    Growth differentiation factor-15 is a biomarker for all-cause mortality but less evident for cardiovascular outcomes: a prospective study

    In approximately 4,100 individuals without cardiovascular disease followed about 20 years (Malmo), GDF-15 improved prediction of all-cause mortality beyond hs-CRP and NT-proBNP; associations with specific cardiovascular endpoints were weaker.
