CRP correlated positively with HAV (b=0.22 [0.04, 0.39], p=0.018), GGO (b=0,22 [0.01, 0.43], p=0.041), reticulations (b=0.21 [0.04, 0.38], p=0.017), overall extent of ILD (b=0.22 [0.03, 0.41], p=0.023) and negatively with lung volume (b=−0.18 [-0.36, 0.00], p=0.045). The gene discussed is CRP; the disease is interstitial lung disease.
