Median values of cfDNA and caspase-3 did not differ significantly between patients with (n = 4) and without diabetes (cfDNA p = 0.20, caspase-3 p = 0.37), with (n = 13) hypertension and without (cfDNA p = 0.11, caspase-3 p = 0.21), with (n = 5), with cardiovascular comorbidity and without (cfDNA p = 0.17, caspase-3 p = 0.35). Here, CASP3 is linked to hypertensive disorder.
