The mean calculated salivary CRP level detected in the OPMD group was 2.51 ng/mL (SD = 3.19, median = 0.68, interquartile range = 0.41–5.99) and was 0.7 ng/mL (SD = 1.20, median = 0.31, interquartile range = 0.25–0.64) for the control group (Table 2 and Table 3). The gene discussed is CRP; the disease is oculopharyngeal muscular dystrophy.
