M and M/I are dependent variables; Age, measures of body composition and CRP are independent variables. Standardized coefficients (β) and p values for CRP are shown. M and M/I were square root transformed, and BMI and CRP were log-transformed before analysis. n, number of subjects. p<0.05 appear in bold.
