Socioeconomic determinants of shift work employment in Canada and the Netherlands
Background: Shift work is known to be a risk factor for metabolic diseases. Although not established within literature, socioeconomic disadvantage may be associated with increased risk of being engaged in these shift work patterns. Aim: To examine whether socioeconomic factors are associated with the likelihood of engaging in shift work. Methods: Using data from the Canadian Longitudinal Study on Aging (CLSA), we conducted a cross-sectional analy…
Obesity and Cardiovascular Disease
The global obesity epidemic is well established, with increases in obesity prevalence for most countries since the 1980s. Obesity contributes directly to incident cardiovascular risk factors, including dyslipidemia, type 2 diabetes, hypertension, and sleep disorders. Obesity also leads to the development of cardiovascular disease and cardiovascular disease mortality independently of other cardiovascular risk factors. More recent data highlight ab…
Risk thresholds for alcohol consumption
BACKGROUND: Low-risk limits recommended for alcohol consumption vary substantially across different national guidelines. To define thresholds associated with lowest risk for all-cause mortality and cardiovascular disease, we studied individual-participant data from 599 912 current drinkers without previous cardiovascular disease. METHODS: We did a combined analysis of individual-participant data from three large-scale data sources in 19 high-inco…
Importance of Assessing Cardiorespiratory Fitness in Clinical Practice
Mounting evidence has firmly established that low levels of cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) are associated with a high risk of cardiovascular disease, all-cause mortality, and mortality rates attributable to various cancers. A growing body of epidemiological and clinical evidence demonstrates not only that CRF is a potentially stronger predictor of mortality than established risk factors such as smoking, hypertension, high cholesterol, and type 2…
Heart Disease and Stroke Statistics—2016 Update
Each year, the American Heart Association (AHA), in conjunction with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the National Institutes of Health, and other government agencies, brings together the most up-to-date statistics related to heart disease, stroke, and other cardiovascular and metabolic diseases and presents them in its Heart Disease and Stroke Statistical Update. The Statistical Update represents a critical resource for the lay pu…
Rationale, design, and methods for Canadian alliance for healthy hearts and minds cohort study (CAHHM) – a Pan Canadian cohort study
CAHHM is a prospective cohort study designed to investigate the impact of community level factors, individual health behaviours, and access to health services, on cognitive function, subclinical vascular disease, fat distribution, and the development of chronic diseases among adults living in Canada

Pathophysiology of Human Visceral Obesity
Excess intra-abdominal adipose tissue accumulation, often termed visceral obesity, is part of a phenotype including dysfunctional subcutaneous adipose tissue expansion and ectopic triglyceride storage closely related to clustering cardiometabolic risk factors. Hypertriglyceridemia; increased free fatty acid availability; adipose tissue release of proinflammatory cytokines; liver insulin resistance and inflammation; increased liver VLDL synthesis …
Short sleep duration is associated with greater alcohol consumption in adults
Sugar-Sweetened Beverages, Obesity, Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, and Cardiovascular Disease Risk
Obesity has recently emerged as a major global health problem. According to World Health Organization estimates, ≈1.6 billion adults worldwide were overweight (body mass index [BMI] ≥25 kg/m2) and at least 400 million were obese (BMI ≥30 kg/m2) in 2005, numbers that are expected to reach 2.3 billion and 700 million, respectively, by 2015. In the United States, the percentage of overweight and obese adults increased markedly from 47% and 15% in 19…
Sugar-Sweetened Beverages and Risk of Metabolic Syndrome and Type 2 Diabetes
OBJECTIVE: Consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages (SSBs), which include soft drinks, fruit drinks, iced tea, and energy and vitamin water drinks has risen across the globe. Regular consumption of SSBs has been associated with weight gain and risk of overweight and obesity, but the role of SSBs in the development of related chronic metabolic diseases, such as metabolic syndrome and type 2 diabetes, has not been quantitatively reviewed. RESEARCH …
Metabolic and behavioral vulnerability related to weight regain in reduced-obese men might be prevented by an adequate diet–exercise intervention
Abdominal obesity and metabolic syndrome
Pleiotropic QTL on Chromosome 12q23-q24 Influences Triglyceride and High-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol Levels
To determine whether a common quantitative trait locus (QTL) influences the variation of fasting triglyceride (TG) and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) levels, we used a bivariate multipoint linkage analysis with 654 polymorphic markers in 99 white and 101 black families. The phenotypes were investigated under two conditions: at baseline and after a 20-week exercise training intervention. A maximum genome-wide bivariate LOD score of 3…
Modifications in food-group consumption are related to long-term body-weight changes
These results show that changes in the consumption of some specific food groups are associated with body-weight changes. Such specific eating patterns could help to improve obesity treatment and prevention.
Tratamiento de la obesidad
La obesidad visceral se asocia a anormalidades metabólicas aumentando el riesgo de diabetes de tipo 2 y de coronariopatía (CP). El Estudio Cardiovascular de Québec demostró que la tríada metabólica aterogénica (TMA) presente en hombres visceralmente obesos (VO), incrementa 20 veces el riesgo de CP durante un período de 5 años. Fue desarrollado un algoritmo de detección precoz a fin de identificar individuos que podrían ser portadores de estas ano…
