1 RESULTS: Ninety-three patients (37%) with signs of inflammation (CRP > or = 1 mg/dL) had significantly lower levels of tHcy, tCys, and serum Alb than 157 noninflamed patients. thcy C-reactive protein Homo sapiens
2 tHcy and tCys levels correlated positively with serum Alb levels and negatively with CRP levels (rho = -0.24; P < 0.0001; rho = -0.15; P < 0.05, respectively) and other inflammation markers. thcy C-reactive protein Homo sapiens
3 Multivariate analysis showed that serum Alb, CRP, plasma folate, and vitamin B12 levels were independently associated with tHcy levels after adjustment for other variables. thcy C-reactive protein Homo sapiens
