DKK1 and hypertensive disorder: sclerostin, and Dkk-1 as independent predictors for LVMI, which shows that hypertension is a positive predictor for LVMI (with P value =0.050 and CI = −0.025 to 36.80), while serum Dkk-1 was an independent negative predictor for LVMI (with P value < 0.05 and CI = −0.478 to −0.010).
