Abstract
CRP levels in 194 serum samples from 43 SLE patients were measured. Patients with inactive disease have levels below 10 μg/ml; patients with active SLE have higher levels, but never over 50 μg/ml. In the presence of infection or inflammatory processes, regardless of the activity of SLE, the levels are significantly higher (p.This publication has 19 references indexed in Scilit:
