Postmenopausal T2DM patients with subclinical myocardial injury also had increased age (73 vs. 68 years, p < 0.0001), DM duration (20 vs. 10 years, p < 0.0001), systolic BP (SBP) (149 vs. 141 mmHg, p = 0.008) and CRP (2.48 vs. 1.67 mg/L, p = 0.033) (Table 2). This evidence concerns the gene CRP and diabetes mellitus.
