[Acute phase proteins: alpha-1-acid glycoprotein (AGP) and alpha-1 antichymotrypsin (ACT) in serum of patients with cerebral ischemic stroke].

The purpose of this study was to investigate the dynamics of selected acute phase proteins in serum of patients with cerebral ischaemic stroke. The investigation was done in 30 patients with cerebral ischaemic stroke. Alpha1-acid glycoprotein and alpha-1-antichymotrypsin levels in serum of patients with cerebral ischaemic stroke on III and VII day of illness were statistically significantly higher than in the control group.
