  1. Model 1: C-reactive protein.
  2. Model 2: Adjusted by Gender and interaction gender x hs-CRP. Gender (coded 1 for male and 0 for female).
  3. Model 3: Adjusted bay Model 2 and age.
  4. Model 4: Adjusted by Model 3 and waist circumference.
  5. Model 5: Adjusted by Model 4 and 24 hours systolic blood pressure (SBP) and 24 hours Heart rate.
  6. Model 6: Adjusted by Model 5 and atherogenic Index.
  7. Model 7: Adjusted by Model 6 and Antihypertensive and Lipid-lowering Drugs.
  8. Interaction gender x hs-CRP IMT maximum: Model 2 (p = 0.023); Model 3 (p = 0.011); Model 4 (p = 0.010) Model 5 (p = 0.012); Model 6 (p = 0.009); Model 7 (p = 0.013).
  9. Interaction gender x hs-CRP CAIx: Model 2 (p = 0.035); Model 3 (p = 0.042); Model 4 (p = 0.050); Model 5 (p = 0.019); Model 6 (p = 0.020); Model 7 (p = 0.015).
  10. In the PWV, the interactions gender x hs-CRP, were not statistically significant.
