Life history theory - which considers the influence of environmental factors that occur over the course of an organism's life in determining patterns of development and behavior - has been used to provide insight into the cause and interpre...

Body mass index (BMI) is commonly used as a proxy for adiposity in epidemiological and public health studies. However, BMI may suffer from issues of misreporting and, because it fluctuates over the life course, its association with morbidit...
Race/ethnicity, maternal educational attainment, and infant mortality in the United States [0.03%]

Samuel H Fishman et al.
This study examines patterns of and explanations for racial/ethnic-education disparities in infant mortality in the United States. Using linked birth and death data (2007-2010), we find that while education-specific infant mortality rates a...
Obesity-mortality link over the life course: the contribution of population compositional changes [0.03%]
体重一生变化与死亡率的关系：人口结构变化的影响
Hui Zheng,Paola Echave,Neil Mehta

A key uncertainty in the obesity-mortality association continues to be how this association changes over the life course. Prior studies tend to rely on cross-sectional design with static weight status taken at the time of the survey. This s...
Does Salivary Telomere Length Explain Race/Ethnic Differences in Aging? [0.03%]
唾液腺端粒长度能解释不同种族/族群间的衰老差异吗？
Lauren Brown,Catherine García,Jennifer Ailshire
Lauren Brown
Telomere length (TL) is a biomarker that can be used to characterize variability in aging and may explain race/ethnic differences in aging. Yet, it remains unclear if TL is related to aging-associated health risks in multi-ethnic population...
