However, whether CRP itself is truly part of the causal pathway between inflammation and RV dysfunction, or may only be indicative of a generalized inflammatory state, remains uncertain. Our analysis cannot determine the direction of the association (i.e., definitive conclusions on causality cannot be made). Therefore, we consider the results of this cohort study as hypothesis-generating, and we do not recommend modification of the current approach to risk stratification of patients with acute symptomatic PE.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0235"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">23</span></a> Since higher CRP levels may indicate a higher extent of cardiac inflammation, and more susceptibility to RV dysfunction, our data may inform the design of randomized trials evaluating the efficacy and safety of anti-inflammatory drugs for patients with acute symptomatic PE.</p><p id="par0135" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Several potential limitations of our study merit consideration. This hypothesis-generating study was underpowered for detecting a relationship between CRP level and 30-day all-cause mortality, and some results may be indicative of a type II error. Despite our best efforts, the possibility of residual confounding remains. Nevertheless, after adjusting for age, and severity of PE, we still found a consistent CRP level-outcome relationship. We used a single measurement of CRP, while concentrations might fluctuate even during the acute phase of PE. However, based on current guidelines and the published literature, prognostication of PE is based on the findings at the time of PE diagnosis. We did not measure other inflammatory markers such as IL-6, neutrophil-to-lymphocyte-ratio, platelet-to-lymphocyte-ratio or systemic-immune-inflammation-index (SII).<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0240"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">24</span></a> While different groups of investigators have not agreed upon standard definitions for echocardiographic findings of RV dysfunction, the study used a set of criteria that have been commonly employed in the medical literature.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0215"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">19</span></a> Finally, we did not collect detailed data on auto-inflammatory and infectious diseases that may increase CRP, or prior use of statins that may decrease CRP. However, the sensitivity and subgroup analyses suggest that those conditions may have limited influence on the results of this study.</p><p id="par0140" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">In conclusion, we observed an association between CRP level and echocardiographic RV dysfunction and mortality among hemodynamically stable patients with acute symptomatic PE. Additional research may confirm these results, and may further support the investigation of adjunct anti-inflammatory therapies for PE patients who have evidence of systemic inflammation and RV dysfunction.</p></span><span id="sec0085" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="sect0120">Authors’ Contributions</span><p id="par0145" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Study concept and design: Najarro, Bikdeli, Jimenez.</p><p id="par0150" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Acquisition of data; analysis and interpretation of data; statistical analysis: Najarro, Rodríguez, Morillo, Jara-Palomares, Vinson, Muriel, Álvarez-Mon, Yusen, Bikdeli, Jimenez.</p><p id="par0155" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Drafting of the manuscript: Yusen, Bikdeli, Jiménez.</p><p id="par0160" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Critical revision of the manuscript for important intellectual content: Najarro, Rodríguez, Morillo, Jara-Palomares, Vinson, Muriel, Álvarez-Mon, Yusen, Bikdeli, Jimenez.</p><p id="par0165" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Study supervision: Jimenez.</p></span><span id="sec0090" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="sect0125">Funding</span><p id="par0170" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">None declared.</p></span><span id="sec0095" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="sect0130">Conflict of Interests</span><p id="par0175" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The authors state that they have no conflict of interests.</p></span></span>" "textoCompletoSecciones" => array:1 [ "secciones" => array:11 [ 0 => array:3 [ "identificador" => "xres2230697" "titulo" => "Graphical abstract" "secciones" => array:1 [ 0 => array:1 [ "identificador" => "abst0005" ] ] ] 1 => array:3 [ "identificador" => "xres2230698" "titulo" => "Abstract" "secciones" => array:4 [ 0 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "abst0010" "titulo" => "Background" ] 1 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "abst0015" "titulo" => "Methods" ] 2 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "abst0020" "titulo" => "Results" ] 3 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "abst0025" "titulo" => "Conclusions" ] ] ] 2 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "xpalclavsec1867933" "titulo" => "Keywords" ] 3 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "sec0005" "titulo" => "Introduction" ] 4 => array:3 [ "identificador" => "sec0010" "titulo" => "Methods" "secciones" => array:7 [ 0 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "sec0015" "titulo" => "Study Design" ] 1 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "sec0020" "titulo" => "Patients, Setting, and Eligibility Criteria" ] 2 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "sec0025" "titulo" => "Diagnosis of PE" ] 3 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "sec0030" "titulo" => "C-reactive Protein Assay" ] 4 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "sec0035" "titulo" => "Echocardiography Assessment" ] 5 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "sec0040" "titulo" => "Follow-up and Outcome Assessment" ] 6 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "sec0045" "titulo" => "Statistical Analysis" ] ] ] 5 => array:3 [ "identificador" => "sec0050" "titulo" => "Results" "secciones" => array:5 [ 0 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "sec0055" "titulo" => "Patients and Baseline Characteristics" ] 1 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "sec0060" "titulo" => "Relationship Between CRP Levels and Baseline Characteristics" ] 2 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "sec0065" "titulo" => "Association With RV Dysfunction" ] 3 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "sec0070" "titulo" => "Relationship Between CRP and Mortality" ] 4 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "sec0075" "titulo" => "Subanalyses" ] ] ] 6 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "sec0080" "titulo" => "Discussion" ] 7 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "sec0085" "titulo" => "Authors’ Contributions" ] 8 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "sec0090" "titulo" => "Funding" ] 9 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "sec0095" "titulo" => "Conflict of Interests" ] 10 => array:1 [ "titulo" => "References" ] ] ] "pdfFichero" => "main.pdf" "tienePdf" => true "fechaRecibido" => "2024-02-04" "fechaAceptado" => "2024-03-27" "PalabrasClave" => array:1 [ "en" => array:1 [ 0 => array:4 [ "clase" => "keyword" "titulo" => "Keywords" "identificador" => "xpalclavsec1867933" "palabras" => array:4 [ 0 => "Pulmonary embolism" 1 => "Prognosis" 2 => "C-reactive protein" 3 => "Right ventricle dysfunction" ] ] ] ] "tieneResumen" => true "resumen" => array:1 [ "en" => array:3 [ "titulo" => "Abstract" "resumen" => "<span id="abst0010" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="sect0015">Background</span><p id="spar0010" class="elsevierStyleSimplePara elsevierViewall">Right ventricle (RV) dysfunction increases the risk of death from pulmonary embolism (PE).
