1 Interpretation of serum C-reactive protein (CRP) levels for cardiovascular disease risk is complicated by race, pulmonary disease, body mass index, gender, and osteoarthritis  V.B. Kraus, M.D., Ph.D., T.V. Stabler, M.S., G. Luta, M.S., J.B. Renner, M.D., A.D. Dragomir, B.S., J.M.

2 Fig. 1 OA and obesity interact to promote CRP production. In this model, both fat mass and the inflamed joint contribute to CRP induction by the liver. It is controversial whether CRP in turn, at high levels, may promote a proinflammatory state [see Pepys et al28 and Bisoendial et al29].
