Great Michael. Maybe I overlooked, but shouldn't it be 11.4 - 11.9 (vs your 12.6) in your reproduced chart for the 1-5 and 5-25 percentiles in Tonelli 2019?

Thanks Albedo for your critical eye!

In Table 1 from that paper, they listed the minimum values for each percentile, and 12.6 is the beginning of the 25-50% percentile. That means that the optimal range is from the minimum value in percentile 1 (11.4) to just before the 25th percentile (12.59)...

No worries, albedo, you almost got me! Initially, I thought I made a mistake, but when I took another look at the paper, not this time :) 

Ha, eventually someone will get me, which is ok, everyone misspeaks/makes mistakes eventually...

Hello Michael, I am pretty sure you know already but in case it looks like this paper might be a great addition for your understanding of results and interpretation:

 

Foy, B.H., Petherbridge, R., Roth, M.T. et al. Haematological setpoints are a stable and patient-specific deep phenotype. Nature (2024). https://doi.org/10.1...586-024-08264-5

Hi albedo, yes, I saw that via Eric's X, too!

Ha, I've been saying this since 2015-the field is finally catching up...
