It turned out that hypertension (p = 0.0001), diabetes (p < 0.0001), male gender (p = 0.0048), atrial fibrillation (p = 0.0481), metabolic syndrome (p < 0.0001), low CTRP9 (p = 0.011), and advanced age (p = 0.0008) are among the independent risk factors of all-cause mortality, while only high HDL (p = 0.0045) was indicative of low all-cause mortality. Here, C1QTNF9 is linked to metabolic syndrome.
