Amount of physical activity necessary for a normal level of high-sensitivity C-...
Queiroz,Ciro Oliveira; Pitanga,Francisco; Lotufo,Paulo Andrade; Molina,Maria Del Carmen Bisi; Aquino,Estela Maria Leão deABSTRACT BACKGROUND: Studies have shown that physical activity levels can be inversely associated with high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) levels. However, the amount of physical activity required to maintain normal hs-CRP levels is still a matter for speculation. OBJECTIVE: To identify the amount of physical activity necessary to discriminate the hs-CRP levels in adults. DESIGN AND SETTING: Cross-sect...
