Compared with those with normal CRP levels (CRP ≤ 3 mg /L) and blood pressure, the adjusted HRs and 95%CI were 1.86 (0.90–3.85) for individuals with elevated-CRP levels alone, 2.70 (1.71–4.28) for those with hypertension alone, and 4.80 (2.83–8.12) for those with comorbid elevated-CRP levels and hypertension. The gene discussed is CRP; the disease is Hypertension.
