CRP and age-related macular degeneration: Using the logistic regression analysis, a significant association was obtained between occurence of advanced-exudative AMD and CRP values (OR:1.16, 95% CI: 1.03–1.32, p = 0.018), fibrinogen (OR: 1.77, 95% CI: 0.99–3.15, p = 0.05), TAS concentration (OR: 7.45, 95% CI: 3.97–14.35, p<0.001) albumin (OR: 1.25, 95% CI: 1.11–1.41, p = 0.0001) and uric acid (OR: 1.006, 95% CI: 1.00–1.02, p = 0.003) (χ2 = 27.3, p = 0.0003) (Table 2).
