Abstract

The association between C- reactive protein and type 2 diabetes was investigated in Basra city/Iraq. The results of 100 diabetes patients showed that 32% had a significant high level of CRP. There was no correlation between the high level of C-reactive protein and age, sex and the period of diabetes. These results suggest that elevated CRP levels are independently associated with T2D.
