Association between CRP rs1800947 genotypes, dexamethasone use, postoperative CRP level and morbidity in adult cardiac surgical patients in post-hoc analysis of the observational INFLACOR cohort trial.

Abstract excerpt

Postoperative inflammation contributes to organ dysfunction and complications after cardiac surgery. C-reactive protein (CRP) is a common marker of systemic inflammation. In this study, we assessed how postoperative CRP levels and their trajectories are associated with the CRP rs1800947 gene variant and perioperative dexamethasone use, and how these factors relate to postoperative morbidity. We analysed CRP...
