We characterized patterns of diabetes risk progression using #SequenceAnalysis and found evidence of 9 patterns including stable normoglycemia, 5 patterns of impaired fasting glucose that did not progress to diabetes, and 3 patterns of diabetes with onset at younger, middle, and older ages.

I’m happy to share that our sequence analysis “didactic” paper is now published!
I think this method is powerful, flexible and solves the persistent challenge of characterizing variables that unfold over time (& produces great graphics).
Applied examples below.

#SequenceAnalysis is often used to create a typology of trajectories. This typology is then used in regressions to study the association between trajectories and covariates.
By doing so, sampling uncertainty, which affects both the typology and the regressions, is ignored.

High sequence diversity is not automatically function.
