terjadinya redistribusi zinc ke jaringan sehingga terjadi penurunan kadar zinc plasma. Kadar CRP pada SIRSmeningkat sebagai respons peningkatan protein tahap akut. Tujuan penelitian ini untuk mengetahui apakah kadar zinc dan CRP serummerupakan faktor kebahayaan kematian di pasien SIRS. Penelitian observasional analitik dengan pendekatan kohort prospektif di 30pasien SIRS berusia 27–64 tahun. Kadar zinc serum diperiksa dengan metode atomic absorbance spectrophotometer (AAS) dan CRPserum dengan metode latex agglutination immunoassay menggunakan alat autoanaliser. Kejadian kematian subjek dinilai setelah 28hari perawatan. Data dilakukan uji statistik Chi-Kwadrat, bila tidak memenuhi maka dilakukan uji alternatif Fisher. Besarnya nilaifaktor kebahyaan dilakukan perhitungan kebahayaan relatif. Rerata kadar zinc dan CRP berturut-turut 81,24 ± 8,72 μg/dL, dan 8,13± 8,12 mg/dL. Kematian dalam 28 hari adalah 33,3%. Penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa kadar zinc plasma < 80 μg/dL bukanmerupakan faktor kebahayaan terjadinya kematian (p=0,114), sedangkan kadar CRP ≥ 10 mg/dL merupakan faktor kebahayaanterjadinya kematian di pasien SIRS (RR=3,28, 95% CI 1,33-8,13, p=0,015). Kadar zinc plasma bukan merupakan faktor kebahayaanterjadinya kematian pada SIRS, sedangkan kadar CRP merupakan faktor kebahayaan terjadinya kematian di pasien SIRS.
