Comparative Value of Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (ESR) and C-Reactive Protein (CRP) Testing in Combination Versus Individually for the Diagnosis of Undifferentiated Patients With Suspected Inflammatory Disease or Serious Infection: A Systematic Review and Economic Analysis [Internet].
CRP is defined as a pentameric protein comprised of five identical, non-covalently linked 23-KD subunits arranged in cyclic symmetry in a single plane. It is a component of the innate immune response and has both pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory actions.

the elderly, to re-examine the correlation, if any, between ESR and C-reactive protein (CRP) and to compare their utility and limitations for both health screening and clinical management of patients.
Erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) and C-reactive protein (CRP) are markers of inflammatory conditions and have been used extensively by clinicians both in outpatient and inpatient settings. It is important to understand the physiologic principles behind these two tests so clinicians may use them ….
Objective: A thorough understanding of the similarities and differences between these two serological markers, including factors that affect measurements, is necessary for the proper utilization and interpretation of ESR and CRP.
