Why predicted injury risk is quietly dragging down football transfer values

Researchers modelled future injury risk in male professional footballers across seven European leagues and linked this risk to market valuation using a two-stage econometric approach. A higher predicted probability of severe or recurrent injury was associated with a substantial reduction in players’ market value.

Lifetime heavy drinking sharply raises colorectal cancer risk, major US study finds

Lifetime alcohol intake, not just recent drinking, is associated with colorectal cancer risk in older adults followed in the PLCO Cancer Screening Trial. Heavy and consistent long-term drinking was linked to higher colorectal cancer risk, while alcohol cessation was associated with lower odds of early, nonadvanced adenomas.

Four-biomarker blood panel enhances the detection of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma

A four-biomarker blood panel of aminopeptidase N (ANPEP), polymeric immunoglobulin receptor (PIGR), CA19-9, and thrombospondin-2 (THBS2) enhanced the detection of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) compared to measuring CA19-9 levels alone.

Redefining early detection for type 1 diabetes

Researchers have identified a protein pattern that, already at birth, looks markedly different in those who later go on to develop type 1 diabetes. The findings show that a combination of several factors during pregnancy increases the risk of the child later developing the disease. The study is published in Nature Communications and was led by researchers at Linköping University, Sweden, and the University of Florida, USA.
