Background: C-reactive protein (CRP) is an inflammatory biomarker that has been associated with an increased risk of future cognitive decline, alongside other biomarkers such as β-amyloid (Aβ). We sought to explore the relationship between CRP levels and the amyloid/tau/neurodegeneration (A/T/N) groups in elderly individuals with and without APOE-ε4.
Method: From 1203 participants of the Gothenburg H70 Birth Cohort study, born in 1944, plasma CRP levels were collected among 300 participants (159 men & 141 women) who did not have dementia.

The protective effect of parity has been demonstrated for cancer of the breast, ovary, and endometrium but no studies have estimated the effect of each subsequent birth in women with 10 or more children or grand-grand parity women, nor compared the linear relationship of the three cancers sites. Here, we aim to explore these relationships based on the Norwegian 1960 Census. The question of parity in present marriage was answered by 385,816 women born 1870-1915, a period with high fertility.

Background: Maternal obstetric characteristics have a key role in determining the occurrence of pregnancy-related disorders and subsequent neonatal outcomes. We aimed to investigate the mediating impact of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and hypertensive disorder of pregnancy (HDP) on the relationship between maternal advanced age, previous caesarean section, and the risk of either large for gestational age (LGA) or small for gestational age (SGA) infants.
Methods: We used data from a prospective multicentre cohort study conducted through China's National Maternal Near-miss Surveillance System from January 2012 to December 2021.
