C-Reactive Protein

12/01/2009 - "The inclusion of the C-reactive protein (CRP) inflammation marker into the model highly improved the power of death prediction. "
05/01/1997 - "The level of C-reactive protein (CRP), currently the best quantitative parameter of inflammation, was used as the gold standard. "
07/01/2011 - "Owing to the increased prevalence of inflammation in patients with CKD and the potent effect of statins in individuals with elevated levels of C-reactive protein, these drugs should be especially effective in patients with CKD. "
01/01/2015 - "Whey supplementation is beneficial for human health, possibly by reducing the circulating C-reactive protein (CRP) level, a sensitive marker of inflammation. "
07/01/2014 - "Moreover, LCM was significantly greater in patients with higher systemic inflammation according to elevated C-reactive protein (CRP). "

01/01/2013 - "The C-reactive protein levels on the first and second postoperative days were significantly greater in the infection group (p=0.02 and p=0.05, respectively). "
07/01/2011 - "Body temperature, neutrophil count and plasma C-reactive protein concentration in patients with infection were significantly greater than the levels in control subjects(P<0.05). "
05/01/2009 - "Repeated measurements over the clinical course of AAV revealed an increase during remission to 1,180 +/- 130 U (n = 11), while there was a significant rapid decrease to 369 +/- 441 U (P < 0.01) concomitantly with elevation in plasma C-reactive protein and BG levels in patients with AAV that had AsP or PCP infection. "
01/01/2006 - "PCT is superior to C-reactive protein in discriminating infections in this setting. "
12/01/2001 - "C-reactive protein as an indicator of infection, may help to detect surgical complications early and provide a better outcome for patients. "

06/01/2001 - "Both groups experienced a significant improvement in erythrocyte sedimentation rate, C reactive protein, Ritchie Articular Index, and pain score by 24 weeks (p<0.001, Friedman test). "
06/01/2000 - "All 10 corticosteroid treated patients responded to the first injection with a significant reduction in duration of morning stiffness, VAS pain scale, patient and physician global assessment, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, and C-reactive protein. "
10/12/1991 - "After four weeks at the health farm the diet group showed a significant improvement in number of tender joints, Ritchie's articular index, number of swollen joints, pain score, duration of morning stiffness, grip strength, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, C-reactive protein, white blood cell count, and a health assessment questionnaire score. "
09/01/2015 - "After 24 weeks of treatment, clinical features at baseline, including counts for tender joints and swelling joints, visual analog scale for pain, patient's and physician's global assessment, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, C-reactive protein, disease activity score 28, health assessment questionnaire, simplified disease activity index, and ACR50 in the MTX + T-614 group, showed statistically significant differences comparing with the MTX group (P < 0.05). "
06/19/2014 - "The coprimary end points at month 6 were the mean change from baseline in the van der Heijde modified total Sharp score (which ranges from 0 to 448, with higher scores indicating greater structural joint damage) and the proportion of patients with an American College of Rheumatology (ACR) 70 response (≥70% reduction in the number of both tender and swollen joints and ≥70% improvement in three of five other criteria: the patient's assessment of pain, level of disability, C-reactive protein level or erythrocyte sedimentation rate, global assessment of disease by the patient, and global assessment of disease by the physician). "

10/01/2013 - "Study aims were to determine the association of diet composition with energy intake, homeostatic model assessment-insulin resistance (HOMA-IR), and C-reactive protein (CRP). "
01/01/2011 - "The endpoints of the study were the insulin resistance (IR), the prognostic inflammatory and nutritional index (PINI) and the C-reactive protein (CRP)/albumin ratio. "
01/01/2010 - "The finding of this study is the association of the Thr54/Ala54 and Thr54/Thr54 FABP2 phenotypes with higher levels of C-reactive protein without relation to insulin resistance. "
09/01/2008 - "The aim of the current study was to examine the associations of visceral adiposity and exercise participation with C-reactive protein (CRP), insulin resistance, and endothelial dysfunction in Korean adults selected from the general population. "
09/01/2007 - "Serum C3 is a stronger inflammatory marker of insulin resistance than C-reactive protein, leukocyte count, and erythrocyte sedimentation rate: comparison study in an elderly population."

12/01/2003 - "CDP571 is not effective in unselected patients with active Crohn's disease, but it may be effective in patients with elevated C-reactive protein. "
04/01/2015 - "As treatment goals in Crohn's disease (CD) evolve, targets now include clinical remission (CR), mucosal healing (MH) and biological remission [C-reactive protein normalisation (CRPnorm )]. "
01/01/2012 - "Younger age (<30 years) and increased C-reactive protein level at remission were independent predictors of relapse in Crohn's disease patients receiving thiopurines to maintain remission. "
04/01/2009 - "CD remission was defined as a Crohn s Disease Activity Index (CDAI) < 150 points together with C-reactive protein < 5 mg/L. "
07/01/1995 - "It seems that the currently existing clinical signs used for Crohn's disease activity would be quantitatively improved by adding some easily made laboratory tests such as C-reactive protein."
