CRP and Sepsis: In fact, SDMA levels correlated with white blood cell counts (0.190, P = 0.003), C-reactive protein (r = 0.261, P < 0.001), procalcitonin (r = 0.407, P < 0.001), tumor necrosis factor (r = 0.324, P = 0.004), and soluble urokinase plasminogen activator receptor (suPAR, r = 0.494, P < 0.001), a prognostic biomarker in sepsis [20].
