In a recent meta-analysis, including patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS), it was deduced that patients with moderately elevated hs-CRP (3.1-10 mg/dL) and severely elevated hs-CRP (>10mg/dL) have 1.40 times and 2.18 times greater long-term risk of recurrent CV events or even death respectively [3]. Here, CRP is linked to acute coronary syndrome.
