The webinar will present our article using data from a population-based Norwegian age cohort study of more than 3700 individuals, assessing potential determinants of cardiac myosin binding protein C (cMyC). We identify demographic and clinical determinants of cMyC and investigate the relationship between imaging signs of structural myocardial disease and cMyC in the presumably healthy, general population. Our work is an early step in utilizing concentrations of this novel cardiac biomarker to identify individuals in the general population who are at increased risk of cardiovascular disease. By participating in the webinar, we hope you will join in considering the implications of our results and evaluate the use of cardiac myosin binding protein C in cardiovascular risk assessment of the general population.
