Results of multivariable Cox regression demonstrated non-significance (p = 0.17) for peak versus base subjects in a model adjusted for gender, age, BMI, hypertension, metabolic syndrome, smoking, and levels of apoA-I, apoA-II, apoB, apoE, total cholesterol, CRP, HDL-C, and triglycerides. This evidence concerns the gene APOA2 and hypertensive disorder.
