Moreover, TSAT ≤20% was significantly associated with left ventricular hypertrophy [odds ratio (OR)  = 1.46], high-sensitivity C-reactive protein ≥3 mg/dL (OR = 2.09), N-terminal pro B-type natriuretic peptide ≥10000 pg/mL (OR  = 2.04), and troponin-T≥0.1 ng/mL (OR  = 2.02), on logistic regression analysis. Here, CRP is linked to left ventricular hypertrophy.
