lüll The use of high-sensitivity assays for C-reactive protein in clinical practice Musunuru K; Kral BG; Blumenthal RS; Fuster V; Campbell CY; Gluckman TJ; Lange RA; Topol EJ; Willerson JT; Desai MY; Davidson MH; Mora SNat Clin Pract Cardiovasc Med 2008[Oct]; 5 (10): 621-35High-sensitivity assays that accurately measure levels of the inflammatory biomarker C-reactive protein have been proposed for use in assessments of risk for cardiovascular disease (CVD). A growing body of evidence supports recommendations for these tests in selected asymptomatic individuals deemed to be at intermediate risk of CVD according to traditional risk-factor assessments and who do not already warrant chronic treatment with aspirin and statin therapy. Data suggests that these high-sensitivity assays should be used in combination with measurements of LDL-cholesterol levels to assist risk stratification of selected patients for prevention of CVD.|Aged[MESH]|Biomarkers/blood[MESH]|C-Reactive Protein/*analysis[MESH]|Cardiovascular Diseases/blood/*etiology/prevention & control[MESH]|Cholesterol, LDL/blood[MESH]|Cost-Benefit Analysis[MESH]|Diabetes Complications/blood/etiology[MESH]|Female[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA Reductase Inhibitors/therapeutic use[MESH]|Hypertension/blood/complications[MESH]|Inflammation Mediators/*blood[MESH]|Male[MESH]|Metabolic Syndrome/blood/complications[MESH]|Middle Aged[MESH]|Predictive Value of Tests[MESH]|Risk Assessment[MESH]|Risk Factors[MESH]|Risk Reduction Behavior[MESH]|Secondary Prevention[MESH]|Sensitivity and Specificity[MESH] |
