Loneliness is associated with adverse health behaviour and obesity: a Danish population-based study of 122,258 individuals.
BMC Public Health
January 2025
Public Health Research, DEFACTUM, Central Denmark Region, Aarhus, Denmark.
Background: Loneliness is a public health concern associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Adverse health behaviours and a higher body mass index (BMI) have been proposed as key mechanisms influencing this association. The present study aims to examine the relationship between loneliness, adverse health behaviour and a higher BMI, including daily smoking, high alcohol consumption, physical inactivity, unhealthy dietary habits, and obesity in men and women and across different life stages.

The hypothalamic neuropeptide system of orexin (hypocretin) neurons provides projections throughout the neuraxis and has been linked to sleep regulation, feeding and motivation for salient rewards including drugs of abuse. However, relatively little has been done to examine genes associated with orexin signaling and specific behavioral phenotypes in humans. Here, we tested for association of twenty-seven genes involved in orexin signaling with behavioral phenotypes in humans.

Division of Preventative Medicine, Brigham and Women's Hospital, Boston, Massachusetts, USA.
Objective: To compare physical activity (PA) over midlife between (1) former collegiate athletes and non-athletes and (2) among athletes in different sports.
Methods: The Harvard Alumni Health Study (HAHS) is a prospective cohort study of male undergraduates who completed serial questionnaires regarding PA and health status between 1962 and 1993. PA was categorised by intensity (<3 METs, light; 3 to <6 METs, moderate; ≥6 METs, vigorous), and energy expenditure (kilocalories (kcal)/week) was estimated at each intensity and in total.
The Cross-Sectional Association Between Ultra-Processed Food Intake and Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatotic Liver Disease.

January 2025
Section of Preventive Medicine and Epidemiology, Department of Medicine, Chobanian and Avedisian School of Medicine, Boston University; Department of Health Sciences, Sargent College of Health and Rehabilitation Sciences, Boston University. Electronic address:
Background And Aims: The prevalence of Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatotic Liver Disease has increased in parallel with a rise in consumption of ultra-processed foods (UPF), but little is known about their association.
Methods: We cross-sectionally examined associations of UPF with hepatic steatosis and fibrosis in 2,458 (mean age 54 years; 55.9% women) community-dwelling adults who completed vibration-controlled transient elastography and a food frequency questionnaire.
[Clinical phenotype of abdominal obesity and dynapenia: Brazilian Longitudinal Study of Aging (ELSI-Brazil)].
Cad Saude Publica

Universidade Estadual de Campinas, Campinas, Brasil.
This study aims to examine the prevalence of abdominal obesity-dynapenia phenotype, identified by the presence of abdominal obesity and dynapenia, and understand its associated factors with a representative sample of the Brazilian population. Data were collected from the baseline of the Brazilian Longitudinal Study of Aging (ELSI-Brasil) 2015-2016. Abdominal obesity was determined by a waist-to-height ratio ≥ 0.
