I never questions the principle of the curves, at all, but most of these studies have some sampling bias. I'm glad it's holding up!What I mean to question is how the study was done vs. the population you are trying to learn about. Do women have the same curves? Children? How about Hispanics vs. Latvians? Do their F-M curves look the same? Without testing I have no idea. :)
This is the sort of thing that isn't usually considered on the first studies, but we gain more knowledge of as time progresses. The first studies are usually done with whoever is at hand, and often in colleges that's young men and women of whatever the predominant genetic stock is there, so projecting their response to drugs, or hearing, onto the general population may or may not be accurate.
Best,
Erik
