Objective: We investigated the associations between urban green and blue spaces and the incidence of accelerated ageing, which have rarely been studied.
Methods: Analyzed UK Biobank data (2006-2010) on 440,785 participants, focusing on urban green and blue space (UGBS). General linear models and logistics models assessed links between UGBS and accelerated ageing (Klemera-Doubal method, telomere length and frailty).
Background: Previous observational studies have suggested diabetic patients should synchronize their foods and nutrient intake with their biological rhythm; however, the optimal intake time of coffee and tea for reducing all-cause and disease-specific mortality in diabetes is still unknown. This study aims to examine by investigating the association of timing for coffee and tea consumption with long-term survival in people with diabetes.
Methods: A total of 5378 people with diabetes who enrolled in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey from 2003 to 2014 were recruited for this study.
Previous studies have suggested that diabetic patients should align their food and nutrient intake with their biological metabolic rhythm. However, the optimal timing of coffee consumption to prevent the development of chronic kidney disease (CKD) in diabetic patients remains unknown. This study aims to examine the association between the amount and timing of coffee consumption and CKD prevalence in diabetic patients.

Objective: To describe the level and trend of energy consumption and percentage energy from macronutrients of three meals in Chinese adults from 1997 to 2011.
Methods: The China Health and Nutrition Survey database(1997-2011) was used to analyze the trends of energy consumption of three meals and percentage energy from macronutrients of adult men and women aged 18-80 years. The dietary survey was conducted using the 3-day 24-hour dietary review survey method, and the energy consumption of three meals was calculated through self-reported.

Background: Exploring the association between Childhood Emotional Support (CES) and the mechanisms of aging is pivotal for understanding its potential to lessen the incidence of age-related pathologies and promote a milieu for healthy aging.
Methods: Utilizing data from the UK Biobank comprising nearly 160,000 individuals, comprehensive analyses were conducted to explore associations between CES levels and age-related diseases, biological age and aging hallmarks. Cox proportional hazards regression models were used to investigate the relationship between CES and the risk of hospitalization for age-related diseases.
Background: Although previous research has indicated a correlation between smoking and the mortality rate in patients with lung cancer, the impact of early life factors on this relationship remains unclear and requires further investigation. This study aimed to investigate the hypothesis that breastfeeding reduces the risk of lung cancer-related death.
Methods: The authors conducted a prospective cohort study involving 501 859 participants recruited from the United Kingdom Biobank to explore the potential association between breastfeeding and the risk of lung cancer mortality using a Cox proportional hazards model.

Objective: This study aims to prospectively examine the association between temperatures and the occurrence of type 2 diabetes (T2D).
Methods: We used the CPH models to analyze 103,215 non-diabetic participants in the UK Biobank cohort who answered questions about workplace temperature, to evaluate the survival relationship, and the interaction effects of working environmental temperature and T2D-related genetic risk scores (GRS) on the occurrence of T2D. The occurrence of T2D was assessed by hospital inpatient records.
Background: Maternal smoking during pregnancy (MSDP) is significantly linked to the short- or long-term health of offspring. However, little research has examined whether MSDP affect the aging rate of offspring.
Methods: This study used questionnaires to determine out whether the participants' mothers smoked when they were pregnant.
Background: Cellular communication among different types of vascular cells is indispensable for maintaining vascular homeostasis and preventing atherosclerosis. However, the biological mechanism involved in cellular communication among these cells and whether this biological mechanism can be used to treat atherosclerosis remain unknown. We hypothesized that endothelial autophagy mediates the cellular communication in vascular tissue through exosome-mediated delivery of atherosclerosis-related genes.

Objective: This study aimed to examine whether DEF and NFD are associated with CVD and all-cause mortality.
Methods: This was a prospective cohort study of a nationally representative sample from the United States, including 30,464 adults who participated in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2003-2014.
Background: Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is the most common type of diabetes. However, research on the relationship between blue light exposure and diabetes development is limited.
Objective: The present study aimed to investigate the relationship between blue light exposure and T2D incidence and whether it is affected by sleep duration, physical activity, outdoor activity time, and genetic susceptibility.
Aims: This study aims to examine the association between the rest-activity rhythm (RAR) and the incidence of type 2 diabetes (T2D).
Materials And Methods: In total, 97 503 participants without diabetes in the UK Biobank cohort were recruited. Wearable accelerometry was used to monitor circadian behaviour.
Hyperuricemia (HUA) is associated with a wide range of diseases and increases the public health burden on society as a whole. In addition to genetic variation, diet plays a crucial role in the prevention and treatment of HUA as an important modifiable behavior. The purpose of this study is to investigate whether food groups and consumption time are associated with HUA.

This study aimed to explore the association of 24 h behavior rhythm (activity-rest and feeding-fasting rhythm) with NAFLD. A total of 4502 adult participants with overweight/obesity from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2011-2014 were included in the current study.

ROS-induced endothelial dysfunction results in sustained and chronic vascular inflammation, which is central to atherosclerotic diseases. However, whether MAOB regulates endothelial oxidative stress and its related mechanism and whether gut microbiota mediates the anti-atherosclerosis effect of MAOB inhibitor remains unclear.

Certain monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibitors exhibit beneficial effects, such as reducing adiposity and metabolic disorders; however, their effects on hepatic lipid metabolism have not been revealed. This study aimed to investigate the effects of a selective MAO-B inhibitor, selegiline, on dyslipidemia and hepatic steatosis in mice induced by a high-fat diet (HFD).
