Socioeconomic disparity in mortality and the burden of cardiovascular disease: analysis of the Prospective Urban Rural Epidemiology (PURE)-China cohort study. Lancet Public Health 2023; 8:e968-e977. [PMID: 38000890 DOI: 10.1016/s2468-2667(23)00244-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/29/2023] [Revised: 09/25/2023] [Accepted: 10/02/2023] [Indexed: 11/26/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Although socioeconomic inequality in cardiovascular health has long been a public health focus, the differences in cardiovascular-disease burden and mortality between people with different socioeconomic statuses has yet to be adequately addressed. We aimed to assess the effects of socioeconomic status, measured via three socioeconomic-status indicators (ie, education, occupation, and household wealth and a composite socioeconomic-status disparity index, on mortality and cardiovascular-disease burden (ie, incidence, mortality, and admission to hospital) in China. METHODS For this analysis, we used data from the Prospective Urban Rural Epidemiology (PURE)-China cohort study, which enrolled adults aged 35-70 years from 115 urban and rural areas in 12 provinces in China between Jan 1, 2005, and Dec 31, 2009. Final follow-up was on Aug 30, 2021. Indicators of socioeconomic status were education, occupation, and household wealth; these individual indicators were also used to create an integrated socioeconomic-status index via latent class analysis. Standard questionnaires administered by trained researchers were used to obtain baseline data and were supplemeted by physical measurements. The primary outcomes were all-cause mortality, cardiovascular-disease mortality, non-cardiovascular-disease mortality, major cardiovascular disease, and cardiovascular-disease admission to hospital. Hazard ratios (HRs) and average marginal effects were used to assess the association between the primary outcomes and socioeconomic status. FINDINGS Of 47 931 participants enrolled in the PURE-China study, 47 278 (98·6%) had complete information on sex and follow-up. After excluding 1189 (2·5%) participants with missing data on education, household wealth, and occupation at baseline, 46 089 participants were included in this analysis. Median follow-up was 11·9 years (IQR 9·5-12·6); 26 860 (58·3%) of 46 089 participants were female and 19 229 (41·7%) were male. Having no or primary education, unskilled occupation, or being in the lowest third of household wealth was associated with a higher risk of all-cause mortality, cardiovascular-disease mortality, non-cardiovascular-disease mortality, major cardiovascular disease, and cardiovascular-disease admission to hospital compared with having higher education, a professional or managerial occupation, or more household wealth. After adjustment for confounders, people categorised as having low integrated socioeconomic status based on the index had a higher risk of all-cause mortality (HR 1·65 [95% CI 1·42-1·92]), cardiovascular-disease mortality (2·19 [1·68-2·85]), non-cardiovascular disease mortality (1·43 [1·18-1·72]), major cardiovascular disease (1·43 [1·27-1·61]) and cardiovascular-disease admission to hospital (1·14 [1·01-1·28]) compared with people categorised as having high integrated socioeconomic status. INTERPRETATION Socioeconomic-status inequalities in mortality and cardiovascular-disease outcomes exist in China. Targeted policies of equal health-care resource allocation should be promoted to equitably benefit people with fewer years of education and less household wealth.

ESC Heart Fail 2023; 10:3398-3409. [PMID: 37688465 PMCID: PMC10682860 DOI: 10.1002/ehf2.14521] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/16/2023] [Revised: 07/09/2023] [Accepted: 08/18/2023] [Indexed: 09/11/2023] Open
Abstract
AIMS Heart failure (HF) is a common cause of morbidity and mortality, related to a broad range of sociodemographic, lifestyle, cardiometabolic, and comorbidity risk factors, which may differ according to the presence of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). We assessed the association between incident HF with baseline status across these domains, overall and separated according to ASCVD status. METHODS AND RESULTS We included 5758 participants from the Baker Biobank cohort without HF at baseline enrolled between January 2000 and December 2011. The primary endpoint was incident HF, defined as hospital admission or HF-related death, determined through linkage with state-wide administrative databases (median follow-up 12.2 years). Regression models were fitted adjusted for sociodemographic variables, alcohol intake, smoking status, measures of adiposity, cardiometabolic profile measures, and individual comorbidities. During 65 987 person-years (median age 59 years, 38% women), incident HF occurred among 784 participants (13.6%) overall. Rates of incident HF were higher among patients with ASCVD (624/1929, 32.4%) compared with those without ASCVD (160/3829, 4.2%). Incident HF was associated with age, socio-economic status, alcohol intake, smoking status, body mass index (BMI), waist circumference, waist-hip ratio, systolic blood pressure (SBP), and low- and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C and HDL-C), with non-linear relationships observed for age, alcohol intake, BMI, waist circumference, waist-hip ratio, SBP, LDL-C, and HDL-C. Risk factors for incident HF were largely consistent regardless of ASCVD status, although diabetes status had a greater association with incident HF among patients without ASCVD. CONCLUSIONS Incident HF is associated with a broad range of baseline sociodemographic, lifestyle, cardiometabolic, and comorbidity factors, which are mostly consistent regardless of ASCVD status. These data could be useful in efforts towards developing risk prediction models that can be used in patients with ASCVD.

The prevalence of mpox and its association with sexual behavior among Chinese men who have sex with men in early August 2023. J Med Virol 2023; 95:e29320. [PMID: 38102917 DOI: 10.1002/jmv.29320] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/12/2023] [Revised: 10/12/2023] [Accepted: 12/04/2023] [Indexed: 12/17/2023]
Abstract
Study investigating mpox infection and its association with sexual behavior among men who have sex with men (MSM) in China was lacking. This observational survey aimed to provide evidence on detail characteristics of mpox cases and sexual behavior, then analyze their relationship among MSM in China to help formulate prevention and control policies. An anonymous cross-sectional study was conducted in 27 MSM social organizations across 21 provinces, municipalities, and autonomous regions from July 31 to August 4, 2023. A safe sexual behavior index was constructed based on three risky sexual behaviors in the last month, including condomless anal intercourse, commercial sex and group sex. High safe sexual behavior indicated that the participant engaged in none of the three, and low safe sexual behavior indicated that they engaged in all three behaviors; otherwise, moderate safe sexual behavior was indicated. Among 7538 MSM, the prevalence of mpox was 0.73% (55/7538). The proportion of high safe sexual behavior was 79.64% (6003/7538). The crude prevalence of mpox was lower in the high safe sexual behavior group (0.35%, 21/6003), compared with the low (12.12%, 8/66) and moderate safe (1.78%, 26/1469) sexual behavior group. In the multivariable-adjusted analysis, after adjusting for all covariates, compared with low safe sexual behavior group, moderate safe sexual behavior group (aOR = 0.21; 95% CI = 0.08, 0.54) and high safe sexual behavior group (aOR = 0.04; 95% CI = 0.02, 0.12) both had lower risk of mpox. Of three sexual behaviors, MSM who reported no commercial sex had the lowest risk of mpox (aOR = 0.23; 95% CI = 0.13, 0.41), compared with those who reported commercial sex in the last month. The other two safe sexual behaviors both were associated with lower risk of mpox (no group sex vs. group sex: aOR = 0.15; 95% CI = 0.08, 0.28; no condomless anal intercourse vs. condomless anal intercourse: aOR = 0.23; 95% CI = 0.13, 0.41). The prevalence of mpox virus infection was nearly 1% among MSM in China. Strengthening mpox surveillance, emphasizing safe sexual behavior in health education are essential for the control of mpox among MSM in China.

Cardiac and mortality outcome differences between methadone, buprenorphine and naltrexone prescriptions in patients with an opioid use disorder. J Clin Psychol 2023; 79:2869-2883. [PMID: 37584532 DOI: 10.1002/jclp.23582] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/04/2023] [Revised: 07/01/2023] [Accepted: 08/08/2023] [Indexed: 08/17/2023]
Abstract
IMPORTANCE More than 109,000 Americans died of drug overdose in 2022, with 81,231 overdose deaths involving opioids. Methadone, buprenorphine and naltrexone are the most widely used medications for opioid use disorders (MOUD) and the most effective intervention for preventing overdose deaths. However, there is a concern that methadone results in long QT syndrome, which increases the risk for fatal cardiac arrythmias. Currently few studies have systematically evaluated both the short-term and long-term differences in cardiac and mortality outcomes between MOUD. OBJECTIVES To compare the risks of cardiac arrythmias, long QT syndrome and overall mortality between patients with opioid use disorders (OUD) who were prescribed methadone, buprenorphine or naltrexone. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS Retrospective cohort study based on a multicenter and nationwide database of electronic health records (EHRs) in the United States. The study population was comprised of 144,141 patients who had medical encounters for OUD in 2016-2022, were prescribed MOUD within 1 month following a medical encounter for OUD diagnosis and had no diagnosis of cardiac arrythmias or long QT syndrome before any MOUD prescription. The study population was divided into three cohorts: (1) Methadone cohort (n = 40,938)-who were only prescribed methadone. (2) Buprenorphine cohort (n = 80,055)-who were only prescribed buprenorphine. (3) Naltrexone cohort (n = 5,738)-who were only prescribed naltrexone. EXPOSURES methadone, buprenorphine, or naltrexone. MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES Cardiac arrythmias, long QT syndrome, and death. Hazard ratio (HR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) of outcomes at six different follow-up time frames (1-month, 3-month, 6-month, 1-year, 3-year, and 5-year) by comparing propensity-score matched cohorts using Kaplan-Meier survival analysis. RESULTS Patients with OUD who were prescribed methadone had significantly higher risks of cardiac arrhythmias, long QT syndrome and death compared with propensity-score matched patients with OUD who were prescribed buprenorphine or naltrexone. For the 1-month follow-up, the overall risk for cardiac arrythmias was 1.03% in the Methadone cohort, higher than the 0.87% in the matched Buprenorphine cohort (HR: 1.20, 95% CI: 1.04-1.39); The overall risk for long QT syndrome was 0.35% in the Methadone cohort, higher than the 0.15% in the matched Buprenorphine cohort (HR: 2.40, 95% CI: 1.75-3.28); The overall mortality was 0.59% in the Methadone cohort, higher than the 0.41% in the matched Buprenorphine cohort (HR: 1.48, 95% CI: 1.21-1.81). The increased risk persisted for 5 years: cardiac arrhythmias (HR: 1.31, 95% CI: 1.23-1.38), long QT syndrome (HR: 3.14, 95% CI: 2.76-3.58), death (HR: 1.50, 95% CI: 1.41-1.59). CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE Methadone was associated with a significantly higher risk for cardiac and mortality outcomes than buprenorphine and naltrexone. These findings are relevant to the development of guidelines for medication selection when initiating MOUD treatment and inform future medication development for OUD that minimizes risks while maximizing benefits.

Abstract
Objective: To identify lifestyle patterns in emerging adults and examine the association of lifestyle patterns with overweight and depression. Methods: Data was from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey between 2011 and 2018. A latent class analysis (LCA) was conducted with 2,268 US emerging adults based on sedentary behavior, moderate-to-vigorous physical activity, diet, sleep, alcohol drinking, and cigarette smoking. The associations of lifestyle groups with overweight and depression were examined by logistic regression and were further stratified by employment status. Results: The LCA results favored a four-class solution: "unhealthy but non-substance use" (59%), "healthy but sleepless and drinking" (12%), "unhealthy lifestyle" (15%), and "healthy but sedentary" group (14%). Compared to the "unhealthy lifestyle" group, participants in the "unhealthy but non-substance use" (coef. = -1.44, SE = 0.27; OR = 0.40, 95% CI [0.26, 0.61]), "healthy but sleepless and drinking" (coef. = -1.49, SE = 0.35; OR = 0.38, 95% CI [0.20, 0.72]), and "healthy but sedentary" (coef. = -1.97, SE = 0.34; OR = 0.29, 95% CI [0.14, 0.57]) groups had lower depression severity and reported fewer depressive symptoms. Moreover, lifestyle groups and health outcomes showed different relationships among employed and unemployed participants. Conclusion: This study found that the combinations of lifestyle behaviors had synergistic effects on mental health, and such effects differed by employment status.

