چکیده

Aims Recent studies have shown that C-reactive protein is not just an indicator of cardiovascular disease (CVD) incidence and mortality. Thus, early detection of a continous increase in CRP concentrations may be useful in predicting subsequent development of CVD or metabolic syndrome. The objective of this study was to analyze high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) in apparently healthy young Korean adolescents and determine confounding factors for high hs-CRP in this population.

Can we consider erythrocyte sedimentation rate and C-reactive protein as a severity index in pemphigus vulgaris?

Background: Erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) and C-reactive protein (CRP) are 2 inflammatory indicators that increase in many pathologic and physiologic conditions. Pemphigus vulgaris (PV) is an autoimmune skin disease in which autoantibodies against desmogleins cause acantholysis. In this study we have measured ESR and CRP levels in patients with PV to evaluate the relationship between an ...
