We studied the erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ERS) and related factors that influence ESR in 326 patients with Pulmonary tuberculosis. The ESR tended to be higher for aged subjects and showed a difference between patients under 59 years old and patients over 60 years old. Besides, patients under 30 years old tended to present lower ESR. It is suggested that they may be under the influence of inapparent infection. For The Japanese Society for Tuberculosis Classification, a significant difference was noted in the extent, but there was no difference about the presence of cavity. A significant correlation was detected between ESE and Gaffky scale, ESR and CRP, and ESR and period until sputum culture became negative. But CRP negative cases were observed in about 28%. CRP alone was not sufficient for the evaluation of the morbid condition of Mycobacterium infection. Receiver-Operator Characteristic curve analysis confirmed that ESR is useful among patients with pulmonary tuberculosis. Therefore evaluation of ESR together with CRP was needed.
