Recent advancements in the Internet of Things (IoT) and the Web of Things (WoT) accompany a smart life where real world objects, including sensing devices, are interconnected with each other.The Web representation of smart objects empowers innovative applications and Arm and Leg Protection services for various domains.To accelerate this approach, W
Large numbers of expression quantitative trait loci (eQTLs) have recently been identified in humans, and many of these regulatory variants have large allele frequency differences between populations.Here, we conducted genome-wide scans of selection to identify adaptive eQTLs (i.e., eQTLs with large population branch statistics).We then tested if ti
BackgroundWe previously developed a prediction score for MRI-quantified abdominal visceral adipose tissue (VAT) based on concurrent measurements of height, body mass index (BMI), and nine blood biomarkers, for optimal performance in five racial/ethnic groups.Here we evaluated the VAT score for prediction of future VAT and examined if enhancement wi
