CRP and non-small cell lung carcinoma: In this nested case–control study, we found all three CRP Scores inversely associated with risk of NSCLC after additionally adjusting for methylation-predicted pack-years (n = 150 pairs; Score 1 OR: 0.57 [0.40, 0.81]; Score 2 OR: 0.62 [0.45, 0.84]; Score 3 OR: 0.65 [0.44, 0.95]).
