The Correlation between High Sensitive C-reactive Protein Levels and Gensini Score in Diabetes Patients

BACKGROUND: Coronary artery disease is a caused by atherosclerotic plaques in the coronary arteries. The severity of can be assessed objectively angiography. Many prospective studies have shown that inflammatory biomarkers with high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) are independent predictors cardiovascular events. AIM: aim this study was to determine correlation hsCRP and Gensini score subjects diabetic patients. METHODS: This used an analytical observational design cross-sectional see between subjects. total sample 40 diagnosis diabetes. Examination angiography levels performed on all RESULTS: A patients were included analysis. mean age 57.98 ± 8.71 years old. 63.90 40.79 median level 13.05 (0.3–245.6). There significant (r = 0.346, p 0.029). CONCLUSION: positive relationship score, where increase value also followed score; therefore, assess degree lesions.
