Interventional study reveals associations of body fat percentage and nutritional status with hs-CRP in hyperlipidemia, highlighting potential targets to lower cardiovascular risk.
Key Points
Elevated body fat percentage and poor nutritional status correlate significantly with higher hs-CRP levels, driving systemic inflammation in hyperlipidemic individuals.
Significant hs-CRP associations emerged with X²=0.043 (p<0.05) for body fat percentage, mirroring parallel associations observed with clinical nutritional status assessments.
Assessment using bioelectrical impedance analysis and ELISA immunoassay over four weeks supports targeted lifestyle interventions to manage cardiovascular risk in hyperlipidemia.
