Cytokines and chemokines promote the migration of neutrophils and macrophages to the site of<unk> . Pathogens, allergens, toxins, burns, and frostbite are some of the typical causes of acute<unk> . Toll-like receptors (TLRs) recognize microbial pathogens. Acute<unk>  can be a defensive mechanism to protect tissues against injury.<unk>  lasting 2–6 weeks is designated subacute<unk> . Chronic Chronic<unk>  is<unk>  that lasts for months or years. Macrophages, lymphocytes, and plasma cells predominate in chronic<unk> , in contrast to the neutrophils that predominate in acute<unk> . Diabetes, cardiovascular disease, allergies, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are examples of diseases mediated by chronic<unk> . Obesity, smoking, stress and insufficient diet are some of the factors that promote chronic<unk> . A 2014 study reported that 60% of Americans had at least one chronic inflammatory condition, whereas 42% had more than one. Cardinal signs + The classic signs and symptoms of acute<unk> : English Latin Redness Rubor Swelling Tumor Heat Calor Pain Dolor Loss of function Functio laesa Acute<unk>  is a short-term process, usually appearing within a few minutes or hours and begins to cease upon the removal of the injurious stimulus. It involves a coordinated and systemic mobilization response locally of various immune, endocrine and neurological mediators of acute<unk> . In a normal healthy response, it becomes activated, clears the pathogen and begins a repair process and then ceases. It is characterized by five cardinal signs: The traditional names for signs of<unk>  come from Latin: * Dolor (pain) * Calor (heat) * Rubor (redness) * Tumor (swelling) * Functio laesa (loss of function) The first four (classical signs) were described by Celsus (ca. 30 BC–38 AD), while loss of function was probably added later by Galen. However, the addition of this fifth sign has also been ascribed to Thomas Sydenham and Virchow. Redness and heat are due to increased blood flow at body core temperature to the inflamed site; swelling is caused by accumulation of fluid; pain is due to the release of chemicals such as bradykinin and histamine that stimulate nerve endings. Loss of function has multiple causes. Acute<unk>  of the lung (usually as in response to pneumonia) does not cause pain unless the<unk>  involves the parietal pleura, which does have pain-sensitive nerve endings.
