Causal inference in health and disease: a review of the principles and applications of Mendelian randomization by Lovegrove, CE, Howles, SA, Furniss, D, Holmes, MV

“…Conventional observational epidemiological studies are subject to bias from a range of sources; MR analyses can offer an advantage in that they are less prone to bias as they use genetic variants inherited at conception as “instrumental variables”, which are proxies of an exposure. However, as with all research tools, MR studies must be carefully designed to yield valuable insights into causal relationships between exposures and outcomes, and to avoid biased or misleading results that undermine the validity of the causal inferences drawn from the study. …”

Overcoming endurance issue : UAV-enabled communications with proactive caching by Xu, Xiaoli, Zeng, Yong, Guan, Yong Liang, Zhang, Rui

“…Specifically, we focus on content-centric communication systems, where a UAV is dispatched to serve a group of ground nodes (GNs) with random and asynchronous requests for files drawn from a given set. With the proposed scheme, at the beginning of each operation period, the UAV pro-actively transmits the files to a subset of selected GNs that cooperatively cache all the files. …”
