Background: Whether material deprivation-related childhood socio-economic disadvantages (CSD) and care-related adverse childhood experiences (ACE) have different impacts on depressive symptoms in middle-aged and older people is unclear.

Methods: In the Guangzhou Biobank Cohort Study, CSD and ACE were assessed by 7 and 5 culturally sensitive questions, respectively, on 8,716 participants aged 50+. Depressive symptoms were measured by 15-item Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS).

Background: Mendelian randomization (MR) analyses from the West provide evidence that obesity causes lower 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D]. As Asian populations are prone to metabolic disorders at a lower body mass index (BMI), whether the association remains in Asian is unclear. We studied whether obesity causes vitamin D deficiency using MR analysis in Chinese.

Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to create and validate a prediction score for cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk specifically for hemodialysis patients in China.
  • It involved 388 patients over a follow-up period, identifying key predictors like age, hypertension, diabetes, and abnormal white blood cell count that were included in the final model.
  • The prediction score demonstrated reliable performance in distinguishing high-risk patients, suggesting it can help healthcare providers target at-risk individuals for better treatment strategies.

The aim of this paper is to develop 10-year cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk prediction models for the contemporary Chinese populations based on the Guangzhou Biobank Cohort Study (GBCS) and to compare its performance with models based on Framingham's general cardiovascular risk profile and the Prediction for Atherosclerotic CVD Risk in China (China-PAR) project. Subjects were randomly classified into the training (n = 15,000) and validation (n = 12,721) sets. During an average of 12.
