The effects of acute psychological stress on circulating and stimulated inflammatory markers: A systematic review and meta-analysis (2017, background): “…increases in inflammatory mediators in response to acute stress have higher tonic levels of systemic inflammation that are known to predict future risk for cardiovascular disease (Danesh et al, 2004; Hennekens, Buring, Rifai, 2000; Ridker, Rifai, Stampfer, Hennekens, 2000; Ridker et al., 2000).”

Which white blood cell subtypes predict increased cardiovascular risk? (2005, background): “Of these proposed inflammatory markers, C-reactive protein (CRP) has been the most extensively studied and clinically applied to date; however, its value as a predictor of risk has recently been questioned ( 10 ,11), and the need to develop and apply additional complementary inflammatory markers of ”
C-reactive protein and the prediction of cardiovascular events among those at intermediate risk: moving an inflammatory hypothesis toward consensus. (2007, neutral): “The investigators of the Reykjavik Heart Study did not report outcomes by hsCRP levels of (cid:1) 1 mg/l, 1 to 3 mg/l, and (cid:2) 3 mg/l, but did report multivariate adjusted evidence showing that individuals with hsCRP in the highest tertile were signiﬁcantly more likely to suffer future vascular ”
The association of anger and hostility with future coronary heart disease: a meta-analytic review of prospective evidence. (2009, result): “The overall size of associations between anger/hostility and CHD outcomes might seem small; however, it is worth pointing out that this effect size is not markedly different from many others identified in prospective observational epidemiological research ( 82 ).”
The immune response in atherosclerosis: a double-edged sword (2006, background): “Lesser elevations of CRP concentration, measured with a highly sensitive assay and previously considered in the 'normal range,' can be used to predict cardiovascular events in apparently well population”
