PC was positively correlated with the absolute monocyte count (R = 0.33, P = 0.0088) and monocyte percentage (R = 0.37, P = 0.0035) in sepsis patients, and negatively correlated with commonly used clinical inflammatory markers CRP (R=-0.48, P = 1e-04) and PCT (R=-0.36, P = 0.0056) (Figure 6g). Here, CRP is linked to Sepsis.
