The Cumulative Exposure to High-Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein Predicts the Risk of Chronic Kidney Diseases.
Summary of "The Cumulative Exposure to High-Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein Predicts the Risk of Chronic Kidney Diseases."
This study was to characterize the association of cumulative exposure to increased high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) with chronic kidney diseases (CKD).

This study aimed to investigate the association between cumulative C-reactive protein (cumCPR) and arterial stiffness.
Emerging evidence suggests that specific plasma ceramides are involved in the pathophysiology of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and other inflammation-associated diseases. However, only scanty informati...
Clinical Trials
The UKPDS risk score is recommended to assess global risk for future coronary heart disease (CHD) events in primary prevention. Recently, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) has em...

Objectives: The outcomes of heart transplantation are very favorable but inflammation still plays a critical role in deterioration of chronic transplants. Periodontal diseases are not only...
Serum Proteomics to Predict Gemcitabine Sensitivity in Breast Cancer
Tumors are heterogeneous with varying response to chemotherapeutic agents. We hypothesize that tumors that are sensitive to a particular chemotherapeutic agent have a distinctive tumor pro...
C-Reactive Protein as a Predictor for Airway Hyper-Responsiveness
Background: Increased serum high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) has been associated with airway inflammation in asthma and may serve as a surrogate marker for the presence of airw...
C-Reactive Protein as a Predictor of Stem Cell Transplant Complications
The purpose of this study is to determine if C-Reactive Protein levels are predictive for complications post transplant.
Medical and Biotech [MESH] Definitions
Chromatography, High Pressure Liquid
Liquid chromatographic techniques which feature high inlet pressures, high sensitivity, and high speed.
Risk Reduction Behavior
Reduction of high-risk choices and adoption of low-risk quantity and frequency alternatives.
Rabies Vaccines
Vaccines or candidate vaccines used to prevent and treat RABIES. The inactivated virus vaccine is used for preexposure immunization to persons at high risk of exposure, and in conjunction with rabies immunoglobulin, for postexposure prophylaxis.
Protein Kinase C
An serine-threonine protein kinase that requires the presence of physiological concentrations of CALCIUM and membrane PHOSPHOLIPIDS. The additional presence of DIACYLGLYCEROLS markedly increases its sensitivity to both calcium and phospholipids. The sensitivity of the enzyme can also be increased by PHORBOL ESTERS and it is believed that protein kinase C is the receptor protein of tumor-promoting phorbol esters.
Insurance Pools
An organization of insurers or reinsurers through which particular types of risk are shared or pooled. The risk of high loss by a particular insurance company is transferred to the group as a whole (the insurance pool) with premiums, losses, and expenses shared in agreed amounts.
