A high sensitivity assay is more accurate than a classical assay for the measurement of plasma CRP levels in endometriosis

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is associated with chronic subclinical inflammation. C-reactive protein (CRP), a marker of inflammation, could serve as a biomarker of endometriosis. We tested the hypothesis that a high sensitivity CRP assay (hsCRP) is more accurate than a classical CRP assay in the detect...
