Effect of breast-feeding on weight retention at 3 and 6 months postpartum: Data from the North Carolina WIC Programme
Objective Pregnancy-related weight retention can contribute to obesity, and breast-feeding may facilitate postpartum weight loss. We investigated the effect of breast-feeding on postpartum weight retention. Design A retrospective follow-up study of weight retention, compared in women who were fully breast-feeding, combining breast-feeding with formula-feeding (mixed feeding), or formula-feeding at 3 months ( n 14 330) or 6 months ( n 4922) postpa…
Cancer Survivors' Health Worries and Associations with Lifestyle Practices
This study examined among recently diagnosed breast and prostate cancer survivors ( N = 678) associations between worry about a future diagnosis of heart disease or cancer and hypothetical and actual adherence to exercise and dietary guidelines. Greater worry about future illness was reported under the hypothetical scenario of nonadherence to guidelines relative to the scenario of adherence. Worry about potential heart disease was associated with…
Religiosity and Remission of Depression in Medically Ill Older Patients
In this study, greater intrinsic religiosity independently predicted shorter time to remission. To the authors' knowledge, this is the first report in which religiosity has been examined as a predictor of outcome of depressive disorder.
