Table 1. The Correlation Between the Changes of the D-ROMs and HsCRP Levels During A One-year Period .

	D-ROMs (dependent factor)		HsCRP (dependent factor)
	r (P)	β (P)	r (P)	β (P)
Age, years	0.13 (0.30)	0.13 (0.31)	0.18 (0.14)	0.18 (0.15)
Gender, male	0.01 (0.98)	-0.01 (0.93)	0.05 (0.69)	0.03 (0.83)
Body mass index, kg/m2	0.25 (0.04)*	0.11 (0.42)	0.33 (0.01)*	0.24 (0.06)
Mean blood pressure, mmHg	0.23 (0.06)	0.20 (0.12)	0.13 (0.29)	0.04 (0.73)
Total cholesterol, mmoL/L	-0.12 (0.31)	-0.09 (0.47)	-0.11 (0.35)	-0.06 (0.67)
HDL cholesterol, mmoL/L	-0.25 (0.03)*	-0.13 (0.33)	-0.28 (0.02)*	0.14 (0.30)
Triglyceride, mmoL/L	0.01 (0.96)	-0.09 (0.48)	0.10 (0.43)	0.01 (0.97)
Plasma glucose, mmoL/L	0.13 (0.27)	0.09 (0.43)	0.09 (0.48)	0.02 (0.89)
HsCRP, mg/dL	0.40 (< 0.01)*	0.27 (0.04)*	-	-
D-ROMs, U. Carr.	-	-	0.40 (< 0.01)*	0.26 (0.04)*

D-ROMs: diacron reactive oxygen metabolites; HsCRP: high-sensitivity C-reactive protein; HDL: high-density lipoprotein. r: simple correlation test (Pearson’s test), β: multiple linear regression analysis, adjusted for all the measured factors. The triglycerides and hsCRP values were log-transformed because of their skewed distributions. Significance level: *P < 0.05.