Abstract
Introduction This study explored the relationship between environmental polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and identified systemic inflammation as a mediator of the increased risk of COPD from PAHs. Methods Data were obtained from 60,936 middle-aged and older Americans recruited in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2005-2016. Environmental PAHs were measured in terms of urinary concentrations of PAHs metabolites (NAP: 1-hydroxynaphthalene, FLU: 2-hydroxyfluorene, PA: 1-hydroxyphenanthrene, and PYR: 1-hydroxypyrene). We used multifactor logical analysis to figure out the link between PAHs and COPD, and the non-linear relationship was examined using Restricted cubic spline. Spearman correlation analysis was utilized to analyze the connection between PAHs and systemic immune-inflammation index (SII). Results The results showed that the COPD population had higher NAP (3.550 vs. 3.282, p < 0.001), FLU (2.501 vs. 2.307, p < 0.001), PA (2.155 vs. 2.082, p = 0.005), and PYR (2.013 vs. 1.959, p = 0.008) levels than non-COPD population. In unadjusted logistics analysis, the risk of COPD with log NAP was higher [OR = 1.461, 95% CI (1.258-1.698), p < 0.001]. Upon taking into account, confounders like sex, age, race, and log NAP still increased a possible COPD risk [OR = 1.429, 95% CI (1.224-1.669), p < 0.001]. Similarly, FLU, PA, and PYR significantly increased the risk of COPD (all OR > 1, p < 0.05), both unadjusted and adjusted. Furthermore, Restricted cubic spline demonstrated a strong link between PAHs levels and COPD risk (p < 0.05). Additionally, a Spearman correlation analysis revealed a favorable association between log FLU and log SII (R = 0.43, p = 0.006), while NAP, PA, and PYR levels were not associated with log SII (all p > 0.05). Ultimately, the mediating effect analysis revealed a mediating effect capacity of 5.34% for the SII-mediated association between FLU and COPD. Conclusion The findings suggest that the risk of COPD is significantly increased when environmental PAHs exposure is at high levels, and that systemic inflammation may be involved in the process.

Abstract
Objective To explore the relationship between the duration of TV screen exposure and mental illnesses in middle-aged and older adults. Methods The study was based on a cohort of 500 000 participants from UK Biobank. A prospective cohort of participants with TV screen exposure was established based on the exposure factor of the participants' daily TV watching time. The outcome was defined as psychological problem-related outcomes. The follow-up period extended from the time of baseline assessment of the participants to December 31, 2019. Cox proportional hazard model was used to calculate the hazard ratio (HR) of suicide attempts and mental illnesses in the population covered by the study. Results A total of 410 946 participants were followed up for an average of 10.8 years and 33 071 of them experienced an outcome events. Compared with the group of participants who had 0-1 h of daily TV time, the group of participants who watched TV for more than 5 h per day had an HR of 1.37 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.31-1.44). In stratified analysis, we found that, compared with individuals aged 45 years and over, individuals who were 38-44 years old were at a higher risk of developing mental illness when they watched TV for long periods of time (>5 h HR 1.83, 95% CI: 1.55-2.15). Long periods of outdoor activities reduced the risk of mental illness for individuals who watched TV for long periods of time (>5 h HR 1.26, 95% CI: 1.16-1.37). Having less than 5 hours of sleep increased the mental health risks of individuals who watched TV for long periods of time (>5 h HR 1.56, 95% CI: 1.34-1.81) and when sleep duration increased, TV watching showed decreased impact on mental health risks (>5 h HR dropped from 1.56 to 1.19). Conclusion Our findings suggest that TV viewing for long periods of time increases the risk of mental illness. Increaseing outdoor activity time and sleep time reduces the negative impact of watching TV on mental health.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to analyse trends in the prevalence and economic burden of hypertension and its socioeconomic disparities in rural southwestern China. DESIGN Two repeated cross-sectional studies were conducted to collect interview and health examination data among individuals aged ≥35 years in rural Yunnan Province, China. SETTING Three rural areas of Yunnan, China. PARTICIPANTS We invited 8187 consenting participants in 2010-2011 and 7572 consenting participants in 2020-2021 to undergo interviews and health examinations. RESULTS The standardised prevalence of hypertension significantly increased from 26.1% in 2011 to 40.4% in 2021 (p<0.01), and the per capita direct, indirect and disease economic burdens increased from US$1323, US$46 and US$1369 to US$2196, US$49 and US$2244, respectively. In addition to the indirect economic burden, the direct and disease economic burdens increased significantly. The prevalence of hypertension was higher in illiterate population, among participants with low annual household income per capita, and participants with good access to medical services than in their counterparts who had good education, high annual household income per capita and poor access to medical services (all p<0.05). Moreover, the prevalence of hypertension showed a downward trend with improvement in socioeconomic position (SEP) (p<0.05). The per capita direct and disease economic burdens increased most in participants with low SEP, but the per capita indirect economic burden increased most in participants with upper-middle SEP. CONCLUSIONS The prevalence and economic burden of hypertension have visibly accelerated in rural Yunnan Province over the 10 years studied, and socioeconomic disparities have been found in the prevalence and economic burden of hypertension. These findings highlight that socioeconomic differentials should be tailored to address the timing of effective interventions for hypertension prevention and control and reduce the economic burden of hypertension in rural southwestern China.

Abstract
Background There is a lack of evidence on whether combined lifestyle factors mediate the association between family income and all-cause mortality, as well as the joint relations between family income and lifestyle factors with mortality. Methods Using data on family income and lifestyle factors of participants in the US National Health Interview Survey 2016-2018, we performed multivariable logistic regression models to estimate the odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) for the association of all-cause mortality with said data. Results We included 73 729 participants with a mean age of 47.1 years (standard deviation (SD) = 18.0), 51% of whom were women and 65% of whom were non-Hispanic Whites. There were 2284 deaths documented. After multivariable adjustment, middle-income participants had an OR of 0.73 (95% CI = 0.61-0.88) for mortality, while high-income participants had an OR of 0.47 (95% CI = 0.37-0.60) compared with low-income participants. We found that lower all-cause mortality was related to higher lifestyle scores. Adults from high-income families with lifestyle scores of 3 and 4 had an OR for mortality of 0.44 (95% CI = 0.30-0.65) compared to those from low-income families and lifestyle scores of 0 or 1. When comparing those in highest vs lowest income groups in the mediation analysis, 9.8% (95% CI = 7.4-13.0) of the relation for all-cause mortality was mediated by lifestyles. Adults from high-income families with lifestyle scores of 3 or 4 had an OR of 0.23 (95% CI = 0.17-0.33) for mortality compared with those from low-income families and lifestyle scores of 0 or 1. Conclusions A lower risk of all-cause mortality was linked to higher family income and healthier lifestyles. Furthermore, lifestyle factors mediated a small proportion of the association between family income and mortality among US adults. Economic disparity in health may not be eliminated by changing only one's lifestyle. Therefore, besides promoting a healthy lifestyle, we should stress how family income inequality affects health outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The relation of social deprivation with single cardiometabolic disease (CMD) was widely investigated, whereas the association with cardiometabolic multi-morbidity (CMM), defined as experiencing more than two CMDs during the lifetime, is poorly understood. METHODS We analyzed 345,417 UK Biobank participants without any CMDs at recruitment to study the relation between social deprivation and four CMDs including type II diabetes (T2D), coronary artery disease (CAD), stroke and hypertension. Social deprivation was measured by Townsend deprivation index (TDI), and CMM was defined as occurrence of two or more of the above four diseases. Multivariable Cox models were performed to estimate hazard ratios (HRs) per one standard deviation (SD) change and in quartile (Q1-Q4, with Q1 as reference), as well as 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs). RESULTS During the follow up, 68,338 participants developed at least one CMD (median follow up of 13.2 years), 16,225 further developed CMM (median follow up of 13.4 years), and 18,876 ultimately died from all causes (median follow up of 13.4 years). Compared to Q1 of TDI (lowest deprivation), the multivariable adjusted HR (95%CIs) of Q4 (highest deprivation) among participants free of any CMDs was 1.23 (1.20 ~ 1.26) for developing one CMD, 1.42 (1.35 ~ 1.48) for developing CMM, and 1.34 (1.27 ~ 1.41) for all-cause mortality. Among participants with one CMD, the adjusted HR (95%CIs) of Q4 was 1.30 (1.27 ~ 1.33) for developing CMM and 1.34 (1.27 ~ 1.41) for all-cause mortality, with HR (95%CIs) = 1.11 (1.06 ~ 1.16) for T2D patients, 1.07 (1.03 ~ 1.11) for CAD patients, 1.07 (1.00 ~ 1.15) for stroke patients, and 1.24 (1.21 ~ 1.28) for hypertension patients. Among participants with CMM, TDI was also related to the risk of all-cause mortality (HR of Q4 = 1.35, 95%CIs 1.28 ~ 1.43). CONCLUSIONS We revealed that people living with high deprived conditions would suffer from higher hazard of CMD, CMM and all-cause mortality.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Individuals of low socioeconomic status (SES) often exhibit increased cardiovascular risk factors and a worse prognosis. We conducted this study to ascertain whether brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV), a straightforward and reliable measure of arterial stiffness, can hold prognostic value for people with low SES. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed a total of 1266 subjects (mean age 64.6 ± 11.6 years; 47.2% female) without documented cardiovascular disease who had undergone baPWV measurement. The subjects included 633 National Health Insurance Beneficiaries (NHIB) and 633 Medical Aid Beneficiaries (MAB), matched for major clinical features through a 1:1 propensity score matching method. Major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), such as death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, non-fatal ischemic stroke, coronary revascularization, and heart failure necessitating admission, were assessed during the clinical follow-up. RESULTS During a median follow-up period of 4.2 years (interquartile range, 2.2-5.7 years), there were 77 MACE cases (6.1%). In multivariable Cox regression analyses, baPWV was identified as a significant predictor of MACE in both groups, regardless of the use of three different baPWV criteria (median value, Asian consensus recommendation, and cut-off value obtained by receiver operating characteristic [ROC] curve analysis). In both groups, the baPWV value obtained using ROC curve analysis emerged as the best predictor of MACE. This predictive value was stronger in the NHIB group (hazard ratio, 5.80; 95% confidence interval, 2.30-14.65; p < 0.001) than in the MAB group (hazard ratio, 3.30; 95% confidence interval, 1.57-6.92; p = 0.002). CONCLUSIONS baPWV was associated with future MACE incidence in both NHIB and MAB groups. Since baPWV is simple and cost-effective to measure, it could be efficiently used as a risk stratification tool for individuals with low SES.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To investigate the associations of periodontitis with risk of all-cause and cause-specific mortality in a nationally representative sample of adults with chronic kidney disease (CKD) in the United States. METHODS This prospective cohort study included 4,271 individuals aged ≥30 years at baseline with CKD participants in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) during 1988-1994, 1999-2004, and 2009-2014. CKD was defined as an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) <60 ml/min/1.73m2 and/or urinary albumin/creatinine ratio (uACR) ≥30 mg/g. Multivariate cox proportional hazards regression models were used to estimate the hazard ratios (HRs) and 95 % confidence intervals (CIs) of all-cause and cause-specific mortality in participants with CKD according to periodontitis. The associations of the quartiles of mean clinical attachment loss (CAL) and mean periodontal probing depth (PPD) levels with mortality were examined using the first quartile as the reference group. RESULTS During a median of 8.67 years of follow-up, 2,146 deaths were documented. After multivariate adjustments, moderate/severe periodontitis was significantly associated with all-cause (HR:1.28; 95 % CI:1.11-1.47; P = 0.001) and cardiovascular disease (CVD)-related mortality (HR:1.44; 95 % CI:1.14-1.81; P = 0.002) in participants with CKD. Compared with the reference group of mean CAL and mean PPD levels, all-cause (CAL: HR, 1.58; 95 % CI, 1.32-1.89, P <0.001; PPD: HR, 1.35, 95 % CI, 1.09-1.67, P = 0.011) and CVD-related mortality (CAL: HR, 1.70, 95 % CI, 1.21-2.40, P = 0.001) were increased for participants in the highest quartile. CONCLUSIONS This study suggests that moderate/severe periodontitis and high levels of mean CAL and mean PPD are associated with an increased risk of all-cause mortality, and moderate/severe periodontitis and mean CAL associated with CVD-related mortality among adults with CKD in the US. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE This study details the association between periodontitis and the increased risk of all-cause mortality and CVD-related mortality in a large, representative sample of adults with CKD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The co-occurrence of cardiometabolic diseases (CMDs) is increasingly prevalent and has been associated with an additive risk of dementia in older adults, but the extent to which this risk can be offset by a healthy lifestyle is unknown. We aimed to examine the associations of cardiometabolic multimorbidity and lifestyle with incident dementia and related brain structural changes. METHODS This prospective study extracted health and lifestyle data from 171 538 UK Biobank participants aged 60 years or older without dementia at baseline between 2006 and 2010 and followed up until July 2021, as well as brain structural data in a nested imaging subsample of 11 972 participants. Cardiometabolic multimorbidity was defined as the presence of two or more CMDs among type 2 diabetes, coronary heart disease, stroke, and hypertension. Lifestyle patterns were determined based on 7 modifiable lifestyle factors including smoking, alcohol consumption, physical activity, diet, sleep duration, sedentary behavior, and social contact. RESULTS Over a median follow-up of 12.3 years, 4479 (2.6%) participants developed dementia. The presence of CMDs was dose-dependently associated with an increased risk of dementia. Compared with participants with no CMDs and a favourable lifestyle, those with ≥ 3 CMDs and an unfavourable lifestyle had a five times greater risk of developing dementia (HR 5.33, 95% CI 4.26-6.66). A significant interaction was found between CMD status and lifestyle (Pinteraction=0.001). The absolute difference in incidence rates of dementia per 1000 person years comparing favourable versus unfavourable lifestyle was - 0.65 (95% CI - 1.02 to - 0.27) among participants with no CMDs and - 5.64 (- 8.11 to - 3.17) among participants with ≥ 3 CMDs, corresponding to a HR of 0.71 (0.58-0.88) and 0.42 (0.28-0.63), respectively. In the imaging subsample, a favourable lifestyle was associated with larger total brain, grey matter, and hippocampus volumes across CMD status. CONCLUSION Our findings suggest that adherence to a healthy lifestyle might substantially attenuate dementia risk and adverse brain structural changes associated with cardiometabolic multimorbidity.

