Proteomic discovery and verification of serum amyloid A as a predictor marker of patients at risk of post-stroke infection: a pilot study

Abstract Background Post-stroke infections occur in 20–36% of stroke patients and are associated with high morbidity and mortality rates. Early identification of patients at risk of developing an infection could improve care via an earlier treatment leading to a better outcome. We used proteomic too...
