Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: It remains unclear if inflammation itself may induce cancer, if inflammation is a result of tumor growth, or a combination of both exists. The aim of this study was to examine whether C-reactive protein (CRP) levels and CRP gene variations were associated with an altered risk of colorectal, lung, breast, or prostate cancer. PATIENTS AND METHODS: A total of 7,017 participants age > or = 55 years from the...
