  3. Erythema nodosum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erythema_nodosum

    The ESR is typically high, the C-reactive protein elevated, and the blood showing an increase in white blood cells. [4] The ESR is initially very high and falls as the nodules of erythema nodosum. The ASO titer is high in cases associated with a streptococcal throat infection.

  4. Hypermetabolism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypermetabolism

    Hypermetabolism is defined as an elevated resting energy expenditure (REE) > 110% of predicted REE. [1] Hypermetabolism is accompanied by a variety of internal and external symptoms, most notably extreme weight loss, and can also be a symptom in itself. This state of increased metabolic activity can signal underlying issues, especially ...

  5. Hyperproteinemia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperproteinemia

    Normal total protein levels are not sufficient to rule out multiple myeloma or other malignant paraproteinemias, but they may also be the cause of moderate-to-marked hyperproteinemia. To determine the reason behind the elevated serum total protein, a serum protein electrophoresis should be carried out. [2] clinical significance

  6. Systemic inflammation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Systemic_inflammation

    Chronic systemic inflammation (SI) is the result of release of pro-inflammatory cytokines from immune-related cells and the chronic activation of the innate immune system.It can contribute to the development or progression of certain conditions such as cardiovascular disease, cancer, diabetes mellitus, chronic kidney disease, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, autoimmune and neurodegenerative ...

  7. Spondyloarthritis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spondyloarthritis

    Laboratory abnormalities in spondyloarthritis are nonspecific and less effective for diagnosing a specific disease than clinical presentation. Normochromic normocytic anemia, increased C reactive protein, and erythrocyte sedimentation rate are frequently present nonspecific indicators. [27]

  8. Eosinopenia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eosinopenia

    The use of eosinopenia as a diagnostic tool in sepsis is debatable. [10] Although there is a high incidence of eosinopenia in sepsis, it is not more effective as a biomarker than more commonly utilized indicators of sepsis, such as procalcitonin (PCT) and C-reactive protein (CRP) . [ 10 ]

  9. Elevated alkaline phosphatase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elevated_alkaline_phosphatase

    Elevated levels are also associated with diabetes, hypertension, and cardiovascular disease; it was found that elevated levels are associated with elevated serum C-reactive protein (CRP), which could reflect an inflammatory and atherogenic milieu, possibly an alternative cause for elevated serum alkaline phosphatase. [10] Chronic kidney disease ...
