Abstract: Abstract In this study, we have evaluated the clinical value of the high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) level in predicting the risk of coronary artery disease (CAD) in hyperglycemic subjects of Bangladesh. A total of 201 participants were selected for this study and fasting venous blood samples are collected from them for measuring fasting plasma glucose (FPG), serum total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), LDL-cholesterol (LDL-C) and HDL-cholesterol (HDL-C), hs-CRP, apolipoprotein A-1, apolipoprotein B and lipoprotein(a). CAD risk of study subjects was estimated with the use of Framingham Risk Score (FRS). Out of 201, 91 study participants are found as normal fasting glucose (NFG), 56 as impaired fasting glucose (IFG) and 54 as diabetes mellitus. The average levels of TC, TG, LDL-C, HDL-C, TC/HDL-C ratio, apolipoprotein A-1, apolipoprotein B and lipoprotein(a) in NFG, IFG and diabetes are not significantly different between each group. Statistically significant (p
