However, when accounting for multiple comparisons between all variables displayed in Table 1 (28 comparisons: p-value adjustment <0.0018 for significance) the following variables remain statistically significant: Age, Race/Ethnicity, BMI, Hypertension, Metabolic Syndrome, Hyperlipidemia, Systolic blood pressure, FRS, and TNFα levels. Here, TNF is linked to hyperlipidemia.
