changes of high sensitivity c-reactive protein during clopidogrel therapy in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention
conclusions we found that the use of clopidogrel in patients undergoing pci had favorable effects on the suppression of hs-crp. this effect appears to be heightened and more apparent in some group of patients with co-morbidities such as diabetes and hypertension. results six hundred-fifty patients including 386 (59.4%) male and 264 (40.6%) female subjects were enrolled in the study. the mean hs...
متن کاملComparison of values of wide-range C-reactive protein to high-sensitivity C-reactive protein in patients undergoing coronary angiography.
This study compared the recently introduced cheaper and more accessible wide-range C-reactive protein (wr-CRP) with the commonly used high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) in patients undergoing coronary angiography. One hundred fifty-two consecutive patients who were admitted to a tertiary medical center and underwent angiography were included in the study. Arterial blood was obtained f...
متن کاملChanges of High Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein During Clopidogrel Therapy in Patients Undergoing Percutaneous Coronary Intervention
BACKGROUND The crucial role of inflammation in the development and progression of atherosclerosis has been previously described. However, there is insufficient data available to demonstrate the changes in high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) during clopidogrel therapy. OBJECTIVES In the present study, we aimed to assess the changes in the inflammatory marker of coronary heart disease,...
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...
متن کاملHigh-Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein and Cancer
BACKGROUND High-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) is a commonly used inflammatory marker. The association between hs-CRP and cancer is less consistent than that between hs-CRP and cardiovascular diseases. This study explored the association between hs-CRP and cancer, using a large database of Korean health examination records. METHODS A total of 80,781 Koreans who visited the health pro...
