Since no single Korean dataset includes information on both sons' and their fathers' adult earnings, this study follows the two-sample approach previously applied in Korea by Ueda (J Asian Econ 1 22, 2013), whose estimated intergenerational earnings elasticity is 0.22, and extends the analysis by using fathers' earnings from a more approximal cohort.
Of course, the skeleton you see doesn't actually belong to the person being scanned, but instead is taken from a Korean dataset.
The 81 arrays in the Korean dataset were from patients at Seoul National University College of Medicine.
For the Korean dataset, SSJ, D-YN, and WH designed and supervised the microarray experiments, and D-YN and WH collected the tumor tissue samples.
Five microarray datasets were used in this study (three of which have appeared in previously published papers): NKI dataset [ 8, 9], Sørlie dataset [ 3], Zhao/Langerød dataset [ 10], Korean dataset and Norway/Stanford dataset.
The EQ-5D has been validated for use in Korea [ 30], however, as no Korean value datasets are available, the UK valuation set is used to derive utility values.
To establish the Korean normative dataset of peripapillary RNFL thickness for each decade of age, the mean and standard deviation of RNFL thickness were calculated for each scanned sector.
Tumor samples were taken from three different populations and the distributions of the samples' clinical characteristics in the Norway/Stanford, Korean, and Zhao/Langerød datasets are not equal, however, so we followed the procedure described below and divided each of the three datasets and subsequently pooled groups to make the training dataset and the testing dataset.
Both the Korean and Japanese datasets allowed studying these indicators longitudinally (Figures 2 and 3, respectively).
The random splits of the Norway/Stanford, Korean, and Zhao/Langerød datasets were done once.
