In addition, the participants in two articles had carotid atherosclerosis/intima thickening and dyslipidaemia [30, 33]; in four other studies, the participants exhibited aortic stenosis [26], a high level of hs-CRP [32], a high level of hs-CRP/dyslipidaemia [29], and cerebrovascular diseases/diabetes [35]. This evidence concerns the gene CRP and aortic stenosis.
