PREDICTS MORTY IN NEXT 5 YRS?
progressive weight loss occurs for a variety of causes of death reinforces research suggesting that weight loss may be an important prognostic indicator in older persons. Although wasting associated with cancer is confined to a short period, weight loss associated with both CVD and other causes began 5 or more years before death. This finding is consistent with research demonstrating an association between weight loss and both cardiovascular and noncardiovascular mortality (23–26). Weight loss may be a useful marker of physical decline and mortality risk in older persons, and regular assessments of weight may serve as an indicator of health status and mortality risk.
