Early Change in C-Reactive Protein and Venous Thromboembolism in Patients Treated With Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors.
JACC CardioOncol
December 2024
Medical University of Vienna, Department of Medicine I, Division of Hematology and Hemostaseology; Comprehensive Cancer Center Vienna, Vienna, Austria.
Background: Patients with cancer treated with immune-checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have a substantial risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE). The association between ICI-induced inflammation and hypercoagulability is unclear, and no biomarkers currently exist to stratify VTE risk.
Objectives: The authors sought to determine the association between the early changes in C-reactive protein (CRP) after ICI initiation and the risk of VTE.
Low-grade infections in nonunion of the femur and tibia without clinical suspicion of infection - Incidence, microbiology, treatment, and outcome.

Institute for Biomechanics, Paracelsus Medical University, Strubergasse 21, 5020 Salzburg, Austria; Department of Trauma Surgery, BG Unfallklinik Murnau, Professor-Küntscher-Str. 8, 82418 Murnau am Staffelsee, Germany.
Treatment algorithms for fracture nonunion depend on the presence or absence of bacterial infection. However, it is often impossible to identify infection preoperatively. While some infections may present with clinical signs of infection, low-grade infections lack infection signs and have a clinical presentation similar to aseptic nonunion.

Article Synopsis
- Statins are key medications used to prevent cardiovascular disease by not only lowering lipids but also reducing inflammation, measured by C-reactive protein (CRP).
- Two significant genetic loci linked to how individuals respond to statin treatment in terms of changes in CRP levels were identified: APOE and HNF1A, both of which are associated with various health conditions like coronary artery disease and diabetes.
- Further analysis suggests that the APOE-E4 variant may influence the effectiveness of statins, hinting at its potential role in personalized healthcare for those with cardiovascular and related conditions.
Effect of Probiotics on C-Reactive Protein Levels in Schizophrenia: Evidence from a Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

Instituto de Investigación Sanitaria Hospital 12 de Octubre (imas12), Madrid, Spain; CIBERSAM-ISCIII (Biomedical Research Networking Centre for Mental Health), Spain; Complutense University of Madrid (UCM), Madrid, Spain.
Background: Inflammatory markers play a pivotal role in schizophrenia, as they provide insight into the neuroinflammatory processes occurring in the context of the disorder. Elevated levels of these markers, particularly C-reactive protein (CRP), can indicate an underlying immune system dysregulation, potentially influencing symptom severity and progression. Recognizing these markers has led to investigate the use of probiotics as an adjuvant to improve the treatment of schizophrenia.

Int J Biol Macromol
January 2025
Tehran University of Medical Sciences, Islamic Republic of Iran.
The COVID-19 pandemic has drawn significant attention to factors affecting disease severity, especially in older adults. This study explores the relationship between Klotho, an anti-aging protein, and COVID-19 severity. Conducted at Tehran's Firouzgar Hospital, this case-control study involved 279 participants, assessing serum levels of Klotho, inflammatory markers (C-reactive protein (CRP), Interleukin 6 (IL-6)), and Vitamin D.
