Using multiple cause of death information to eliminate garbage codes

open access: yesDemographic Research, 2021
Background: International comparisons of mortality largely depend on the quality of data. With more than 20Š of deaths annually assigned to ill-defined cardiovascular conditions, the mortality level due to well-defined causes of death is under-registered

Dual targeting of RET and SRC synergizes in RET fusion‐positive cancer cells

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Despite the strong activity of selective RET tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), resistance of RET fusion‐positive (RET+) lung cancer and thyroid cancer frequently occurs and is mainly driven by RET‐independent bypass mechanisms. Son et al. show that SRC TKIs significantly inhibit PAK and AKT survival signaling and enhance the efficacy of RET TKIs in ...

Thresholds for clinical practice that directly link handgrip strength to remaining years of life: estimates based on longitudinal observational data

open access: yesBMJ Open, 2022
Objective Muscle strength is a powerful predictor of mortality that can quickly and inexpensively be assessed by measuring handgrip strength (HGS). What is missing for clinical practice, however, are empirically meaningful cut-off points that apply to ...

Survival and Years of Good Life in Finland in the very long run

open access: yesFinnish Yearbook of Population Research, 2020
In this paper we apply the recently developed wellbeing indicator ‘Years of Good Life’ (YoGL) to Finland, which has the world’s longest annual demographic time series starting in 1722. We combine this with scenarios up to 2100 as developed under the SSP (

HOW WELL DOES SATELLITE FINE MODE AEROSOL PRODUCT VALIDATE WITH GROUND-BASED MEASUREMENTS FOR MODIS AND HIMAWARI-8? [PDF]

open access: yesThe International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2018
Currently, the validation of MODIS and Himawari-8 aerosol products mostly focuses on AOD, but the validation of their fine mode aerosol data is limited. In this paper, 22 AERONET sites in Asia from 2015 to 2016 were selected to validate the MODIS and the
