Elevated levels of both myeloperoxidase (MPO) and oxidative α1-antitrypsin (oxAT) are associated with high high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) and increasing carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT), whereas elevated oxAT alone contributes to decrease ... Elevated levels of both myeloperoxidase (MPO) and oxidative α1-antitrypsin (oxAT) are associated with high high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) and increasing carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT), whereas elevated oxAT alone contributes to decrease in geriatric nutritional risk index.
