  • Dog ownership, glycaemic control and all-cause death in patients with newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes

    Open AccessKarin Rådholm, Peder af Geijerstam et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Public Health2023

    Aims: To evaluate whether dog ownership from the time of type 2 diabetes diagnosis improved glycaemic control, increased achievement of major guideline treatment goals or reduced the risk of all-cause death. Methods: Patients diagnosed with type 2 diabetes were followed by linkage of four Swedish national registers covering diabetes, dog ownership, socioeconomics, and mortality. Linear regression was used to estimate the mean yearly change in gly…

    Objective To update the estimate of mean salt intake for the Australian population made by the Australian Health Survey (AHS). Design A secondary analysis of the data collected in a cross-sectional survey was conducted. Estimates of salt intake were made in Lithgow using the 24 h diet recall methodology employed by the AHS as well as using 24 h urine collections.

    Open AccessDena Ettehad, Connor A Emdin et al.ARTICLEThe Lancet2016

  • Worry is associated with robust reductions in heart rate variability

    Open AccessJohn Chalmers, John A Chalmers et al.ARTICLEBMC Psychology2016

    The specific symptom of worry - not the diagnosis of an anxiety disorder - was associated with the most robust reductions in HRV, indicating that HRV may provide a transdiagnostic biomarker of worry. These results enhance understanding of the relationship between the cardiac autonomic nervous system and anxiety psychopathology, providing support for dimensional-trait models consistent with the Research Domain Criteria framework

  • Effects of a community-based salt reduction program in a regional Australian population

  • Anxiety Disorders are Associated with Reduced Heart Rate Variability

    Open AccessJohn Chalmers, John A Chalmers et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Psychiatry2014

    Anxiety disorders are associated with reduced HRV, findings associated with a small-to-moderate effect size. Findings have important implications for future physical health and well-being of patients, highlighting a need for comprehensive cardiovascular risk reduction

  • Protocol for the implementation and evaluation of a community-based intervention seeking to reduce dietary salt intake in Lithgow, Australia
