Study on serum CRP level of patient with infection allergic bronchial asthma

ABSTRACT

In the year 1999 at Bach Mai Hospital, serum CRP level was quantified on 21 patients with allergic bronchial asthma without bacterial infection and 38 associated with bacterial infections.In patients of infected allergic bronchial asthma the positive rate of serum CRP was 115,2+/- 6,03 in average, higher than in non infected ones. After treatment, CRP level reduced with statistical significant. In 90,48% of cases of simple allergic bronchial asthma, white blood cell count was normal, while in 92,12% of infected cases, white blood cell count enhanced. There was a positively proportional relation between diverse indices determining inflammative status in the group of patients with infected bronchial asthma
