Mothers' smoking during pregnancy increases asthma risk in their offspring. There is some evidence that grandmothers' may have a similar effect, and biological plausibility fathers' adolescence influence offspring's health through transmittable epigenetic changes sperm precursor cells. We evaluated the three-generation associations of tobacco with asthma. Between 2010 2013, at European Community Respiratory Health Survey III clinical interview, 2233 mothers 1964 fathers from 26 centres...
Objectives To explore the relationship between physical activity over a 10-year period and current symptoms of insomnia, daytime sleepiness estimated sleep duration in adults aged 39–67. Design Population-based, multicentre cohort study. Setting 21 centres nine European countries. Methods Included were 4339 participants third follow-up to Community Respiratory Health Survey (ECRHS III), who answered questions on at baseline II) activity, insomnia symptoms, III). Participants reported that...
Life course data on obesity may enrich the quality of epidemiologic studies analysing health consequences obesity. However, achieving such require substantial resources. We investigated use body silhouettes in adults as a tool to reflect past. used large population-based samples analyse what extent self-reported correlated with previously measured (9–23 years) mass index (BMI) from both (European Community Respiratory Health Survey, N = 3 041) and (Respiratory In Northern Europe study, 410)...
Obesity is a known risk factor for asthma. Although some evidence showed asthma causing obesity in children, the link between and has not been investigated adults.We used data from European Community Respiratory Health Survey (ECRHS), cohort study 11 countries Australia 3 waves 1990 2014, at intervals of approximately 10 years. We considered two periods: ECRHS I (t) to II (t+1), III (t+1). excluded obese (body mass index≥30 kg/m2) individuals visit t. The relative (RR) t+1 associated with t...
Early life exposure to tobacco smoke has been extensively studied but the role of second-hand (SHS) for new-onset respiratory symptoms and lung function decline in adulthood not widely investigated longitudinal studies. Our aim is investigate associations SHS adults with symptoms, conditions over 20 years. We used information from 3011 26 centres 12 countries who participated European Community Respiratory Health Surveys I-III were never or former smokers at all three surveys. Associations...
Emerging evidence suggests that androgens and estrogens have a role in respiratory health, but it is largely unknown whether levels of these hormones can affect lung function adults from the general population. This study investigated serum dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEA-S), key precursor both peripheral tissues, was related to adult women participating European Community Respiratory Health Survey (ECRHS).Lung DHEA-S concentrations were measured n = 2,045 1,725 1999-2002 2010-2013,...
Sleep length has been associated with obesity and various adverse health outcomes. The possible association of sleep respiratory symptoms not previously described. aim this study was to investigate the between whether such an existed independent obesity.This is a multicentre, cross-sectional, population-based performed in 23 centres 10 different countries. Participants (n=5079, 52.3% males) were adults third follow-up European Community Respiratory Health Survey III. mean±SD age 54.2±7.1...
Objectives To compare the prevalence of different insomnia subtypes among middle-aged adults from Europe and Australia to explore cross-sectional relationship between subtypes, respiratory symptoms lung function. Design Cross-sectional population-based, multicentre cohort study. Setting 23 centres in 10 European countries Australia. Methods We included 5800 participants third follow-up Community Respiratory Health Survey III (ECRHS III) who answered three questions on symptoms: difficulties...
<b>Introduction:</b> Action plans and education can improve asthma control decrease exacerbations. These are effective but they have little efficiency because of their poor implementation. When action used by telemedicine programs associated to education, there is an evidence decline hospital admissions while variable results about symptoms quality life questionnaires. The aim this study was assess the impact in healthcare demand patients with poorly controlled severe persistent asthma....
DHEA-S is the most abundant circulating steroid hormone in humans. Low concentrations of have been linked to several chronic diseases, but it unclear if affects respiratory health. As part ALEC project [EU H2020 grant #633212], associations with lung function levels and decline were evaluated women from general population. Serum measured 2,250 (28-57 years) participating European Community Respiratory Health Survey 1999-2002. Associations (categorized by age-adjusted quintiles)...
<b>Aim:</b> evaluate utility and applicability of telemedicine in severe asthmatic patients. <b>Methods:</b> We included 18 patients the group with persistent asthma controlled by Tele-asthma programme. This program was carried out using a tablet. With this tablet, made daily data transmission answering clinical questionnaire 5 questions sending their measured peak expiratory flow(PEF)value.A personalized action plan implemented for each patient alarm different degrees set up too which...
<b>Introduction:</b> Many occupational exposures have been associated with adult-onset asthma, but for very few agents is there evidence from longitudinal studies. <b>Aims:</b> We investigated associations between and the incidence of asthma over two decades in ECRHS cohort. <b>Methods:</b> The general population-based, multicentre cohort (13 countries) was followed up twice 20 years. This analysis included data 7027 (tier 1) I & III 5901 2) II III, whom a complete history could be...
<h3>Introduction</h3> About 15% of adult-onset asthma is attributed to occupational exposures. <h3>Objectives</h3> We examined whether prevention policies focusing on high-risk occupations adequately identify risks at a population level. estimated, in prospective population-based study, the distribution risk by occupation, and prior defined were distinguished from those non-high-risk occupations. <h3>Methods</h3> ECRHS multicentre cohort study; 9409 participants (52% female) 13 countries...
