Cardiovascular health assessed using Life’s Essential 8 is associated with all-cause and cardiovascular disease mortality among community-dwelling older men and women in the InCHIANTI study
Introduction: The older population is growing fast, and it is important to investigate the cardiovascular health factors and behaviors that are associated with cardiovascular disease (CVD) and mortality among older individuals. Methods: A total of 920 older adults (mean age: 74 years, 55% women) from the InCHIANTI study were included for analysis. Cardiovascular health (CVH) was assessed using the Life's Essential 8 (LE8) developed by the America…
Genetic analysis of dietary intake identifies new loci and functional links with metabolic traits
Bivariate Genome-Wide Association Study of Depressive Symptoms With Type 2 Diabetes and Quantitative Glycemic Traits
OBJECTIVE: Shared genetic background may explain phenotypic associations between depression and Type 2 diabetes (T2D). We aimed to study, on a genome-wide level, if genetic correlation and pleiotropic loci exist between depressive symptoms and T2D or glycemic traits. METHODS: We estimated single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP)-based heritability and analyzed genetic correlation between depressive symptoms and T2D and glycemic traits with the linkag…
Cardiovascular Health Is Associated With Disability Among Older Community Dwelling Men and Women
Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate whether an index of overall cardiovascular health (CVH) is associated with disability in older individuals. Method: Data on 925 participants of the InCHIANTI study (Invecchiare in Chianti, aging in the Chianti area, ≥65 years, 55% women) with median follow-up of 9 years were used. CVH score was assessed by smoking status, physical activity, body mass index, diet quality, blood pressure, plasma c…
Brain response patterns to economic inequity predict present and future depression indices
Genetic variants associated with subjective well-being, depressive symptoms, and neuroticism identified through genome-wide analyses
Overall Cardiovascular Health Is Associated With All-Cause and Cardiovascular Disease Mortality Among Older Community-Dwelling Men and Women
Cardiovascular health, even in the elderly, is inversely associated with mortality
Genetic studies of body mass index yield new insights for obesity biology
GWAS of 126,559 Individuals Identifies Genetic Variants Associated with Educational Attainment
Genetic College Many genomic elements in humans are associated with behavior, including educational attainment. In a genome-wide association study including more than 100,000 samples, Rietveld et al. (p. 1467 , published online 30 May; see the Perspective by Flint and Munafò ) looked for genes related to educational attainment in Caucasians. Small genetic effects at three loci appeared to impact educational attainment.
Genetic, Physiological, and Lifestyle Predictors of Mortality in the General Population
Objectives. We investigated the quality of 162 variables, focusing on the contribution of genetic markers, used solely or in combination with other characteristics, when predicting mortality. Methods. In 5974 participants from the Rotterdam Study, followed for a median of 15.1 years, 7 groups of factors including age and gender, genetics, socioeconomics, lifestyle, physiological characteristics, prevalent diseases, and indicators of general healt…
