CRP and hypertensive disorder: We constructed the multivariate linear regression analysis to elucidate the association of FFAs with inflammation parameters, after adjusting for traditional cardiovascular risk factors including age, SBP, DBP, smoking, history of hypertension, diabetes mellitus and hyperlipidemia, which showed after natural logarithm transformation that FFAs were associated with hs-CRP (β = 0.003, p = 0.048) and WBC (β = 0.042, p = 0.008), respectively.
