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

open access: yesNew England Journal of Medicine, 2012

The C-reactive protein

The Journal of Emergency Medicine, 1999
C-reactive protein (CRP) was identified in 1930 and was subsequently considered to be an "acute phase protein," an early indicator of infectious or inflammatory conditions. Since its discovery, CRP has been studied as a screening device for inflammation, a marker for disease activity, and as a diagnostic adjunct.

C-Reactive Protein and Operation

Acta Oto-Laryngologica, 1966
The occurrence of C-reactive protein (CRP) was studied after 167 otolaryngological operations. CRP appeared in blood serum of patients in 113 cases out of 167. In the case of tonsillectomies the incidence of positive tests for CRP was the highest, 47 out of 51.

C-Reactive Protein in Measles

Journal of Tropical Pediatrics, 1992
Seventy-two children with early measles (1st-3rd day of rash), presenting at two centres in Santiago, Chile, were classified as having mild ('ordinary measles', n = 50), or moderate to severe measles ('primarily severe measles', n = 22). The level of serum C-reactive protein (CRP) was determined by nephelometry from a finger prick sample.
