  • Title: [The diagnostic value of changes in the kallikrein-kinin system indices in patients with acute pancreatitis].

    Journal: Khirurgiia (Sofiia); 1999; 54(1):5-7. PubMed ID: 10878878.
    Abstract:
    It is the purpose of the work to assay retrospectively the diagnostic value of KKS indicators--PK, KG, alpha 1-AT; alpha 2-MG, KOP N and plasminogen in the blood--studied in dynamics at 1, 3, 5, 7, 9 and 14 days after admission. For the purpose the percentage of patients showing abnormal values of the total number of cases being examined, with certain diagnosis acute pancreatitis and severity of the clinical form, is calculated. The highest is the rate of abnormal values for PK, next ranking KG, alpha 1-AT, KOP N and plasminogen the least. Presumably, PK and KG are adequate markers accurately mirroring the essence and dynamic pattern of the pathological process in acute pancreatitis patients.
