Abstract
In diabetic patients with nephropathy, CRP does not add predictive information above and beyond that provided by traditional established risk factors. Whether this holds true for other populations with similar risk burdens is an important public health question that should be addressed. A secondary finding of a link between CRP and congestive heart failure requires further confirmation.
