We observed a statistically significant association between circulating FABP-4 and risk of CRC in the conditional logistic regression model accounting for the matching factors but without further adjustment (RR highest versus lowest quintile 1.32, 95% CI 1.01, 1.72; RR per SD increment in FABP-4 1.10, 95% CI 1.01, 1.21, Table 3). Here, FABP4 is linked to colorectal carcinoma.
