Popis: Background and aim:Acute phase proteins are proteins built by factors such as inflammation, necrosis, bacterial infection, virus and malignancies and its value will changes in plasma and serum. UTI is one of the probable infection that changes this protein. The main purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between serum C- reactive protein and causative factors in patients with urinary tract infection was in 1393. Methods: In the present cross-sectional study, 2400 patients with suspected urinary tract infection were referred to medical clinics during five months urine culture were performed. ELISA and turbidity test were used to measure the amount of blood C- reactive protein. The urinary tract infection in patients with more than 105 colonies was considered as a positive culture, and then phenotypic test infection was performed by API kit. In addition; to confirming the results obtained DNA Sequencing experiments were conducted on genes Sr RNA 16. The data was analyzed using descriptive statistics and Chi-square tests. Results: Among the total of 2400 patients with suspected urinary tract infection, 100 patients had positive culture with 69% E.coli, 10% klebsiella, 6% enterococcus, 5% Enterobacter 2% and 3% were the other bacteria respectively. The results indicated that the level of CRP in the UTI patients increased to 56.8%. In addition, no association was found between blood levels of C- reactive protein and the type of the bacterial agents. Conclusion: the level of C- reactive protein blood was inceased in urinary tract infections increased, but this increase is not related to the type of bacteria. .
