The median CRP and PCT levels of the infections group were 5.65 mg/dL and 1.5 ng/mL respectively, and those without infections had a significantly lower median CRP of 3.03 mg/dL and median PCT of 0.7 ng/mL (p = 0.002 and p < 0.001, respectively) (Table 1). The gene discussed is CRP; the disease is infection.
