Background Adiposity has been characterised as a modifiable risk factor of prostate cancer. Its association with outcomes after prostate cancer diagnosis, however, needs to be better understood and obtain more evidence to assist the development of lifestyle guidance for prostate cancer patients. Methods We investigated the associations between adiposity indices close to prostate cancer diagnosis…
Objectives Few panel studies have investigated how different types of mental health (MH) and socio-emotional wellbeing (SEW) outcomes have changed during the pandemic and if their burden has been equally distributed at the population-level. We aimed to examine temporal changes in these outcomes and their socio-ecological predictors using panel data. Study design Longitudinal population-based survey…
FUNDAMENTOS // Una Atención Primaria fuerte tiene efectos beneficiosos para la salud. El atributo de la misma con mayores beneficios es la longitudinalidad, que requiere de estabilidad laboral para poder producirse. Además, la Atención Primaria se enfrenta a una crisis por el número de jubilaciones que espera. Conseguir la permanencia de los profesionales jóvenes en…
Background The allometric body shape index (ABSI) and hip index (HI), as well as multi-trait body shape phenotypes, have not yet been compared in their associations with inflammatory markers. The aim of this study was to examine the relationship between novel and traditional anthropometric indexes with inflammation using data from the European Prospective Investigation into…
Background: The incidence of self-harm and suicidal behaviour in adolescents is increasing. Considering the great impact in this population, an actualization of the evidence of those psychological treatment’s excellence for suicidal behaviour. Thus, the aim of this paper is to compile the available evidence on the effectiveness of cognitive behavioural therapy and dialectical behavioural therapy…
Carcinogenesis is closely related to the expression, maintenance, and stability of DNA. These processes are regulated by one-carbon metabolism (1CM), which involves several vitamins of the complex B (folate, B2, B6, and B12), whereas alcohol disrupts the cycle due to the inhibition of folate activity. The relationship between nutrients related to 1CM (all aforementioned vitamins…
Aim The aim of the study is to quantify the main ways in which the sex of the driver/occupant of a passenger car affects the severity of road crashes. Methods All 171 230 cars occupied by the driver and one or more passengers included in the Spanish Register of Victims of Road Crashes from 2014 to…
The ability of organophosphate pesticides to disturb immune function has been demonstrated by in vivo and in vitro studies, but evidence of such effects on humans remains scarce. To assess the association between organophosphate pesticides exposure and cytokine levels in Mexican flower workers, a cross-sectional study was carried out. A questionnaire was provided to 121…
Advanced glycation end-products (AGEs), formed endogenously or obtained exogenously from diet, may contribute to chronic inflammation, intracellular signaling alterations, and pathogenesis of several chronic diseases including colorectal cancer (CRC). However, the role of AGEs in CRC survival is less known. The associations of pre-diagnostic circulating AGEs and their soluble receptor (sRAGE) with CRC-specific and overall…
The healthy lifestyle index (HLI), defined as the unweighted sum of individual lifestyle components, was used to investigate the combined role of lifestyle factors on health-related outcomes. We introduced weighted outcome-specific versions of the HLI, where individual lifestyle components were weighted according to their associations with disease outcomes. Within the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer…
