Abstract EN
Objective.
We assessed adolescent anthropometry, lipids, insulin, glucose, and blood pressures to identify factors associated with high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) and its tracking in young adults.
Methods.
Ten-year prospective study of 589 schoolgirls, 321 black, 268 white.
Results.
HsCRP did not differ (P>.08) by race or oral contraceptive use.
HsCRP tracked from age 16 to 25 (r=0.77), 16 to 26 (r=0.50), 24 to 26 (r=0.66), and 25 to 26 (r=0.71), all P≤.02.
By stepwise regression, at age 16, waist circumference accounted for 44.8% of hsCRP variance; BMI accounted for 33.1%, 34.4%, and 31.1% at ages 24, 25, and 26, P<.0001 for all.
Changes in cholesterol and BMI were associated with change in hsCRP from age 24–26 (partial R2=12.3% P<.0001, 6.6% P=.0012).
Changes in BMI and triglyceride (partial R2=8.5% P=.0001, 3.3%, P=.0045) were associated with change in hsCRP from age 25 to 26.
Conclusions.
HsCRP tracks from age 16 to 26, with BMI, waist circumference, and cholesterol as major determinants.
