There was also a significant association between the use of alcohol, low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and steroids and elevated CRP; logistic regression showed that elevated CRP (OR = 2.13, 95% CI: 1.14–3.99, p = 0.019), body mass index (BMI) (OR = 1.10, 95% CI:1.01–1.90, p = 0.030), diabetes (OR = 2.68, 95% CI:1.24–5.79, p = 0.012) were positively associated with hypertension, while statins use was negatively associated with hypertension (OR = 0.49, 95% CI: 0.25–0.94, p = 0.013). Here, CRP is linked to Hypertension.
