[PMID: 39413883 DOI: 10.1016/j.jad.2024.10.037] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/25/2024] [Revised: 10/07/2024] [Accepted: 10/09/2024] [Indexed: 10/18/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Limited research has examined the association between the number of live births and bipolar disorder and major depression (BDMD). This study aims to investigate the relationship between the number of live births and BDMD among women in the UK, providing a theoretical basis for reproductive decision-making. METHODS This cross-sectional study utilized data from >55,000 women in the UK Biobank. Inverse probability treatment weighting (IPTW) logistic regression models were employed to reduce bias and confounding. Multivariate logistic regression was applied to examine the relationship between live births and BDMD, while restricted cubic spline regression was utilized to analyze the nonlinear association between the number of live births and BDMD. Subgroup analyses were conducted, stratifying by age, BMI, spontaneous abortion, induced abortion, and spontaneous abortion. RESULTS The IPTW-multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that live births serve as an independent protective factor against BDMD. In IPTW-multivariate Model 4, the odds ratio (OR) for the live births group was 0.71 (95 % CI 0.69-0.73, P < 0.001). A significant nonlinear relationship was identified between the number of live births and the risk of BDMD. Additionally, it was found that women with two live births exhibited the lowest risk of BDMD. CONCLUSION Our study demonstrated that live births are an independent protective factor against BDMD. This research holds particular significance in the context of globally declining fertility rates and the increasing prevalence of mental disorders. It provides guidance for women on fertility decisions amid declining global fertility rates and increasing mental health issues.

Abstract
AIM To investigate the relationship between the weight-adjusted-waist index (WWI) and all-cause mortality as well as cardiovascular mortality in individuals with type 2 diabetes. METHODS We used data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) from 1999 to 2018 and the UK Biobank database. Restricted cubic spline curves and Cox proportional hazards models were employed to assess hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for all-cause mortality. RESULTS In the UK Biobank database, compared with the lowest WWI quartile, the HR for all-cause and cardiovascular death in the highest quartile was 1.846 (95% CI 1.687-2.019) and 2.118 (95% CI 1.783-2.517), respectively, in the fully adjusted model. In the NHANES database, compared with the lowest WWI quartile, the highest quartile had an HR of 1.727 (95% CI 1.378-2.163) for all-cause death and 1.719 (95% CI 1.139-2.595) for cardiovascular death in the fully adjusted model. CONCLUSIONS Our study indicates that WWI has a long-term synergistic negative impact on all-cause mortality and cardiovascular mortality in individuals with type 2 diabetes. The WWI is an independent predictor of mortality in individuals with type 2 diabetes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative influenced by various clinical factors. The potential relationship between renal function and the risk of PD remains poorly understood. This study aims to explore the association between kidney function and the risk of developing PD. METHODS A population-based cohort study was conducted using data from 400,571 UK Biobank participants. Renal function was assessed using the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), calculated from serum creatinine and cystatin C levels. The association between eGFR levels and PD risk was evaluated using univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses, Restricted Cubic Spline (RCS) analysis, and Kaplan-Meier analysis. Additionally, a clinical prediction model was developed and its diagnostic accuracy was evaluated using ROC analysis. A heatmap was also constructed to examine the relationship between clinical factors and gray matter volume in various brain regions. RESULTS Over a median observation period of 13.8 years, 2740 PD events were recorded. Cox regression and Kaplan-Meier analyses revealed a significant association between decreased eGFR and increased PD risk, particularly in participants with eGFR < 30 ml/min/1.73 m2. This association was confirmed across three adjusted models. RCS analysis demonstrated a nonlinear relationship between decreasing eGFR and increasing PD risk. Furthermore, changes in eGFR were correlated with alterations in subcortical gray matter volume in regions such as the frontal cortex, striatum, and cerebellum. The clinical prediction model showed high diagnostic accuracy with AUC values of 0.776, 0.780, and 0.824 for 4-, 8-, and 16-year predictions, respectively. CONCLUSION Renal insufficiency is significantly associated with an increased risk of PD, highlighting the importance of maintaining good kidney function as a potential preventive measure against PD.

