The Role Of hs-CRP In Predicting The Likelihood Of Coronary Heart Disease

Abstract

Coronary Heart Disease (CHD) is a disorder of the cardiovascular system, characterized by atherosclerotic lesions. Inflammation is a strong predictor for coronary heart disease. High sensitivity C-Reactive Protein (hs-CRP) is an important biomarker, synthesized in the liver, can predict the severity of CHD. If the hs-CRP level is found to be low 3 mg / L, a person has the potential for severe vascular risk. Therefore, hs-CRP can be used as a predictor of primary CHD prevention, especially if the hs-CRP level is still low.

Hubungan Hs-CRP Dengan Profil Lipid Pada Pasien Obesitas

“…Pengukuran kadar hs-CRP dapat memprediksi tingkat keparahan PJK karena dibuat di hati. Jika tingkat hs-CRP seseorang >3 mg/L, mereka bisa berisiko serius terkena Penyakit Kardiovaskular (Sitepu & Harahap, 2020). Faktor yang memengaruhi kadar hs-CRP yaitu status gizi (obesitas), genetik, diabetes, asupan, aktivitas fisik, merokok, dan konsumsi obat seperti statin (Fitranti et al, 2021).…”
