Abstract
Older adults have a higher risk of developing vascular calcification (VC). Circulating miRNAs can be potential risk indicators. However, prior studies used single miRNA mostly, whereas miRNA panels were rarely evaluated. We aimed to examine whether a miRNA panel outperformed each miRNA alone, and analyzed whether advanced age affected VC risk predictive performance offered by the miRNA panel.
