Among these 31 proteins, the top 5 proteins with the highest ORs for the associations with hypertension were NT-proBNP (N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide; OR, 1.33 [95% CI, 1.20–1.49]), HGF (hepatocyte growth factor; OR, 1.27 [95% CI, 1.14–1.42]), CEACAM8 (carcinoembryonic antigen-related cell adhesion molecule 8; OR, 1.27 [95% CI, 1.13–1.41]), KIM1 (kidney injury molecule 1; OR, 1.26 [95% CI, 1.13–1.40]), and TGF-α (transforming growth factor alpha; OR, 1.24 [95% CI, 1.11–1.39]). Here, HAVCR1 is linked to Hypertension.