Abstract
Background: Uncertainty exists regarding the operating pathways between near-roadway exposure and dementia incidence. We intend to examine relationships between proximity to major roadways with dementia incidence and brain MRI structure measures, and potential mediation roles of air and noise pollution. Methods: The cohort study was based on the UK Biobank. Baseline survey was conducted from 2006 to 2010, with linkage to electronic health records conducted for follow-up. Residential distance to major roadways was ascertained residential address postcode. A land use regression model was applied for estimating traffic-related air pollution at residence. Dementia incidence was ascertained using national administrative databases. Brain MRI measures were derived as image-derived phenotypes, including total brain, white matter, gray matter, and peripheral cortical gray matter. Results: We included 460,901 participants [mean (SD) age: 57.1 (8.1) years; men: 45.7%]. Compared with individuals living >1,000 m from major traffic roads, living ≤1,000 m was associated with a 13% to 14% higher dementia risk, accounting for 10% of dementia cases. Observed association between residential distance and dementia was substantially mediated by traffic-related air pollution, mainly nitrogen dioxide (proportion mediated: 63.6%; 95% CI, 27.0 to 89.2%) and PM2.5 (60.9%, 26.8 to 87.0%). The shorter residential distance was associated with smaller volumes of brain structures, which was also mediated by traffic-related air pollutants. No significant mediation role was observed of noise pollution. Conclusions: The shorter residential distance to major roads was associated with elevated dementia incidence and smaller brain structure volumes, which was mainly mediated by traffic-related air pollution.

The impact of modifiable risk factors in the association between socioeconomic status and sudden cardiac death in a prospective cohort study: equal access to healthcare, unequal outcome. Eur J Prev Cardiol 2023; 30:1526-1534. [PMID: 36943322 DOI: 10.1093/eurjpc/zwad086] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/09/2022] [Revised: 03/10/2023] [Accepted: 03/17/2023] [Indexed: 03/23/2023]
Abstract
AIMS Low socioeconomic status is associated with all-cause mortality and cardiac risk factors. Furthermore, sudden cardiac death (SCD) is among the leading causes of death in the general population, and an identification of high-risk subgroups is needed. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between income and education level and incidence of SCD and to calculate the impact of modifiable mediating risk factors. METHODS AND RESULTS Participants in the Copenhagen City Heart Study were followed up from 1993 to 2016. Sudden cardiac death was identified using high-quality death certificates, autopsy reports, discharge summaries, and national registry data. Hazard ratios were calculated using Cox proportional hazards regression, and adjusted cumulative incidences were predicted using cause-specific Cox models. Mediation analyses were performed using a marginal structural model approach. During 24 years of follow-up, 10 006 people participated, whereof 5514 died during the study period with 822 SCDs. Compared with long education, persons with elementary school level education had an SCD incidence rate ratio (IRR) of 2.48 [95% confidence interval (CI) 1.86-3.31], and low income was likewise associated with an SCD IRR of 2.34 (95% CI 1.85-2.96) compared with high income. In the association between education and SCD, the combined mediating effect of smoking, physical activity, and body mass index accounted for ∼20% of the risk differences. CONCLUSION We observed an inverse association between both income and education and the risk of SCD, which was only in part explained by common cardiac risk factors, implying that further research into the competing causes of SCD is needed and stressing the importance of targeted preventive measures.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In this study, a cross-sectional survey was used to understand and analyze the health status and health needs of the elderly in the community. The cluster analysis method was used to explore the relationship between health needs items and investigate the commonness among health demand items, to provide a reference for the development of health management of the elderly with chronic diseases. METHODS We used convenience sampling to recruit the participants (aged 60 and above) from four urban community centers in Jinzhou City, Liaoning Province, China, in this study. This study uses the Medical Outcomes Study(MOS)36-Item Short-Form Health Survey. The self-designed questionnaire includes sociodemographic characteristics, chronic diseases, physical examination conditions, illness in the past two weeks, and a health needs questionnaire. SPSS 18.0 was used for data entry and analysis. Data analysis methods included descriptive statistical analysis, t-test, one-way analysis, cluster analysis, and linear multiple regression analysis. RESULTS The rate of health needs among the elderly in the community for various health services is 1.3-69.7%, of which the top three are: regular physical examination (69.7%), day Care Center (67.7%), the establishment of a Medical Alert Systems (66.1%). The health needs of the elderly in the community are divided into three categories: basic needs (24 items), health education (13 items), and first aid (2 items). The regression analysis found that the influencing factors of health status were age, revenue and expenditure, medical expenses, health education, basic needs, and first aid. CONCLUSIONS The community should strengthen the management of chronic diseases of the elderly and the publicity and education of related knowledge, and provide complementary health care services according to the health needs of the elderly, improve the health of the elderly, and improve the quality of life of the elderly.

[PMID: 37798350 PMCID: PMC10556137 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-023-43669-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/02/2023] [Accepted: 09/27/2023] [Indexed: 10/07/2023] Open
Abstract
Mortality is predicted by the sum of behavior-related health risk factors (BRFs: tobacco smoking, alcohol drinking, body overweight, and physical inactivity). We analyzed degrees and combinations of BRFs in their relation to mortality and adjusted for mental disorders. In a random sample of the general population in northern Germany aged 18-64, BRFs and mental disorders had been assessed in 1996-1997 by the Munich Composite International Diagnostic Interview. A sum score including eight ranks of the behavior-related health risk factors was built. Death and its causes were ascertained 2017-2018 using residents' registration files and death certificates. Relations of the sum score and combinations of the BRFs at baseline with all-cause, cancer, and cardiovascular mortality 20 years later were analyzed. The sum score and combinations predicted all-cause, cardiovascular and cancer mortality. The odds ratio of the sum score was 1.38 (95% confidence interval 1.31-1.46) after adjustment for age, gender, and mental disorder. In addition to the BRFs, mood, anxiety or somatoform disorders were not related to mortality. We concluded that the sum score and combinations of behavior-related health risk factors predicted mortality, even after adjustment for mental disorders.

ECOTOXICOLOGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY 2023; 264:115436. [PMID: 37672940 DOI: 10.1016/j.ecoenv.2023.115436] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/13/2023] [Revised: 08/20/2023] [Accepted: 09/01/2023] [Indexed: 09/08/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to investigate the relationship of residential green and blue spaces with incident nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), and explore the potential mediation effects of air pollutants and modification effect of genetic susceptibility. METHODS 411,200 UK Biobank participants without prior liver diseases were included. Land use data were used to estimate residential green and blue spaces (land coverage percentage) at 300 m and 1000 m buffer. The study outcome was incident NAFLD, ascertained through linkage to hospital admissions and death registry records. RESULTS 5198 NAFLD cases were documented after a median follow-up of 12.5 years. Green and blue spaces were inversely associated with the hazard of NAFLD: per standard deviation (SD) increment of green space coverage at 300 m (SD: 14.5 %; HR, 0.88, 95 %CI, 0.86-0.91) and 1000 m (SD: 14.1 %; HR, 0.88, 95 %CI, 0.86-0.91) buffer, and blue space coverage at 300 m (SD: 1.0 %; HR,0.95, 95 %CI, 0.93-0.98) and 1000 m (SD: 1.2 %; HR,0.96, 95 %CI, 0.93-0.99) buffer were related with a 4-12 % reduction of NAFLD incidence. The beneficial effects of approximately 25-52 % of green space exposure and about 5-35 % of blue space exposure on NAFLD incidence were mediated by the reduction of PM2.5, NO2 and NOx (All Pindirect effect <0.05). Moreover, genetic susceptibility of NAFLD did not modify the relationship of green and blue spaces with NAFLD incidence. CONCLUSION Residential green and blue spaces were inversely related to NAFLD incidence. These results suggest that green and blue spaces are modifiable factors that may help prevent NAFLD, and therefore, can be considered as a novel environmental strategy to promote liver health at the community level, rather than only at the individual level.

