Cytokine Activation Patterns and Biomarkers Are Influenced by Microorganisms in Community-Acquired Pneumonia

BACKGROUND: The inflammatory response in community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) depends on the host and on the challenge of the causal microorganism. Here, we analyze the patterns of inflammatory cytokines, procalcitonin (PCT), and C-reactive protein (CRP) in order to determine their diagnostic value. M...
