The mode of multivariate analysis showed that diabetes (β = 3.594; P = 0.040), hepatitis C infection (β = 4.057; P = 0.008), levels of serum albumin (β = −5.656; P = 0.024), C-peptide (β = −0.292; P = 0.002), ABI (β = −9.041; P = 0.031), and Ln-transformed hsCRP were significantly associated with BDI. The gene discussed is ALB; the disease is diabetes mellitus.
