First, we used a crude (unadjusted) model and found that lymphocyte count (OR: 1.381; 95% CI: 1.240–1.539; p < 0.001), hs‐CRP (OR: 1.083; 95% CI: 1.043–1.124; p < 0.001), HCHR (OR: 1.055; 95% CI: 1.041–1.070; p < 0.001) and LHR (OR: 1.253; 95% CI: 1.213–1.259; p < 0.001) were associated with the presence of MetS among male population. Here, CRP is linked to metabolic syndrome.
