Research Abstract |
We investigated the effects of the combination of metabolic syndrome and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein(hsCRP) level or urinary 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine(OHdG) on cardiovascular disease and all-cause death in general Japanese population. In the cross sectional study, combination of MetS and hsCRP was a good indicator for prevalence of cardiovascular disease. In the prospective study, combination of MetS and hsCRP or 8-OHdG tended to be predictors for all-cause death but we could not find statistically significant relations. The combination of MetS and hsCRP or 8-OHdG may become a good predictor for cardiovascular disease and all-cause death and further follow-up of those participants may be needed to assess these relations.
