Isn't the largest risk factor for developing MM age? The article states that the average age of onset is 70. Are other risk factor like obesity larger?
Not sure if this is worthy of its own spot in the article. I just did a question on a board exam source (USMLE Step 1) and it was referencing the damage to the heart from MM. I haven't been able to find anything specific aside from the hemodynamic changes. My guess was these hemodynamic changes may mess with our heart's output and lead to High-Output Heart Failure. If someone can make a confirmation and maybe fit this in somewhere that would be beneficial. ---- Paul K. | MechE | MSY-2 | Chemist | Let's talk13:46, 24 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
