There was an inverse correlation between the MEDAS score (at higher score higher adherence to the Mediterranean diet) and the CRP concentration (B = −0.034, (CI95% −0.062 – (−0.005)), p = 0.019) even after adjusting by age, gender, hypertension, metabolic syndrome, body mass index, statins treatment and hypertension treatment (B = −0.030, (CI95% −0.058 – (−0.001)), p = 0.042) (Table 2). The gene discussed is CRP; the disease is hypertensive disorder.
