BACKGROUND Kidneys are vital organs for excretory and many other biochemical functions in the human body. Most chronic diseases end up damaging the kidneys, acute to chronic, based on the cause and duration. Chronic kidney disease is a sequence of damages to the renal cells and parenchyma leading to progressive deterioration of kidney function, which eventually develops into terminal stage of chronic kidney failure. Chronic renal failure leads to a pro-oxidant state, which leads to damage to the renal cells and parenchyma and the amount of intracellular oxidative stress or extracellular oxidative stress has a relation to the severity of renal failure either directly or indirectly. The study aimed to find the correlation between high sensitivity c-reactive protein (hs-CRP) to lipid peroxidation product, malondialdehyde (MDA). METHODS This prospective study was designed and conducted from January 2018 to December 2019 in the Department of Biochemistry, Government Medical College, Ananthapuramu. The study comprised a total of 70 subjects in the age group of 35 - 65 years. The subjects of the approved study plan were divided into two groups; 35 subjects were healthy controls (group-1), and 35 subjects were chronic renal failure (CRF) patients. A blood sample was collected in Government General Hospital, Anantapuramu. RESULTS The sample was analysed for estimation of blood urea, plasma glucose, serum creatinine, Malondialdehyde (MDA) and C-reactive protein (CRP). The mean value of blood urea, serum creatinine, serum hs-CRP, serum MDA was higher in CRF (group-2) patients when compared to healthy controls (group-1) (p < 0.0001). We observed a positive correlation between serum MDA and serum creatinine (r = 0.46832), hs-CRP (r = 0.0234). CONCLUSIONS In CRF, oxidative stress is obviously evident, but the inflammation induced oxidative stress which can be corrected if detected early will reduce oxidative damage. Our study shows that there is an elevation in hs-CRP and MDA which confirms the presence of oxidative damage, inflammation and probably inflammation induced oxidative damage.

The predictive role of high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), number of tooth extractions, and oral infections for mortality in people with and without diabetes is unclear. This prospective cohort study is a 12 1/2-year follow-up of the Oslo II study, a health survey in 2000. In all, 12,764 men were invited. Health information was retrieved from 6434 elderly men through questionnaire information, serum measurements, and anthropometric and blood pressure measurements. Diabetes was reported by 425 men. Distinct differences were observed in baseline characteristics in individuals with and without diabetes. In the diabetes group, age and hs-CRP were statistically significant whereas in the nondiabetes group, age, hs-CRP, number of tooth extractions, tooth extractions for infections and oral infections combined, nonfasting glucose, systolic blood pressure, total cholesterol, regular alcohol drinking, daily smoking, and level of education were independent risk factors. The number of tooth extractions <5 was inversely related whereas more extractions increased the risk. Multivariate analyses showed that hs-CRP was a significant predictor in persons with diabetes and tooth extractions and oral infections combined; the number of teeth extracted and hs-CRP were for persons without diabetes. Infection and inflammation were associated with mortality in individuals both with and without diabetes.

Obesity and severe obesity are increasing serious health problems with an epidemic percentage in most countries. In Sleeve gastrectomy, a part of the stomach structure is removed, limiting its capacity by about two to three. A total of thirty blood samples were collected from patients with obesity and the result was compared with healthy person throughout the time from November 2019 to September 2020. Before sleeve gastrectomy and after more than 6 months of sleeve surgery, the sample was collected from the Medical City/Baghdad Teaching Hospital, the withdrawal was again taken at home to have pre and post sleeve gastrectomy, Patient age ranged between [20-46] years for obese patients and healthy control. Then the serum samples were obtained from patients and control group to screen for C-reactive protein by agglutination method. The result of the present study found that the positivity of CRP in pre-operation is higher than that of post-operative with high significance [P<0.005].

