Otvos says MVX mortality-risk score is ‘virtually unassociated’ with age

402 ‒ NMR blood analysis: how mortality risk and more can be assessed from a single blood sample
What was said
""MVX scores are virtually unassociated with age. >> What? Yes. Unassociated with age.""
Otvos says LabCorp’s NMR-derived “metabolic vulnerability index” (MVX) does not simply rise with ageing, despite age being the strongest overall predictor of death. He frames this as a central and counterintuitive finding behind MVX’s reported association with all-cause mortality in multiple cohorts.
