Bone Turnover Markers Including Undercarboxylated Osteocalcin Are Associated With Mortality Risk in Older Men
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Journal of Bone and Mineral Research"
DOI: 10.1002/jbmr.4631
Abstract: Osteocalcin in its undercarboxylated form (ucOC) may influence diabetes risk; however, its relationship with all‐cause and cause‐specific mortality is unclear. Whether other bone turnover markers (BTMs) are associated with mortality risk differently from ucOC also… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/jcsm.13122
Abstract: The body mass index (BMI) is closely related to mortality risk, and energy intake (EI) is essential for maintaining energy balance in weight control. However, self‐reported EI has been shown to lead to a systematic… read more here.

Internalizing psychopathology and all‐cause mortality: a comparison of transdiagnostic vs. diagnosis‐based risk prediction
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2021 at "World Psychiatry"
DOI: 10.1002/wps.20859
Abstract: Previous studies have documented the utility of a transdiagnostic internalizing factor in predicting important future outcomes (e.g., subsequent mental disorder diagnoses). To date, however, no study has investigated whether an internalizing factor predicts mortality risk.… read more here.
