Correlations Between the Level of High-Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein and Cardiovascular Risk Factors in Korean Adults with Cardiovascular Disease or Diabetes Mellitus: The CALLISTO Study

Abstract

There is a significant relationship between the degree of cardiovascular risk and the hsCRP level in Korean adults with cardiovascular disease or diabetes mellitus. Assessing the hsCRP levels may thus provide additive value in predicting cardiovascular risks.
