Elevated serum procalcitonin levels in patients with melioidosis.
The prognostic value of serum procalcitonin levels in 43 patients with acute melioidosis, an infection with a wide range of clinical manifestations, was assessed. In eight patients with mild localized infections, the median procalcitonin levels were 0.13 ng/mL (range, 0.02-0.46 ng/mL), which were si...
