Association of CRP and LBP changes in the plasma concentration from one time point of observation to the other during 14 days after onset of sepsis.

Data represent the percentage of increases and decreases in CRP levels from one to the next observation that were accompanied by concomitant increases or decreases in LBP levels over all patients and time points measured. Changes of CRP and LBP levels in the same direction (concordance) occurred in 76%, changes in the opposite direction (discordance) in 24% of all cases.
