Does analysis of variability of high sensitivity C-reactive protein in lowland Ecuador reveal no evidence of chronic low-grade inflammation?
This study is the first to investigate CRP variability in a nonindustrialized, high infectious disease environment. It documents a pattern of variation over time that is distinct from prior research, with no evidence for chronic low-grade inflammation. These results may have substantial implications for research on inflammation and diseases of aging globally, as well as for scientific understandings of the regulation of inflammation.
