"I have not (yet) found anything that identifies other than a "spokesperson" for the researchers"

Dr James Lightwood, of the University of California at San Francisco, led the Circulation study that pooled together 13 separate analyses.

"A "magazine" is named in reports I've seen, but no issue, date, or other clear citation from which a peer-review trail could be tracked is given."

The studies appear in two leading journals - Circulation and the Journal of the American College of Cardiology.
