Human liver epigenetic alterations in non-alcoholic steatohepatitis are related to insulin action

Both genetic and lifestyle factors contribute to the risk of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). Additionally, epigenetic modifications may also play a key role in the pathogenesis of NASH. We therefore investigated liver DNA methylation, as a marker for epigenetic alterations, in individuals with simple steatosis and NASH, and further tested if these alterations were associated with clinical ph

Associations of parental age with health and social factors in adult offspring. Methodological pitfalls and possibilities

Parental age is increasing rapidly in many countries. Analysis of this potentially important influence on offspring well-being is hampered by strong secular trends and socioeconomic patterning and by a shortage of follow-up data for adult offspring. We used Swedish national data on up to 3,653,938 offspring to consider the associations of parental age with a suite of outcomes in adult offspring, c

Third cumulant for multivariate aggregate claim models

The third cumulant for the aggregated multivariate claims is considered. A formula is presented for the general case when the aggregating variable is independent of the multivariate claims. Two important special cases are considered. In the first one, multivariate skewed normal claims are considered and aggregated by a Poisson variable. The second case is dealing with multivariate asymmetric gener
