Resume

The aim of this study is to statistically assess and analyze how procalcitonin (PCT) levels change depending on the stages of the disease in children with rheumatic heart disease. The clinical observation results presented in this study highlight the characteristics of changes in procalcitonin levels in children with rheumatic heart disease (RHD) and their correlation with the stages of the disease

Keywords: rheumatic heart disease, carditis, procalcitonin, Kolmogorov–Smirnov, Student's t-test, ELISA, statistical analysis, cardiology, pediatrics
