High-sensitivity C-reactive protein (CRP) has been investigated extensively as a marker for predicting the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). CVD accounts for a large proportion of mortality and morbidity in American Indians; we sought to test the association of CRP and CVD in a population-based American Indian cohort 45 to 74 years old.
