Association of mercury exposure with the serum high-sensitivity c-reactive protein level in korean adults

HIGHLIGHTS

SUMMARY

    Few studies have examined the association between blood concentration of Hg and the hs-CRP level, as a sensitive marker of CVD risk, in the general Korean population. Total Hg in blood was measured using a cold-vapor atomic absorption spectrometric method and a dedicated Hg analyzer (M-6000A; CETAC Technologies, Omaha, NE, United_States). In a cohort study of adults in the United_States (US), blood Hg level was not significantly related to the risk of all-cause or CVD-related mortality. In the study of Korean adults, a high level of Hg exposure significantly . . .
