Influential Factors on Participation in Mental Health Research
Uptake and cardiac events of Covid-19 vaccinations among Canadian youth and young adults
Few studies have examined population-level data of the COVID-19 original and bivalent vaccine on its uptake and potential side effects. We used population-based health administrative data from Jan 2021–Feb 2023 to identify Ontario residents aged 12–35 years old to calculate their rates of COVID-19 vaccine uptake and vaccine-related cardiac events (myocarditis and pericarditis). Multivariable Cox, logistic, and negative binomial regression analyse…

Evaluation of anthropometric measures for assessment of cardiometabolic risk in early childhood
Objective: Waist-to-height ratio has been shown to be an important indicator of cardiometabolic risk. There are few studies evaluating this measure against existing measures of adiposity and cardiometabolic markers in early childhood. The objectives were: (i) to determine in young children the ability of waist-to-height ratio, BMI z -score, weight for length, and sum of skin fold thickness to predict cardiometabolic risk and (ii) to examine this …
