Systematic review and meta-analysis of reduction in all-cause mortality from walking and cycling and shape of dose response relationship [PDF]
Background and objectiveWalking and cycling have shown beneficial effects on population risk of all-cause mortality (ACM). This paper aims to review the evidence and quantify these effects, adjusted for other physical activity (PA).Data sourcesWe ...

Prediction of premature all-cause mortality: a prospective general population cohort study comparing machine-learning and standard epidemiological approaches [PDF]
Background: Prognostic modelling using standard methods is well-established, particularly for predicting risk of single diseases. Machine-learning may offer potential to explore outcomes of even greater complexity, such as premature death.
