TL;DR
The immunoglobulin pattern after three weeks was characterized by a small increase most prominent for IgM, and only slight changes were found for hemopexin, plasminogen, prothrombin, cold insoluble globulin, β1F-globulin and a2-macroglobulin.
Abstract
Plasma concentrations of 21 proteins have been determined during three weeks following myocardial infarction. Three major patterns of response were distinguished. (1) C-reactive protein, haptoglobin, antichymotrypsin, fibrinogen, orosomucoid and ai-antitrypsin showed a rapid increase with a maximum on day 5, followed by a partial normalisation on day 21. (2) Prealbumin, albumin, α-lipoprotein, transferrin and immunoglobulin G showed a rapid decrease to 80 % or less on day 5 and restoration to normal values on day 21. (3) Ceruloplasmin and β1c-globulin showed a moderate increase with maximum during the second week. Only slight changes were found for hemopexin, plasminogen, prothrombin, cold insoluble globulin, β1F-globulin and a2-macroglobulin. The immunoglobulin pattern after three weeks was characterized by a small increase most prominent for IgM.

By standardizing the technical conditions of the experiment it is possible to use this principle for the immunochemical determination of antigens, and the lower limit of the method was found to correspond to 0·0025 μg of antigen, and to an antigen concentrations of 1·25 μg per ml.

Patients with active Crohn's disease who responded favourably to medical treatment had significantly higher immunoglobulin levels than patients not responding and a similar observation, though not statistically significant, was made in patients with ulcerative colitis.

The results suggest that the fibrinolytic system exhibits a common reaction pattern to stress, irrespective of its nature and of tissue damage, and call for caution in assuming a specific causal association in acute diseases such as pancreatitis and haematemesis where similar fibrinoslytic changes may be encountered.

Conformity between the values determined by the various methods was found when determining ‘normal immunoglobulins’, while M-components proved to be higher by the immunological methods as well as by moving boundary electrophoresis and by immunodiffusion.

A significant correlation was found between the immunochemically determined concentration of prothrombin and the prohrombin-proconvertin activity in plasma samples from 133 patients, some of whom were receiving treatment with Dicumarol.

Serial determinations of the ESR, C' and CRP were performed in sixty-one episodes of myocardial infarction and there appears to be no inherent superiority of the newer tests to the well established procedure of the erythrocyte sedimentation rate.
