Relationship between serum C-reactive protein and obesity in children
Background : Obesity predisposes individuals to cardiovascular diseases.The aim of this research is to study CRP as a prognostic inflamatory factor in children with obesity and overweight in comparison with non obese ones. Materials and Methods: We investigated 80 children aged 8- 10 years assessing...