Abstract
Background and Objectives Telomere length (TL) has been acknowledged as biomarker of biological aging. Numerous investigations have examined associations between individual early life factors and leukocyte TL; however, the findings were far from consistent. Research Design and Methods We evaluated the relationship between individual and combined early life factors and leukocytes TL in middle and late life using data from the UK Biobank. The early life factors (eg, maternal smoking, breastfeeding, birth weight, and comparative body size and height to peers at age 10) were measured. The regression coefficients (β) and 95% confidence interval (CI) were applied to assess the link of the early life factors and TL in adulthood. Flexible parametric survival models incorporated age to calculate the relationship between early life factors and life expectancy. Results Exposure to maternal smoking, lack of breastfeeding, low birth weight, and shorter height compared to peers at age 10 were identified to be associated with shorter TL in middle and older age according to the large population-based study with 197 504 participants. Individuals who experienced more than 3 adverse early life factors had the shortest TL in middle and late life (β = -0.053; 95% CI = -0.069 to -0.038; p < .0001), as well as an average of 0.54 years of life loss at the age of 45 and 0.49 years of life loss at the age of 60, compared to those who were not exposed to any early life risk factors. Discussion and Implications Early life factors including maternal smoking, non-breastfed, low birth weight, and shorter height compared to peers at age 10 were associated with shorter TL in later life. In addition, an increased number of the aforementioned factors was associated with a greater likelihood of shorter TL in adulthood, as well as a reduced life expectancy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Few studies have explored the association between the number of SAs and bipolar disorder and major depression (BDMD). This study aims to investigate the association between SA and BDMD, and the possible dose-response relationship between them. METHODS We conducted a cross-sectional study of 13,200 female UK Biobank participants. Participants were classified into BDMD and no-BDMD groups based on their BDMD status. The number of SAs was grouped into non-SA, occasional SA (OSA), and recurrent SA (RSA). Baseline characteristics of the three groups were balanced using inverse probability treatment weighting (IPTW) based on propensity scores. The three-knots restricted cubic spline regression model was utilized to assess the dose-response relationship between the number of SAs and BDMD. RESULTS The IPTW-adjusted multivariate logistic regression revealed that SA was an independent risk factor for BDMD, with adjusted OR of 1.12 (95 % CI: 1.07-1.19) and 1.32 (95 % CI: 1.25-1.40) in the OSA and RSA groups, respectively. The strength of this association amplified as the number of SAs (P for trend <0.001). There was a nonlinear relationship between the number of SAs and the risk of BDMD, with an approximately inverted L-shaped curve. LIMITATIONS The information of the SA and BDMD status relied on self-reported by volunteers, and the study sample was mostly of European descent. CONCLUSIONS Women who reported experiencing multiple SAs are more likely to have BDMD. Therefore, it is imperative to provide psychological care and interventions for women in the postpartum period.

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
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
Patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD) are markedly increasing as population aging and no disease-modifying therapies are currently available for AD. Previous studies suggested a broad link between socioeconomic status and a variety of disorders, including mental illness and cognitive abilities. However, the association between socioeconomic deprivation and AD has been unknown. We here employed Townsend deprivation index (TDI) to explore such relation and found a positive genetic correlation (r̂g=0.211, P = 8.00 × 10-4) between the two traits with summary statistics data (N = 455,258 for TDI and N = 455,815 for AD). Then, we performed pleiotropy analysis at both variant and gene levels using a powerful method called PLACO and detected 87 distinct pleiotropic genes. Functional analysis demonstrated these genes were significantly enriched in pancreas, liver, heart, blood, brain, and muscle tissues. Using Mendelian randomization methods, we further found that one genetically predicted standard deviation elevation in TDI could lead to approximately 18.5% (95% confidence intervals 1.6- 38.2%, P = 0.031) increase of AD risk, and that the identified causal association was robust against used MR approaches, horizontal pleiotropy, and instrumental selection. Overall, this study provides deep insight into common genetic components underlying TDI and AD, and further reveals causal connection between them. It is also helpful to develop a more suitable plan for ameliorating inequities, hardship, and disadvantage, with the hope of improving health outcomes among economically disadvantaged people.

