- 13 Dec 2017 - 
TL;DR: These global influenza-associated respiratory mortality estimates are higher than previously reported, suggesting that previous estimates might have underestimated disease burden.
Journal ArticleDOI

The APOA5 locus is a strong determinant of plasma triglyceride concentrations across ethnic groups in Singapore

TL;DR: Data suggest that APOA5 plays a role in the ethnic differences observed for plasma TG and HDL cholesterol concentrations for Chinese and Malays, and major associations between the minor alleles at each of four common polymorphisms and higher plasma triglycerides across ethnic groups.
Journal Article
