Prognostic role of midregional proadrenomedullin in predicting infection in pediatric cancer with febrile neutropenia

Seham Ragab, Sara El-Deeb, Ahmed Saeed, Asmaa Mahmoud

Background: Febrile neutropenia (FN) remains an important complication of cytotoxic chemotherapy for which an urgent and appropriate evaluation is imperative.
Purpose: To assess the diagnostic and prognostic roles of mid-regional pro-adrenomedullin (MR-ProADM) levels in predicting infection in patients with FN. Methods: This comparative cross-sectional study included 137 patients with chemotherapy-induced FN. Complete blood count, C-reactive protein (CRP), procalcitonin, and MR-ProADM were...

Therefore, a reliable diagnostic marker is needed to guide the use of antimicrobial agents. The objective of our study was to assess the value of proadrenomedullin (pro-ADM) in establishing the diagnosis and evaluating the prognosis of...
