This result matches those already published, suggesting that CRP levels positively correlate with coronary artery calcifications in patients with both early and advanced stages of CKD and that in patients on hemodialysis, CRP is associated with valvular calcifications, with aortic valve calcifications leading to aortic stenosis, with arterial calcification score, and in general with cardiovascular (both valvular and vascular) calcifications [22,27,31,32,33]. The gene discussed is CRP; the disease is aortic valve calcification.
