Physical Activity Patterns in a Diverse Population of Women
Differences in fertility associated with caffeinated beverage consumption
OBJECTIVES: The effect of caffeine consumption on fertility was examined prospectively in 210 women. METHODS: Women reported on caffeinated beverage consumption and pregnancy status monthly. Odds ratios for becoming pregnant were calculated for both high and moderate vs low consumption. RESULTS: No significant association was found for any of the caffeinated beverages except tea. Drinking one-half cup or more of tea daily approximately doubled th…
Nongenetic influences of obesity on other cardiovascular disease risk factors
The importance of genetic influences on obesity has been emphasized recently. We conducted matched co-twin analyses of 250 pairs of White, male, monozygotic twins from the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) Twin Study. Entirely in the absence of genetic influences, obesity was significantly associated with systolic and diastolic blood pressures; one-hour, post-load glucose; total, LDL-, and HDL-cholesterol; and triglycerides among …
Epidemiologic features of treated end-stage renal disease in a large prepaid health plan
We examined the incidence of treated end-stage renal disease (ESRD) among the two million members of the Kaiser Permanente Medical Care Program of Northern California from 1973 through 1985. The age-adjusted incidence rates rose from 33.9 to 81.7 per million person-years and showed no signs of stabilization. Rates were higher in men than in women and rose with age. Marked upward trends (p less than .001) in the rates of treated ESRD associated wi…
A survival analysis of hospitalization among patients with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome
Survival analysis techniques were used in estimating lifetime inpatient utilization among patients diagnosed with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) using data on 863 members of the Kaiser Permanente Medical Care Program in the Northern California Region diagnosed with AIDS between January 1, 1981 and June 30, 1987. Using information on both deceased and living patients, we estimated means of 40.3 lifetime inpatient days and 3.3 hospitaliz…
