A recent meta-analysis aimed to describe the relationship between C-reactive protein levels and erectile dysfunction.

Statins lower the levels of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol and C-reactive protein (CRP). Whether this latter property affects clinical outcomes is unknown. We evaluated relationships bet ...

The liver releases small amounts of C-reactive protein (CRP) to fight infections and inflammation. However, high C-reactive protein levels indicate significant inflammation caused by a health ...
