Increased Predictive Ability of BMI but not Other Risk Factors with Time in Men: 39-Year Follow-Up of Total Mortality in the Oslo Study

摘要

ObjectiveRisk factor associations to mortality may change, in part due to removal of high-risk persons. We compared strengths of association and ability of risk factors to predict total mortality across short (<15 years), medium (15-29 years) and long (30-39 years) follow-up.
