In addition, the risk of stroke among RA patients is associated with elevated levels of erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol [7], total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide (anti-CCP) antibodies [8], low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, and C-reactive protein (CRP) [8–11]. The gene discussed is CRP; the disease is stroke disorder.
