High-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) is a strong independent risk factor for cardiovascular events, and levels of hsCRP of or =3 mg/L have been suggested to define low-, moderate-, and high-risk groups. However, the positive predictive value of very low (10.0 mg/L) is uncertain...
Are High Levels of C-Reactive Protein Serious? The outlook on elevated c-reactive protein depends on the associated factors causing it. In terms of cardiovascular disease, lower levels of c-reactive protein may be associated with lower overall risk of disease and a better outlook for the patient...
What Is C-Reactive Protein? C-reactive protein is a protein produced by the liver that is normally found in the bloodstream at low levels. When there is any inflammatory condition in the body, the liver will release more.1 The role of CRP is to activate certain parts of the immune system...
Aim of this study was to investigate the associations of C-reactive protein levels, as marker of low-grade inflammation, with blood pressure development during pregnancy and the risks of gestational hypertensive complications. We also explored the role of maternal BMI in these associations.High-sensit...
C-reactive protein (CRP) is an acute-phase protein involved in inflammation. Furthermore, CRP is an important biomarker used in diagnostics to predict risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in addition to monitoring bacterial and viral infections. To measure plasma CRP, venipuncture is still necessit...

This is presumably also prevalent as an issue in practice in other populations globally. Elevation of C-reactive protein in the elderly may represent age-related disorders, the pathogenesis of which may involve low-grade inflammation, which complicates the issue of what levels are considered normal...
PurposeTo determine C-reactive protein (CRP) levels in acute retinal artery occlusion (RAO) and their association with atherosclerotic risk factors.MethodsCRP levels in 16 patients with RAO were compared with levels in 16 age-matched controls at risk of atherosclerosis and 16 young volunteers. Repea...