Association of intrinsic capacity with incidence and mortality of cardiovascular disease: Prospective study in UK Biobank. J Cachexia Sarcopenia Muscle 2023; 14:2054-2063. [PMID: 37434422 PMCID: PMC10570093 DOI: 10.1002/jcsm.13283] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/26/2023] [Revised: 05/28/2023] [Accepted: 06/11/2023] [Indexed: 07/13/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The World Health Organization proposed the concept of intrinsic capacity (IC; the composite of all the physical and mental capacities of the individual) as central for healthy ageing. However, little research has investigated the interaction and joint associations of IC with cardiovascular disease (CVD) incidence and CVD mortality in middle- and older-aged adults. METHODS Using data from 443 130 UK Biobank participants, we analysed seven biomarkers capturing the level of functioning of five domains of IC to calculate a total IC score (ranging from 0 [better IC] to +4 points [poor IC]). Associations between IC score and incidence of six long-term CVD conditions (hypertension, stroke/transient ischaemic attack stroke, peripheral vascular disease, atrial fibrillation/flutter, coronary artery disease and heart failure), and grouped mortality from these conditions were estimated using Cox proportional models, with a 1-year landmark analysis to triangulate the findings. RESULTS Over 10.6 years of follow-up, CVD morbidity grouped (n = 384 380 participants for the final analytic sample) was associated with IC scores (0 to +4): mean hazard ratio (HR) [95% confidence interval, CI] 1.11 [1.08-1.14], 1.20 [1.16-1.24], 1.29 [1.23-1.36] and 1.56 [1.45-1.59] in men (C-index = 0.68), and 1.17 [1.13-1.20], 1.30 [1.26-1.36], 1.52 [1.45-1.59] and 1.78 [1.67-1.89] in women (C-index = 0.70). In regard to mortality, our results indicated that the higher IC score (+4 points) was associated with a significant increase in subsequent CVD mortality (mean HR [95% CI]: 2.10 [1.81-2.43] in men [C-index = 0.75] and 2.29 [1.85-2.84] in women [C-index = 0.78]). Results of all sensitivity analyses by full sample, sex and age categories were largely consistent independent of major confounding factors (P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS IC deficit score is a powerful predictor of functional trajectories and vulnerabilities of the individual in relation to CVD incidence and premature death. Monitoring an individual's IC score may provide an early-warning system to initiate preventive efforts.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Phenylacetylglutamine (PAGln)-a newly discovered microbial metabolite produced by phenylalanine metabolism-is reportedly associated with cardiovascular events via adrenergic receptors. Nonetheless, its association with cardiovascular outcomes in heart failure (HF) patients remains unknown. OBJECTIVES This study aimed to prospectively investigate the prognostic value of PAGln for HF. METHODS Plasma PAGln levels were quantified by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. We first assessed the association between plasma PAGln levels and the incidence of adverse cardiovascular events in 3152 HF patients (including HF with preserved and reduced ejection fraction) over a median follow-up period of 2 years. The primary endpoint was the composite of cardiovascular death or heart transplantation. We then assessed the prognostic role of PAGln in addition to the classic biomarker N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP). The correlation between PAGln levels and β-blocker use was also investigated. RESULTS In total, 520 cardiovascular deaths or heart transplantations occurred in the HF cohort. Elevated PAGln levels were independently associated with a higher risk of the primary endpoint in a dose-response manner, regardless of HF subtype. Concurrent assessment of PAGln and NT-proBNP levels enhanced risk stratification among HF patients. PAGln further showed prognostic value at low NT-proBNP levels. Additionally, the interaction effects between PAGln and β-blocker use were not significant. CONCLUSIONS Plasma PAGln levels are an independent predictor of an increased risk of adverse cardiovascular events in HF. Our work could provide joint and complementary prognostic value to NT-proBNP levels in HF patients.

[PMID: 37804845 DOI: 10.1016/s2666-7568(23)00140-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/05/2023] [Revised: 07/17/2023] [Accepted: 07/17/2023] [Indexed: 10/09/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Lifestyle and longevity genes have different and important roles in the human lifespan; however, the association between a healthy lifestyle in late-life and life expectancy mediated by genetic risk is yet to be elucidated. We aimed to investigate the associations of healthy lifestyle in late-life and genetic risk with life expectancy among older adults. METHODS A weighted healthy lifestyle score was constructed from the following variables: current non-smoking, non-harmful alcohol consumption, regular physical activity, and a healthy diet. Participants were recruited from the Chinese Longitudinal Healthy Longevity Survey, a prospective community-based cohort study that took place between 1998 and 2018. Eligible participants were aged 65 years and older with available information on lifestyle factors at baseline, and then were categorised into unhealthy (bottom tertile of the weighted healthy lifestyle score), intermediate (middle tertile), and healthy (top tertile) lifestyle groups. A genetic risk score was constructed based on 11 lifespan loci among 9633 participants, divided by the median and classified into low and high genetic risk groups. Stratified Cox proportional hazard regression was used to estimate the interaction between genetic and lifestyle factors on all-cause mortality risk. FINDINGS Between Jan 13, 1998, and Dec 31, 2018, 36 164 adults aged 65 years and older were recruited, among whom a total of 27 462 deaths were documented during a median follow-up of 3·12 years (IQR 1·62-5·94) and included in the lifestyle association analysis. Compared with the unhealthy lifestyle category, participants in the healthy lifestyle group had a lower all-cause mortality risk (hazard ratio [HR] 0·56 [95% CI 0·54-0·57]; p<0·0001). The highest mortality risk was observed in individuals in the high genetic risk and unhealthy lifestyle group (HR 1·80 [95% CI 1·63-1·98]; p<0·0001). The absolute risk reduction was greater for participants in the high genetic risk group. A healthy lifestyle was associated with a gain of 3·84 years (95% CI 3·05-4·64) at the age of 65 years in the low genetic risk group, and 4·35 years (3·70-5·06) in the high genetic risk group. INTERPRETATION A healthy lifestyle, even in late-life, was associated with lower mortality risk and longer life expectancy among Chinese older adults, highlighting the importance of a healthy lifestyle in extending the lifespan, especially for individuals with high genetic risk.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Previous studies have identified that socioeconomic status (SES) and obesity are associated with hypertension. However, their interaction on hypertension risk has not yet been assessed. METHODS The study used data from 6,069 Tibetan residents in Chengguan District in Lhasa, the Chinese Tibetan autonomous region's capital, based on a cohort study conducted from May 2018 to September 2019 in five provinces in southwest China. We used logistic regression models to assess the complex relations of SES and obesity with hypertension. RESULTS Compared with individuals of high SES, low and moderate SES were positively associated with high risk of hypertension. SES and obesity have significant additive interaction on hypertension (general obesity by BMI: RERI = 1.33, P < 0.001; abdominal obesity by WC: RERI = 0.76, P < 0.001; abdominal obesity by WHtR: RERI = 0.96, P < 0.001). In people from the low and moderate SES segments, obesity was linked to an increased risk of hypertension, but the correlations were stronger in people from the moderate SES category. Compared with people of high SES and non obese, those with moderate SES and obesity had a higher risk of hypertension, and ORs were 4.38 (2.80, 6.84) for general obesity by BMI, 3.38 (2.05, 5.57) for abdominal obesity by WC, and 3.18 (1.57, 6.42) for abdominal obesity by WHtR. CONCLUSION There is an independent and additive interaction effect of obesity and SES on the risk of hypertension. People with obesity, especially those of moderate and low SES, should reduce weight and waist circumference, and pay more attention to blood pressure. Moreover, the government, health administration departments, and society should prioritize improving the socioeconomic status of the Tibetan population and addressing risk factors like obesity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aims to investigate the association between sleep quality and infertility among women and to explore the mediating effects of DNA methylation in this association. METHODS This study is a population-based case-control study. The relationship between sleep quality and infertility was investigated in women with anovulatory infertility (n = 43) and healthy controls (n = 43). Genome-wide DNA methylation was profiled from peripheral blood samples using the Illumina Infinium Human Methylation 850k BeadChip. Differentially methylated CpGs between cases and controls were identified using the ChAMP R package. The mediating effect of DNA methylation between sleep quality and infertility among women was investigated using the Bayesian estimation method provided by the R package "mediation". RESULTS The survey included 86 women of reproductive age, with 43 participants each in the case and control groups. The average age of the women was 27.6 ± 2.8 years (case group: 27.8 ± 3.0 years, control group: 27.4 ± 2.7 years). A total of 262 differentially methylated CpGs corresponding to 185 genes were identified. Difficulty falling asleep was a risk factor for infertility in women (OR = 3.69, 95%CI = 1.14, 11.99), and a causal mediation effect of DNA methylation CpGs was found. The mediating effect coefficient for cg08298632 was 0.10 (95%CI = 0.01-0.22), and the proportion of the total effect mediated by this methylation site increased to 64.3%. CONCLUSION These results suggest that DNA methylation CpGs (cg08298632) play a significant role in the relationship between difficulty falling asleep and infertility in females. These findings contribute to our understanding of the underlying mechanisms that connect difficulty falling asleep and infertility in women. Further studies are necessary to fully understand the biological significance and potential therapeutic applications of these findings. The identified DNA methylation sites provide new and valuable insights and potential targets for future studies aiming to prevent and treat female infertility.

