Sex differences in the association between diabetes and depressive symptoms: findings from Mexican National Health and Nutrition Survey 2018-2019.

Aims: We set out to investigate the potential sex differences in the association between diabetes and depressive symptoms by conducting an interaction analysis, and to investigate whether sex mediates the effect of diabetes on depressive symptoms.

Methods: We conducted analyses on cross-sectional data of adults aged 20 years or older in the Mexican National Health and Nutrition Survey 2018-2019 (ENSANUT 2018-2019). Diabetes was defined by self-reported medical diagnosis, and depressive symptoms were measured using the seven-item Centre for Epidemiologic Studies Depression scale.

Validity of Scottish predictors of child obesity (age 12) for risk screening in mid-childhood: a secondary analysis of prospective cohort study data-with sensitivity analyses for settings without various routinely collected predictor variables.

Objective: To analyse the Growing Up in Scotland cohort for predictors of obesity at age 12, present at school entry (age 5-6).

Methods: The initial model included literature-based risk factors likely to be routinely collected in high-income countries (HICs), as well as "Adverse/Protective Childhood Experiences (ACEs/PCEs)". Missing data were handled by Multiple Chained Equations.

Exploring the relationship between local food environments and obesity in UK, Ireland, Australia and New Zealand: a systematic review protocol.

Introduction: Obesity is a global pandemic that affects all socioeconomic strata, however, the highest figures have been observed in the most disadvantaged social groups. Evidence from the USA and Canada showed that specific urban settings encourage obesogenic behaviour in the population living and/or working there. We aim to examine the evidence on the association between local food environments and obesity in the UK, Ireland, Australia and New Zealand.
