| 1 | Effect of L-carnitine Supplementation on Circulating C-reactive Protein Levels: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. | Carnitine | C-reactive protein | Homo sapiens |
| 2 | There have been a number of clinical reports suggesting that supplementation with L-carnitine can modulate systemic inflammation and lower circulating CRP concentrations, but the results have not been consistent. | Carnitine | C-reactive protein | Homo sapiens |
| 3 | METHODS: A comprehensive literature search in Medline, Scopus and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials was performed in December 2012 to identify clinical trials investigating the impact of oral L-carnitine supplementation on serum/plasma CRP concentration. | Carnitine | C-reactive protein | Homo sapiens |
| 4 | Meta-analysis of included trials revealed a significant reduction of circulating CRP concentrations in subjects under L-carnitine intervention compared to the control treatment. | Carnitine | C-reactive protein | Homo sapiens |
| 5 | CONCLUSIONS: The overall findings of the present meta-analysis support the clinically relevant benefit of L-carnitine supplementation in lowering the circulating levels of CRP. | Carnitine | C-reactive protein | Homo sapiens |