Abstract
Background To evaluate the sex-specific associations of total and regional fat/muscle mass ratio (FMR) with cardiovascular disease (CVD) incidence and mortality, and to explore the underlying mechanisms driven by cardiometabolites and inflammatory cells. We compared the predictive value of FMRs to body mass index. Methods and Results This population-based, prospective cohort study included 468 885 UK Biobank participants free of CVD at baseline. Fat mass and muscle mass were estimated using a bioelectrical impedance assessment device. FMR was calculated as fat mass divided by muscle mass in corresponding body parts (total body, trunk, arm, and leg). Multivariable Cox proportional hazards models and mediation analyses were used. During 12.5 years of follow-up, we documented 49 936 CVD cases and 4158 CVD deaths. Higher total FMR was associated with an increased risk of incident CVD (hazard ratios [HRs] were 1.63 and 1.83 for men and women, respectively), ischemic heart disease (men: HR, 1.61; women: HR, 1.81), myocardial infarction (men: HR, 1.72; women: HR, 1.49), and congestive heart failure (men: HR, 2.25; women: HR, 2.57). The positive associations of FMRs with mortality from total CVD or its subtypes were significant mainly in trunk and arm for male patients (P for trend <0.05). We also identified 8 cardiometabolites and 5 inflammatory cells that partially mediated FMR-CVD associations. FMRs were modestly better at discriminating cardiovascular mortality risk. Conclusions Higher total and regional FMRs were associated with an increased risk of CVD and mortality, partly mediated through cardiometabolites and inflammatory cells. Early monitoring of FMR should be considered to alleviate CVD risk. FMRs were superior to body mass index in predicting CVD mortality.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Lifestyle adjustment has been reported as one of the interventions for dyslipidemia. This study aimed to explore the effect of overall lifestyle on the risk of all-cause mortality and cardiovascular disease (CVD) death in dyslipidemia patients with or without lipid-lowering therapy. METHODS This was a retrospective cohort study, and data were extracted from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). Overall lifestyle was assessed based on Mediterranean diet score, physical activity, smoking status, sleep duration, and body mass index (BMI). Multivariate Cox regression model was used to explore the effect of overall lifestyle score on the risk of all-cause mortality and CVD death. Results were shown as hazard ratio (HR), with 95% confidence interval (CI). RESULTS A total of 11,549 dyslipidemia patients were finally included in this study. The results showed that optimal overall lifestyle was associated with the decreased risk of all-cause mortality (HR = 0.47, 95%CI: 0.34-0.64) and CVD death (HR = 0.45, 95%CI: 0.22-0.94) in patients without lipid-lowering therapy. The similar results were found in patients with lipid-lowering therapy (all-cause mortality: HR = 0.45, 95%CI: 0.33-0.62; CVD death: HR = 0.38, 95%CI: 0.23-0.63). CONCLUSIONS A favorable overall lifestyle may have great benefits to improve the prognosis of dyslipidemia, highlighting the importance of overall lifestyle adjustment for dyslipidemia patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality is persistently higher in the Black population than in other racial and ethnic groups in the United States. OBJECTIVE To examine the degree to which social, behavioral, and metabolic risk factors are associated with CVD mortality and the extent to which racial differences in CVD mortality persist after these factors are accounted for. DESIGN Prospective cohort study. SETTING NHANES (National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey) 1999 to 2018. PARTICIPANTS A nationally representative sample of 50 808 persons aged 20 years or older. MEASUREMENTS Data on social, behavioral, and metabolic factors were collected in each NHANES survey using standard methods. Deaths from CVD were ascertained from linkage to the National Death Index with follow-up through 2019. RESULTS Over an average of 9.4 years of follow-up, 2589 CVD deaths were confirmed. The age- and sex-standardized rates of CVD mortality were 484.7 deaths per 100 000 person-years in Black participants, 384.5 deaths per 100 000 person-years in White participants, 292.4 deaths per 100 000 person-years in Hispanic participants, and 255.1 deaths per 100 000 person-years in other race groups. In a multiple Cox regression analysis adjusted for all measured risk factors simultaneously, several social (unemployment, low family income, food insecurity, lack of home ownership, and unpartnered status), behavioral (current smoking, lack of leisure-time physical activity, and sleep <6 or >8 h/d), and metabolic (obesity, hypertension, and diabetes) risk factors were associated with a significantly higher risk for CVD death. After adjustment for these metabolic, behavioral, and social risk factors separately, hazard ratios of CVD mortality for Black compared with White participants were attenuated from 1.54 (95% CI, 1.34 to 1.77) to 1.34 (CI, 1.16 to 1.55), 1.31 (CI, 1.15 to 1.50), and 1.04 (CI, 0.90 to 1.21), respectively. LIMITATION Causal contributions of social, behavioral, and metabolic risk factors to racial and ethnic disparities in CVD mortality could not be established. CONCLUSION The Black-White difference in CVD mortality diminished after adjustment for behavioral and metabolic risk factors and completely dissipated with adjustment for social determinants of health in the U.S. population.

Abstract
PURPOSE Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is a multisystem inflammatory disorder associated with significant mortality and morbidity, including functional impairment and psychological disability. Although evidence-based treatment recommendations are available for the use of drug treatments in PsA, there is little guidance for health professionals on nonpharmacologic and psychological interventions that may be useful in PsA. The objective of this systematic review (SR) was to identify how lifestyle modifications and the use of nonpharmacologic and psychological interventions may improve the outcomes of patients with PsA. METHODS Studies were included if they evaluated adults diagnosed with PsA and included exposure to nonpharmacologic interventions, psychological interventions, and lifestyle modifications. The outcomes used needed to have been validated in PsA. A systematic literature search was run on May 28, 2021, in the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL), Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature (CINAHL), Allied and Complementary Medicine Database (AMED), EMBASE, Global Health, MEDLINE, and PsycINFO databases to identify articles related to lifestyle modifications and nonpharmacologic or psychological interventions for adults with PsA published between 2010 and 2021. Two review authors independently screened and selected full-text studies for inclusion in the SR. Risk of bias was assessed with either the Risk of Bias 2 (ie, RoB 2) tool or Critical Appraisal Skills Program checklist depending on the study type. FINDINGS The search strategy identified 26,132 references. Eight studies examining lifestyle modifications and the effect on PsA were eligible to be included in the SR. Three of the 8 studies were randomized controlled trials, and 5 were nonrandomized studies. Three studies assessed physical activity, 3 assessed diet, 1 study assessed smoking, and another study assessed mud bath therapy. There was large heterogeneity between studies, and the measures of disease activity, and psychological and functional outcomes varied widely between studies. IMPLICATIONS Although this SR identified 8 relevant studies, these studies did not provide high-quality evidence to guide patients for non-drug treatments of PsA. The effectiveness of these interventions has therefore not been established. We found that physical activity seems to have a positive impact on disease activity and psychological well-being. Further well-designed research studies are needed to develop treatment recommendations. PROSPERO identifier: CRD42021257404.

Abstract
PURPOSE The relationship between vitamin D levels and cancer incidence and mortality in individuals with metabolic syndrome (MetS) remains poorly explored. Herein, we aimed to determine the association between 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] concentrations and the risk of 16 cancer incidence types and cancer/all-cause mortality in patients with MetS. METHODS We enrolled 97,621 participants with MetS at recruitment from the UK Biobank cohort. The exposure factor was baseline serum 25(OH)D concentrations. The associations were examined using Cox proportional hazards models, which were displayed as hazard ratios (HRs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs). RESULTS Over a median follow-up period of 10.92 years for cancer incidence outcomes, 12,137 new cancer cases were recorded. We observed that 25(OH)D concentrations were inversely related to the risk of colon, lung, and kidney cancer, and HRs (95% CI) for 25(OH)D ≥ 75.0 vs. < 25.0 nmol/L were 0.67 (0.45-0.98), 0.64 (0.45-0.91), and 0.54 (0.31-0.95), respectively. The fully adjusted model revealed a null correlation between 25(OH)D and the incidence of stomach, rectum, liver, pancreas, breast, ovary, bladder, brain, multiple myeloma, leukemia, non-Hodgkin lymphoma, esophagus, and corpus uteri cancer. Over a median follow-up period of 12.72 years for mortality outcomes, 8286 fatalities (including 3210 cancer mortalities) were documented. An "L-shaped" nonlinear dose-response correlation was detected between 25(OH)D and cancer/all-cause mortality; the respective HRs (95% CI) were 0.75 (0.64-0.89) and 0.65 (0.58-0.72). CONCLUSION These findings emphasize the importance of 25(OH)D in cancer prevention and longevity promotion among patients with MetS.

Abstract
People who have a balanced diet and engage in more physical activity live longer, healthier lives. This study aimed to test the hypothesis that these associations reflect a slowing of biological processes of aging. We analyzed data from 42 625 participants (aged 20-84 years, 51% female participants) from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys (NHANES), 1999-2018. We calculated adherence to a Mediterranean diet (MeDi) and level of leisure time physical activity (LTPA) using standard methods. We measured biological aging by applying the PhenoAge algorithm, developed using clinical and mortality data from NHANES-III (1988-94), to clinical chemistries measured from a blood draw at the time of the survey. We tested the associations of diet and physical activity measures with biological aging, explored synergies between these health behaviors, and tested heterogeneity in their associations across strata of age, sex, and body mass index. Participants who adhered to the MeDi and who did more LTPA had younger biological ages compared with those who had less-healthy lifestyles (high vs low MeDi tertiles: β = 0.14 standard deviation [SD] [95% confidence interval {CI}: -0.18, -0.11]; high vs sedentary LTPA, β = 0.12 SD [-0.15, -0.09]), in models controlled for demographic and socioeconomic characteristics. Healthy diet and regular physical activity were independently associated with lower clinically defined biological aging, regardless of age, sex, and BMI category.

Abstract
Background: Global ultra-processed food (UPF) consumption has risen rapidly. The development and prognosis of depression and anxiety remain unclarified. Herein, we aimed to examine the association between UPF consumption and the incidence and progression trajectory of depression and anxiety. Methods: In our study, participants were recruited between 2006 and 2010. UPF consumption was expressed as UPF servings, energy ratio, and weight ratio. The relationships between UPF consumption and depression or anxiety were assessed using the Cox proportional hazards model. Multi-state models were used to explore the association between UPF consumption and the risks of all transitions from a healthy state to depression or anxiety and then to all-cause mortality. Results: Among the 183 474 participants, 5453 were diagnosed with depression and 6763 with anxiety during the follow-up of 13.1 years. The participants in the highest quartile (Q4) of UPF servings, energy ratio, and weight ratio had an increased risk of depression compared to those in the lowest quartile (Q1), with hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals [CIs] of 1.22 (1.13-1.31), 1.13 (1.05-1.22), and 1.26 (1.17-1.36), respectively. Similarly, participants in Q4 of UPF consumption had a higher risk of anxiety, with HRs (95% CIs) of 1.13 (1.06-1.21), 1.13 (1.05-1.21), and 1.11 (1.04-1.19), compared to those in Q1. The study also found a significant association between UPF consumption and all-cause mortality, which disappeared for participants with depression or anxiety. Conclusions: Our findings revealed that UPF consumption is associated with depression or anxiety.

Adverse childhood and adulthood experiences and risk of new-onset cardiovascular disease with consideration of social support: a prospective cohort study. BMC Med 2023; 21:297. [PMID: 37553602 PMCID: PMC10408183 DOI: 10.1186/s12916-023-03015-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/12/2023] [Accepted: 07/28/2023] [Indexed: 08/10/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The relationship between adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and adverse adulthood experiences (AAEs) and their association with incident cardiovascular disease (CVD) have not been extensively studied. Considering social support, we evaluated the complex relations of ACEs and AAEs with incident CVD. METHODS This prospective cohort study used data from the 2014 life course survey and the 2015 and 2018 surveys of the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study, a national survey of Chinese adults aged ≥ 45 years from 28 provinces across China. The study population included 5836 individuals (mean [SD] age, 59.59 [8.22] years, 49.7% were males). Information on ACEs, AAEs, young adulthood social support, health behavior factors, health status factors, and demographics was measured. Cox regression models, the difference method to estimate the mediation proportion, and the additive and multiplicative interactions were performed. Subgroup and sensitivity analyses were also conducted. RESULTS During follow-up, 789 incident cases of CVD occurred. The fully adjusted model, including demographics, health behaviors, health status factors (e.g., depressive symptoms), and social support as control variables, demonstrated that the overall number of ACEs (Hazard ratio [HR]: 1.11, 95% CI: 1.08 to 1.14) and AAEs (HR: 1.19, 95% CI: 1.16 to 1.22) were associated with an increased risk of incident CVD. A dose-response relationship existed between the number of ACEs or AAEs and incident CVD risk. The overall AAEs were found to mediate 17.7% (95% CI: 8.2 to 34.2%) of the association between ACEs and incident CVD. Moreover, a significant additive interaction between ACEs and AAEs was detected (RERI [95% CI]: 0.32 [0.09 to 0.56]). Compared with adults without exposure to both ACE and AAE, those with exposure to both at least one ACE and one AAE indicator had the highest risk of incident CVD (HR: 1.96, 95% CI: 1.72 to 2.23). CONCLUSIONS Exposure to ACEs or AAEs was independently associated with an increased risk of incident CVD among Chinese middle-aged and older adults in a dose-response manner, and the overall AAEs partially mediated the association between ACEs and incident CVD. Preventive measures aimed at addressing either ACEs or AAEs alone may not significantly reduce the risk of CVD later in life. The necessity of a comprehensive life-course health strategy targeting the prevention of adversity merits increased attention.

