(b) wherein the presence and/or level of ATT and/or TTR or fragments thereof is correlated with an increased risk of mortality and, wherein
(c) said increased risk of mortality and/or poor disease outcome is given if the level of ATT is below a certain cut-off value and/or the level of fragments thereof is above a certain cut-off value and/or
(d) said increased risk of mortality and/or poor disease outcome is given if the level of TTR is below a certain cut-off value and/or the level of fragments thereof is below a certain cut-off value.
