Higher hemoglobin levels are an independent risk factor for adverse metabolism and higher mortality in a 20-year follow-up
Abstract The aim of this study was to cross-sectionally and longitudinally examine whether higher hemoglobin (Hb) levels within the normal variation associate with key components of metabolic syndrome and total and cardiovascular mortality. The study included 967 Finnish subjects (age 40–59 years) f...