Abstract
Background Unhealthy lifestyles and chronic diseases are commonly seen and treatable factors in older adults and are both associated with dementia. However, the synergistic effect of the interaction of lifestyles and chronic diseases on dementia is unknown. Methods We determined independent associations of multidomain lifestyles and chronic diseases (cerebrovascular disease, diabetes, and hypertension) with dementia and examined their synergistic impact on dementia among older adults. The data were drawn from the Hubei Memory and Aging Cohort Study. We created a summary score of six factors for multidomain lifestyles. Dementia was diagnosed according to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders IV. Logistic regression and multiple correspondence analyses were used to explore the relationships among multidomain lifestyles, chronic diseases, and dementia. A sensitivity analysis was performed to minimize the interference of reverse causality and potential confounders. Results Independent associations with dementia were found in unhealthy (OR = 1.90, 95% CI: 1.38-2.61) and intermediate healthy lifestyles (OR, 3.29, 2.32-4.68), hypertension (OR, 1.21, 1.01-1.46), diabetes (OR, 1.30, 1.04-1.63), and cerebrovascular disease (OR, 1.39, 1.12-1.72). Interactions of diabetes (p = 0.004), hypertension (p = 0.004), and lifestyles were significant, suggesting a combined impact on dementia. Sensitivity analysis supported the strong association among multidomain lifestyles, chronic diseases, and dementia prevalence. Conclusion An unhealthy lifestyle was associated with a higher prevalence of dementia, regardless of whether the participants had chronic diseases; however, this association was stronger in individuals with chronic diseases. Multidomain lifestyles and chronic diseases may have an enhanced impact on dementia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Social determinants of health (SDH) reflecting social deprivation have been developed for population health management. There is a paucity of data on the prevalence of SDH and its associations with prevalent hypertension in women compared with men. METHODS A total of 49 791 participants aged over 20 years from the 1999-2018 National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys, were included. Information on the SDH, including race/ethnicity, education level, family income, housing, marriage status, employment, were collected. We calculated the prevalence ratio (PR) for each adverse SDH with prevalent hypertension and uncontrolled hypertension by using Cox regression with equal times of follow-up assigned to all individuals with adjustment for age, diabetes, taking lipid-lowering medication, and health behaviors. The population-attributable fractions (PAF) of the SDH were also assessed. RESULTS A lower proportion of low education attainment was observed in women than men (women: 16.8% vs. men: 17.9%, p = .003), but women had higher proportions of low family income (15.3% vs. 12.5%, p < .001), unmarried state (47.3% vs. 40.9%, p < .001), and unemployment (22.7% vs. 10.7%, p < .001). All the SDH was significantly associated with hypertension in women. There were significant dose-response associations between the numbers of adverse SDH with hypertension. The total PAF of SDH for prevalent hypertension was greater in women (22.2%) than in men (13.9%). CONCLUSIONS The widely influential SDH is associated with prevalent hypertension and uncontrolled hypertension. To improve hypertension management, health resources should prioritize socioeconomically disadvantaged groups considering gender differences.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is limited evidence on the individual and joint effect of socioeconomic status (SES) and unhealthy lifestyle on cancer. Therefore, this study aimed to examine the effects of these factors on cancer incidence and mortality. METHODS In this population-based cohort study, income was used as the proxy of SES. A combined unhealthy lifestyle score was obtained using data on smoking, alcohol consumption, physical activity, and body mass index. Hazard ratios were estimated using a Cox proportional hazards model. RESULTS The study included data on 8,353,169 participants (median follow-up period, 17 years). Although the association between low income and cancer incidence varied depending on cancer type, low income consistently increased the risk of cancer-related death with a social gradient. Unhealthy behaviors increased the risk of cancer incidence and mortality, except for thyroid and breast cancer in women and prostate cancer in men. Compared with the wealthiest and healthiest individuals, the poorest and unhealthiest men and women showed 2.1-fold (2.05-2.14) and 1.36-fold (1.31-1.41) higher risk of cancer-related death, respectively. The joint effect was most robust for lung, liver, head, and neck cancers in men and liver and cervical cancers in women; further, the effect was stronger with cancer-specific mortality than with incidence. CONCLUSION In conclusion, income and combined healthy lifestyle behaviors have individual and joint effects on cancer incidence and mortality. The effect varies by cancer type and sex.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To assess the different educational inequalities in mortality among generations born between 1940 and 1979 in China, and to investigate the role of socioeconomic, behavioural, and metabolic factors as potential contributors to the reduction of educational inequalities. DESIGN Nationwide, population based, prospective cohort study. SETTING The ChinaHEART (China Health Evaluation And risk Reduction through nationwide Teamwork) project in all 31 provinces in the mainland of China. PARTICIPANTS 1 283 774 residents aged 35-75 years, divided into four separate cohorts born in 1940s, 1950s, 1960s, and 1970s. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Relative index of inequality and all cause mortality. RESULTS During a median follow-up of 3.5 years (interquartile range 2.1-4.7), 22 552 deaths were recorded. Among the four generations, lower education levels were found to be associated with a higher risk of all cause death: Compared with participants with college level education or above, the hazard ratio for people with primary school education and below was 1.4 (95% confidence interval 1.2 to 1.7) in the 1940s cohort, 1.8 (1.5 to 2.1) in the 1950s cohort, 2.0 (1.7 to 2.4) in the 1960s cohort, and 1.8 (1.4 to 2.4) in the 1970s cohort. Educational relative index of inequality in mortality increased from 2.1 (95% confidence interval 1.9 to 2.3) in the 1940s cohort to 2.6 (2.1 to 3.3) in the 1970s cohort. Overall, the mediation proportions were 37.5% (95% confidence interval 32.6% to 42.8%) for socioeconomic factors, 13.9% (12.0% to 16.0%) for behavioural factors, and 4.7% (3.7% to 5.8%) for metabolic factors. Except for socioeconomic measurements, the mediating effects by behavioural and metabolic factors decreased in younger generations. CONCLUSION Educational inequalities in mortality increased over generations in China. Improving healthy lifestyles and metabolic risk control for less educated people, especially for younger generations, is essential to reduce health inequalities.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Low socioeconomic status is associated with worse secondary prevention use and prognosis after myocardial infarction (MI). Actions for health equity improvements warrant identification of risk mediators. Therefore, we assessed mediators of the association between socioeconomic status and first recurrent atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease event (rASCVD) after MI. METHODS In this cohort study on 1-year survivors of first-ever MI with Swedish universal health coverage ages 18 to 76 years, individual-level data from SWEDEHEART (Swedish Web System for Enhancement and Development of Evidence-Based Care in Heart Disease Evaluated According to Recommended Therapies) and linked national registries was collected from 2006 through 2020. Exposure was socioeconomic status by disposable income quintile (principal proxy), educational level, and marital status. The primary outcome was rASCVD and secondary outcomes were cardiovascular and all-cause mortality. We initially assessed the incremental attenuation of hazard ratios with 95% CIs in sequential multivariable models adding groups of potential mediators (ie, previous risk factors, acute presentation and infarct severity, initial therapies, and secondary prevention). Thereafter, the proportion of excess rASCVD associated with a low income mediated through nonparticipation in cardiac rehabilitation, suboptimal statin management, a cardiometabolic risk profile, persistent smoking, and blood pressure above target after MI were calculated using causal mediation analysis. RESULTS Among 68 775 participants (73.8% men), 7064 rASCVD occurred during a mean 5.7-year follow-up. Income, adjusted for age, sex, and calendar year, was associated with rASCVD (hazard ratio, 1.63 [95% CI, 1.51-1.76] in the lowest versus highest income quintile). Risk attenuated most by adjustment for previous risk factors and by adding secondary prevention variables for a final model (hazard ratio, 1.38 [95% CI, 1.26-1.51]) in the lowest versus highest income quintile. The proportions of the excess 15-year rASCVD risk in the lowest income quintile mediated through nonparticipation in cardiac rehabilitation, cardiometabolic risk profile, persistent smoking, and poor blood pressure control were 3.3% (95% CI 2.1-4.8), 3.9% (95% CI, 2.9-5.5), 15.2% (95% 9.1-25.7), and 1.0% (95% CI 0.6-1.5), respectively. Risk mediation through optimal statin management was negligible. CONCLUSIONS Nonparticipation in cardiac rehabilitation, a cardiometabolic risk profile, and persistent smoking mediate income-dependent prognosis after MI. In the absence of randomized trials, this causal inference approach may guide decisions to improve health equity.

Abstract
Background Previous studies found that increasing vegetable intake benefits are reduced after adjustment for socioeconomic factors. Using genetic variation as an instrumental variable for vegetable intake and socioeconomic status, we investigated the relationship between vegetable intake and ischemic cardio-cerebral vascular diseases and focused on whether socioeconomic status was a possible confounder. Methods From three independent genome-wide association studies, we extracted instrumental variables reflecting raw and cooked vegetable intake, which were used to perform Mendelian randomization analysis. To evaluate the effects of socioeconomic factors on vegetable intake, univariate and multivariate Mendelian randomization analyses were performed using single nucleotide polymorphisms representing education attainment and household income reported in the literature. We also performed outlier assessment and a series of sensitivity analyses to confirm the results. Results Genetically predicted raw and cooked vegetable intake were not associated with any ischemic cardio-cerebral vascular diseases and lipid components after Bonferroni correction. Univariate Mendelian randomized analysis revealed that raw vegetable intake was positively correlated with education attainment (β = 0.04, p = 0.029) and household income (β = 0.07, p < 0.001). Multivariate Mendelian randomized model showed a positive correlation between household income and raw vegetable intake (β = 0.06, p = 0.004). Socioeconomic status was closely associated with eating habits and lifestyle related to the risk of cardiovascular diseases. Conclusion Genetically determined raw and cooked vegetable intake was not associated with significant benefits in terms of ischemic cardio-cerebral vascular diseases while genetically determined socioeconomic status may have an impact on vegetable intake. Socioeconomic status, which was closely associated with other eating habits and lifestyle, may affect the association between vegetable intake and ischemic cardio-cerebral vascular diseases.

Abstract
Background Inflammation has been linked to the development of coronary heart disease (CHD). The systemic immune inflammation index (SII) is a useful biomarker of systemic inflammation. Our study aimed to explore the correlation between SII and CHD. Methods We conducted a multivariate logistic regression analysis, smoothing curve fitting, and segmented model comparison on 15,905 participants with a CHD prevalence of 3.31% and a mean age of 46.97 years. Results Adjusting for gender, age, and race, we found a negative association between SII and CHD [odds ratio (OR) 0.66; 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.48, 0.90]. There was an inverse trend where increasing SII was associated with decreasing odds of CHD (p for trend = 0.0017). After further adjustment, the association was strengthened, with a similar trend (p for trend = 0.0639). Smoothing curve fitting demonstrated a gender-specific association between SII and CHD. Conclusions Our findings suggest that higher SII values may be associated with a higher incidence of CHD, which varies by gender. SII may be a cost-effective and convenient method to detect CHD. Further studies are needed to confirm the causality of these findings in a larger prospective cohort.

