Direct comparison of cutoff values revealed that while CRP ≥2.0 mg/L—commonly used in Western populations—showed only a nonsignificant trend for MACE prediction in this analysis (RR: 1.20; 95% CI: 0.95-1.52; P = 0.12), a threshold of ≥1.0 mg/L was a significantly stronger predictor (RR: 1.50; 95% CI: 1.14-1.97; P = 0.004).
