Background: Overweight and obesity in adulthood are linked to an increased risk for death disease. Their potential effect on life expectancy premature has not yet been described. Objective: To analyze reductions increases associated with overweight at 40 years of age. Design: Prospective cohort study. Setting: The Framingham Heart Study follow-up from 1948 1990. Participants: 3457 participants who were 30 49 age baseline. Measurements: Mortality rates specific body mass index group (normal...

The Generation R Study is a population-based prospective cohort study from fetal life until young adulthood. designed to identify early environmental and genetic causes of normal abnormal growth, development health during life, childhood focuses on four primary areas research: (1) growth physical development; (2) behavioural cognitive (3) diseases in childhood; (4) healthcare for pregnant women children. In total, 9,778 mothers with delivery date April 2002 January 2006 were enrolled the...
Low socio-economic status is associated with a higher prevalence of depression, but it not yet known whether change in leads to rates depression.To assess longitudinal factors affects depression level.In prospective cohort study using the annual Belgian Household Panel Survey (1992-1999), was assessed Global Depression Scale. Socio-economic were regard material standard living, education, employment and social relationships.A lowering living between waves increases depressive symptoms...

Results: Maternal lower educational level, household income, multiparity, FTO allel were associated with an increased obesity,...
<h3>Background</h3> Physical inactivity is a modifiable risk factor for cardiovascular disease. However, little known about the effects of physical activity on life expectancy with and without Our objective was to calculate consequences different levels after age 50 years total <h3>Methods</h3> We constructed multistate tables using data from Framingham Heart Study 3 (low, moderate, high) among populations older than years. For table calculations, we used hazard ratios transitions (healthy...

<h3>Abstract</h3> <b>Objectives:</b> To compare countries in western Europe with respect to class differences mortality from specific causes of death and assess the contributions these make total mortality. <b>Design:</b> Comparison cause manual non-manual classes, using data on national studies. <b>Setting:</b> Eleven European period 1980-9. <b>Subjects:</b> Men aged 45–59 years at death. <b>Results:</b> A north-south gradient was observed: ischaemic heart disease strongly related...
Background: Diabetes mellitus is a recognized risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD) and mortality.However, limited information exists on the association of diabetes with life expectancy without CVD.We aimed to calculate after age 50 years number lived CVD.Methods: Using data from Framingham Heart Study, we built tables associations having CVD among populations older.For table calculations, used hazard ratios 3 transitions (healthy death, healthy CVD, death), stratifying by presence at...
To determine whether government efforts in reducing inequalities health European countries have actually made a difference to mortality by socioeconomic group.Register based study.Mortality data level of education and occupational class the period 1990-2010, usually collected census linked longitudinal study design. We compared changes between lowest highest groups, calculated their effect on absolute relative (measured as rate differences ratios, respectively).All for which were available...
<h3>Importance</h3> Examining life expectancy by county allows for tracking geographic disparities over time and assessing factors related to these disparities. This information is potentially useful policy makers, clinicians, researchers seeking reduce increase longevity. <h3>Objective</h3> To estimate annual tables from 1980 2014; describe trends in inequalities age-specific risk of death; assess the proportion variation explained socioeconomic race/ethnicity factors, behavioral metabolic...
