 PAGE \* MERGEFORMAT 11 Combined detection of CRP and PCT levels and the prognosis of acute pancreatitis [Abstract] of Serum C-reactive protein (CRP, procalcitonin (PCT levels in acute pancreatitis (AP) classification and prognosis significance. Methods immune turbidimetric method using CRP levels, double-antibody sandwich luminescence determination of the level of immune .67 cases of PCT in patients with AP, the mild group (MAP26 cases, heavy (SAP 21 patients without infection, SAP and 20 patients with infection. Results 2 SAP group CRP levels were higher than MAP group, the peak appears in the first 2 days, was statistically significant (P lt;0.01). SAP and the PCT infection group was higher than the other two groups, the peak appeared in the first 7 days, was statistically significant (P lt;0.01). PCT levels with the infection control and decreased significantly contribute to prognosis. Conclusion CRP and PCT in the classification of acute pancreatitis in routine testing can help guide treatment and assess prognosis. [Keywords:] C-reactive protein and procalcitonin in severe acute pancreatitis secondary to infection outcome Abstract: Objective To explore the effects of changes of C-reactive protein (CRP) and Procalcitonin (PCT) levels on serum of Acute pancreatitis (AP) differentiation and the significance of its prognosis. Methods CRP levels in serum of 67 Acute pancreatitis patients were measured by Immunolgical turbidity and PCT levels were tested by Double-antibody Sandwich ELISA assay. There were 26 cases in Moderate Acute pancreatitis (MAP) group, 21 cases in Severe Acute pancreatitis (SAP without infection group and 20 cases in SAP patients with subsequent infection group. Results CRP levels in serum of SAP patients were higher than those in MAP patients. The peak appeared in the 2nd day and had statistic significance (P lt;0.01). PCT levels in serum of SAP with subsequent infection patients were higher than that in SAP patients without infec
