title: Neopterin and other inflammatory markers in the early period following allogeneic bone marrow transplantation: series of 3 cases.
abstract: The 3 case reports presented here constitute a pilot study assessing the profile of changes in concentrations of selected inflammatory markers, including C-reactive protein, serum amyloid A, neopterin, and interleukin 18, in an early period after allogeneic stem cell transplantation.
