At admission, laboratory tests showed leukocytosis (White Blood Cells, 16,540 cells/mmc), thrombocytosis (Platelets, 569,000 cells/mmc), increased C-reactive protein (CRP; 10.74 mg/dL), and acute kidney injury (AKI), as well as risk stage according to the RIFLE criteria (serum creatinine increased by 0.4 to 0.7 mg/dL, eGFR 9 mL/min/1.73 m2 with revised Schwartz equation). The gene discussed is CRP; the disease is acute kidney injury.
