Correlation Between High-sensitivity C-reactive Protein and Reactive Oxygen Metabolites During A One-year Period Among Asymptomatic Subjects
Table
| D-ROMs (dependent factor) | HsCRP (dependent factor) | |||
| r (P) | β (P) | r (P) | β (P) | |
| D-ROMs: diacron reactive oxygen metabolites; HsCRP: high-sensitivity C-reactive protein; HDL: high-density lipoprotein. r: simple correlation test (Pearson’s test), β: multiple linear regression analysis, adjusted for all the measured factors. The triglycerides and hsCRP values were log-transformed because of their skewed distributions. Significance level: *P < 0.05. | ||||
