Differential Associations of Physical Activity and Cognitive Function Among Diverse Older Adult Populations in the NHANES 2011–2014
Objectives: Physical activity (PA) is positively associated with cognitive health. However, the extent to which this relationship varies across different demographic and health status subgroups remains unclear. Methods : This study involves 2,547 US individuals aged ≥60 from the NHANES cycle to examine the associations between device-based PA levels (average daily PA and Peak-30 in the Monitor Independent Movement Summary unit and performance-bas…
Associations between sleep duration, sleep disturbance and cardiovascular disease biomarkers among adults in the United States
Short and long sleep durations were positively associated with abnormal CRP, HDL, HbA1c, blood glucose, and insulin levels, while sleep disturbance was associated with abnormal triglyceride and blood glucose levels. Since sleep is a modifiable factor, adopting healthy sleeping habits may create a balanced metabolism and reduce the risk of developing a CVD. Our study may provide insights into the relationship between sleep duration, sleep disturba…
Impact of a Large Healthy Start Program on Perinatal Outcomes, South Carolina, 2009–2019
Using linked birth and death certificates for participants served by a Healthy Start program in South Carolina and community controls, we found that the Healthy Start program contributed to significant improvements in prenatal care, breastfeeding initiation, and participation in the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children and significant reductions in inadequate weight gain and large-for-gestational-age births. How…
Dietary selenium intake and mortality in two population-based cohort studies of 133 957 Chinese men and women
Objective To investigate the potential influence of dietary Se intake on mortality among Chinese populations. Design We prospectively evaluated all-cause, CVD and cancer mortality risks associated with dietary Se intake in participants of the Shanghai Women’s Health Study (SWHS) and the Shanghai Men’s Health study (SMHS). Dietary Se intake was assessed by validated FFQ during in-person interviews. Cox proportional hazards models were used to calc…
