The independent associations of inflammation and oxidative stress parameters with retinal vascular calibers are shown in Table3, adjusting for age and gender in model1, and for all potential confounding factors (current smoking, body mass index, hypertension, HDL cholesterol and estimated glomerular filtration rate) and high-sensitivity C-Reactive Protein (hsCRP) for SOD-2 and GPX-3 activity, and GPX-3 activity for hsCRP and orosomucoid in model2. This evidence concerns the gene GPX3 and Hypertension.
