The CD14+CD309+Tie2+ subpopulation count showed a positive association with LVEF (r=0.639; P=0.001), the Е/Еm ratio (r=0.52; P=0.001), eGFR (r=0.486; P=0.002); and a negative association with the NYHA class (r=-0.657; P=0.001), SUA (r=-0.628; P=0.001), T2DM (r=-0.610; P=0.001), the NT-pro-BNP level (r=-0.373; P=0.001), the serum concentrations of low-density lipoproteins (r=-0.354; P=0.001), the TG level (r=-0.258; P=0.043), adherence to smoking (r=-0.285; P=0.042), the body mass index (r=-0.272; P=0.046). This evidence concerns the gene KDR and type 2 diabetes mellitus.
