Weird News : Most relationships among variables in nature are nonlinear, frequently taking the form of a J curve. The figure below illustrates this type of curve.

The vertical axis measures a certain disease marker – e.g., a marker of systemic inflammation, such as levels of circulating tumor necrosis factor (TNF). This is just one of many measurement schemes that may lead to a J curve.
