Procalcitonin as a sepsis marker: experience of an intensive care setting in Malaysia

Introduction: During infection, there is increased expression of CALC-I gene resulting in ubiquitous release of procalcitonin (PCT). Since the expression of PCT is dependent on the genetic constituents of a population, this study aimed to validate the diagnostic performance of PCT in differentiating...
