Associations with outcomes were evaluated with Cox regression models on the composite of CV death, spontaneous myocardial infarction (sMI), or stroke; and on CV death or sMI separately, including adjustment for clinical risk factors and biomarkers (cTnT‐hs, NT‐proBNP, cystatin C, CRP‐hs, and GDF‐15). This evidence concerns the gene CRP and stroke disorder.
