Independent associations of d-ROMs and CRP with all-cause mortality

The upper panels show the multivariable-adjusted association between d-ROMs and hazard for all-cause mortality with and without further adjustment for CRP. The lower panels show the multivariable-adjusted association between CRP and hazard for all-cause mortality with and without further adjustment for d-ROMs. Adjustment was done for the 22 potential confounders indicated in the legend of Fig. 2.

Abbreviations: d-ROMs, derivatives of reactive oxygen metabolites; CRP, C-reactive protein; Ln, natural logarithm (log _e); Log, common logarithm (log ₁₀).
