OBJECTIVE - The author examined the relationship between C-reactive protein and BMI and diabetes status among 16,573 participants aged greater than or equal to 20 years of the Third National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (1988-1994).RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS - The study had a cross-sectional design.RESULTS - Geometric mean concentrations of C-reactive protein were lowest among individuals with a BMI < 18.5 kg/m(2) and increased with increasing BMI categories. Restricting the analysis to participants without various medical conditions did not change the relation. After adjusting for age, sex, race or ethnicity and education, using logistic regression analysis, odds ratios for an elevated C-reactive protein concentration (greater than or equal to 85th percentile of the sex-specific C-reactive protein concentration distribution) among participants with a BMI of 25 to
