Park et al. analyzed 107 and 255 patients with SFTS and scrub typhus, respectively [7], to propose an SFTS prediction scoring system considering parameters such as leukopenia (WBC count <4000/mm3), thrombocytopenia (PLT count <80,000/mm3), and low CRP level (<1 mg/dL). The gene discussed is CRP; the disease is Thrombocytopenia.
