Associations of four obesity indices with diabetes mellitus in Korean middle-aged and older adults using the Korean Genome and Epidemiology Study (KoGES)
The WHR had the strongest association with DM, but was not a good DM index in older people. Therefore, age-related index criteria for DM, especially in women, were needed for the effective prevention and management of DM
Sex-based differences in the association of leisure-time physical activity with the risk of depression: The Ansan and Ansung study of the Korean Genome and Epidemiology Study (KoGES)
Objective Depression is a serious mental disorder which is the leading cause of suicide. This study investigated the association between incident depression and 4-year leisure-time physical activity (PA) levels and/or resistance training (RT). Methods This community-based Korean cohort included 3,967 participants without depression at baseline. The average PA-time (the total duration of moderate-intensity leisure-time PA) up to 4 years prior to b…
Protective Effect of Leisure-Time Physical Activity and Resistance Training on Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease: A Nationwide Cross-Sectional Study
Following the PA guideline may confer protective effects against NAFLD, while adding RT to High-PA can further decrease the risk of NAFLD. Sex-based differences in NAFLD risk in the High-PA+RT group may be due to the differences in the frequency and period of RT
Anthropometric indices as predictors of hypertension among men and women aged 40–69 years in the Korean population: The Korean Genome and Epidemiology Study
The central obesity indices WC, WHR, and WHtR were better than BMI for the prediction of hypertension in middle-aged Korean people. WHtR facilitates prediction of incident hypertension because of the single standard regardless of sex, ethnicity, and age group. Therefore, WHtR is recommended as a screening tool for the prediction of hypertension
Gender differences in the association between socioeconomic status and hypertension incidence: The Korean Genome and Epidemiology Study (KoGES)
Educational level and economic status had stronger impacts on hypertension in Korean women than men. Thus, a stratified approach for women of low socioeconomic status, especially those with low educational attainment, is needed for the prevention of hypertension
Relationship between prehypertension and chronic kidney disease in middle-aged people in Korea: The Korean genome and epidemiology study
Prehypertension, as well as hypertension, is significantly associated with CKD among middle-aged Koreans. Our results indicate that active control of the blood-pressure of prehypertensive individuals is needed to prevent deterioration of kidney function
