High Sensitive C - reactive protein – A Risk Marker For Coronary Artery Disease
Abstract : Background of the study Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) remains the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in the present world. Clinical and laboratory studies have shown that inflammation plays a major role in the initiation, progression, and destabilization of atheromas. C-reactive protein (CRP), an acute phase reactant that reflects low-grade systemic inflammation, has been studi...

death in the western world. In the United States, more than 70 million Americans have one or more types of CVD, and a recent report states that CVD is the cause of approximately as many deaths each year as the next five leading causes of death combined (cancer, chronic lower respiratory diseases, accidents, diabetes mellitus and influenza and pneumonia) [1].

متن کامل[High-sensitivity C-reactive protein as a biomarker of risk in coronary artery disease].
Vascular inflammation plays a crucial role in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis and mediates various stages of atherosclerotic plaque development, from lipid streak formation to the plaque rupture and destabilization that precedes the clinical syndromes of cardiovascular disease. Inflammatory biomarkers constitute valuable tools to study this process, enabling the effects of different therape...

متن کاملC-reactive protein and coronary heart disease - risk marker or risk factor?
Cardiovascular diseases are gaining a dubious distinction of becoming the leading cause of death. Thus, the search for new risk markers and risk factors of cardiovascular disease continue, in an attempt to predict the risk of cardiovascular events with greater precision. Of all the risk markers available, high sensitivity C-reactive Protein (hsCRP) is considered to be the most robust tool with ...
