Abstract

The inflammatory biomarker high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) adds prognostic information on cardiovascular risk comparable to blood pressure or cholesterol. Values <1, 1 to 3, and >3 mg/l indicate lower, average, or higher relative cardiovascular risk, respectively. Global risk algorithms that include hsCRP outperform those solely using Framingham covariates. Although diet, exercise, and smoking cessation are first steps for patients with a proinflammatory response, JUPITER (Justification for the Use of Statins in Prevention: an Intervention Trial Evaluating Rosuvastatin) trial data demonstrate that statins reduce by 47% the rate of first myocardial infarction, stroke, or confirmed cardiovascular death when given to patients with low-density lipoprotein-C levels of <130 mg/dl and hsCRP of >2 mg/l (hazard ratio: 0.53; 95% confidence interval: 0.40 to 0.69; p < 0.00001). In current U.S. guidelines, hsCRP carries a class IIb assessment and is most appropriate in primary prevention when clinical decisions to initiate statin therapy are uncertain. Ongoing multinational trials are pursuing whether reducing inflammation will decrease vascular event rates.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
