In this study, our results that elevated CRP and ESR had moderate efficiency to detect active endoscopic inflammation in IBD patients are consistent with previous studies. For PCT, to date only two studies, with small simple size, evaluated the correlation between PCT and endoscopic activity score, and controversial results were achieved[24,25].

The burden of stroke on the community is best reflected by the incidence. There is increasing mortality and morbidity with stroke. It has been found convincingly that in ischemic stroke, there will be rise in acute phase reactants like C- Reactive protein(1),(2),(3) and ESR.
CRP
Traditionally the erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) was a test that was used for the above indications, however CRP has a number of advantages, including: The levels will rise and fall more quickly in response to infection and inflammation than will the ESR. CRP levels begin to rise within 6 hours of an acute inflammatory response in the body.

All CRP assays measure the same protein. High sensitivity (hs) CRP is a designation given to laboratory assays able to measure CRP levels below 5 mg/L. Laboratories reporting CRP values less than 5 mg/L are using an hsCRP assay. CRP and hsCRP perform equally well for the diagnosis and monitoring of infectious and other inflammatory conditions.

Recent studies have shown that C-reactive protein (CRP) and Erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) serum levels in patients with periodontal disease are elevated.3,4. The erythrocyte sedimentation rate is a strong predictor of coronary heart disease mortality, and appears to be a marker of aggressive forms of coronary heart disease.
