Journal Article
Niyi-Odumosu, F. A., Bello, O. A., Biliaminu, S. A., Owoyele, B. V., Abu, T. O., & Dominic, O. L. (2016). Resting serum concentration of high-sensitivity c-reactive protein (hs-CRP) in sportsmen and untrained male adults. Nigerian Journal of Physiological Sciences, 31(2), 177-181

There is an inverse relationship between regular physical activity and concentration of serum inflammatory markers, with variations in resting CRP in trained and untrained subjects. The effect of acute and prolonged exercises has been studied on infl...
