The blood and urine examinations showed elevated white blood cells (12,900 cells/μL), C-reactive protein level (13.1 mg/dL) and proteinase 3-anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (PR3-ANCA) level (11.0 IU/mL), severe anemia (hemoglobin: 6.1 g/dL) and renal dysfunction [estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR): 12.7 ml/min.1.78 m2 with hematuria and proteinuria]. Here, CRP is linked to anemia.
