The multivariable-adjusted medians (interquartile-range) were 2.91 (1.47, 5.24) mg/L in patients with CKD vs. 1.91 (0.99, 3.79) mg/L in controls without CKD (p = 0.39 for group difference) for CRP; 1.86 (1.51, 2.63) pg/mL vs. 1.26 (1.01, 1.98) pg/mL (p < 0.0001) for TNF-α; and 2.53 (1.49, 4.42) pg/mL vs. 1.39 (0.95, 2.15) pg/mL (p = 0.04) for IL-6, respectively. Here, IL6 is linked to chronic kidney disease.
