Abstract
We appreciate the author’s comments regarding our article. We agree that the studies included in our meta-analysis reported the association between C-reactive protein (CRP) and cardiovascular events using different methods. Hence, we separated studies reporting this association in terms of quantiles of CRP from those reporting in terms of unit increase in CRP.
