In the unadjusted model, each 1 ng/dL increase in A-FABP increased the probability of MetS by 5.7%, HOMA-IR ≥ 3.4 by 3.7%, hypertension by 3.5%, HDL-C < 50 mg/dL by 17%, TC/HDL-C ≥ 4 by 8.3%, TG/HDL-C ≥ 1.3 by 4%, CRP ≥ 1.0 by 9.1%, and obesity by 18%. The gene discussed is CRP; the disease is metabolic syndrome.
