C-Reactive protein gene variants are associated with postoperative C-reactive protein levels after coronary artery bypass surgery [PDF]
BMC Medical Genetics, 2009 Background Elevated baseline C-reactive protein (CRP) levels are associated with increased risk for developing cardiovascular disease. Several CRP gene variants have been associated with altered baseline CRP levels in ambulatory populations. However, the

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2004 C-reactive protein (CRP) is a phylogenetically highly conserved plasma protein, with homologs in vertebrates and many invertebrates, that participates in the systemic response to inflammation. Its plasma concentration increases during inflammatory states, a characteristic that has long been employed for clinical purposes.

Systemic inflammation predicts all-cause mortality: a Glasgow Inflammation Outcome Study [PDF]
, 2015 Introduction: Markers of the systemic inflammatory response, including C-reactive protein and albumin (combined to form the modified Glasgow Prognostic Score), as well as neutrophil, lymphocyte and platelet counts have been shown to be prognostic of ...

Circulation, 2001 In the present issue, Chew and colleagues 1 show that elevated baseline C-reactive protein (CRP) levels before percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) are associated with a progressive increase in the risk of death or myocardial infarction at 30 days. The independent association of risk attributable to the marker CRP remained, even after adjusting for

Therapeutic Lowering of C-Reactive Protein
Frontiers in Immunology, 2021 In the blood of healthy individuals C-reactive protein (CRP) is typically quite scarce, whereas its blood concentration can rise robustly and rapidly in response to tissue damage and inflammation associated with trauma and infectious and non-infectious ...

Association between C-reactive protein with all-cause mortality in ELSA-Brasil cohort [PDF]
, 2020 Background: High-sensitive C-reactive protein (hsCRP) has been proposed as a marker of incident cardiovascular disease and vascular mortality, and it may also be a marker of non-vascular mortality.

Journal of Akhtar Saeed Medical & Dental College, 2023 C-reactive protein (CRP) is synthesized in the liver after macrophages and T-lymphocytes secrete interleukins.It is an acute phase protein,and the normal concentration ranges from0.8 mg/L to 3 mg/L. It is used as a markerof inflammation.
