This article covers the topic "Inflammatory markers and their diagnostic significance in acute inflammation". The article analyzes in detail the physiological basis of inflammatory processes, clinical manifestations of acute inflammation and the role of diagnostic markers. In particular, information is provided about inflammatory markers such as C-reactive protein, procalcitonin, pentraxin 3 and serum amyloid A. These markers are important in determining the intensity, cause and prognosis of inflammation. The article highlights the clinical significance of these markers in the effective management and treatment of inflammatory processes.
