Pediatric Loss of Control Eating and High-Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein Concentrations

High-Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein and Cancer

BACKGROUND High-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) is a commonly used inflammatory marker. The association between hs-CRP and cancer is less consistent than that between hs-CRP and cardiovascular diseases. This study explored the association between hs-CRP and cancer, using a large database of Korean health examination records. METHODS A total of 80,781 Koreans who visited the health pro...

Prognostic Value of High-Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein, Procalcitonin and Pancreatic Stone Protein in Pediatric Sepsis

BACKGROUND To investigate the prognostic value of procalcitonin (PCT), high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), and pancreatic stone protein (PSP) in children with sepsis. MATERIAL AND METHODS A total of 214 patients with sepsis during hospitalization were enrolled. Serum levels of PCT, hs-CRP, and PSP were measured on day 1 of hospitalization and the survival rates of children were record...

The Effect of Resistance Training on Levels of Interlukine-6 and High-Sensitivity C - reactive protein in Older-Aged Women

Introduction: Aging is associated with elevated levels of some proinflammatory factors and exercise is a non-invasive intervention to improve immune function among older adults .The aim of the study was to compare resistance training effects on interlukine-6 (IL-6) and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) levels in older-aged women. Methods: The study was quasi-experimental and for...

High-sensitivity C-reactive protein methods examined.

Steatosis DeLIVERs high-sensitivity C-reactive protein.

Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease is characterized by excess accumulation of lipids within parenchymal cells of the liver (ie, hepatocellular steatosis) in the absence of excessive ethanol consumption. Fatty liver disease is widely considered to be the hepatic manifestation of metabolic syndrome and is estimated to occur in more than 25% of the Western population.1 Nonalcoholic fatty liver disea...
