Abstract

Objective:To investigate the changes of the serum level of C-reactive protein(CRP) in patients with acute cerebral infarction and its relationship to the severity of cerebral infarction.Methods:The serum level of CRP in 63 patients and 24 healthy persons was determined.All the patients were scored by clinic neurological deficit scale(NDS),and compared in groups.Results:The serum level of CRP in the patients was significantly higher than that in normal controls(P0.01) and it was significantly higher in the serious group than in the middle and mild groups(P0.01).Conclusions:The serum level of CRP is closely correlated with the severity of cerebral infarction.
