Yu H, Li M, Yang B, Sun H, Jiang H, Liang Z, Smayi A, Wu B, Yang Y. Proton pump inhibitor use is associated with increased liver steatosis. Biomed Rep 2024; 21:116. [PMID: 38938738 PMCID: PMC11209865 DOI: 10.3892/br.2024.1804] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/12/2024] [Accepted: 05/24/2024] [Indexed: 06/29/2024] Open
Abstract
Despite proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) being generally safe, there are questions about their potential long-term complications. The present study aimed to investigate the association between PPI therapy and the incidence of hepatic steatosis and liver fibrosis in the outpatient population of the United States. The present study included 7,395 individuals aged ≥20 years who underwent hepatic vibration-controlled transient elastography (VCTE) examination. The data were obtained from the January 2017 to March 2020 pre-pandemic National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. Among the 7,395 adults who were included (mean age, 50.59 years; 3,656 male), 9.8% were prescribed PPIs. Following multivariable adjustment, the use of PPIs was significantly associated with hepatic steatosis [odds ratio (OR), 1.25; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.02-1.53]. Prolonged use of PPIs was found to increase the risk of developing hepatic steatosis over time (P=0.006). Sensitivity analyses using different definitions of hepatic steatosis, such as a controlled attenuation parameter ≥285 dB/m (OR, 1.19; CI, 1.01-1.40), non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (OR, 1.50; 95% CI, 1.16-1.93) and metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (OR, 1.26; 95% CI, 1.05-1.52), consistently demonstrated an association between PPI prescription and hepatic steatosis. The administration of PPI therapy was linked with hepatic steatosis in US adults, although no significant association was observed with liver stiffness, as determined by VCTE.

Liang L, Aris IM. Association between Age at First Birth and Long-Term Dental Caries Experience among Women in the United States. J Womens Health (Larchmt) 2024. [PMID: 38853662 DOI: 10.1089/jwh.2023.0846] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 06/11/2024] Open
Abstract
Background: Pregnant women are at a higher risk of caries compared to nonpregnant women, and higher parity is a risk factor for untreated caries and tooth loss. However, it is unknown whether the timing of birth is associated with dental caries experience over time. Materials and Methods: This study is a cross-sectional study using the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES), 2011-2018. The study population included nonpregnant women 20 years of age or older, who had available data on the oral health examination and age at first birth (AFB). Dental caries experience was defined as the DMFT score (sum of the number of decayed, missing due to caries, and filled permanent teeth). The associations between AFB and DMFT scores were assessed using Poisson regression to compute incidence rate ratios (IRRs) and the associated 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Results: This study included 6,553 women (mean age 53.4 years, SD 15.7). The mean DMFT index score was 13.1 ± 7.4, with younger AFB groups generally having higher mean scores. After adjusting for sociodemographic variables, time since last dental visit, and reproductive health factors, women with an AFB of <18 years (IRR, 1.10; 95% CI, 1.01-1.21) or 18-20 years (IRR, 1.11; 95% CI, 1.01-1.21) had significantly higher DMFT index scores compared to those with an AFB of 30-32 years. Conclusions: This study suggests that younger maternal AFB may be associated with greater dental caries experience. More rigorous studies are necessary to determine how to improve oral health outcomes during pregnancy and postpartum.

Abstract
Background Increasing observational studies have indicated that hormonal reproductive factors were associated with ovarian cyst, a common gynecological disease. A two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) was carried out by investigating the causality of reproductive factors including age at first birth (AFB), age at natural menopause (ANM), and age at menarche (AAM), and the risk of ovarian cyst (OC). Method Summary statistics were collected from a large genome-wide association study (GWAS), and we used a two-sample MR study to clarify the causal association between the exposure of AFB (N = 542,901), ANM (N = 69,360), and AAM (N = 29,346) and the outcome of the OC (N case = 20,750, N control = 107,564). We separately selected 51, 35, and 6 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) as instrumental variables (IVs) for assaying the influence of AFB, ANM, and AAM on OC, respectively. Then, the causal relationship was tested through multiple approaches including an inverse-variance weighted method, an MR-Egger regression, and a weighted median method. In addition, the MR-PRESSO method was also used to verify the horizontal pleiotropy. Subsequently, we adjust the confounders for MR design. Results The MR analysis results showed that AFB was negatively associated with the OC (IVW Beta: -0.09, OR: 0.91, 95% CI: 0.86-0.96, p = 0.00185), and the greater AAM decreased the risk of OC (IVW Beta: -0.10, OR: 0.91, 95% CI: 0.82-0.99, p = 0.0376). However, ANM has a positive correlation with the OC (IVW Beta: 0.05, OR: 1.05, 95% CI: 1.03-1.08, p = 8.38 × 10-6). After adjusting BMI, alcohol intake frequency, and ever smoked, we also obtained a negative relationship between AFB and OC (p < 0.005). Meanwhile, we adjusted weight, alcohol intake frequency, and height, and then found a causal relationship between older AMN and an increased risk of OC (p < 0.005). Conclusion A causal effect of reproductive factors on the development of OC, affected by AFB, ANM, and AAM, was found convincingly. After adjusting the confounders, we also successfully found the substantial causal effect of younger AFB, younger AAM, and older ANM on an increased risk of OC.

