The liver releases small amounts of C-reactive protein (CRP) to fight infections and inflammation. However, high C-reactive protein levels indicate significant inflammation caused by a health ...

Probiotic supplementation significantly lowers CRP levels in patients with depression, especially in those with metabolic ...

The CRP test measures the amount of this protein in the blood. Let us explain which diseases the CRP test can detect and ...

Compared with patients in the lowest CRP quartile, those in the highest quartile have increased odds of kidney stones. Elevated levels of C-reactive protein (CRP), a nonspecific inflammatory marker, ...

A study finds that a blood test that evaluates levels of three compounds — lipoprotein(a), C-reactive protein (a marker of inflammation), and “bad” LDL cholesterol — can accurately reveal heart ...

Serum C-reactive protein is being investigated as a biomarker to predict adalimumab response in hidradenitis suppurativa patients. Elevated baseline C-reactive protein levels correlate with a reduced ...

In a recent study, immune-inflammatory index, neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio, and platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio were associated with infection of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) in children. High ...

A new scientific statement on inflammation from the American College of Cardiology confirms the value of high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) in clinical decision-making by stressing the ...

A combined analysis of blood tests to measure three biomarkers linked to higher risk of cardiovascular disease-lipoprotein a (Lp(a)), remnant cholesterol and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP ...
