Objective: To determine the frequency of high serum high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) level in pre-eclampsia women. Study Design: Cross-sectional study. Setting: Department Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Bahawalpur Medical Dental College, Bahawalpur. Period: October 2022 to February 2023. Material & Methods: A total 206 women aged between 20-35 years with singleton pregnancy, gestat...

High-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) levels in European populations are lower in patients with maturity-onset diabetes of the young type 3 (MODY3) than in those with type 2 diabetes. hs-CRP levels have been suggested to be useful for discriminating MODY3 from type 2 diabetes. As hs-CRP levels are influenced by various factors including race and body mass index, it is worthwhile to exami...

C ardiovascular disease is the major cause of mortality and morbidity in individuals with diabetes (1,2). Increased plasma concentrations of acutephase proteins have been reported in adult patients with either type 2 (3,4) or type 1 (5,6) diabetes. However, there have been few studies to determine plasma high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) levels in young diabetic patients (7,8). This ...

OBJECTIVES We sought to investigate the relationship among C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), clinical characteristics, exercise stress test responses, and ST-segment changes during daily life in patients with typical chest pain and normal coronary angiograms (CPNCA). BACKGROUND Patients with CPNCA have coronary microvascular endothelial dysfunction and myocardial ischemia. Elevated hs-CRP levels h...

OBJECTIVE Despite the clinical importance of an accurate diagnosis in individuals with monogenic forms of diabetes, restricted access to genetic testing leaves many patients with undiagnosed diabetes. Recently, common variation near the HNF1 homeobox A (HNF1A) gene was shown to influence C-reactive protein levels in healthy adults. We hypothesized that serum levels of high-sensitivity C-reactiv...

background: we studied the effects of high protein (hp) and balanced diets (bds) on lipid profiles, and high‑sensitive c‑reactive protein (hs‑crp) levels in obese and overweight women. methods: in a parallel designed randomized controlled clinical trial, 60 healthy women with body mass index ≥25 kg/m2, aged 20–46 years, enrolled in an 8‑week investigation at aerobic clubs. they were categorized...

BACKGROUND This study evaluated the relationship between the G(-866)A polymorphism of the uncoupling protein 2 (UCP2) gene and high-sensitivity C reactive protein (hs-CRP) plasma levels in diabetic patients. METHODS We studied 383 unrelated people with type 2 diabetes aged 40-70 years. Anthropometry, fasting lipids, glucose, HbA1c, and hs-CRP were measured. Participants were genotyped for the...

INTRODUCTION: Hypertension remains the leading preventable risk factor for premature mortality and morbidity worldwide. The use of high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) as global prediction assessment cardiovascular diseases (CVD) in asymptomatic individuals suggests possibility that higher hs-CRP, or subclinical inflammation, maybe one causal factors contributing to an increased CVD you...

Background: Oxidative stress in obese people is an important pathogenic mechanism of an obesity-associated metabolic syndrome. We evaluated the association between circulating leptin levels with biomarkers of oxidative stress in overweight and obese participants. Methods: This study was performed on 189 overweight and obese people aged 18-60 years old. Serum leptin, superoxide dismutase (SOD), ...
