摘要：
C-reactive protein (CRP) is a relatively nonspecific marker of inflammation. However, it can be used to monitor the severity and progression of some well-defined cardiovascular diseases. For example, it can predict serious events in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) who are hospitalized with acute coronary syndrome, myocardial infarction (MI), or advanced peripheral vascular disease. In this article, the authors review the role of CRP in the diagnosis, monitoring, and treatment of various forms of ischemic and inflammatory cardiovascular disease.
