High-Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein and Lipoprotein-Associated Phospholipase A2 Stability Before and After Stroke and Myocardial Infarction
Stroke, 07/31/09
Elkind MSV et al. – Lp–PLA2 mass levels decrease modestly, whereas hsCRP and Lp–PLA2 activity appear stable over time. Acutely after stroke and MI, hsCRP increases whereas Lp–PLA2 mass and activity levels decrease. These changes imply that measurements made soon after stroke and MI are not reflective of prestroke levels and may be less reliable for long–term risk stratification.
