Further, there was a strong trend that gender influenced the response of inflammation to higher CVF, (p = 0.07); specifically, in the high fitness group only 3% of males had an elevated hsCRP compared to 26% of the females.
The effect of higher CVF on reducing inflammation was highly significant in males and females in all racial groups; however this relationship was especially strong in the RD group and in male children.
