Inflammation in Cardiovascular Disease: Cart, Horse, or Both?
Abstract
n this issue of Circulation, Ridker and colleagues 1 discuss the incremental value of CRP as a predictor of future CVD events.Their conclusion is that CRP is at least additive to HDL and total cholesterol with respect to risk prediction.In fact, there is some evidence that lipids and CRP are better predictors jointly than would be expected by adding up their individual predictive powers.CRP appeared to predict events in those at low risk on the basis of lipids, and CRP-lipid relationships to events were minimally altered by adjustment for other known CVD risk factors.These findings have important implications for CVD risk assessment and risk management.

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.
