Figure 1.
Distribution of circulating C-reactive protein levels in the Ghanaian and Dutch study populations.
The graph is restricted to CRP levels up to and including 10 mg/L.

Study sample characteristics.
Figure 2.
Relationship between BMI and C-reactive protein.
Each point represents an individual. Circles represent the Dutch study population; squares the Ghanaian study population. The y-axis is on a logarithmic scale.
Figure 3.
C-reactive protein levels in the Ghanaian and Dutch study populations.
Columns indicate geometric mean CRP levels with 95% confidence intervals from general linear models including no (crude) or multiple (age/sex and age/sex/BMI) covariates. The right most columns show the mean levels of CRP for values of CRP below 10 mg/L. *p-value<0.05, **p-value<0.001.
