Microbiota Separation and C-reactive Protein Elevation in Treatment-naïve Pediatric Granulomatous Crohn Disease

New perspectives in the treatment of pediatric Crohn´s disease.

C - Reactive Protein Levels in Patients with Periodontal Disease and Normal Subjects

Although periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory disease but some factors of acute inflammation phase are involved in this disease among which is the C-Reactive protein (CRP). To minimize its effects, anti-inflammatory drugs or non-pharmacological approaches such as oral hygiene is recommended. CRP can also be used for the prediction and early detection of periodontal disease. The aim of the pr...

C-reactive protein elevation and disease activity in patients with coronary artery disease.

AIMS We sought to assess (1) whether C-reactive protein (CRP) is an independent predictor of future cardiovascular events after adjustment for coronary artery disease (CAD) severity and (2) whether CRP levels correlate with number of angiographically complex coronary artery stenosis. METHODS AND RESULTS We studied 825 consecutive angina patients (mean age 63+/-10 years, 74% men), 700 with chr...

C-REACTIVE PROTEIN RESPONSE IN ANGINA PECTORIS

C-reactive protein (CRP) response was studied in 44 patients with acute angina pectoris admitted to the coronary care unit. 71 % of patients with acute myocardial infarction (MI)had positive CRP test while 73% of patients presumed to have unstable angina pectoris had negative CRP test. This test can be helpful in differentiating between acute MI and unstable angina pectoris.

Investigating relationship between C- reactive protein and obesity in adults

Introduction: Association between plasma high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (CRP) concentrations and cardiovascular disease has been Investigated. C-reactive protein (CRP) is an acute phase reactant which is a marker of inflammation in the body. CRP is made by the liver in response to inflammatory cytokines such as interleukin-6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNFα). Adipose ti...
