Older adults are vulnerable to mistimed food intake due to health and environmental changes; characterizing meal timing may inform strategies to promote healthy aging. We investigated longitudinal trajectories of self-reported meal timing in older adults and their associations with morbidity, genetic profiles, and all-cause mortality.MethodsWe analyzed data from 2945 community-dwelling older adults from the University… Continue reading #Meal timing trajectories in #older adults and their associations with #morbidity, genetic profiles, and #mortality

Cannabis use and risks of respiratory and all-cause morbidity and mortality: a population-based, data-linkage, cohort study
Introduction Although cannabis is frequently used worldwide, its impact on respiratory health is characterised by controversy. Objective To evaluate the association between cannabis use and respiratory-related emergency room (ER) visits and hospitalisations. Methods A retrospective, population-based, cohort study was carried out, linking health survey and health administrative data for residents of Ontario, Canada, aged 12–65… Continue reading Cannabis use and risks of respiratory and all-cause morbidity and mortality: a population-based, data-linkage, cohort study
Inequalities in all-cause and cause-specific mortality across the life course by wealth and income in Sweden: a register-based cohort study
Wealth inequalities are increasing in many countries, but their relationship to health is little studied. We investigated the association between individual wealth and mortality across the adult life course in Sweden.. ..Large inequalities in mortality by wealth were observed and their association with mortality remained more stable across the adult life course than inequalities by… Continue reading Inequalities in all-cause and cause-specific mortality across the life course by wealth and income in Sweden: a register-based cohort study
#Exercise capacity and #body mass index – important predictors of change in resting #heart rate
Resting heart rate (RHR) is an obtainable, inexpensive, non-invasive test, readily available on any medical document. RHR has been established as a risk factor for cardiovascular morbidity, is related to other cardiovascular risk factors, and may possibly predict them. Change in RHR over time (∆RHR) has been found to be a potential predictor of mortality..… Continue reading #Exercise capacity and #body mass index – important predictors of change in resting #heart rate
