Relationship between scoring systems and inflammatory parameters with mortality in pneumonia: Acute Phase Reactant Index is new index
It was determined that Acute Phase Reactant Index is a better predictor of mortality than all other scores and inflammatory indices in community-acquired pneumonia. This suggests that the Acute Phase Reactant Index may be used as a prognostic factor in high-mortality lung diseases such as cancer.
