The patient arrived at Pisa University Hospital sedated and in endotracheal intubation; laboratory data showed normal white blood cells count (8470/mcl) with absolute neutrophilia and lymphopenia (7340/mcl and 640/mcl, respectively) and increased plasma levels of C-reactive protein (CRP, 11.63 mg/dL) and procalcitonine (PCT, 5.53 ng/mL) as well as increased levels of nt-proBNP (17,531 ng/L), high sensitivity troponins (1084 ng/L), CPK-MB (22.2 U/L) and myoglobin (238 g/L). This evidence concerns the gene CRP and lymphopenia.
