The relationship between inflammation and prothrombotic state in atrial fibrillation (AF) is well recognized. This suggests a potential role for high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), a marker of systemic inflammation, in improving prediction of stroke in participants with AF. Cox proportional hazard analysis was used to examine the risk of stroke in 25,841 participants (40% black, 55% women) with and without AF who were enrolled in the REGARDS study between 2003 and 2007. Baseline AF (n=2,132) was ascertained by electrocardiogram and self-reported history of previous physician diagnosis. Stroke events were identified and adjudicated during 8.3 years of follow up. A total of 655 incident strokes occurred during follow up. In a model adjusted for socio-demographics, traditional stroke risk factors, and use of aspirin and warfarin, higher levels of hs-CRP were associated with increased overall stroke risk (HR (95%CI): 1.30 (1.10–1.54) and 1.06 (1.01–1.12) for hs-CRP> 3 mg/L and per 1-standard deviation (1-SD) increase, respectively. Higher levels of hs-CRP continued to be associated with incident stroke in participants without AF (HR (95%CI):1.31(1.09–1.57) and 1.06 (1.01–1.12) for hs-CRP> 3 mg/L and per 1-SD increase respectively) but not in those with AF (HR (95%CI): 1.22(0.78–1.91), and 1.01(0.82–1.23), for hs-CRP> 3 mg/L and per 1-SD increase respectively). In conclusion, although hs-CRP was significantly associated with stroke risk in this population, it seems to be limited to those without AF. These findings suggest a limited value of hs-CRP in improving stroke risk stratification in persons with AF.
