From the Department of Pediatrics, UMass Chan School of Medicine, Worcester, MA (MGP, AE); Slone Epidemiology Center, Boston University School of Medicine, Boston, MA (FR, CP, SK, MC); Divisions of General Academic Pediatrics and Newborn Medicine, Mass General for Children, Boston, MA (DMS); Department of Pediatrics, Washington University School of Medicine, St Louis, MO (BC, HF, EC); Department of Pediatrics, UMass Chan Medical School-Baystate, Worcester, MA (KH); Department of Biostatistics, Boston University School of Public Health, Boston, MA (TH); and Department of Pediatrics, Boston Medical Center, Boston, MA (EMW).
Objectives: Sudden unexpected infant death (SUID) occurs disproportionately among opioid exposed newborns (OENs) compared to those unexposed. The extent that primary caregivers of OENs adhere to SUID-reducing infant care practices is unknown. We examined rates of SUID-reducing practices (smoking cessation, breastfeeding, and safe sleep [supine sleep, room-sharing not bed-sharing, nonuse of soft bedding or objects]) in a pilot sample of caregivers of OENs.

Background: Lifestyle and metabolic multi-domain approaches targeting several risk factors at a time are increasingly being recognized as critical for dementia prevention since single-factor approaches and one-size-fits-all interventions often fall short in substantially reducing the dementia burden. Therefore, we compared the effectiveness of several hypothetical midlife lifestyle interventions considered singly and in combination across two health approaches: high-risk subpopulations (targeted) and general population (untargeted).
Method: Data came from the combined 2006 and 2008 biomarker samples of the Health and Retirement Study (HRS, N = 12,219).
