Note: in the logistic regression analysis, Model 1 adjusted for gender and age. Model 2 incorporates gender, age, smoking history, drinking history, history of dyslipidemia, and history of diabetes as confounding factors, and Model 3 incorporates lipid levels and blood glucose levels on the basis of Model 2. We can see that after adjusting for various confounding factors, CRP still significantly affects the prognosis of patients.
