The Impact of Caffeine and Coffee on Human Health
The purpose of this Special Issue is to provide a thorough and up-to-date presentation of research investigating the impact of coffee and/or caffeine intake on various health outcomes. We welcome the submission of original research articles and/or systematic Reviews/meta-analyses focusing on several aspects of coffee/caffeine intake in relation to human health. Areas of interest include, but are not limited to, the following topics: - Human clinical trials of coffee or caffeine use in relation to disease or intermediate phenotypes. - Epidemiological studies of habitual coffee or caffeine intake in relation to human health, among the general public, as well as, among special populations (i.e., children, pregnant women, diabetics, cancer patients, hypertensives, etc.) - Mechanisms of action of nutrients and other bioactive components of coffee/caffeine. - Studies integrating genetic or physiological markers of coffee/caffeine intake to investigations of coffee and health.

Causal Inference
A nontechnical guide to the basic ideas of modern causal inference, with illustrations from health, the economy, and public policy. Which of two antiviral drugs does the most to save people infected with Ebola virus? Does a daily glass of wine prolong or shorten life? Does winning the lottery make you more or less likely to go bankrupt? How do you identify genes that cause disease? Do unions raise wages? Do some antibiotics have lethal side effects? Does the Earned Income Tax Credit help people enter the workforce? Causal Inference provides a brief and nontechnical introduction to randomized experiments, propensity scores, natural experiments, instrumental variables, sensitivity analysis, and quasi-experimental devices. Ideas are illustrated with examples from medicine, epidemiology, economics and business, the social sciences, and public policy.
Obesity Epidemiology
During the past twenty years there has been a dramatic increase in obesity in the United States. An estimated thirty percent of adults in the US are obese; in 1980, only fifteen percent were. The issue is gaining greater attention with the CDC and with the public health world in general. This book will offer practical information about the methodology of epidemiologic studies of obesity, suitable for graduate students and researchers in epidemiology, and public health practitioners with an interest in the issue. The book will be structured in four main sections, with the majority of chapters authored by Dr. Hu, and some authored by specialists in specific areas. The first section will consid...

Advances in Food and Nutrition Research
Advances in Food and Nutrition Research provides updated knowledge about nutrients in foods and how to avoid their deficiency, especially for those essential nutrients that should be present in the diet to reduce disease risk and optimise health. The series provides the latest advances on the identification and characterisation of emerging bioactive compounds with putative health benefits, as well as up-to-date information on food science, including raw materials, production, processing, distribution and consumption, always having in mind its nutritional benefits and health effects. Contains contributions that have been carefully selected based on their vast experience and expertise on the subject Includes updated, in-depth, and critical discussions of available information, giving the reader a unique opportunity to learn Encompasses a broad view of the topics at hand
Caffeine, Genetic Variation and Risk of Myocardial Infarction
Epidemiological studies examining the association between coffee and myocardial infarction (MI) remain inconclusive. Coffee is a major source of caffeine and has been implicated in the development of cardiovascular diseases. Caffeine is metabolized by cytochrome P450 (CYP)1A2, and the physiological effects of caffeine are mediated through blockade of adenosine receptors. A genetic polymorphism in CYP1A2 ( -163C>A) decreases enzyme inducibility resulting in slow caffeine metabolism, and a polymorphism in ADORA2A (1083C>T) is associated with caffeine-induced anxiety. The overall objective of this research was to determine whether genetic differences in caffeine metabolism and sensitivity modif...
Realizing the Promise of Precision Medicine
Realizing the Promise of Precision Medicine: The Role of Patient Data, Mobile Technology, and Consumer Engagement explains the potential of personalized medicine and the value of those approaches in making that potential a reality. The book helps transform one-size-fits-all healthcare into a system that focuses on individual needs and the unique needs of each family member, discussing topics such as U.S. sponsored precision medicine initiative, genomics, the role of electronic health records and mobile medicine, patient engagement and empowerment, health information exchange and patient data protection. In addition, the book discusses the barriers and limitations of precision medicine and ho...
為什麼優秀的人都有科學腦？
◎達到市占率百分之一的目標，有那麼容易嗎？ ◎刺激群體前進的「鯰魚效應」竟然是謠傳？ ◎「挑戰者號」爆炸事故源於NASA組織的侷限與僵化？ ◎為什麼大多數人慣用右手？ ◎太乾淨的環境反而容易激發氣喘病？ 這些似是而非、人們習焉而不察的概念，普遍存在生活中、職場上，其實都與科學脫不了關係。但世人普遍認為，科學是生硬的大道理，是專家學者的事，與自我啟發、日常生活，甚至企業管理毫無關係。但是—— 微軟創辦人比爾．蓋茲的推薦書單中，有為數不少的科學書； 臉書創辦人馬克．祖克柏以愛讀科...
