<i>Results</i>: Patients with PAD were older (<i>p</i> = 0.006), had a higher prevalence of diabetes (<i>p</i> = 0.010), and exhibited higher levels of triglycerides (<i>p</i> = 0.008), fasting glucose (<i>p</i> < 0.001), and C-reactive protein (CRP, <i>p</i> < 0.001), but lower anti-oxLDL Ab levels (<i>p</i> = 0.008). Here, CRP is linked to diabetes mellitus.
