  3. Ceruloplasmin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ceruloplasmin

    Ceruloplasmin is the major copper-carrying protein in the blood, and in addition plays a role in iron metabolism. It was first described in 1948. [ 8 ] Another protein, hephaestin , is noted for its homology to ceruloplasmin, and also participates in iron and probably copper metabolism.

  4. Acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acute_generalized...

    The skin eruptions are often pruritic and accompanied by fever, headache, a high number of neutrophils and eosinophils in the blood, and elevated blood levels of markers for inflammation (i.e. erythrocyte sedimentation rate and C-reactive protein). The skin eruptions typically end within a week after causative drug is discontinued. [3]

  6. Acute prostatitis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acute_prostatitis

    Since bacteria causing the prostatitis is easily recoverable from the urine, prostate massage is not required to make the diagnosis. Rectal palpation usually reveals an enlarged, exquisitely tender, swollen prostate gland, which is firm, warm, and, occasionally, irregular to the touch. C-reactive protein is elevated in most cases. [4]

  7. Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hemophagocytic_lymphohist...

    The serum C reactive protein, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, and ferritin level are markedly elevated. In children, a ferritin above 10000 μg/L is very sensitive and specific for the diagnosis of HLH, [ 17 ] however, the diagnostic utility for ferritin is less for adult HLH patients.

  8. Hypermetabolism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypermetabolism

    The most important up-regulated protein is C-reactive protein, which can rapidly increase 20- to 1,000-fold during the acute phase. Hypermetabolism also causes expedited catabolism of carbohydrates , proteins , and triglycerides in order to meet the increased metabolic demands.

  9. 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 ...
