abstract   background : cancer has not been elucidated in colerectal site. c-reactive protein (crp) is a product synthesized in hepatocytes and has been reported to be up-regulated by such proinflammatory cytokines as interleukin-1 (il-1), interleukin-6 (il-6), and tumor necrosis factor (tnf). the significance of a preoperative serum elevation was evaluated using crp as a predictive indicator f...

background multiple population-based human studies have established a strong association between increasing levels of serum c-reactive protein, uric acid and subsequent development of hypertension. objectives we aimed to investigate the association between mental well-being with presence of hypertension, hyperuricemia and hs-crp levels. ‬‬ patients and methods this was a cross sectional study o...

background: high sensitive c-reactive protein (hs-crp) is a systemic inflammatory marker that is produced in a large amount by hepatocytes in response to interleukin-1 (il-1), il-6 and tumor necrosis factor after ischemic stroke. methods: measurement of hs-crp in the first 24 hours of onset in 162 patients suffering from ischemic stroke was done. relation of crp with the risk of early mortality...

OBJECTIVE C-reactive protein is a marker of inflammation and vascular disease. It also seems to be associated with an increased risk of dementia. To better understand potential underlying mechanisms, we assessed microstructural brain integrity and cognitive performance relative to serum levels of high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP). METHODS We cross-sectionally examined 447 community...

Abstract : Background of the study Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) remains the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in the present world. Clinical and laboratory studies have shown that inflammation plays a major role in the initiation, progression, and destabilization of atheromas. C-reactive protein (CRP), an acute phase reactant that reflects low-grade systemic inflammation, has been studi...

C-reactive protein is the prototype marker of inflammation and has been shown to predict mortality in hemodialysis patients. However, it remains uncertain as to whether a single C-reactive protein level has similar prognostic significance in peritoneal dialysis patients. A single high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) level was measured in 246 continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis pat...

(1) Introduction: High sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) and CRP are inflammatory biomarkers associated with several diseases. In both pediatric adult individuals Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) higher hs-CRP were observed, compared to controls. With the present systematic review, meta-analysis meta-regression we expand upon previous meta-analyses in four ways: We included 109 studies (96 a...

This Finnish population-based study, mean age 46 years, evaluates the association of high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1Ra), and adiponectin with the NCEP and IDF definitions of metabolic syndrome (MetS). Adiponectin levels were higher, hs-CRP and IL-1Ra levels lower in subjects without MetS compared to subjects with MetS. If MetS was present ac...

background and objective: brucellosis is a main transmittable zoonotic disease, which is endemic, and a common health burden in iran. adenosine deaminase (ada) is an essential enzyme which is involved in purine metabolism and its role in immune system is very important. the aim of this study was to determine serum changes of ada and c-reactive protein (crp) levels in patients with brucellosis. ...
