OBJECTIVES: To describe changes in interleukin‐6 (IL‐6) and C‐reactive protein (CRP)
and to determine how changes are related to mortality in elderly people. DESIGN …

OBJECTIVES: To investigate whether interleukin‐6 (IL‐6), C‐reactive protein (CRP) and
tumor necrosis factor‐alpha (TNF‐α) protein levels predict all‐cause mortality in older …

Objectives To investigate long‐term variability in serum high‐sensitivity C‐reactive protein
(CRP) and interleukin‐6 (IL‐6) and to determine associated risk factors for high‐risk …

IL-6 expression is regulated by the interplay of several transcriptional and hormonal factors,
including sex steroids and glucocorticoids. In late life IL-6 expression increases as a result …

Background. Associations of inflammation with age-related pathologies are documented;
however, it is not understood how changes in inflammation over time impact healthy aging …

Background. Inflammation plays a major role in both aging and chronic disease.
Longitudinal studies in very old people can improve our understanding of these processes …

Background Certain inflammatory biomarkers increase with age, provide information about
general burden of illness and could cause or reflect any collateral damage to healthy cells …

OBJECTIVES: To investigate the characteristics of older adults who develop high interleukin‐
6 (IL‐6) levels at 3‐year follow‐up. DESIGN: Population‐based study of adults living in …

PURPOSE: To investigate whether interleukin-6 and C-reactive protein levels predict all-
cause and cause-specific mortality in a population-based sample of nondisabled older …

OBJECTIVES: Several peripheral blood markers of inflammation have demonstrated
prognostic ability, but the value of combining multiple markers as a measure of inflammatory …
