CRP and Sepsis: The correlation between SOFA and CRP was inferior to the one with presepsin (r = 0.632, 95%CI = 0.507–0.730, p < 0.001), but the strong correlation between CRP and presepsin (r = 0.764, 95%CI = 0.675–0.831, p < 0.001) may suggest a connection between presepsin and the systemic inflammatory state induced by sepsis, indicating that there may be a deeper underlying relationship between the two that correlates with the severity of the inflammatory response in patients with sepsis.
