Bernstein type theorems for CMC hypersurfaces in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$

Is there any Bernstein type theorems for CMC hypersurfaces in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ in the literature?

More precisely I would like to know if there is an answer to the following

QUESTION: Let $f : \mathbb{R}^n \to \mathbb{R}$ be a smooth function such that $\mathrm{graph}(f)$ is a constant mean curvature hypersurface of $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$. Is it true that $\mathrm{graph}(f)$ must be an affine hyperplane?

I don't know much about CMC hypersurfaces and I don't know where to look for an answer. Even if the question has a negative answer, I would like to know if there are counterexamples or if one can get an affirmative answer under some volume growth condition.

Any help will be very much appreciated! Thanks!