Abstract
AIM This study aimed to investigate the effects of repeated detection of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) on the incidence risk of type 2 diabetes in young adults. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this nationwide population-based observational study using data from the Korean National Health Insurance Service, approximately 1 125 015 young adults aged 20-39 years who underwent health screening four times between 2009 and 2013 were included. NAFLD was defined as a fatty liver index (FLI) of ≥60. Repeated detection of NAFLD scores was defined as the number of times the participants met the criteria for NAFLD (0-4). To account for the degree of repeated detection of NAFLD, weighted repeated NAFLD scores were scaled as a sum by assigning points (0 points for FLI <30, 1 point for 30 ≤ FLI < 60, and 2 points for FLI ≥60) ranging from 0 to 8 points. RESULTS The multivariable-adjusted hazard ratios of type 2 diabetes associated with repeated detection of NAFLD scores of 1, 2, 3 and 4 were 2.74 (95% confidence interval 2.57-2.921), 3.45 (3.221-3.694), 4.588 (4.303-4.892) and 6.126 (5.77-6.504), respectively. The incidence risk of type 2 diabetes increased significantly with repeated detection of the NAFLD score. In the analysis of the weighted repeated NAFLD score, the hazard ratios for the incidence of type 2 diabetes showed a significant continuous positive linear association with increasing scores. CONCLUSIONS Repeated detection of NAFLD influenced the incidence risk of type 2 diabetes in young adults, and a higher degree of repeated detection of NAFLD was independently associated with the risk of type 2 diabetes in young adults.

BMC Public Health 2023; 23:2306. [PMID: 37990201 PMCID: PMC10664376 DOI: 10.1186/s12889-023-17207-0] [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: 01/31/2023] [Accepted: 11/10/2023] [Indexed: 11/23/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Female reproductive factors such as age at first birth (AFB), age at last birth (ALB), number of pregnancies and live births play an essential role in women's health. However, few epidemiological studies have evaluated the association between female reproductive factors and metabolic syndrome (MetS). We therefore conducted a cross-sectional study to investigate the association between MetS risk and female reproductive factors. METHODS We investigated the relationship between AFB, ALB, number of pregnancies and live births and the incidence of MetS using publicly available data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) from 1999 to 2018. Weighted multivariable logistic regression analysis, restricted cubic spline (RCS) model, and subgroup analysis were used to evaluate the association between AFB and ALB and the risk of MetS in women. In addition, the relationship between the number of pregnancies, live births and MetS risk was also explored. RESULTS A total of 15,404 women were included in the study, and 5,983 (38.8%) had MetS. RCS models showed an N-shaped relationship between AFB and MetS risk, whereas ALB, number of pregnancies, and live births were linearly associated with MetS. Weighted multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that the number of live births was associated with MetS risk, with ORs of 1.18 (95% CI: 1.04, 1.35) for women with ≥ 5 deliveries compared to women with ≤ 2 births. CONCLUSIONS AFB was associated with the risk of MetS in an N-shaped curve in women. In addition, women with high live births have a higher incidence of MetS.

BMC Public Health 2023; 23:2286. [PMID: 37985986 PMCID: PMC10658943 DOI: 10.1186/s12889-023-17223-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/07/2023] [Accepted: 11/14/2023] [Indexed: 11/22/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Lifestyle change plays a crucial role in the prevention and treatment of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD). In recent years, diet soft drinks that emphasize "zero sugar and zero calories" have become all the rage, but whether diet soft drink consumption is associated with MASLD is not clear. METHODS This study included data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys (NHANES) in 2003-2006. The assessment of MASLD status primarily relied on the Fatty Liver Index (FLI). Weighted multiple Logistic regression models were constructed to evaluate the association between diet soft drink consumption and MASLD. Additionally, mediation analysis was performed to examine the mediating effect of body mass index (BMI). RESULTS A total of 2,378 participants were included in the study, among which 1,089 individuals had MASLD, and the weighted prevalence rate was 43.64%. After adjusting for variables related to demographic, lifestyle, and metabolic syndrome, excessive diet soft drink consumption (the "always" frequency) remained significantly associated with the occurrence of MASLD (OR = 1.98, 95%CI = 1.36-2.89, P = 0.003). It was estimated that 84.7% of the total association between diet soft drink consumption and MASLD was mediated by BMI (P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Excessive diet soft drink consumption was associated with the occurrence of MASLD. BMI may play a mediating role in the association between diet soft drink consumption and MASLD.
