The Prognostic Value of hsCRP in CVD/CKD Among East Asian Population: A Scoping Review.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Systemic inflammation marked by high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) significantly influences cardiovascular disease (CVD) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) progression, yet its prognostic value in the East Asian population remains unclear.

Objectives

This scoping review evaluates the prognostic value of hsCRP for CVD and CKD within these populations.

Methods

We conducted electronic searches in PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane Library. English studies published before January 9, 2024, related to hsCRP and CVD/CKD in East Asian population were included (Protocol pre-registration number: INPLASY202490133).

Results

A total of 117 studies compared hsCRP levels between CVD/CKD patients and population without CVD/CKD; 30 studies explored the relation
