Comparison of C-reactive protein and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein levels in patients on hemodialysis

open access: yesSaudi Journal of Kidney Diseases and Transplantation, 2012
Chronic inflammation is highly prevalent in patients on hemodialysis (HD), as evidenced by increased levels of C-reactive protein (CRP). We compared CRP to high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) to determine whether it has any clinical implications

C‐reactive protein and ageing [PDF]

open access: yesClinical and Experimental Pharmacology and Physiology, 2017
SummaryIncreasing evidence shows that C‐reactive protein (CRP) is not only an inflammatory biomarker but also an important risk factor associated with ageing‐related diseases including cardiovascular disease, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and kidney disease.

Antibodies to C reactive protein [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of the Rheumatic Diseases, 2006
C reactive protein (CRP) is a known indicator of inflammation. Serum CRP is often raised in patients with inflammatory conditions.To determine whether individuals make antibodies to CRP and whether this might affect serum CRP concentrations.An enzyme linked immunosorbent assay was developed for the detection of antibodies to CRP.

C-reactive protein and atherothrombosis

open access: yesBMC News and views, 2001
Circulating concentrations of C-reactive protein (CRP), the classical acute phase protein and sensitive systemic marker of inflammation, significantly predict atherothrombotic events and outcome after acute myocardial infarction, demonstrating the key role of inflammation in atherosclerosis and its complications.

Diagnostic strategies for C-reactive protein

open access: yesBMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2002
Background Serum C-reactive protein (CRP) has been identified in prospective epidemiological research as an independent risk marker for cardiovascular disease. In this paper, short-term biological variation of CRP is documented and a strategy to test the

C-reactive protein haplotypes and dispositional optimism in obese and nonobese elderly subjects [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Background Chronic low-grade inflammation, characterized by elevated plasma levels of C-reactive protein (CRP), has been inversely associated with dispositional optimism.

C-Reactive Protein, Fibrinogen, and Cardiovascular Disease Prediction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
BACKGROUND: There is debate about the value of assessing levels of C-reactive protein (CRP) and other biomarkers of inflammation for the prediction of first cardiovascular events.

APOE polymorphism and its effect on plasma C-reactive protein levels in a large general population sample [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The literature on association between apolipoprotein E (APOE) gene variations and plasma levels of C-reactive protein (CRP) remains inconsistent, mainly due to low statistical power of previous studies.

C-Reactive protein gene variants are associated with postoperative C-reactive protein levels after coronary artery bypass surgery

open access: yesBMC 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

C-Reactive protein in malaria [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Pathology, 1969
C-Reactive protein has not been studied in malaria so far but with the reappearance of malaria in the southern part of Iran there is now an opportunity to study the behaviour of C-reactive protein in malaria. One hundred and sixty-two patients suffering from malaria have been so tested.
