Development and validation of a blood biomarker score for predicting mortality risk in the general population
TL;DR: Sex-specific blood biomarker scores for predicting all-cause and cause-specific mortality in the general population are established and hold the potential to identify high-risk individuals and improve targeted prevention of premature death.

Reply to Bui et al.: Contribution of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease as a Mediator for the Association Between Air Pollution and Lung Cancer
TL;DR: Huang et al. as mentioned in this paper conducted a formal mediation analysis and found COPD only mediated 7.9-19.9% of the associations between air pollution and incident lung cancer, which is surprising given previous data suggesting that COPD is a common and independent risk factor for newly diagnosed lung cancer.

TL;DR: Wang et al. as discussed by the authors conducted a genome-wide gene-smoking interaction study in Chinese populations, and identified three novel loci with significant or suggestive gene smoking interaction, which provided new insights into the biological mechanisms underlying NSCLC risk.

TL;DR: In this article , a two-stage strategy was adopted: first, a GWAS to identify variants associated with early-onset nonsmall-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) risk using 2556 cases (age ≥ 50 years) and 13,327 controls by logistic regression model.
