[Immunochemical tests for the risk of inflammatory diseases].
Immunochemical measurements of the blood serum acute-phase proteins (APP)--C-reactive, pregnancy-related alpha 2-glycoprotein, lactoferrin, immunoglobulins A, M, and G, carried out in 153 healthy men and 46 children, has revealed that an elevated level of at least one, and, more so, of two or three APP evidences the presence of an inflammatory process in the examinee. In a number of cases enhanced APP production correlated with a marked reduction of IgA and IgG concentrations. Measurements of APP may be employed as available laboratory screening markers of nonspecific latent inflammation in adults and children.
