Importance Tobacco smoking is associated with increased risk of various cancers, and cessation has been reduced cancer risks, but it still unclear how many years are required to significantly reduce the risk. Therefore, investigating association essential. Objective To investigate time course according elapsed since benefits age at quitting. Design, Setting, Participants This population-based, retrospective cohort study included Korean participants aged 30 older who underwent 2 or more...
Endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) may play a role in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD); however, studies on the combined effects of EDC mixtures NAFLD development are limited. Here, we explored association between exposure to and investigated potential mediating metabolic syndrome (MetS). We included participants from Korean National Environmental Health Survey Cycle 4 (2018-2020) quantified urinary concentrations various EDCs-eight phthalate metabolites, three phenols, one...
The MOCEH study is a prospective hospital- and community-based cohort designed to collect information related environmental exposures (chemical, biological, nutritional, physical, psychosocial) during pregnancy childhood examine how exposure pollutants affects growth, development, disease. network includes one coordinating center, four local centers responsible for recruiting pregnant women, evaluation (a nutrition bio-repository neurocognitive development environment assessment center). At...
No safe threshold level of lead exposure in children has been recognized. Also, the information on shielding effect maternal dietary iron intake during pregnancy adverse effects prenatal children's postnatal neurocognitive development is very limited. We examined association and neurodevelopment at 6, 12, 24, 36 months protective action against impact exposure. The study participants comprise 965 pregnant women their subsequent offspring total enrolled Mothers Children's environmental health...
Recent studies suggest that high pre-diagnostic serum concentrations of persistent organic pollutants (POPs) might result in the development cancers general population. However, association between POP and lung cancer risk has not been studied. Here, we evaluated associations low-dose environmental exposure to POPs using samples a case-cohort study based on population-based prospective cohort. We conducted Korean National Cancer Center Community Cohort, from which included 118 cases 252...
Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects PM10 on birth outcomes using a prospective cohort pregnant women. Methods: multicenter conducted in Korea from 2001 2004. To estimate exposure outcomes, logistic and linear regression model generalized additive for nonlinear relationships were used. Results: Stillbirths affected by level during third trimesters (OR = 1.10, 95% CI 1.02–1.14), defects influenced second 1.16, 1.00–1.34). Intrauterine growth retardation first...
The Mothers and Children's Environmental Health study (MOCEH) is a multi-centric prospective birth cohort investigating effects of various environmental pollutants like heavy metals, endocrine disruptors, air pollutants, nutrition lifestyle on outcomes, growth development, health disease children. In this study, we report all the outcomes from MOCEH describing different affecting children's disease.In 1,751 pregnant women in their first trimester were recruited at 3 centers 2006 to 2010...
OBJECTIVESGender is a major determinant of health behaviors that influences cancer prevention awareness and practices. This study investigated the relationship practice rates recommendations with gender socioeconomic status. METHODSWe used data from Korean National Cancer Prevention Awareness Practice Survey (2023). The sample included 4,000 men women aged 20-74 years. We conducted multiple logistic regression analyses to evaluate associations practices prevention, joinpoint analysis using...
As healthy living becomes crucial for cancer survivors, discussing the health risk behaviors of male who are more prone to such behaviors, is essential. This study compared health-related and obesity among survivors general population in Korea. cross-sectional, matched case–control used data from Korea National Health Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES). Of 11,760 participants, 349 1,047 controls were by propensity scores. Logistic regression evaluated differences BMI, smoking, alcohol...
This study examined the influence of knowledge and attitudes on smoking cessation behaviors among Koreans—including both individuals who have quit those continue to smoke—using an extended KAP (knowledge, attitude, practice) model. Data for this were drawn from Korean National Cancer Prevention Awareness Practice Survey conducted between 2014 2023, encompassing 12,400 participants. After excluding responses lacking data questions had never smoked, final analytic sample comprised 4,794 To...
Abstract Background The impact of changes in physical activity (PA) post-cancer diagnosis on prognosis remains unclear. This study evaluated mortality risks according to PA from pre-diagnosis post-diagnosis among cancer survivors. Methods population-based retrospective cohort used the Korean National Health Insurance Service database. included 215,191 participants (125,756 men and 89,435 women) diagnosed with between 2009−2017. PA, measured as total various light-, moderate-, vigorous-...
Previous studies have identified a link between gender and the various risk factors associated with obesity. We examined obesity in working adults to identify effects of differences body mass index (BMI) percentage fat (PBF) women men.A total 1,120 agreed participate study. Data from 711 participants, including 411 300 men, were analyzed. Multiple logistic regression analysis was used estimate on being overweight. In addition, least-squares (LS) means both BMI PBF estimated by covariance...
Abstract The triglyceride glucose (TyG) index was suggested as a novel reliable surrogate marker for insulin resistance and related cardiovascular-metabolic diseases. We aimed to evaluate the association between TyG environmental exposure lead (Pb), mercury (Hg), cadmium (Cd). A total of 9645 adults who enrolled in Korea National Health Nutrition Examination Survey 2005, 2008–2013, 2016 were included. Fasting plasma levels used calculate index. Multivariate logistic regression model estimate...
