Geographic variations in sleep duration
BACKGROUND: Sleep plays an important role in health and varies by social determinants. Little is known, however, about geographic variations in sleep and the role of individual-level and neighbourhood-level factors. METHODS: We used a multilevel modelling approach to quantify neighbourhood variation in self-reported sleep duration (very short <5 h; short 5-6.9 h; normative 7-8.9 h; long ≥9 h) among 3591 participants of the Boston Area Community H…
Heart rate variability and DNA methylation levels are altered after short-term metal fume exposure among occupational welders
Acute decline of HRV was observed following exposure to welding PM2.5 and evidence for an epigenetic response of transposable elements to short-term exposure to high-level metal-rich particulates was reported
Optimism in Relation to Inflammation and Endothelial Dysfunction in Older Men
Background: Recent research suggests that optimism may reduce the risk of incident cardiovascular disease, but the mechanisms have not been determined. This study examines the association of optimism with change in inflammation and endothelial function over time in men. Methods: Longitudinal data were obtained from the Normative Aging Study excluding men with preexisting coronary heart disease or active infection at the time optimism was assessed…
