Age, DM, smoking, hypoalbuminemia, higher levels of CTGF, NT-ProBNP, and hs-CRP also significantly correlated with CV mortality (HR: 1.071, 95% CI: 1.023–1.121, p < 0.01; 3.007 (1.296–6.973), p < 0.05; 3.302 (1.479–7.370), p < 0.05; 0.390 (0.153–0.997), p < 0.05; 1.015 (1.006–1.025), p < 0.01; 1.004 (1.003–1.005), p < 0.01; 3.617 (2.366–5.530), p < 0.001, respectively). Here, NPPB is linked to Hypoalbuminemia.
