Association of very highly elevated C-reactive protein concentration with cardiovascular events and all-cause mortality.
BACKGROUND The clinical relevance of very highly increased high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) concentrations (>10 mg/L) is incompletely understood. We examined the association between very highly increased hsCRP and risk of incident cardiovascular disease (CVD) events and all-cause mortality. METHODS We recruited 5248 participants free from overt CVD and acute infection [mean age 53....

متن کاملC-reactive protein and risk of cardiovascular and all-cause mortality in 268 803 East Asians.
AIMS C-reactive protein concentrations are decreased in Asians compared with people of white European ethnicity. It is uncertain whether C-reactive protein is a robust biomarker of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in Asians. This study aimed to determine the association between C-reactive protein and CVD and all-cause mortality in a large population of Koreans. METHODS AND RESULTS Mortality outco...
متن کاملAssociation of Hemoglobin Concentration and Its Change With Cardiovascular and All‐Cause Mortality
BACKGROUND Anemia is thought to increase mortality risks, but the effects of high hemoglobin concentration on survival are unclear. The effect of change in hemoglobin concentrations on survival in the general population is also unknown. This study aimed to examine the effect of hemoglobin concentrations and their changes on cardiovascular and all-cause mortality risks. METHODS AND RESULTS We ...
متن کاملAssociation of carotid artery intima-media thickness, plaques, and C-reactive protein with future cardiovascular disease and all-cause mortality: the Cardiovascular Health Study.
BACKGROUND Carotid atherosclerosis, measured as carotid intima-media thickness or as characteristics of plaques, has been linked to cardiovascular disease (CVD) and to C-reactive protein (CRP) levels. We investigated the relationship between carotid atherosclerosis and CRP and their joint roles in CVD prediction. METHODS AND RESULTS Of 5888 participants in the Cardiovascular Health Study, an ...
