Changes of body mass index in relation to mortality: results of a cohort of 42,099 adults.
<h4>Background</h4>High Body-Mass-Index (BMI) is associated with increased all-cause mortality, but little is known about the effect of short- and long-term BMI change on mortality. The aim of the study was to determine how long-term weight change affects mortality.<h4>Methods and...
