Metabolic syndrome and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein in Cubans.
OBJECTIVE We investigated metabolic syndrome and its association with high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) levels in Cuban Americans. METHODS The study included 161 nondiabetic Cuban Americans (55 men and 106 women) aged > or = 30 years living in South Florida. Metabolic syndrome was defined by using Adult Treatment Panel III criteria. Elevated hs-CRP level was defined as > 3 mg/L. ...
متن کاملSex Differences in High Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein in Subjects with Risk Factors of Metabolic Syndrome.
BACKGROUND Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is associated with a higher risk of all-cause mortality. High-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) is a prototypic marker of inflammation usually increased in MetS. Women with MetS-related diseases present higher hsCRP levels than men with MetS-related diseases, suggesting sex differences in inflammatory markers. However, it is unclear whether serum hsCRP ...
متن کاملAssociation of High Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein Concentrations and Metabolic Syndrome among Thai Adults.
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the association of high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) concentrations and metabolic syndrome among Thai adults. METHODS: This cross-sectional study is comprised of 467 Thai participants (209 men and 258 women) receiving annual health check-up. Spearman's rank correlation coefficients were used to assess associations of metabolic parameters (age, waist circumfe...
متن کاملAssociation of high-sensitivity C-reactive protein and uric acid with the metabolic syndrome components
Metabolic syndrome (MetS) has been found to be associated with inflammatory molecules. This study was conducted among 125 MetS patients at B P Koirala Institute of Health Sciences, Dharan, Nepal to find an association of high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) and serum uric acid with MetS components. Anthropometric measurements, blood pressure, medical history and blood samples were taken...
متن کاملHigh sensitivity C-reactive protein in asthma.
Asthma is characterised by chronic inflammation of the airways, but the relevance of high-sensitivity assays for C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), which are known to be a sensitive marker of low-grade systemic inflammation, has not been fully studied in asthma. The objective was to examine serum hs-CRP levels in patients with asthma and their relationship to clinical characteristics and degree of ai...
