Phlogosis, or inflammation, is an innate defense mechanism that our organism activates in response to various stimuli. Phlogosis is characterized by chemical mediators that play a fundamental role in various phases, from initiation to development and extinction or maintenance. Phlogosis markers are generally nonspecific because their levels increase during inflammation due to different causes. Therefore, their evaluation provides a general picture of the patient’s clinical condition.

Abstract
Phlogosis, or inflammation, is an innate defense mechanism that our organism activates in response to various stimuli. Phlogosis is characterized by chemical mediators that play a fundamental role in various phases, from initiation to development and extinction or maintenance. Phlogosis markers are generally nonspecific because their levels increase during inflammation due to different causes. Therefore, their evaluation provides a general picture of the patient’s clinical condition.
