These findings are broadly consistent with those from a recent cross-sectional investigation of 5110 Norwegian men; cases with FMS/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) showed a strong, positive relationship to high sensitivity-CRP level (FMS/CFS M = 4.79 mg/L; OR for ≥10 mg/L vs. <1 mg/L = 2.6, 95% CI: 1.4, 4.6, p = .002; P for trend = .006) after adjustment for age, education, smoking, and cholesterol medication [27]. Here, CRP is linked to myalgic encephalomeyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome.
