aSeparate logistic regression models shown for serum CML, sRAGE and esRAGE in which anaemia is the dependent variable.

bOdds ratios are expressed per 1 SD change in serum CML, sRAGE and esRAGE, respectively.

cChronic diseases were hypertension, diabetes, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and renal insufficiency.
