Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Consensus molecular subtypes (CMS1‐4) have been identified to study colorectal cancer heterogeneity and serve as potential biomarkers. In this study, we developed and evaluated NanoCMSer, a NanoString‐based classifier using 55 genes, optimized for FF and FFPE to facilitate the clinical evaluation of CMS subtyping.

A Method for Estimating the Total Loss of Healthy Life Years: Applications and Comparisons in UK and Scotland [PDF]
arXiv, 2012 We propose a method of estimating the Total Loss of Healthy Life Years based on the first exit time theory for a stochastic process, the resulting Health State Function and the Deterioration Function estimated as the curvature of the health state function. We have done many applications in UK and Scotland and Sweden supporting our theory.

arXiv, 2013 An extrapolation of the genetic complexity of organisms to earlier times suggests that life began before the Earth was formed. Life may have started from systems with single heritable elements that are functionally equivalent to a nucleotide. The genetic complexity, roughly measured by the number of non-redundant functional nucleotides, is expected to ...

Immigration and improvements in American life expectancy
SSM: Population Health, 2021 Despite the immigrant mortality advantage and the increasing share of the population born abroad, relatively little is known about how immigration has impacted trends in US life expectancy.

Obesity and Trends in Life Expectancy
Journal of Obesity, 2012 Background. Increasing levels of obesity over recent decades have been expected to lead to an epidemic of diabetes and a subsequent reduction in life expectancy, but instead all-cause and cardiovascular-specific mortality rates have decreased steadily in

Ambient PM2.5 Reduces Global and Regional Life Expectancy
Environmental Science and Technology Letters, 2018 Exposure to ambient fine particulate matter (PM2.5) air pollution is a major risk for premature death. Here, we systematically quantify the global impact of PM2.5 on life expectancy.

Inequalities in US Life Expectancy by Area Unemployment Level, 1990–2010
Scientifica, 2016 This study examined the association between unemployment and life expectancy in the United States during 1990–2010. Census-based unemployment rates were linked to US county-level mortality data.
