Abstract excerpt
<h4>Aims</h4> While metabolic syndrome (MetS) is observed in dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) patients, its causal role in disease development remains unestablished. This study aims to assess if MetS is a causative risk factor for DCM incidence. <h4>Materials and methods</h4> By leveraging 378,837 UK Biobank participants, instead of the conventional binary MetS, we calculated a continuous metabolic risk score (MRS)...
