The associations of self-rated health with cardiovascular risk proteins: a proteomics approach

ConclusionsPoor SRH was associated with raised concentrations of many plasma proteins. However, the relationships were largely attenuated by adjustments for CVD risk factors, comorbidity and psycho-social factors. Leptin and CCL20 were associated with poor SRH in the present study and could potentially be involved in the SRH –CVD link.
