Measuring the biological embedding of chronic stress
Background Epidemiological studies on chronic stress and cancer risk have produced inconsistent findings, likely due to challenges in measuring stress exposure. The allostatic load model offers an alternative biomarker-based framework by capturing the biological embedding of chronic stress. Objectives To examine the association between allostatic load and cancer risk, compare alternative operationalizations of the allostatic load construct, and a…

Mortality attributable to modifiable lifestyle factors in the Spanish cohort of the European prospective investigation into cancer and nutrition (Epic) study
Shifting from any risk factor to a healthier lifestyle would reduce mortality in both sexes. However, in women, alcohol consumption did not influence mortality risk and only BMI was associated with mortality risk attributable body adiposity
What cancers are increasing in young adults
The incidence of several types of cancer has increased significantly among young adults in southern Spain, with more pronounced increases among women. There is an urgent need to investigate the underlying causes of increasing early-onset cancer trends and explore changes in early detection strategies
Quantifying the environmental and food biodiversity impacts of ultra-processed foods
Objective: While associations of ultra-processed food (UPF) consumption with adverse health outcomes are accruing, its environmental and food biodiversity impacts remain underexplored. This study examines associations between UPF consumption and dietary greenhouse gas emissions (GHGe), land use and food biodiversity. Design: Prospective cohort study. Linear mixed models estimated associations between UPF intake (g/d and kcal/d) and GHGe (kg CO 2 …
Examining causal relationships between educational attainment and type 2 diabetes using genetic analysis
INTRODUCTION: Observational studies have shown that more educated people are at lower risk of developing type 2 diabetes (T2D). However, robust study designs are needed to investigate the likelihood that such a relationship is causal. This study used genetic instruments for education to estimate the effect of education on T2D using the Mendelian randomisation (MR) approach. METHODS: Analyses have been conducted in the European Prospective Investi…
Anticipated prehospital decision delay in response to different symptom clusters in acute coronary syndrome
The diverse manifestations of acute coronary syndrome generate fundamentally different appraisals. Anticipated patient decision delay varies as a function of socio-demographic characteristics and medical history, supporting findings from studies with patients who experienced ACS. Measuring anticipated patient decision delay in the general population can help reveal potential barriers to help-seeking and capture effects of population interventions
Epidemiology of human papillomavirus-associated anogenital cancers in Granada
Introduction: HPV infection is a common risk factor for all anogenital cancers. However, there are important differences in the epidemiology of anogenital cancers and these have not been compared considering diverse epidemiological indicators over a long period of time. To fill this gap, we investigated incidence, mortality, and survival trends of anogenital cancers over a period of three decades. Methods: We conducted an observational registry-b…
Socio-economic inequalities in lung cancer mortality in Spain
Socio-economic status is strongly related to lung cancer mortality, showing opposite patterns in men and women, such that mortality is highest in women residing in the least deprived areas and men residing in the most deprived areas. Systematic surveillance of lung cancer mortality by socio-economic status may facilitate the assessment of public health interventions aimed at mitigating cancer inequalities in Spain
Predictive Model and Mortality Risk Score during Admission for Ischaemic Stroke with Conservative Treatment
It is possible to create a predictive model of mortality for patients with ischaemic stroke from which important advances can be made towards optimising the quality and efficiency of care. The model results are available within a few minutes of admission and would provide a valuable complementary resource for the neurologist
Health-related quality of life in patients newly diagnosed with prostate cancer
The mental dimension of HRQoL at diagnosis of patients with PCa was lower than in controls, especially for cases with severe urinary symptoms and a metastatic tumour. Comorbidities and urinary symptoms were variables associated with the HRQoL of PCa cases
Protocolo del Estudio Poblacional Multinivel de las Desigualdades Socioeconómicas en la Distribución Geográfica de la Incidencia, la Mortalidad y la Supervivencia Neta del Cáncer en España
La incidencia y la mortalidad brindan información sobre la carga de la morbilidad del cáncer y los años potenciales de vida perdidos debido al cáncer. Se ha desarrollado el Índice de Privación (IP) como una medida estandarizada para medir la privación socioeconómica en España a nivel de sección censal. Además, se puede combinar la información del IP con variables ecológicas poblacionales y los datos de los Estudios Europeos de Alta Resolución en …
Public Perceptions of the Role of Lifestyle Factors in Cancer Development
The European Code against Cancer recommends not to smoke, to avoid alcohol consumption, to eat a healthy diet, and maintain a healthy weight to prevent cancer. To what extent is the public aware of the influence of these lifestyle factors on cancer development? The goal of the current study was to describe the perceived influence of four lifestyle factors (tobacco, alcohol, diet, and weight) on cancer development in the general population and ide…
Adherence to Clinical Practice Guidelines and Colorectal Cancer Survival
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common cancer worldwide. Population-based, high-resolution studies are essential for the continuous evaluation and updating of diagnosis and treatment standards. This study aimed to assess adherence to clinical practice guidelines and investigate its relationship with survival. We conducted a retrospective high-resolution population-based study of 1050 incident CRC cases from the cancer registries of Gran…
Predictive Model of the Risk of In-Hospital Mortality in Colorectal Cancer Surgery, Based on the Minimum Basic Data Set
This mortality model is the first to be based on administrative clinical databases and hospitalization episodes. The model achieves a moderate-high level of discrimination
Night Shift Work, Chronotype, Sleep Duration, and Prostate Cancer Risk
To analyze the association between prostate cancer (PCa) risk and night shift work, chronotype, and sleep duration in the context of a population-based case-control study of incident prostate cancer in Spain, a total of 465 PCa cases and 410 controls were analyzed. Selection criteria were: (i) age 40-80 years, and (ii) residence in the coverage area of the reference hospitals for ≥6 months before recruitment. Exposure variables were: (i) night sh…

The influence of lifestyle, diet, and reproductive history on age at natural menopause in Spain
OBJECTIVE: To determinate the role of lifestyle factors, recent diet, menstrual factors, and reproductive history in age at natural menopause in adult Spanish women. METHODS: In total, 12 562 pre-menopausal women were available for analysis from the EPIC-Spain sub-cohort. Women were recruited between 1992 and 1996 in five regions of Spain (Asturias, Granada, Murcia, Navarra, and San Sebastian) and, for these analyses, were followed for 3 years. Q…
No association between fish consumption and risk of stroke in the Spanish cohort of the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (Epic-Spain)
Objective To prospectively assess the associations between lean fish, fatty fish and total fish intakes and risk of stroke in the Spanish cohort of the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC-Spain). Design Fish intake was estimated from a validated dietary questionnaire. Cox proportional hazards regression models were used to assess the association between the intakes of lean fish, fatty fish and total fish and stroke …
