Journal ArticleDOI

High plasma levels of nitrogen oxides are associated with severe disease and correlate with rapid parasitological and clinical cure in Plasmodium falciparum malaria

TL;DR: Plasma levels of nitrogen oxide, neopterin and CRP were compared in 3 groups of Gabonese patients with Plasmodium falciparum malaria before and after therapy to provide further evidence for the protective role of NO in malaria.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prediction of accelerated cure in Plasmodium falciparum malaria by the elevated capacity of tumor necrosis factor production.

TL;DR: A high TNF production capacity during the acute phase of malaria predicted a rapid clinical and parasitologic cure in the patients, illustrating the dual role of TNF in the protection and pathology of malaria.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cytokine Profile and Correlation to the APACHE III and MPM II Scores in Patients with Sepsis

TL;DR: A significant decrease of the APACHE III scores, IL-6, and CRP levels was observed over the study period in the survivor group only, while neither the dynamics of TNF-alpha nor IL-12 plasma levels contributed to the risk estimation of mortality.
Journal ArticleDOI

Reciprocal Regulation of Th1- and Th2-Cytokine-Producing T Cells during Clearance of Parasitemia in Plasmodium falciparum Malaria

TL;DR: A more pronounced Th2-driven immune response during acute untreated P. falciparum infection with a shift towards Th1 responsiveness induced by parasite clearance is suggested.
Journal ArticleDOI

Increased Serum Concentration of Soluble CD14 Is a Prognostic Marker in Gram-Positive Sepsis

TL;DR: The serum level of sCD14 could be proven to be a good prognostic marker in the course of Gram-positive sepsis and increased levels are associated with a high mortality.