Abstract
Importance Adherence to a healthy lifestyle is associated with lower risks of adverse outcomes. However, trends in multiple lifestyle factors and overall healthy lifestyle status among US adults in recent years are unknown. Objective To examine trends in multiple lifestyle factors and overall healthy lifestyle among US adults. Design, Setting, and Participants This serial cross-sectional study used nationally representative data from 10 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) cycles (nine 2-year cycles from 1999 to 2016 and 1 combined cycle from 2017 to March 2020) among adults 20 years or older. Data were analyzed from December 10, 2021, to January 11, 2023. Exposure Survey cycle. Main Outcomes and Measures Five healthy lifestyle factors: never smoking, moderate or lighter alcohol consumption (for women: ≤7 drinks/wk; for men: ≤14 drinks/wk), healthy diet (Healthy Eating Index-2015 scores ≥60.0), sufficient physical activity (≥150 min/wk of equivalent moderate physical activity), and healthy weight (body mass index [calculated as weight in kilograms divided by height in meters squared] 18.5-24.9). Results A total of 47 852 adults were included in this study. The weighted mean [SE] age was 47.3 [0.2] years; 24 539 (weighted proportion, 51.5%) were women. From the 1999-2000 cycle to the 2017 to March 2020 cycle, the estimated prevalence of the 5 lifestyle factors showed divergent trends, with increasing prevalence of never smoking (from 49.4% [95% CI, 46.4%-52.4%] to 57.7% [95% CI, 55.5%-59.9%]; difference, 8.2% [95% CI, 4.5%-12.0%]), healthy diet (from 19.3% [95% CI, 16.0%-22.6%] to 24.5% [95% CI, 21.5%-27.5%]; difference, 5.2% [95% CI, 0.8%-9.7%]), and sufficient physical activity (from 55.7% [95% CI, 51.8%-59.6%] to 69.1% [95% CI, 67.2%-71.1%]; difference, 13.4% [95% CI, 9.0%-17.8%]), while prevalence of healthy weight decreased from 33.1% (95% CI, 30.5%-35.6%) to 24.6% (95% CI, 22.6%-26.7%; difference, -8.4% [95% CI, -11.8% to -5.1%]) (all P < .001 for trend). Meanwhile, there was no significant trend in moderate or lighter alcohol consumption. Overall, the estimated prevalence of at least 4 healthy lifestyle factors increased from 15.7% (95% CI, 12.8%-18.7%) to 20.3% (95% CI, 17.8%-22.7%; difference, 4.5% [95% CI, 0.7%-8.4%]; P < .001 for trend). Disparities in healthy lifestyle were widened by age group, with little improvement among adults 65 years and older (difference, 0.04% [95% CI, -4.28% to 4.35%]). There were persistent disparities in healthy lifestyle by race and ethnicity, educational level, and income level. Conclusions and Relevance The findings of this cross-sectional study of NHANES data over a 22-year period suggest diverse change patterns across 5 healthy lifestyle factors and a modest improvement in overall lifestyle existed among US adults, with worsening or persistent disparities in lifestyle.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To examine if individual-level and area-level socioeconomic status (SES) modifies the association of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA), domain-specific physical activity and sedentary behaviour with all-cause mortality (ACM) and incident cardiovascular disease (CVD). METHODS We used self-reported (International Physical Activity Questionnaire short form) and accelerometer-measured physical activity and sedentary behaviour data from the UK Biobank. We created an individual-level composite SES index using latent class analysis of household income, education and employment status. The Townsend Index was the measure of area-level SES. Cox proportional hazards regression models stratified across SES were used. RESULTS In 328 228 participants (mean age 55.9 (SD 8.1) years, 45% men) with an average follow-up of 12.1 (1.4) years, 18 033 deaths and 98 922 incident CVD events occurred. We found an increased ACM risk of low physical activity and high sedentary behaviour and an increased incident CVD risk of low accelerometer-measured moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (ACCEL_MVPA) and high sitting time. We observed statistically significant interactions for all exposures in ACM analyses by individual-level SES (p<0.05) but only for screen time in area-level SES-ACM analysis (p<0.001). Compared with high self-reported moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (IPAQ_MVPA), adjusted ACM HRs for low IPAQ_MVPA were 1.14 (95% CI 1.05 to .25), 1.15 (95% CI 1.06 to 1.24) and 1.22 (95% CI 1.13 to 1.31) in high, medium and low individual-level SES, respectively. There were higher detrimental associations of low ACCEL_MVPA with decreasing area-level SES for both outcomes and of high screen time with ACM in low area-level SES. CONCLUSION We found modest evidence suggesting that the detrimental associations of low MVPA and high screen time with ACM and incident CVD are accentuated in low SES groups.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Whether diabetes and genetic susceptibility of kidney diseases modifies the relationship between ultra-processed foods (UPF) consumption and incident chronic kidney disease (CKD) remains uncertain. We aimed to investigate the association between UPF consumption and new-onset CKD in participants with and without diabetes, and explore whether genetic risks of kidney diseases may modify the association. METHODS 153,985 participants who were free of CKD at baseline and provided 24-h dietary recalls in the UK Biobank were included. UPF was defined according to the NOVA classification. The energy contribution of UPF was calculated by dividing the energy intake of UPF by the total energy intake. The study outcome was new-onset CKD, ascertained by self-report data and data linkage with primary care, hospital admissions, and death registry records. RESULTS During a median follow-up of 12.1 years, 4,058 participants developed new-onset CKD. There was a significant positive association between UPF consumption and new-onset CKD in total participants (per 10% increment, adjusted hazard ratio (HR) 1.04; 95% confidence interval (CI) [1.01;1.06]. The positive association between UPF consumption and risk of new-onset CKD was significantly stronger in participants with diabetes (per 10% increment, adjusted HR 1.11 [1.05;1.17]) than in those without diabetes (per 10% increment, adjusted HR 1.03 [1.00;1.05]; P-interaction = 0.005). Genetic risks of kidney diseases did not significantly modify the positive association in those with or without diabetes (all P-interactions > 0.05). CONCLUSION There was a significantly stronger positive association between UPF consumption and new-onset CKD in participants with diabetes compared with those without diabetes.

Abstract
OBJECT Malnutrition negatively affects patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). This study aimed to explore the potential association between malnutrition, as defined by the Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index (GNRI), and all-cause mortality in patients with COPD using the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). METHOD The data of 579 adults with COPD during NHANES 2013-2018 were analysed. Each patient was assigned to one of the two groups according to GNRI values: normal nutritional status (GNRI>98) and malnutrition status (GNRI≤98). Survival curves and Cox regressions were applied to evaluate the association between nutritional status and mortality. RESULTS Overall, the mean age was 63.4±0.5 years, and 53.9% of the patients were women. The prevalence of malnutrition was 6.6%, and the Kaplan-Meier curves for all-cause mortality according to nutritional status showed that malnutrition was associated with a higher incidence of all-cause mortality. The Cox regression analysis found that in the unadjusted model, the HR was 2.30 (95% CI 1.24 to 4.27, p=0.01). In the fully adjusted model, the adjusted HR was 2.47 (95% CI 1.36 to 4.5, p=0.003). Furthermore, subgroup analysis revealed that the risk of death due to malnutrition increased more than threefold in the low education and cancer subgroups. CONCLUSION A low GNRI was an independent risk factor for all-cause mortality in patients with COPD.

Abstract
Lifestyle has been linked to the incidence of heart failure, but the underlying biological mechanisms remain unclear. Using the metabolomic, lifestyle, and heart failure data of the UK Biobank, we identified and validated healthy lifestyle-related metabolites in a matched case-control and cohort study, respectively. We then evaluated the association of healthy lifestyle-related metabolites with heart failure (HF) risk and the added predictivity of these healthy lifestyle-associated metabolites for HF. Of 161 metabolites, 8 were identified to be significantly related to healthy lifestyle. Notably, omega-3 fatty acids and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) positively associated with a healthy lifestyle score (HLS) and exhibited a negative association with heart failure risk. Conversely, creatinine negatively associated with a HLS, but was positively correlated with the risk of HF. Adding these three metabolites to the classical risk factor prediction model, the prediction accuracy of heart failure incidence can be improved as assessed by the C-statistic (increasing from 0.806 [95% CI, 0.796-0.816] to 0.844 [95% CI, 0.834-0.854], p-value < 0.001). A healthy lifestyle is associated with significant metabolic alterations, among which metabolites related to healthy lifestyle may be critical for the relationship between healthy lifestyle and HF. Healthy lifestyle-related metabolites might enhance HF prediction, but additional validation studies are necessary.

Abstract
The molecular subtypes of colorectal cancer (CRC) represent a comprehensive dissection of CRC heterogeneity. However, molecular feature-based classification systems have limitations in accurately prognosticating stratification due to the inability to distinguish cancer-specific deaths. This study aims to establish a classification system that bridges clinical characteristics, cause-specific deaths, and molecular features. We adopted latent class analysis (LCA) on 491,107 first primary CRC patients from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database to reveal hidden profiles of CRC. The LCA-derived classification scheme was further applied to The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) to assess its effectiveness in improving the accurate stratification of molecular-based subtypes of CRC. Four classes were identified based on latent class analysis integrating demographic and clinicopathological information of CRC patients. The LCA-derived Class 1 (LCAC1) and the LCAC2 showed a high risk of dying from non-CRC, while patients in LCAC3 had a risk of dying from CRC 1.41 times that of LCAC1 (95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.39-1.43). LCAC4 had the lowest probability to die from non-CRC (hazard ratio [HR] = 0.22, 95% CI = 0.21-0.24) compared with LCAC1. Since the LCA-derived classification can identify patients susceptible to CRC-specific death, adjusting for this classification allows molecular-based subtypes to achieve more accurate survival stratification. We provided a classification system capable of distinguish CRC-specific death, which will improve the accuracy of consensus molecular subtypes for CRC patients' survival stratification. Further studies are warranted to confirm the molecular features of LCA-derived classification to inform potential therapeutic strategies and treatment recommendations.

Vallée A. Association between socio-economic status and estimated atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease risk: results from a middle-aged population-based study. Public Health 2023; 221:1-9. [PMID: 37331308 DOI: 10.1016/j.puhe.2023.05.014] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/28/2022] [Revised: 04/30/2023] [Accepted: 05/13/2023] [Indexed: 06/20/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES The association between cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk and socio-economic status (SES) remains poorly studied. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between SES and estimated 10-year atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) risk among the general UK Biobank population. STUDY DESIGN This was a population-based study. METHODS Among 311,928 volunteers (47.7% men) of the UK Biobank population, SES was assessed by a questionnaire, and ASCVD risk was calculated using pooled cohort equation models. Associations between SES and ASCVD risk were estimated using multiple gender-specific regressions. RESULTS The findings from this study showed that men had higher estimated 10-year ASCVD risk than women (8.6% vs 2.7%; P < 0.001), higher education level (38.3% vs 36.2%; P < 0.001), higher income level (31.0% vs 25.1%; P < 0.001), higher levels of employment (65.4% vs 60.5%; P < 0.001) and higher scores of Townsend deprivation (P < 0.001). Using the multiple logistic regression model, a decreased 10-year ASCVD risk in men was associated with high income level (odds ratio [OR] = 0.64 [95% confidence interval {CI} 0.61-0.68]; P < 0.001), high educational level (OR = 0.71 [95% CI 0.68-0.74]; P < 0.001), higher Townsend deprivation quintile (OR = 0.81 [95% CI 0.78-0.85]; P < 0.001) and employed status (OR = 0.74 [95% CI 0.69-0.80]; P < 0.001). The same results were observed in women, with high income level (OR = 0.68 [95% CI 0.55-0.68]; P < 0.001), high educational level (OR = 0.87 [95% CI 0.82-0.93]; P < 0.001), higher Townsend deprivation quintile (OR = 0.74 [95% CI 0.69-0.80]; P < 0.001) and employed status (OR = 0.53 [95% CI 0.45-0.63]; P < 0.001) being associated with a lower 10-year ASCVD risk. When considering the false discovery rate logworth analysis, SES factors presented a similar contribution to CVD risk as lifestyle factors. CONCLUSIONS Health policies should consider the SES factors identified in this study, in addition to traditional risk factors, when designing prevention campaigns for CVD. Further research is required to improve the ASCVD risk prediction models among different SES variables.

