Abstract C-reactive protein (CRP), the prototypic acute-phase protein, increases rapidly in response to infection and inflammation. Although CRP was thought to be a passive, nonspecific marker of ...

The C-reactive protein to albumin ratio (CAR) was calculated as the ratio of C-reactive protein (CRP) to albumin (ALB) levels. Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) status was identified through self-reported ...

NHANES data from 1999 to 2006 show a positive link between serum CRP levels and low muscle mass risk in US adults. An inverse J-shaped pattern emerges, indicating a non-linear association between CRP ...

C-Reactive Protein (CRP) The C-reactive protein (CRP) test is used to measure the level of a protein that is produced by the liver and released into the bloodstream in response to inflammation.

Doctors can use your C-reactive protein (CRP) levels to help diagnose rheumatoid arthritis and see how well your treatment plan is working. Levels typically rise if you have inflammation or ...

Patients in the group with elevated C-reactive protein also had higher baseline mean BMI (34.1 [7.9] vs 28.6 [6.0] kg/mg 2), more had Hurley stage III disease (51.5% vs 25.8%), median IHS4 score ...

Traditional blood tests measure LDL and HDL cholesterol, but a couple extra tests could help you know your risk for the next 30 years, according to a new study.
