OBJECTIVES: To assess the association between systemic C‐reactive protein (CRP) and
incident coronary heart disease (CHD) in community‐dwelling elderly people. DESIGN: A …

Background—High C-reactive protein (CRP) is associated with increased coronary heart
disease risk. Few long-term data in the elderly are available. Methods and Results …

Markers of inflammation, such as C-reactive protein (CRP), are related to risk of
cardiovascular disease (CVD) events in those with angina, but little is known about …

Background—The role of C-reactive protein (CRP) in predicting vascular events and
response to statin therapy remains uncertain. Additional large prospective studies are …

The relative utility of conventional and novel risk factors in predicting cardiovascular disease
(CVD) in relation to age remains unclear. We examined the discriminative ability of C …

Aim of the study In contrast to the general population, individuals with primarily persistent
elevation of inflammatory activity display a significant association between inflammatory …

BACKGROUND: Raised levels of C-reactive protein (CRP), a marker of low grade systemic
inflammation, is common in ageing populations although the relevance of very highly …

The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effect of high-sensitivity C-reactive
protein (hs-CRP) on the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in a Chinese population. A …

Background—Although C-reactive protein (CRP) predicts vascular risk, few data are
available evaluating the relation between CRP and the Framingham Coronary Heart …

Serum C-reactive protein (CRP) reflects inflammation and predicts cardiovascular disease in
middle-aged individuals. We investigated CRP, risk factors, and 10-year mortality in 3 …
