Adolescent body mass index and erythrocyte sedimentation rate in relation to colorectal cancer risk
Gut, 2015 Objective Adult obesity and inflammation have been associated with risk of colorectal cancer (CRC); however, less is known about how adolescent body mass index (BMI) and inflammation, as measured by erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), relate to CRC ...

Erythrocyte sedimentation rate and C-reactive protein.
Australian Prescriber, 2015 C-reactive protein is a better indicator of inflammation than the erythrocyte sedimentation rate. It is more sensitive and responds more quickly to changes in the clinical situation.
