Multivariable linear regression for Log hs-CRP as dependent variable.

Variable	𝛽	𝛽^′	𝑃 value
age (y)*	0.044	0.031	0.025
NT-proBNP*	0.012	0.024	0.017
BMI	0.027	0.164	0.098
E/E^′	0.124	0.235	0.138

Abbreviations: E/E^′, the ratio of E to E^′; 𝛽: Regression coefficient; 𝛽^′: standardized coefficient
*A 𝑃 value of less than 0.05 was considered statistically significant.
