In individuals without hypertension, platelet count was not significantly correlated with CIMT (β = −0.05, p = 0.356) (Figure 2d), but platelet count was significantly positively correlated with the natural log of circulating CD34-positive cell count (β = 0.26, p < 0.001) (Figure 2c). The gene discussed is CD34; the disease is Hypertension.
