Importance Short and long sleep durations are adversely associated with cardiovascular disease (CVD), type 2 diabetes, mortality. It remains unclear how duration trajectories over time mortality whether these associations vary by well-documented sex, race, socioeconomic disparities. Objective To investigate the association of 5-year all-cause cause-specific among US adults, predominantly those in low-income groups. Design, Setting, Participants The Southern Community Cohort Study included...
Prolonged sitting has emerged as a risk factor for early mortality, but the extent of benefit realized by replacing time with exercise or activities everyday living (i.e., nonexercise activities) is not known.We prospectively followed 154,614 older adults (59-82 yr) in National Institutes Health-AARP Diet and Health Study who reported no major chronic diseases at baseline detailed information about time, exercise, activities. Proportional hazard models were used to estimate adjusted ratios...
Metabolomic analysis of feces may provide insights on colorectal cancer (CRC) if assay performance is satisfactory. In lyophilized from 48 CRC cases, 102 matched controls, and masked quality control specimens, 1043 small molecules were detected with a commercial platform. Assay reproducibility was good for 527 metabolites [technical intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) >0.7 in specimens], but 6-month paired specimens lower the majority (within-subject ICC ≤0.5). cases significant...
Both short and long durations of sleep are associated with higher mortality, but little is known about the interrelationship between other modifiable factors in relation to mortality. In National Institutes Health-AARP Diet Health Study (1995–1996), we examined associations duration total, cardiovascular disease (CVD), cancer mortality among 239,896 US men women aged 51–72 years who were free cancer, CVD, respiratory disease. We evaluated influence moderate-to-vigorous physical activity,...
A new species of the genus Nemoura, N. latilongispina sp. nov. from Chuxiong Yi Autonomous Prefecture Yunnan Province, southwestern China is described and illustrated. The characterized by ventral sclerite epiproct extended laterally, forming upcurved plates fringed with long spines along upper margin, strongly sclerotized, fork-shaped cercus.
The relationship between sleep and obesity or weight gain in adults, particularly older populations, remains unclear. In a cohort of 83,377 US men women aged 51-72 years, we prospectively investigated the association self-reported duration change over an average 7.5 years follow-up (1995-2004). Participants were free cancer, heart disease, stroke at baseline throughout follow-up. We observed inverse per night both (P for trend = 0.02) < 0.001). Compared with 7-8 hours sleep, shorter (<5 5-6...
Two new species of the nemourid genus Mesonemoura from Yunnan Province southwestern China are described, M. longiflagellata Xiao & Qian sp. nov. Pudatcuo National Park Shangri-la City and tumida Du Cangshan Mountian Dali City. The male female terminalia compared to related species.
Nitrate and nitrite are precursors of endogenously formed N-nitroso compounds (NOC), known animal carcinogens. Nitrosation reactions forming NOCs can be inhibited by vitamin C other antioxidants. We prospectively investigated the association between dietary nitrate intake risk colorectal cancer in Shanghai Women's Health Study, a cohort 73,118 women ages 40-70 residing Shanghai. evaluated effect modification factors that affect endogenous formation NOCs: (at or above/below median) red meat...
Very few studies have examined sleep duration in relation to cancer incidence with the exception of breast cancer.We assessed associations between and incidences total 18 site-specific cancers NIH-AARP Health Diet Study cohort, 173,327 men 123,858 women aged 51-72 years at baseline. Self-reported categories were via questionnaire. We used multivariable Cox proportional hazards regression estimate hazard ratios (HR) 95% confidence intervals (CI), using 7-8 hours/night as reference.We observed...
Summary: The International Initiative on Spatial Lifecourse Epidemiology (ISLE) convened its first Symposium and Science at the Lorentz Center in Leiden, Netherlands, 16–20 July 2018. Its aim was to further an emerging transdisciplinary field: Epidemiology. This field draws from a broad perspective of scientific disciplines including lifecourse epidemiology, environmental community health, spatial science, health geography, biostatistics, statistics, climate change, exposure economics,...
Prior studies have found a reduced risk of dementia any etiology following influenza vaccination in selected populations, including veterans and patients with serious chronic health conditions. However, the effect on Alzheimer's disease (AD) general cohort older US adults has not been characterized.To compare incident AD between without prior large claims database.Deidentified data spanning September 1, 2009 through August 31, 2019 were used. Eligible free during 6-year look-back period...
Importance Area-level factors have been identified as important social determinants of health (SDoH) that impact many health-related outcomes. Less is known about how the vulnerability index (SVI), a scalable composite score, can multidimensionally explain population-based cancer screening program uptake at county level. Objective To examine geographic variation US Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF)–recommended breast, cervical, and colorectal rates association between county-level SVI...
Microscopy is very important in research and industry, yet traditional optical microscopy suffers from the limited field-of-view (FOV) depth-of-field (DOF) high-resolution imaging. We demonstrate a simultaneous large FOV DOF microscope imaging technology based on chip-scale metalens device that implemented by SiNx array with co- cross-polarization multiplexed dual-phase design dispersive spectrum zoom effect. A 4-mm × obtained resolution of 1.74 μm 200 within wavelength range 450 to 510 nm,...
OBJECTIVE We aimed to determine the association of time-of-day bout-related moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (bMVPA) with changes in glycemic control across 4 years adults overweight/obesity and type 2 diabetes. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Among 2,416 participants (57% women; mean age, 59 years) 7-day waist-worn accelerometry recording at year 1 or 4, we assigned bMVPA timing groups based on participants’ temporal distribution recategorized them 4. The time-varying exposure (≥10-min...
There is limited evidence demonstrating the benefits of physical activity with regard to mortality risk or harms associated sedentary behavior in black adults, so we examined relationships between these health behaviors and cause-specific a prospective study that had large proportion adults. Participants (40–79 years age) enrolled Southern Community Cohort Study 2002 2009 (n = 63,308) were prospectively followed over 6.4 years, 3,613 1,394 deaths occurred blacks whites, respectively. Black...
Background: Identifying circulating metabolites related to cigarette smoking may provide insight into the biological mechanisms of smoking-related diseases and nature addiction. However, previous studies are limited, generally small, have largely targeted a priori metabolites. Methods: We examined associations between using an untargeted metabolomics approach in 892 men women from four including participants Italy, USA, China Finland. individual log-transformed two key phenotypes (current...
Background: Physical activity is associated with a variety of health benefits, but the biological mechanisms that explain these associations remain unclear. Metabolomics powerful tool to comprehensively evaluate global metabolic signature physical and helps pinpoint pathways mediate effects activity. There has been limited research on metabolomics habitual activity, no study examined sedentary behaviour different intensities. Methods: In group Chinese adults (N = 277), we used an untargeted...
