Inflammatory Obesity Phenotypes, Gender Effects, and Subclinical Atherosclerosis in African Americans: The Jackson Heart Study.

Arteriosclerosis, thrombosis, and vascular biology - 1 Dec 2016

Lin Albert, Lacy Mary E, Eaton Charles, Correa Adolfo, Wu Wen-Chih

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: Reasons for variations in atherosclerotic burden among individuals with similar levels of obesity are poorly understood, especially in African Americans. This study examines whether high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) is useful for discriminating between benign and high-risk obesity phenotypes for subclinical atherosclerosis in African Americans. APPROACH AND RESULTS: Participants from the...
