متن کاملSpontaneous bacterial peritonitis with a very high leukocyte count in ascitic fluid caused by Haemophilus influenzae
We report on a case of spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (SBP) due to Haemophilus influenzae (H. influenzae) in an elderly patient with alcoholic cirrhosis. The patient presented with a 5 day history of fever, cough, and fatigue. Abdominal paracentesis revealed a very high neutrophil count (134,800 cells/μL). Secondary peritonitis and abdominal abscess were ruled out. Peritoneal fluid culture d...
متن کاملStudy on ascitic fluid protein level in cirrhotic patients with spontaneous bacterial peritonitis.
Complement 3 is an important component of ascitic fluid total protein, which offers local defence against infection of the ascitic fluid. Hepatic synthesis of complement 3 as well as other proteins and their concentrations in ascitic fluid is significantly reduced in patients with advanced cirrhosis. The level of protein in ascitic fluid in cirrhotic patients with spontaneous bacterial peritoni...
متن کاملRole of Serial Ascitic Fluid Analysis and Other Prognostic Factors in Spontaneous Bacterial Peritonitis
Introduction: Cirrhosis of the liver is one of the commonly encountered liver disorders in clinical practice caused by a wide variety of etiologies. It is defined anatomically as a diffuse process of nodule formation and fibrosis in the liver. Spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (SBP) is defined by infection of the previously sterile ascitic fluid (AF), without any apparent intra-abdominal source...
متن کاملMid-Trimester Amniotic Fluid High Sensitive C-Reactive Protein Level in the Prediction of Preterm Delivery
Background and Objectives: Preterm labor is a serious problem in obstetrics, accounting for 70% of perinatal mortality. High sensitive C - reactive protein (HS-CRP) is a sensitive marker of Inflammation. Our aim in this study was to determine Amniotic fluid hs-CRP concentration and its correlation with pre-Term delivery. Materials and methods: This prospective study was conducted on 90 p...
