CRP and diabetes mellitus: Followingadditional adjustment for potential confounders such as alcohol consumption,smoking, CRP levels, diabetes status, and sleep disorders in the Adjusted IImodel, the correlation between CMI and SBP weakened further but remainedsignificant (β = 0.51, 95% CI: 0.13–0.89, p< 0.01), andlikewise for DBP (β = 0.83, 95% CI: 0.27–1.40, p< 0.01).
