Association of high-sensitivity CRP and FEV1%pred: A study on non-pulmonary disease in a population in Beijing, China

This study used data from a prospective cohort study to evaluate the association between high-sensitivity C-reactive protein levels and lung function parameters (ie FEV1 % predicted and FEV1/FEV6 ratio) in 1047 middle-aged and elderly individuals with no evidence of underlying lung disease. Lung function testing was undertaken using the COPD-6 device.
