GW28-e0287 Higher High-Sensitivity C Reactive Protein is Associated with Future Premature Ventricular Contraction: a Community Based Prospective Cohort Study

Objectives Elevated high-sensitivity c reactive protein (hs-CRP) has been related to the potential risk of many cardiovascular diseases. Results of multivariable analysis showed that participants of the highest quartile of hs-CRP had significantly increased risk of PVC events as compared with the lo...

Description
Summary:Objectives Elevated high-sensitivity c reactive protein (hs-CRP) has been related to the potential risk of many cardiovascular diseases. Results of multivariable analysis showed that participants of the highest quartile of hs-CRP had significantly increased risk of PVC events as compared with the lowest quartile (HR 1.36; 95%CI 1.12-1.66); and stratified analyses showed similar result in males (HR 1.36; 95%CI 1.12-1.66), but not in females (HR 1.12; 95%CI 0.71-1.79). [...]elevated serum hs-CRP was associated with future PVC in participants without history of myocardial infarction or stroke (HR 1.34; 95%CI 1.09-1.65).
