摘要：

A medium-sensitivity assay for C-reactive protein (CRP) was compared with a high-sensitivity, enhanced immunoturbidimetric assay in 803 angiographically studied patients. Different absolute CRP values were found by the assays, but there was a high correlation by quartile rank and similar predictive values for death and myocardial infarction. This suggests that the conclusions of previous studies performed using the medium-sensitivity assay are still valid but that cross-study comparisons should use percentile rank.