Replacement of leisure-time sedentary behavior with various physical activities and the risk of dementia incidence and mortality: A prospective cohort study. JOURNAL OF SPORT AND HEALTH SCIENCE 2022; 12:287-294. [PMID: 36379419 DOI: 10.1016/j.jshs.2022.11.005] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/12/2022] [Revised: 08/17/2022] [Accepted: 10/12/2022] [Indexed: 11/15/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Whether or not there is targeted pharmacotherapy for dementia, an active and healthy lifestyle that includes physical activity (PA) may be a better option than medication for preventing dementia. We examined the association between leisure-time sedentary behavior (SB) and the risk of dementia incidence and mortality. We further quantified the effect on dementia risk of replacing sedentary time with an equal amount of time spent on different physical activities. METHODS In the UK Biobank, 484,169 participants (mean age 56.5 years; 45.2% men) free of dementia were followed from baseline (2006-2010) through July 30, 2021. A standard questionnaire measured individual leisure-time SB (watching TV, computer use, and driving) and PA (walking for pleasure, light and heavy do-it-yourself activity, strenuous sports, and other exercise) frequency and duration in the 4 weeks prior to evaluation. Apolipoprotein E (APOE) genotype data were available for a subset of 397,519 (82.1%) individuals. A Cox proportional hazard model and an isotemporal substitution model were used in this study. RESULTS During a median 12.4 years of follow-up, 6904 all-cause dementia cases and 2115 deaths from dementia were recorded. In comparison to participants with leisure-time SB <5 h/day, the hazard ratio ((HR), 95% confidence interval (95%CI)) of dementia incidence was 1.07 (1.02-1.13) for 5-8 h/day and 1.25 (1.13-1.38) for >8 h/day, and the HR of dementia mortality was 1.35 (1.12-1.61) for >8 h/day. A 1 standard deviation increment of sedentary time (2.33 h/day) was strongly associated with a higher incidence of dementia and mortality (HR = 1.06, 95%CI: 1.03-1.08 and HR = 1.07, 95%CI: 1.03-1.12, respectively). The association between sedentary time and the risk of developing dementia was more profound in subjects <60 years than in those ≥60 years (HR = 1.26, 95%CI: 1.00-1.58 vs. HR =1.21, 95%CI: 1.08-1.35 in >8 h/day, p for interaction = 0.013). Replacing 30 min/day of leisure sedentary time with an equal time spent in total PA was associated with a 6% decreased risk and 9% decreased mortality from dementia, with exercise (e.g., swimming, cycling, aerobics, bowling) showing the strongest benefit (HR = 0.82, 95%CI: 0.78-0.86 and HR = 0.79, 95%CI: 0.72-0.86). Compared with APOE ε4 noncarriers, APOE ε4 carriers are more likely to see a decrease in Alzheimer's disease incidence and mortality when PA is substituted for SB. CONCLUSION Leisure-time SB was positively associated with the risk of dementia incidence and mortality. Replacing sedentary time with equal time spent doing PA may be associated with a significant reduction in dementia incidence and mortality risk.

