Inflammation and Cardiometabolic Disease Edition: hs-CRP and Cardiovascular Disease

Inflammation and Cardiometabolic Disease Edition: hs-CRP and Cardiovascular Disease

Host: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D. [@chutkaMD]

Guest: Regis I. Fernandes, M.D.

Inflammation commonly occurs as a response to injury or infection but can lead to damage when it develops in healthy tissue. It’s now known that inflammation plays a key role in the development of cardiovascular disease. It produces damage to the endovascular arterial cells allowing plaque to form within the artery leading to stenosis, thereby reducing coronary blood flow. What initiates the inflammatory response as it develops in otherwise healthy arteries? How should we use the hs-CRP in measuring inflammation in cardiovascular disease? Does our management of cardiovascular disease result in a decrease in hs-CRP? These are some of the questions I’ll be asking my guest, Regis I. Fernandes, M.D., a preventive cardiologist from the Mayo Clinic as we discuss “hs-CRP and Cardiovascular Disease”.

These talks on Inflammation and Cardiometabolic Disease are sponsored by Novo Nordisk