Adverse childhood experiences, unhealthy lifestyle, and nonsuicidal self-injury: findings from six universities in Shaanxi province, China. Front Public Health 2023; 11:1199882. [PMID: 37397740 PMCID: PMC10308309 DOI: 10.3389/fpubh.2023.1199882] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/04/2023] [Accepted: 05/18/2023] [Indexed: 07/04/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Nonsuicidal self-injury (NSSI) is a serious public health problem. The role of adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and lifestyle on the risk for NSSI is still underexplored, especially among college students. We aimed to investigate the association of ACEs with the risk of NSSI, and effect modifications by lifestyle among college students. Methods A total of 18,723 college students from six universities were recruited through a multistage, random cluster sampling method in Shaanxi province, China. The Adverse Childhood Experiences International Questionnaire was used to assess ACEs for each participant, and the Chinese version of the Ottawa Self-injury Inventory was used to assess the presence or absence of NSSI behaviors. Information about lifestyle was collected by a self-designed questionnaire. The associations of NSSI with ACEs and lifestyle were analyzed using logistic regression models. Furthermore, we constructed a combination score of multiple lifestyles and evaluated whether lifestyle modified the effect of ACEs on the risk of NSSI. Results The prevalence of NSSI for the past 1 month, 6 months, and 12 months was 3.8, 5.3, and 6.5%, respectively. 82.6% of participants have reported experiencing at least one type of ACEs, and participants with higher levels of ACEs (≥4) were more likely to have higher odds of developing NSSI during the past 1 month (OR, 4.10; 95%CI, 3.38-4.97), 6 months (OR, 4.76; 95%CI, 4.03-5.62), and 12 months (OR, 5.62; 95%CI, 4.83-6.55), as compared with participants with low levels of ACEs (0-1). There were additive interactions between ACEs and lifestyle. Compared with participants with low levels of ACEs and healthy lifestyle, participants with high levels of ACEs and unhealthy lifestyle had the highest odds of NSSI during the past 1 month (OR, 5.56; 95%CI, 3.80-8.31), 6 months (OR, 6.62; 95%CI, 4.73-9.42), and 12 months (OR, 7.62; 95%CI, 5.59-10.52). Conclusion These results suggest that ACEs play an important role in the occurrence of NSSI among college students, especially in those with unhealthy lifestyle. Our findings may help develop targeted intervention strategies for the prevention of NSSI.

Genomic approaches to identify and investigate genes associated with atrial fibrillation and heart failure susceptibility. Hum Genomics 2023; 17:47.

Abstract
Atrial fibrillation (AF) and heart failure (HF) contribute to about 45% of all cardiovascular disease (CVD) deaths in the USA and around the globe. Due to the complex nature, progression, inherent genetic makeup, and heterogeneity of CVDs, personalized treatments are believed to be critical. To improve the deciphering of CVD mechanisms, we need to deeply investigate well-known and identify novel genes that are responsible for CVD development. With the advancements in sequencing technologies, genomic data have been generated at an unprecedented pace to foster translational research. Correct application of bioinformatics using genomic data holds the potential to reveal the genetic underpinnings of various health conditions. It can help in the identification of causal variants for AF, HF, and other CVDs by moving beyond the one-gene one-disease model through the integration of common and rare variant association, the expressed genome, and characterization of comorbidities and phenotypic traits derived from the clinical information. In this study, we examined and discussed variable genomic approaches investigating genes associated with AF, HF, and other CVDs. We collected, reviewed, and compared high-quality scientific literature published between 2009 and 2022 and accessible through PubMed/NCBI. While selecting relevant literature, we mainly focused on identifying genomic approaches involving the integration of genomic data; analysis of common and rare genetic variants; metadata and phenotypic details; and multi-ethnic studies including individuals from ethnic minorities, and European, Asian, and American ancestries. We found 190 genes associated with AF and 26 genes linked to HF. Seven genes had implications in both AF and HF, which are SYNPO2L, TTN, MTSS1, SCN5A, PITX2, KLHL3, and AGAP5. We listed our conclusion, which include detailed information about genes and SNPs associated with AF and HF.

Lancet Public Health 2023; 8:e422-e431. [PMID: 37244672 DOI: 10.1016/s2468-2667(23)00081-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 37] [Impact Index Per Article: 37.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/30/2023] [Revised: 03/15/2023] [Accepted: 04/14/2023] [Indexed: 05/29/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Racial and ethnic disparities in mortality persist in the US population. We studied the contribution of social determinants of health (SDoH) to racial and ethnic disparities in premature death. METHODS A nationally representative sample of individuals aged 20-74 years who participated in the US National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) between 1999 and 2018 were included. Self-reported SDoH (employment, family income, food security, education, access to health care, health insurance, housing instability, and being married or living with a partner) were collected in each survey cycle. Participants were categorised into four groups of race and ethnicity: Black, Hispanic, White, and other. Deaths were ascertained from linkage to the National Death Index with follow-up until 2019. Multiple mediation analysis was used to assess simultaneous contributions of each individual SDoH to racial disparities in premature all-cause mortality. FINDINGS We included 48 170 NHANES participants in our analyses, consisting of 10 543 (21·9%) Black participants, 13 211 (27·4%) Hispanic participants, 19 629 (40·7%) White participants, and 4787 (9·9%) participants of other racial and ethnic groups. Mean survey-weighted age was 44·3 years (95% CI 44·0-44·6), 51·3% (50·9-51·8) of participants were women, and 48·7% (48·2-49·1) were men. 3194 deaths before age 75 years were recorded (930 Black participants, 662 Hispanic participants, 1453 White participants, and 149 other participants). Black adults had significantly higher premature mortality than other racial and ethnic groups (p<0·0001): premature death rates per 100 000 person-years were 852 (95% CI 727-1000) for Black adults, 445 (349-574) for Hispanic adults, 546 (474-630) for White adults, and 521 (336-821) for other adults. Unemployment, lower family income, food insecurity, less than high school education, no private health insurance, and not being married nor living with a partner were significantly and independently associated with premature death. Dose-response associations were observed between cumulative number of unfavourable SDoH and premature all-cause mortality: hazard ratios (HRs) were 1·93 (95% CI 1·61-2·31) for those with one unfavourable SDoH, 2·24 (1·87-2·68) for those with two, 3·98 (3·34-4·73) for those with three, 4·78 (3·98-5·74) for those with four, 6·08 (5·06-7·31) for those with five, and 7·82 (6·60-9·26) for those with six or more unfavourable SDoH (p<0·0001 for linear trend). After adjusting for SDoH, HRs for premature all-cause mortality for Black adults compared with White adults decreased from 1·59 (1·44-1·76) to 1·00 (0·91-1·10), suggesting complete mediation of this racial difference in mortality. INTERPRETATION Unfavourable SDoH are associated with increased rates of premature death and contribute to differences between Black and White racial groups in premature all-cause mortality in the US population. Innovative public health policies and interventions targeting SDoH are needed to reduce premature deaths and health disparities in this population. FUNDING US National Institutes of Health.

Promotion of Healthy Lifestyles Alone Might Not Substantially Reduce Socioeconomic Inequity-Related Mortality Risk in Older People in China: A Prospective Cohort Study.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Whether healthy lifestyles mediate the association of socioeconomic status (SES) with mortality in older people is largely unknown. METHODS A total of 22,093 older participants (age ≥ 65 years) from 5 waves (2002-2014) of Chinese Longitudinal Healthy Longevity Survey cohort were included for analysis. Mediation analysis of lifestyles on the association of SES with all-cause mortality was conducted. RESULTS During a mean follow-up period of 4.92 ± 4.03 years, 15,721 (71.76%) deaths occurred. Compared with high SES, medium SES increased the risk of mortality by 13.5% (HR [total effect]: 1.135, 95% CI 1.067-1.205, p < 0.001), and the total effect was not mediated by healthy lifestyles (mediation proportion: - 0.1%, 95% CI - 3.8 to 3.3%, p = 0.936). The total effect when participants of low SES were compared with participants of high SES was HR = 1.161 (95% CI 1.088-1.229, p < 0.001) for mortality, and the total effect was modestly mediated through healthy lifestyles (mediation proportion: - 8.9%, 95% CI - 16.6 to - 5.1%, p < 0.001). Stratification analyses by sex, age and comorbidities, as well as a series of sensitivity analyses indicated similar results. In addition, mortality risk showed a downward trend with increased number of healthy lifestyles within each SES level (all p for trend < 0.050). CONCLUSION Promotion of healthy lifestyles alone can only reduce a small proportion of socioeconomic inequity-related mortality risk in older Chinese people. Even so, healthy lifestyles are important in reducing the overall mortality risk within each SES level.

Trends in unhealthy lifestyle factors in US NHANES respondents with cardiovascular disease for the period between 1999 and 2018. Front Cardiovasc Med 2023; 10:1169036. [PMID: 37273875 PMCID: PMC10235541 DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2023.1169036] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/18/2023] [Accepted: 04/24/2023] [Indexed: 06/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Objectives To examine national trends in unhealthy lifestyle factors among adults with cardiovascular disease (CVD) in the United States (US) between 1999 and 2018. Methods We analyzed data from National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES), a nationally representative survey of participants with CVD who were aged ≥20 years, which was conducted between 1999 and 2000 and 2017-2018. CVD was defined as a self-report of congestive heart failure, coronary heart disease, angina, heart attack, or stroke. The prevalence rate of each unhealthy lifestyle factor was calculated among adults with CVD for each of the 2-year cycle surveys. Regression analyses were used to assess the impact of sociodemographic characteristics (age, sex, race/ethnicity, family income, education level, marital status, and employment status). Results The final sample included 5610 NHANES respondents with CVD. The prevalence rate of their current smoking status remained stable among respondents with CVD between 1999 and 2000 and 2017-2018. During the same period, there was a decreasing trend in the age-adjusted prevalence rate of poor diet [primary American Heart Association (AHA) score <20; 47.5% (37.9%-57.0%) to 37.5% (25.7%-49.3%), p < 0.01]. Physical inactivity marginally increased before decreasing, with no statistical significance. The prevalence rate of sedentary behavior increased from 2007 to 2014 but subsequently returned to its original level in 2018 with no statistical significance. The age-adjusted prevalence rate of obesity increased from 32% (27.2%-36.8%) in 1999-2000 to 47.9% (39.9%-55.8%) in 2017-2018 (p < 0.001). The age-adjusted prevalence rate of depression increased from 7% (4.2%-9.9%) in 1999-2000 to 13.9% (10.2%-17.6%) in 2017-2018 (p = 0.056). Trends in mean for each unhealthy lifestyle factor were similar after adjustment for age. We found that respondents who had low education and income levels were at a higher risk of being exposed to unhealthy lifestyle factors (i.e., smoking, poor diet, and physical inactivity) than those who had high education and income levels. Conclusions There is a significant reduction in the prevalence rate of poor diet among US adults with CVD between 1999 and 2018, while the prevalence rate of obesity showed increasing trends over this period. The prevalence rate of current smoking status, sedentary behavior, and depression was either stable or showed an insignificant increase. These findings suggest that there is an urgent need for health policy interventions targeting unhealthy lifestyles among adults with CVD.
