Several studies suggest that inflammation plays a role in the pathogenesis of some glucose
disorders in adults. We tested this hypothesis in a longitudinal cohort study of older …

OBJECTIVE—The objective of this study was to assess the association of inflammation with
hyperglycemia (impaired fasting glucose [IFG]/impaired glucose tolerance [IGT]) and …

Background Previous studies have suggested that low-grade systemic inflammation is
involved in the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes mellitus. Objective To investigate the …

Aims C‐reactive protein (CRP), a marker of subclinical inflammation, predicts the occurrence
of coronary heart disease in healthy subjects. Hyperglycaemia is known to stimulate the …

OBJECTIVE—Age, diabetes, and elevated inflammatory markers independently increase
the risk of functional decline. We examined the effect of C-reactive protein (CRP) and …

OBJECTIVE—Although sex differences have been reported for associations between
obesity and inflammation, the question of whether there is an effect modification by sex in …

OBJECTIVE—Type 2 diabetes is associated with chronic low-grade inflammation, but the
underlying mechanism (s) is not well understood. Because in vitro studies have shown that …

To examine the association of low-grade systemic inflammation with diabetes, as well as its
heterogeneity across subgroups, we designed a case-cohort study representing the∼ 9 …

Aims/hypothesis Low-grade inflammation has been implicated in the development of Type 2
diabetes and cardiovascular disease, but its role in the pathogenesis of the metabolic …

Accumulating evidence implicates inflammation as a potential pathway in the pathogenesis
of type 2 diabetes. The objective of the present study was to assess the ability of C-reactive …
