Zusammenfassung

Abstract Background Familial Mediterranean Fever (FMF), which is characterised by recurrent episodes of fever with serositis, is associated with ongoing inflammation without clinical findings during attack-free periods, leading to amyloidosis, the most important complication of FMF. The objective of this study was to investigate the C-reactive protein/albumin ratio (CAR) as a marker to identify subclinical inflammation in symptom-free FMF children and compare the CAR with other systemic inflammatory markers such as mean platelet volume (MPV), red cell distribution width (RDW), neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR) a…
