<h4>Background</h4>Studies have suggested increased risks of childhood leukaemia after prenatal exposure to antibiotics, particularly nitrofurantoin. However, these findings may be related to the underlying maternal infection. This multinational study aimed to investigate the association between prenatal nitrofurantoin exposure and childhood leukaemia while accounting for maternal infection.<h4>Methods</h4>In a population-based cohort study ...

We aimed to study whether pre-eclampsia is associated with childhood asthma, allergic and non-allergic asthma, accounting for family factors and intermediate variables. The study population comprised 779 711 children born in 2005-2012, identified from Swedish national health registers (n = 14 823/7410 exposed to mild/moderate and severe pre-eclampsia, respectively). We ... Read more >>

<h4>Background</h4>Low blood pressure (BP) is associated with frailty in older adults. Our aim was to explore how BP predicts transitions between frailty states.<h4>Methods</h4>We used data from the Lausanne cohort Lc65+, a population-based cohort of older adults randomly drawn from a population registry in Switzerland, in 2004, 2009 and 2014. BP ... Read more >>

<h4>Background</h4>Variations in the age patterns and magnitudes of excess deaths, as well as differences in population sizes and age structures, make cross-national comparisons of the cumulative mortality impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic challenging. Life expectancy is a widely used indicator that provides a clear and cross-nationally comparable picture of the ... Read more >>

<h4>Background</h4>Mendelian randomization has been previously used to estimate the effects of binary and ordinal categorical exposures-e.g. Type 2 diabetes or educational attainment defined by qualification-on outcomes. Binary and categorical phenotypes can be modelled in terms of liability-an underlying latent continuous variable with liability thresholds separating individuals into categories. Genetic variants ...

<h4>Background</h4>Atrial fibrillation (AF) has a higher prevalence in men than in women and is associated with measures of adiposity and lean mass (LM). However, it remains uncertain whether the risks of AF associated with these measures vary by sex.<h4>Methods</h4>Among 477 904 UK Biobank participants aged 40-69 without prior AF, 23 ... Read more >>

<h4>Background</h4>Both parental and neighbourhood socio-economic status (SES) are linked to poorer health independently of personal SES measures, but the biological mechanisms are unclear. Our objective was to examine these influences via epigenetic age acceleration (EAA)-the discrepancy between chronological and epigenetic ages.<h4>Methods</h4>We examined three USA-based [Coronary Artery Risk Disease in Adults ...

<h4>Background</h4>Low levels of circulating 25-hydroxy-vitamin D [25(OH)D] have been shown to associate with prevalent attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), but few studies have examined the association between 25(OH)D during fetal development and risk of childhood ADHD.<h4>Methods</h4>Maternal plasma 25(OH)D was measured at 10-18 and 32-38 weeks of gestation, with sufficiency defined as 25(OH)D ...

<h4>Background</h4>In India, as elsewhere, the incidence of gall-bladder cancer (GBC) is substantially higher in women than in men. Yet, the relevance of reproductive factors to GBC remains poorly understood.<h4>Methods</h4>We used logistic regression adjusted for age, education and area to examine associations between reproductive factors and GBC risk, using 790 cases ...

<h4>Background</h4>Estimates indicate that household air pollution caused by solid fuel burning accounted for about 1.03 million premature mortalities in China in 2016. In the country's rural areas, more than half the population still relies on biomass fuels and coals for cooking and heating. Understanding the health impact of indoor air ... Read more >>

Inverse probability weights are increasingly used in epidemiological analysis, and estimation and application of weights to address a single bias are well discussed in the literature. Weights to address multiple biases simultaneously (i.e. a combination of weights) have almost exclusively been discussed related to marginal structural models in longitudinal settings ...
