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 ...

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 ...

Blood tests are one way to understand what’s happening in our bodies, and one such indicator is the C-reactive protein (CRP). Produced by the liver, CRP levels rise when there is inflammation inside ...

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 ...

C-reactive protein (CRP) is produced by the liver in response to inflammation, signaling potential health issues. High-sensitivity CRP (hs-CRP) detects even minor inflammation, which can elevate heart ...

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 ...

People with high levels of a particular protein are at increased risk of cardiovascular disease, says a team of international researchers who cut short trials after discovering the risk drops by ...

Elevated C-reactive protein (CRP) indicates inflammation, potentially linked to heart disease, diabetes, or poor gut health. Lifestyle adjustments like anti-inflammatory diets, regular exercise, and ...
