Journal ArticleDOI
Serum Procalcitonin and C-Reactive Protein Levels as Markers of Bacterial Infection: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis
TL;DR: The diagnostic accuracy of PCT markers was higher than that of CRP markers among patients hospitalized for suspected bacterial infections and had a higher positive likelihood ratio and lower negative likelihood ratio than didCRP markers in both groups.
Journal ArticleDOI
Erratum: Serum procalcitonin and C-reactive protein levels as markers of bacterial infection: A systematic review and meta-analysis (Clinical Infectious Diseases (July 15, 2004) 39 (206-217))
Journal ArticleDOI
Procalcitonin and C-reactive protein as markers of bacterial infection in critically ill children at onset of systemic inflammatory response syndrome.
TL;DR: Procalcitonin is better than C-reactive protein for differentiating bacterial from nonbacterial SIRS in critically ill children, although the accuracy of both tests is moderate.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fasting plasma glucose versus glucose challenge test: screening for gestational diabetes and cost effectiveness.
TL;DR: The GCT is better than the FPG in the population and is cost effective and the GCT yielded a better specificity than theFPG and the FCG for a comparable level of sensitivity.
