Clinical and biochemical baseline characteristics stratified by tertile values of sFRP3.

NT-proBNP and CRP are displayed as median value (interquartile range). Other variables are shown as number (percentage of total) or as mean (standard deviation) where appropriate. P-value Trend, p-value for trend across all tertiles; P-value 2nd, p-value for 2nd tertile compared to 1st and 3rd tertile combined.NYHA, New York Heart Association; BMI, body mass index; SBP, systolic blood pressure; DBP, diastolic blood pressure; PCI, percutaneous coronary intervention; CABG, coronary artery bypass grafting; LDL, low-density lipoprotein; HDL, high-density lipoprotein; ApoB, apolipoprotein B; ApoA-1, apolipoprotein A-1; eGFR, estimated glomerular filtration rate; MDRD, modification of diet in renal disease; CRP, C-reactive protein; NT-proBNP, amino-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide; sFRP3, secreted frizzled related protein 3; ACE, angiotensin converting enzyme; ARB, angiotensin II receptor blocker.
