Background: High sensitivity C reactive protein is a protein that occur in acute phase of inflammation. hs-CRP is considered as a predict factor of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular risk. Framingham risk score is a strong predictor of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular risk and death. In Viet Nam there was still few studies about hs-CRP and Framingham risk score. Objective: To study the concentration of hs-CRP in peoples in Hue city, also the correlation of hs-CRP and cardiovascular and cerebrovascular risk factor, Framingham risk score. Methods: Clinical data of 1471 people age from 30-74 living in Hue city. We do clinical exam, paraclinical exam. We find out the correlations between hs-CRP and the cardiovascular and cerebrovascular risk factor, the correlations between hs-CRP and Framingham risk score. Results: (i) The concentration of hs-CRP of people in Hue city was 1.54 ± 3.81 mg/l. The concentration of hs-CRP in hyper cholesterol, hyper LDL, hypertension, smoke, obesity and hypo HDL group was significant higher than in the others groups (p<0.05). There was positive significant correlation between the concentration of hs-CRP and systolic blood pressure r=0.061(p< 0.05); (ii) There was positive significant correlation betwee the concentration of hs-CRP and cardiovascular risk (r=0.083; p<0.01) cerebrovascular risk (r=0.068; p<0.05). Conclusions: hs-CRP was a predict risk factor in cardiovascular and cerebrovascular. Key words: hs-CRP, Framingham, cardiovascular, cerebrovascular