Genetic risk, incident colorectal cancer, and the benefits of adhering to a healthy lifestyle: A prospective study using data from UK Biobank and FinnGen. Front Oncol 2022; 12:894086. [PMID: 36276143 PMCID: PMC9582975 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2022.894086] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/11/2022] [Accepted: 09/13/2022] [Indexed: 08/03/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Genetic factors increase the individual risk of colorectal cancer (CRC); however, the extent to which a healthy lifestyle can offset increased genetic risk is unknown. This study investigated whether a healthy lifestyle is associated with lower CRC risk, regardless of genetic risk. Methods We recruited 390,365 participants without cancer at baseline (2006-2010) from the UK Biobank. The primary outcome was CRC incidence. A healthy lifestyle score constructed using 16 factors of six dimensions (smoking, drinking, body mass index, diet, exercise, and sleep) was categorized into three risk categories: favorable, intermediate, and unfavorable. To calculate the polygenic risk scores (PRSs) of UK Biobank participants, we extracted 454,678 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) from the UK Biobank and FinnGen Biobank after quality control. Cox proportional hazards regression was performed to evaluate the associations and was expressed as hazard ratios (HRs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Results During a median follow-up of 10.90 years, 4,090 new CRC cases were reported in the UK Biobank. The "best-fit" PRSs were constructed using 59 SNPs based on the UK Biobank cohort and FinnGen genome-wide association study summary data (R2 = 0.23%) and were divided into low (lowest quintile), intermediate (including second-fourth quintile), and high (highest quintile) genetic risk categories. The multivariate-adjusted Cox model revealed that participants with favorable lifestyles had HRs of 0.66 (95% CI = 0.60-0.72) for developing CRC vs. those with unfavorable lifestyles; low genetic risk was associated with a decreased risk of CRC (HR = 0.67, 95% CI =0.61-0.74) compared with those with high genetic risk. The HRs for low genetic risk participants with favorable lifestyles were 0.44 (95% CI =0.36-0.55) vs. participants with high genetic risk and unfavorable lifestyles. Among the participants with low, intermediate, or high genetic risk, the HRs of favorable vs. unfavorable lifestyles were 0.74, 0.64, and 0.72 (all p< 0.05). Conclusions Low genetic risk and a favorable lifestyle were significantly associated with a decreased risk of CRC. A favorable lifestyle was associated with a lower CRC risk, regardless of genetic risk.

Wu E, Ni JT, Zhu ZH, Xu HQ, Tao L, Xie T. Association of a Healthy Lifestyle with All-Cause, Cause-Specific Mortality and Incident Cancer among Individuals with Metabolic Syndrome: A Prospective Cohort Study in UK Biobank. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH 2022; 19:9936. [PMID: 36011568 PMCID: PMC9408492 DOI: 10.3390/ijerph19169936] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/15/2022] [Revised: 08/07/2022] [Accepted: 08/10/2022] [Indexed: 05/10/2023]
Abstract
This study investigated the association between a healthy lifestyle with all-cause, cause-specific mortality, and cancer incidence among individuals with metabolic syndrome (MetS). Healthy lifestyle scores were created based on MetS management guidelines, including never/quitting smoking, moderate drinking, good sleep, healthy diet, sufficient exercise, social support, and less sedentary behaviour. Weighted healthy lifestyle scores were further constructed and classified into three groups: unfavourable (lowest quintile), intermediate (quintiles 2−4), and favourable (highest quintile) lifestyles. We included 87,342 MetS participants from the UK Biobank. Hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated using multivariate-adjusted Cox proportional hazards regression. During a median follow-up of 12.54 years, 6739 deaths were reported; during a median follow-up of 10.69 years, 10,802 new cancer cases were documented. We found a favourable lifestyle was inversely associated with all-cause mortality (HR: 0.57; 95%CI: 0.53−0.62), cause-specific mortality from respiratory disease, cancer, digestive disease, cardiovascular disease (HR < 1; p-trend < 0.001), and overall cancer incidence (HR: 0.84; 95% CI: 0.79−0.90). Our results indicate that adherence to healthy lifestyles is associated with lower overall cancer incidence and all-cause mortality risk among MetS individuals. However, causality cannot be made due to the nature of observational studies.

Abstract
The recent novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) outbreak, caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), is threatening global health. However, an understanding of the interaction of SARS-CoV-2 with human cells, including the physical docking property influenced by the host's genetic diversity, is still lacking. Here, based on germline variants in the UK Biobank covering 502,543 individuals, we revealed the molecular interactions between human angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (hACE2), which is the representative receptor for SARS-CoV-2 entry, and COVID-19 infection. We identified six nonsense and missense variants of hACE2 from 2585 subjects in the UK Biobank covering 500000 individuals. Using our molecular dynamics simulations, three hACE2 variants from 2585 individuals we selected showed higher levels of binding free energy for docking in the range of 1.44-3.69 kcal/mol. Although there are diverse contributors to SARS-CoV-2 infections, including the mobility of individuals, we analyzed the diagnosis records of individuals with these three variants of hACE2. Our molecular dynamics simulations combined with population-based genomic data provided an atomistic understanding of the interaction between hACE2 and the spike protein of SARS-CoV-2.
