Note: From the authors: “Following publication of the original article, the authors reported a typographic error in scientific notation in the number of reads, the text should read as: “Approximately 7.3 × 108 reads associated with microorganisms were generated after high quality trimming from PMA (21 samples) and non-PMA treated (21 samples) samples. All metagenomics reads were normalized across all samples, which yielded 3.1 × 108 in total, and 7.4 × 106 assigned to each sample, without affecting the taxonomic diversity.” The authors regret these errors and the inconvenience caused.” The original article was published on 23 Nov 2018 and appeared in SPACELINE Current Awareness List #826, 30 Nov 2018. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/

Mortality of US astronauts: Comparisons with professional athletes.

Note: From the abstract: “Studies of mortality among US astronauts are complicated by the healthy worker effect, which predicts lower mortality for astronauts than the general population based solely on the ability to become and remain an astronaut. We attempt to evaluate astronaut mortality risk while accounting for the healthy worker effect.”
