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...
متن کاملHigh sensitivity C-reactive protein in asthma.
Asthma is characterised by chronic inflammation of the airways, but the relevance of high-sensitivity assays for C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), which are known to be a sensitive marker of low-grade systemic inflammation, has not been fully studied in asthma. The objective was to examine serum hs-CRP levels in patients with asthma and their relationship to clinical characteristics and degree of ai...

متن کاملPoint: high-sensitivity C-reactive protein and cardiac C-reactive protein assays: is there a need to differentiate?
Recent evidence has shown that inflammation plays a pivotal role in the inception and progression of atherosclerosis, and population studies have demonstrated a strong and independent association between baseline concentrations of inflammatory biomarkers and future coronary events. Because the majority of individuals who develop coronary events are not in a high-risk group according to the Fram...
متن کاملHigh-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...
