CRP and acute coronary syndrome: Interestingly, the results of the present study did not confirm the associations of CRP with AMI in multivariate Cox regression analysis (Table 5) and in univariate analysis of the associations of CRP with acute coronary syndrome at baseline anamnesis (Supplemental Table S6); however, CRP was independently associated with cardiovascular death based on the results of Cox regression analysis adjusted for age and sex (Table 5).
