A distribution dependence study on the impacts of health rights’ accessibility on the overwork of migrant workers in China using quantile-on-quantile method by Shengzhi Zhang, Shengzhi Zhang, Yanlong Deng, Yu Zhang

“…Investigating the formation mechanisms and generational variations in migrant workers’ overwork through the lens of health rights accessibility enriches theoretical explanations of overwork’s causes while offering actionable strategies for mitigation.MethodsBased on the China Migrants Dynamic Survey (CMDS), this study empirically tests the impact of health right’s accessibility on migrant workers’ overwork and its intergenerational differences using the quantile-on-quantile regression (QQR) and composition test method.ResultsHealth rights’ accessibility significantly reduces migrant workers’ overwork, with a 1-unit improvement correlating with a 4.22% decline in overwork rate and 2.36-h weekly reduction in overwork hours. …”

Genetic markers of obesity risk: stronger associations with body composition in overweight compared to normal-weight children. by Andreas Beyerlein, Rüdiger von Kries, Andrew R Ness, Ken K Ong

“…We examined whether there are differential effect sizes depending on children's body composition.<h4>Methods</h4>We analysed data of n = 4,837 children recorded in the Avon Longitudinal Study of Parents and Children (ALSPAC), applying quantile regression with sex- and age-specific standard deviation scores (SDS) of body mass index (BMI) or with body fat mass index and fat-free mass index at 9 years as outcome variables and an "obesity-risk-allele score" based on eight genetic variants known to be associated with childhood BMI as the explanatory variable.…”
