A research team from University Groningen (NL) led by Prof. H. van Goor and Prof. M. de Borst, identified T50 as a new cardiovascular risk factor in the general population. In collaboration with Calciscon, T50 was measured in blood samples from 6231 individuals.
Upon 8.3 year follow up, T50 was independently associated with cardiovascular and all cause mortality.
