Sub-group analysis for the pro-inflammatory markers indicated that combined aerobic and resistance training had the greatest effect (SMD: -0.3, 95% CI: -0.5, -1.9, p < 0.001), that prostate (SMD: -0.5, 95% CI: -0.8, 0.1, p = 0.004) and breast cancer populations were most responsive (SMD: -0.2, 95% CI: -0.3, -0.1, p = 0.001), and that C-reactive protein (SMD: -0.5, 95% CI: -0.9, -0.06, p = 0.025) and tumor necrosis factor (SMD: -0.3, 95% CI: -0.5, -0.06, p = 0.004) were the most sensitive to change.
Serum IL-6 level (hazard ratio, 13.230; 95% confidence interval, 1.285-136.214; P=0.030) and triple-negative subtype (hazard ratio, 11.739; 95% confidence interval, 1.415-97.362; P=0.023) were independent prognostic factors for OS, and CRP expression level was an independent prognostic factor for RFS in patients with breast cancer (hazard ratio, 18.571; 95% confidence interval, 2.240-153.949; P=0.007).
Association between C-reactive protein and radiotherapy-related pain in a tri-racial/ethnic population of breast cancer patients: a prospective cohort study.
The aim of this study was to establish the effect of breast cancer surgery in middle aged women on the serum <sub>(s)</sub> and plasma <sub>(p)</sub> brain-derived neurotrophic factor concentrations [BDNF]<sub>s</sub> and [BDNF]<sub>p</sub>, respectively, in relation to the serum C-reactive protein [CRP]<sub>s</sub> concentration measured before and at 24 hours after surgery.
The results indicate that a direct negative association and an indirect association through influencing the CRP level were observed between dietary magnesium intake and breast cancer risk.
We evaluated whether the olive-derived polyphenol hydroxytyrosol combined with omega-3 fatty acids and curcumin would reduce CRP and musculoskeletal symptoms in breast cancer patients receiving adjuvant hormonal therapies.
Total metabolic rate, physical activity level, mean MET and steps, fatigue, self-perceived cognitive functioning , and biomarkers (C-reactive protein [CRP], interleukin 6, macrophage migration inhibiting factor [MIF], tumor necrosis factor [TNF]-α, brain-derived neurotrophic factor [BDNF], insulin-like growth factor 1 [IGF1]) were assessed in 60 patients with breast cancer in the aftercare phase before ( t<sub>0</sub>) and 8 months after ( t<sub>1</sub>) the intervention.
In this study, the time courses of two inflammation biomarkers, interleukin (IL)-6 and C-reactive protein (CRP), following adjuvant chemotherapy of breast cancer, were characterized.
We provide first evidence that the proinflammatory marker CRP may partially mediate the association of ENL with postmenopausal breast cancer survival, which supports hormone-independent mechanisms.
The observed effect modification is in the opposite direction of a previous case-control study finding and warrants further investigation.<b>Impact:</b> Associations of higher CRP levels with incident breast cancer and survival after breast cancer may depend on BMI.
Eighty-four HER2-negative patients with cT2-4N0-3M0 BC responded to questionnaires and had CRP measured before treatment (T0), after FEC100 (T1), after taxanes before surgery (T2), and at two-year follow-up (T3).
The aim of this study is to investigate the importance of levels of the inflammation markers, interleukin-33 (IL-33), soluble ST2 receptor of IL-33 (sST2), procalcitonin (PCT), and CRP on differential diagnosis of IGM and breast cancer (BC).
Insulin users were found to have lower C-peptide and higher IL-6, TNF-α and CRP levels, of which elevated CRP and TNF-α were associated with poorer BC outcomes (p=0.003, MVP=0.210).
The purpose of this study was to determine if pro-inflammatory (interleukin-6 [IL-6], C-reactive protein [CRP]), and coagulation (D-dimer) factors were associated with pre-chemotherapy functional status in women with stage I-III breast cancer.
We hypothesized that genes in ALOX/COX pathways and CRP polymorphisms would be associated with breast cancer risk and mortality in our sample of Hispanic/Native American (NA) (1430 cases, 1599 controls) and non-Hispanic white (NHW) (2093 cases, 2610 controls) women.
We investigated common serum markers of inflammation: C-reactive protein (CRP), albumin, haptoglobin and white blood cells (WBC) in relation to breast cancer incidence, severity and survival.
Interestingly, when stratifying by cancer type, marginally increased risks were observed for CRP1846G/A polymorphism in colorectal cancer (AA vs AG+GG: OR=1.17, 95% CI=1.00-1.36, PH=0.27) and significantly decreased risks were found for CRP1846G/A polymorphism in breast cancer (AA vs GG: OR=0.73, 95% CI=0.56-0.95, PH=0.93; A vs G: OR=0.88, 95% CI=0.79-0.99, PH=0.54).
