Notes: Model 1 is adjusted for age, sex, race; Model 2 is adjusted for covariates in Model 1 and self-rated health, body mass index, cancer, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, angina, smoking status, drinking status, coronary heart disease, heart failure, cystatin C, C-reactive protein and estimated glomerular filtration rate. FSTL-3 = follistatin-like protein-3; GDF = growth differentiation factor; Health ABC = Health, Aging, and Body Composition study.
