09/01/1990 - "Computerized tomography findings generally correlated well with the erythrocyte sedimentation rate, C-reactive protein level, and presence of pyuria and flank pain. "
05/01/1992 - "We studied 32 children with a diagnosis of acute pyelonephritis established by high fever, flank pain/tenderness, increased blood levels of C-reactive protein and significant Escherichia coli growth in the urine culture. "
01/01/2021 - "Clinical risk factors for sepsis were age >65 years (odds ratio [OR] 1.79, P = 0.02), absence of flank pain (OR 1.59, P = 0.04), absence of costovertebral tenderness (OR 1.89, P = 0.03), diabetes mellitus (OR 2.25, P = 0.02), bacteremia (OR 2.8, P = 0.01), C-reactive protein level >100 mg/L (OR 1.42, P = 0.02), and lack of previous APN history (OR 1.76, P = 0.04). "
12/10/2018 - "Renal infarction should be considered in cases with acute flank pain accompanied by (low-grade) fever, high LDH level, increased C-reactive protein level, hypertension, and renal impairment, especially in those patients with an increased risk of thromboembolism."
08/01/2014 - "Between the bacteremic and non-bacteremic groups, there was significant difference in age (67 vs. 57 years, respectively), flank pain (16 vs. 7.8 %), suprapubic discomfort (0 vs. 4.6 %), body temperature (38.8 vs. 38.3 °C), respiratory rate (21 vs. 20/min), platelet count (170 vs. 186 × 10(3)/μL), C-reactive protein (10.2 vs. 8.3 mg/dL), and procalcitonin (1.5 vs. 0.3 ng/mL) (P < 0.05 for all).
