What Should a Public Health Approach to Sleep Look Like
Sleep is essential for a healthy, productive life, but access to sufficient and quality sleep is not universal. Sleep equity is influenced by both pathological and nonpathological sources. This article considers nonpathological determinants of adequate sleep, defines 3 features of sleep insecurity, and suggests how to promote sleep literacy to remove some barriers to adequate sleep, promote sleep equity, and improve individual and community healt…
Differential fat accumulation in early adulthood according to adolescent‐BMI and heavy metal exposure
Heavy metal exposure in adolescence may alter how fat is accumulated in later periods of life
Relationships of beverage consumption and actigraphy-assessed sleep parameters among urban-dwelling youth from Mexico
Objective: To examine whether usual beverage intake was associated with sleep timing, duration and fragmentation among adolescents. Design: Usual beverage intake was assessed with a FFQ. Outcomes included sleep duration, midpoint (median of bed and wake times) and fragmentation, assessed with 7-d actigraphy. Sex-stratified linear regression was conducted with sleep characteristics as separate outcomes and quantiles of energy-adjusted beverage int…
Association between self-reported sleep duration and dietary quality in Mexican school-aged children
Associations between sleep duration and Mediterranean diet score in Costa Rican adults
Exposure to Phenols, Phthalates, and Parabens and Development of Metabolic Syndrome Among Mexican Women in Midlife
Background: Evidence suggests exposure to endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) can influence Metabolic Syndrome (MetS) risk in adults, but it is unclear if EDCs impact women during midlife. We examined if EDCs measured in adult women were predictive of MetS and its components 9 years later. Methods: We measured urinary phthalate metabolites, phenols, and parabens collected in 2008 among 73 females from the ELEMENT study. MetS and its components …
Practical Solutions to Address Covid-19-Related Mental and Physical Health Challenges Among Low-Income Older Adults
Low-income older adults are disproportionately impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. In this perspective article, we review the context in which low-income older people experience the pandemic and the mental and physical health consequences they have faced to date. Then, we offer practical solutions to help improve low-income older adults' sleep, physical activity, nutrition, and stress that require no or low financial commitment. We argue that gove…
Association between pesticide exposure and sleep health among a representative sample of US adults: Evidence from NHANES 2009–2014
In summary, acute pesticide exposure may be detrimental to adult sleep health, particularly among US males
Blood levels of lead and dental caries in permanent teeth
This study shows a lack of association between exposure to lead between the ages of 1-4 years of age and dental caries in permanent dentition later in life. Other covariates, such as age and sugar consumption, appeared to play a more prominent role in caries development
Exploring dietary patterns in a Mexican adolescent population: A mixed methods approach
Associations between sleep duration and dietary quality: Results from a nationally-representative survey of US adults
Early Menstrual Factors Are Associated with Adulthood Cardio-Metabolic Health in a Survey of Mexican Teachers
Sociodemographic correlates and family aggregation of leukocyte telomere length in adults and children from Mesoamerica
OBJECTIVE: Telomere length is a biomarker of cumulative stress and inflammation related to chronic disease risk. We examined the associations of leukocyte telomere length (LTL) with sociodemographic and anthropometric variables and estimated LTL family aggregation in Central America, a region with a high burden of chronic disease where LTL has not been studied. METHODS: We conducted a cross-sectional study of 174 school age children and their par…
Changes in household food insecurity are related to changes in BMI and diet quality among Michigan Head Start preschoolers in a sex-specific manner
