Journal ArticleDOI

Oral microbiome profiles: 16S rRNA pyrosequencing and microarray assay comparison.

TL;DR: Both methods are currently suitable for high-throughput epidemiologic investigations relating identified and more common oral microbial taxa to disease risk; yet, pyrosequencing may provide a broader spectrum of taxa identification, a distinct sequence-read record, and greater detection sensitivity.
Journal ArticleDOI

A taxonomic signature of obesity in a large study of American adults

TL;DR: A strong and consistent taxonomic signature of obesity is identified and identification of microbes associated with obesity can potentially provide targets for obesity prevention and treatment.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ambient particulate matter air pollution exposure and mortality in the NIH-AARP diet and health cohort

TL;DR: Long-term exposure to PM2.5 air pollution was associated with an increased risk of total and CVD mortality, providing an independent test of the PM21.5–mortality relationship in a new large U.S. prospective cohort experiencing lower post-2000 PM3.5 exposure levels.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prediagnostic Total and High-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol and Risk of Cancer

TL;DR: The findings suggest that prior observations regarding serum total cholesterol and cancer are largely explained by reverse causation, although chance and reverse causation may explain some of the inverse HDL associations.
