Reduction of C-reactive protein levels through use of a multivitamin Timothy S Church, MD, MPH, PhD, Conrad P Earnest, PhD, Kherrin A Wood, MS, James B Kampert, PhD The American Journal of Medicine Volume 115, Issue 9, Pages 702-707 (December 2003) DOI: 10.1016/j.amjmed.2003.08.024

Figure 1 C-reactive protein levels at baseline and after 6 months of intervention in the placebo (n = 44) and multivitamin (n = 43) groups. Numbers adjacent to the scatter bars represent median values. Numbers above the scatter bars represent median change. The asterisk (*) indicates P = 0.01 for between-group comparisons of changes. The American Journal of Medicine 2003 115, 702-707DOI: (10.1016/j.amjmed.2003.08.024)

Figure 2 Mean change in C-reactive protein levels after 6 months of intervention in the placebo and multivitamin groups, by baseline C-reactive protein level, after adjustment for baseline C-reactive protein level, age, body mass index, sex, hormone replacement therapy, and statin use. Error bars represent 95% confidence intervals. The American Journal of Medicine 2003 115, 702-707DOI: (10.1016/j.amjmed.2003.08.024)
