CRP and metabolic syndrome: Despite the large sample size and detailed variable analysis in this study, there are still limitations.First, as a cross-sectional study, it cannot establish causal relationships between walking speed, CRP levels, and MetS.Secondly, walking speed and CRP levels may be influenced by unmeasured confounding factors, such as diet and psychological status.Finally, the sample source may limit the generalizability of the findings, and future research will need to validate these results in a broader population.
