Scarlet fever, especially in the mild and attenuated forms, proposes considerable diagnostic problems. The Authors, on the basis of their cases, remark the importance of C-reactive protein (CRP) positivity. After comparing the high initial positivity of this aspecific index of illness to the bacteriological pharyngeal findings and to the movement of antibodies against the Streptococcus, they think that CRP in scarlet fever may have a punctual significance, also for the ease and the quickness of this test.
猩红热，尤其是轻型和症状减轻型，存在相当多的诊断问题。作者基于他们的病例，指出C反应蛋白（CRP）呈阳性的重要性。在将这种非特异性疾病指标的高初始阳性率与咽部细菌学检查结果以及抗链球菌抗体的变化进行比较后，他们认为CRP在猩红热中可能具有即时意义，而且该检测操作简便、结果快速。
