Association between serum α1-antitrypsin levels and all-cause mortality in the general population: the Nagahama study

Abstract Circulating levels of inflammatory proteins have to be prognostic markers of all-cause mortality. α1-Antitrypsin (AAT) is a major inflammatory plasma protein, but its association with all-cause mortality is unclear. We aimed to evaluate the prognostic significance of AAT levels for all-caus...
