Prediction of Bacterial Etiology in Pediatric Patients with Acute Epididymitis: A Comparison of C-Reactive Protein and Urinalysis in Terms of Diagnostic Accuracy

Prediction of Bacterial Etiology in Pediatric Patients with Acute Epididymitis: A Comparison of C-Reactive Protein and Urinalysis in Terms of Diagnostic Accuracy

<b>Background/Objectives</b>: We aimed to determine the proportion of bacterial etiology in pediatric acute epididymitis (AE) and to compare the predictive accuracy of C-reactive protein (CRP) and urinalysis. <b>Methods</b>: Pediatric patients diagnosed with AE in National Ta...