Abstract Background: Chronic renal failure causes a number of physical problems in patients. Hemodialysis treatment and the stress brought along by the treatment are high and this circumstance sets the ground for alexithymia. Alexithymic feelings basically emerge as restriction in the world of emotion and thought, and inability to recognize physiological changes. Biomarkers that are indicators of physical change are influential in the stress lives of individuals. They lead to negative changes in the physical and mental lives of patients who have chronic kidney failure and individuals who receive hemodialysis treatment. This research was carried out as a relationship seeker in order to determine the influence of urea, creatinin, sodium, potassium, hemoglobin, hematocrit, albumin, calcium, phosphorus and C-reactive protein biomarkers on stress and alexithymia in individuals, who are diagnosed with chronic renal failure and receive hemodialysis treatment. Methods: The research environment was formed of patients who underwent hemodialysis treatment in a hospital in Turkey. The subject group was completed of 72 individuals. Demographic data form, biochemical data form, Hemodialysis Stressor Scale and Toronto Alexithymia Scale were used in the research. Results: It was found that the levels of perceived stress of individuals who participated in the research were high at all dimensions, and 59.7% were alexithymic. The means of the total scale scores of all patients were calculated as 87.81±13.59 for HSS and 62.46±9.84 for TAS. The relationship between TAS-20 and HSS and selected biomarkers were determined (p<0.05). Conclusion: It was concluded that stress and alexithymic feelings were high in patients who received hemodialysis treatment. It was concluded that there is a relationship between C-reactive protein, creatinin, sodium, hemoglobin, hematocrit, potassium from the biomarkers and the scales and scale sub-dimensions. It is necessary to increase the awareness of nurses on the importance of the skills to communicate with individuals who have to cope with stress, manage emotions, and have high stress and emotional deprivation.

Objective. Previous studies have indicated that cigarette smokers are more likely to develop type 2 diabetes and that both smoking and type 2 diabetes are associated with C-reactive protein (CRP). This study examined whether CRP mediates the association between smoking quantity and type 2 diabetes.Methods. Nine hundred and eighty-four current Chinese smokers were selected from a community-based chronic disease survey conducted in Guangzhou and Zhuhai. Type 2 diabetes was defined according to the WHO 1999 criteria. CRP was measured with flow cytometry. Binary logistic regression was performed to assess the mediation.Results. A positive association was observed between smoking quantity and type 2 diabetes (P<0.05). After controlling for potential confounders, daily cigarette consumption was significantly associated with higher CRP levels. Current smokers with type 2 diabetes had higher CRP levels than smokers without type 2 diabetes. The association between the smoking quantity and type 2 diabetes was mediated by CRP, which accounted for 50.77% of the association.Conclusions. This study provides further evidence that smoking quantity is positively associated with type 2 diabetes and suggests that the association between smoking and type 2 diabetes might be mediated by CRP.

Background: Primary intra cerebral hemorrhage (ICH) has high rate of disability and death. Many factors was supposed to be predictors of the outcome. The significance of measuring C-reactive protein (CRP) levels to predict the outcome is uncertain, and data have been controversial. The objective of our clinical study was to determine the relationship of hs-CRP levels with bad outcome. The authors tested if (independent of confounding factors) hs-CRP levels was elevated on admission (< 24 hours after ictus). Fifty patients with acute spontaneous hemorrhagic stroke, within 24 hours of onset confirmed by CT brain were admitted at neurology department, Mansoura University Hospital from June 2017 to September 2018. Age and sex cross-matched 50 healthy persons were studied as control group. Patient and control groups were subjected to full history, general and neurological examination, GCS on admission, National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) on admission, ICH score and Canadian scale on admission and after 30 days, Venous Blood samples were taken within 24 hours of onset and tested for routine laboratory investigations (liver function, serum creatinine, CBC and blood glucose) and High Sensitive C-Reactive Protein level using Enzyme Immunoassay Test Kit. Computed tomography (CT) brain was repeated 72 hours later. Multivariable regression analyses were used to evaluate associations of hs-CRP concentration and ICH outcome. Kaplan–Meier analysis was used for survival. Results: This study revealed that Hs-CRP is significantly higher in patient group (9.3 mg/l) when compared to control group (0.68 mg/dl) with p value < 0,001. There was statistically significant correlation between NIHSS and hs-CRP levels but there was no statistically significant correlation between hs-CRP levels and stroke outcome. Conclusion: Taking these covariates into multivariable analysis revealed that there is correlation between hs-CRP and hemorrhagic stroke but it cannot be used as a predictor of its outcome.

Introduction: Anemia is one of the most common complications of kidney failure. The kidney is responsible for the production of erythropoietin, a key hormone in erythropoiesis. Insufficient production of erythropoietin due to impaired kidney functions and also inflammation could explain this anemia. This study aimed at contributing to a better understanding of the mechanisms of erythropoietin in anemia observed in kidney failure. Methods: The study population consisted of 138 people: 92 with chronic renal failure (46 not on dialysis, 46 on hemodialysis) and 46 voluntaries as control without kidney failure. Serum concentrations of urea, creatinine, C-reactive protein (CRP), serum iron, ferritin and transferrin were determined using the Cobas C311 Hitachi machine. The erythropoietin assay was performed on the ELISA chain. Results: Lower mean values ​​of EPO, increased CRP and decreased iron were observed in CKF patients (EPO: 5.66 ± 0.97 mIU / L; CRP: 45 ± 7.46 mg / l ; Iron: 12.46 ± 0.85 µmol / l), and patients under dialysis (EPO: 9 ± 0.51 mIU / L; CRP: 9 ± 2.66 mg / l; Iron: 10.07 ± 0.54 µmol / l) compared to controls (EPO: 18 ± 1.29 mIU / L; CRP: 2 ± 0.30 mg / l; Iron: 15.85 ± 0.56 µmol / l). Conclusion: Anemia in chronic renal failure is thought to be due to an erythropoietin deficiency but also to an exacerbation of inflammation with a disruption of the iron status.

