However, it was positively correlated with several clinical parameters of infection and inflammation (ESR, CRP, LDH, and PCT) (r = 0.314, p = 0.001, r = 0.376, p < 0.001, r = 0.272, p = 0.004 and r = 0.426, p = 0.01 respectively), and negatively correlated with metabolic indicators (TG, TC, LCHL, Apo B, and ALB) (r = - 0.201, p =0.037, r = - 0.229, p = 0.017, r = -0.255, p = 0.008, r = - 242, p = 0.011 and r = - 0.318, p = 0.001, respectively). The gene discussed is ALB; the disease is infection.
