“…However, it has some limitations compared to PCT, such as its ability to be elevated even in non-infected and stressed states, and it is only clinically meaningful to be elevated 12 hours after the onset of inflammation, which affects its clinical specificity. 17 A study showed 18 a positive correlation between CRP levels and the degree of infection. In the present study, CRP levels in the observation group with complications were significantly higher than those in the control group without complications, which is consistent with clinical studies.…”

Objective: To investigate the levels of white blood cell count (WBC), procalcitonin (PCT), C-reactive protein (CRP) and erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) in patients with acute community-acquired lower respiratory tract infections and the value of their combined detection in predicting the occurrence of complications. Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 218 patients with acute community-acquired lower respiratory tract infections admitted to Baoding No.1 Central Hospital from January 2021 to December 2021. All patients were divided into two groups according to the presence of complications during treatment: the group with complications (observation group) and the group without complications (control group). The treatment situation of the two groups was compared, and their levels of WBC, PCT, CRP and ESR were quantitatively detected and compared. Results: Patients in the observation group were hospitalized for significantly longer days than those in the control group (P<0.05), and their combined pleural effusion percentage and oxygen uptake rate were higher than those in the control group (P<0.05). The levels of WBC, PCT, CRP and ESR in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group at admission, with statistically significant differences (P<0.05). Moreover, the positive rates of WBC, PCT, CRP and ESR in the observation group were higher than those in the control group in the single detection and the combined detection (P<0.05). Conclusions: The combined detection of WBC, PCT, CRP and ESR has substantial predictive value in predicting the occurrence of complications in patients with community-acquired lower respiratory tract infections. doi: https://doi.org/10.12669/pjms.40.3.7699 How to cite this: Riaz A, Sughra U, Jawaid SA, Masood J.
