Plasma Adiponectin, Body Mass Index, and Mortality in Patients With Chronic Heart Failure
Caroline Kistorp,Jens Faber,Søren Galatius,Finn Gustafsson,Jan Frystyk,Allan Flyvbjerg,Per Hildebrandt +6 more
TL;DR: A high adiponectin level was a predictor of mortality, independent of risk markers of CHF severity, presumably because of its role as a marker for wasting.
Journal ArticleDOI
N-Terminal Pro-Brain Natriuretic Peptide, C-Reactive Protein, and Urinary Albumin Levels as Predictors of Mortality and Cardiovascular Events in Older Adults
TL;DR: Measurements of NT-proBNP provide prognostic information of mortality and first major cardiovascular events beyond traditional risk factors and were a stronger risk biomarker for cardiovascular disease and death than CRP was in nonhospitalized individuals aged 50 to 89 years.

The spectrum of thyroid disease and risk of new onset atrial fibrillation: a large population cohort study
Christian Selmer,Jonas Bjerring Olesen,Morten Lock Hansen,Jesper Lindhardsen,Annemarie Olsen,Jesper Clausager Madsen,Jens Faber,Peter Riis Hansen,Ole Dyg Pedersen,Christian Torp-Pedersen,Gunnar Gislason +10 more
TL;DR: The risk of atrial fibrillation was closely associated with thyroid activity, with a low risk in overt hypothyroidism, high risk in hyperthyroidism and a TSH level dependent association with risk ofAtrial fafibrillation across the spectrum of subclinical thyroid disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
The LEAF questionnaire: a screening tool for the identification of female athletes at risk for the female athlete triad
Anna K. Melin,Åsa Tornberg,Sven O. Skouby,Jens Faber,Christian Ritz,Anders Sjödin,Jorunn Sundgot-Borgen +6 more
TL;DR: The LEAF-Q is brief and easy to administer, and relevant as a complement to existing validated DE screening instruments, when screening female athletes at risk for the Triad, in order to enable early detection and intervention.
