Answer

Common laboratory markers of sepsis include: elevated C-reactive protein (CRP), elevated procalcitonin (a more specific marker for bacterial sepsis than CRP), elevated serum lactate (reflecting tissue hypoperfusion), and changes in white blood cell count (leukocytosis or leukopenia, with a left shift/increased band forms). Blood culture positivity, when present, confirms bacteraemia but a negative culture does not exclude sepsis (which is a clinical syndrome, not solely defined by culture positivity). Without the original four numbered statements from the source question, the specific combination intended by the examiner cannot be confirmed.
