Among individuals with type 2 diabetes, CRP levels were not significantly different between S319 non-carriers and carriers when adjusted for age, sex, log 2-h post-load glucose, waist circumference, and log SAA (4.44 [95% CI 3.13-6.30] and 4.39 [3.09-6.23] mg/L, respectively; p = 0.95) (all other models p > 0.05; table 4). This evidence concerns the gene CRP and type 2 diabetes mellitus.