Background: Obesity, characterized by increased fat mass and is currently regarded as a proinflammatory state and frequently associated with increased risk of cardiovascular diseases including Myocardial Infarction and also future risk for development of metabolic disorders such as T2DM. Highsensitivity C-reactive protein is a well-known inflammatory marker. Objective: In this study we aimed to determine the levels of serum high-sensitive C-reactive protein in obese parsons with normal glucose tolerance (NGT) and obese with impaired fasting glucose (IFG) individuals. Methodology: This was a case-control study which was conducted in the Department of Biochemistry, ZH Sikder Women’s Medical College, Dhaka during the period of July 2014 to June 2015. The age, sex and body mass index (BMI ≥ 30 kg / m²) matched 25 obese subjects with NGT were selected as control group and 25 obese patients with IFG were selected as case group. We measured levels of serum high sensitive Creactive protein in all groups. Subjects of both obese groups had significantly higher hs-CRP levels than the normal range. Results: A total number of 50 subjects were recruited for this study of which 25 obese subjects with NGT were selected as control group and 25 obese patients with IFG were selected as case group. The level of hs-CRP in obese with NGT and with IFG were found 2.91±1.56 mg/L & 3.42±1.72 mg/L, respectively. There are no significant difference between hs-CRP levels of obese subjects than the subjects with IFG (p>0.1). Conclusion: This study finding has concluded that obesity raises serum hsCRP level. IFG obese individuals are not at much higher cardiovascular and metabolic risk level than normal obese parsons. Bangladesh Journal of Infectious Diseases 2017;4(1):21-24

Objective: To review the role of elevated C - reactive protein (CRP) as a marker for predicting the development of Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD). Methods: An online search was conducted using the most trusted medical data base PubMed and the articles published in peer-reviewed journals within the last 5 years (from the year 2005 to date) to collect evidence about the association of C-reactive protein with Peripheral Arterial Disease, using keywords like C-reactive protein, hs-C-reactive protein, inflammation, atherogenesis, peripheral arterial disease and their combinations. Out of 240 articles shown during online search on PubMed, only 17 articles related to the role of CRP and High sensitivity CRP (hs-CRP) as a marker in PAD. Results: 17 articles based on the role of CRP and High sensitivity CRP (hs-CRP) as a marker in PAD were studied and evaluated thoroughly working on their study design and outcomes. Almost all the 17 studies showed strong association hs-CRP with PAD. The results are described in the form of a table. Conclusion: CRP seems to be a marker of severity of PAD and it may serve as a strong prognostic indicator.

SummaryBackground:The objective here is to examine the role of overall oxidative stress in the etiopathogenesis of gluten-sensitive enteropathy disease and its relationship with gluten free diet and autoantibodies.Methods:Eighty gluten-sensitive enteropathy patients and 80 control group participants were included in the study. As oxidative stress parameters, we researched total antioxidant status (TAS), total oxidant status (TOS), oxidative stress index (OSI), paraoxonase-1 and arylesterase parameters in the serum samples of gluten-sensitive enteropathy patients.Results:In comparison to the control group, gluten-sensitive enteropathy patients had lower TAS, paraoxonase-1 and arylesterase levels and gluten-sensitive enteropathy patients had considerable TOS and OSI levels. In contrast, patients who agreed to the gluten free eating routine had a higher OSI proportion and patients who did not conform to the gluten free eating regimen had a lower paraoxonase-1 level. An affirming reciprocation was de tected amidst TOS and OSI proportion and gluten-sensitive enteropathy autoantibodies and C-reactive protein levels and a negative correlation was found between arylesterase level and gluten-sensitive enteropathy autoantibodies.Conclusions:We observed oxidative stress levels to be higher in gluten-sensitive enteropathy patients contrasted with the control group. Oxidative stress level showed differences in gluten-sensitive enteropathy patients depending on gluten diet content and autoantibody positivity. In point of fact, C-reactive protein and gluten-sensitive enteropathy autoantibodies are identified with oxidative anxiety parameters resulting in the possibility that oxidative stress might be successful in the gluten-sensitive enteropathy pathogenesis.
