hsCRP measurements

High-sensitivity CRP (hsCRP) levels in Lifelines participants were determined in blood samples (section: Physical state) using three different lab-methods.
The difference between the three methods are stated in the table.

Variable code Variable name Kit name Supplier Tube type Participants
hscrp_result_all_m_1 SCRP CardioPhase hsCRP Siemens (BNII) Serum ~8k (1A), ~82k (3A)
hscrp_result_all_m_2 LCRP CardioPhase hsCRP Siemens (BNII) Heparin ~49k (1A)
hscrp_result_all_m_3 CRPH CRPL3 Roche (Modular) Heparin ~1k (1A) and ~0.5k (2A)

hscrp_result_all_m_2 and hscrp_result_all_m_3 only differ in the supplier. This does not have an effect on the measured values.
hscrp_result_all_m_1 differs from hscrp_result_all_m_2 and hscrp_result_all_m_3 in the type of tube used to collect the sample. This causes differences in the measured values. hscrp_result_all_m_1 values can be converted to hscrp_result_all_m_2/hscrp_result_all_m_3 using the formula: SCRP = 0.92 x LCRP/CRPH - 0.01.
