title: [Clinical significance of the parameters of a systemic inflammatory response, leukocytic intoxication index, and procalcitonin test in the diagnosis of pyodestructive pyelonephritis of pregnant women].
abstract: The clinical significance of the parameters of a systemic inflammatory response, leukocytic intoxication index, and procalcitonin test were studied in 63 patients with pyodestructive pyelonephritis of pregnant women. The blood concentration of procalcitonin was measured in 15 patients, by using the semiquantitative analysis. The authors revealed the high sensitivity and specificity of the method and the high prognostic value of positive results and the low frequency of false-positive results for procalcitonin and the leukocytic index of intoxication.
