Are plasma concentrations of vitamin B12 associated with risk of all-cause mortality among adults from the general population of the Netherlands?

https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamanetworkopen/fullarticle/2758742

Findings In this population-based cohort study including 5571 adults, higher plasma concentrations of vitamin B12 were associated with a 25% increased adjusted risk of all-cause mortality per 1-SD increase.

what do the following have in common: Australia, Canada, USA, Hong Kong, Jamaica, Liberia, Namibia, New Zealand, Singapore, Taiwan, Caribbean Netherlands, East Timor, Ecuador, El Salvador, the Federated States of Micronesia, the Marshall Islands, Palau, Zimbabwe

they all call their currency "the dollar"

and yet somehow, magically, nobody accidently buys Zimbabwean dollars when they want Australian dollars

strangely, nobody crys foul and accuses Taiwan of trying to scam people into thinking they're getting Canadian dollars

Nobody ever went into a coffee shop and discovered that they couldn't buy their coffee because they had the wrong dollars

currency exchanges sell all these "dollars" side by side and amazingly somehow the fact that they're all called dollars causes no confusion

Also, while we're all here, this is a good a time as any to point out that BCH is Bitcoin: a Peer-to-peer Electronic Cash System

[Diplomacy] Early 2036 Indonesia Reaches Out To the United States, the Netherlands and the People's Republic of Vietnam.

With the recent disgusting genocides taking place in the Korean Peninsula, the Indonesian people cannot stand by idly. President Prakosoputra on January 2^(nd) released a public statement inviting French, Dutch and American troops to be based on the Riau and Northern Maluku Islands. Though not as close as allies such as Japan, it is at least closer than the countries these brave soldiers herald from.

To the People's republic of Vietnam, armaments are offered in the form of 150 Pindad Anoa armored personal carriers and their crewmen, and a gift of 5,000 SS2 Assault Rifles.

Not only does Indonesia make these efforts to assist her allies, but to save an innocent people from the massacre of a tyrant.
