Monocyte distribution width (MDW) as a new tool for the prediction of sepsis in critically ill patients: a preliminary investigation in an intensive care unit
Background: Monocyte Distribution Width (MDW), a simple proxy marker of innate monocyte activation, can be
used for the early recognition of sepsis along with Procalcitonin. This study explored the added value of MDW as
an early predictor of…

Study of C-reactive protein, procalcitonin, and immunocyte ratios in 194 patients with sepsis
Background: Evidence suggests that C-reactive protein (CRP), procalcitonin (PCT), and immune cells can predict sepsis
severity in adult patients. However, the specific values of these indicators are not consistent in predicting prognosis.
Methods:…

Clinical Research Procalcitonin Prognostic Value in Predicting Mortality among Adult Patients with Sepsis due to Gram-Negative Bacteria
BACKGROUND Sepsis is a leading cause of mortality and morbidity globally. Gram-
negative bacteremia was reported to have a high risk of septic shock and poor
prognosis. This study aimed to evaluate the role of procalcitonin in predicting…
