Predictive value of C-reactive protein to albumin ratio as a biomarker for initial and repeated intravenous immunoglobulin resistance in a large cohort of Kawasaki disease patients: a prospective cohort study

Predictive value of C-reactive protein to albumin ratio as a biomarker for initial and repeated intravenous immunoglobulin resistance in a large cohort of Kawasaki disease patients: a prospective cohort study

Abstract Background Intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) resistance prediction is one pivotal topic of interests in Kawasaki disease (KD). This study aimed to prospectively investigated the value of C-reactive protein-to-albumin (CAR) in predicting both initial and repeated IVIG resistance in patients...
