Plasma metabolomic profiles associated with mortality and longevity in a prospective analysis of 13,512 individuals
1. Metabolome-wide association analysis to assess the association between individual metabolite and mortality/longevity;
2. Metaboltie set enrichment analysis (MSEA) to examine the association between knowledge-based metabolite groups and mortality/longevity;
3. Weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) to examine the association between metabolite modules, derived using a data-driven approach, and mortality/longevity;
4. Elastic net regression to develop a multi-profile score summarizing the plasma metabolomic profile associated with all-cause mortality.
