Department of Epidemiology and Biostatistics, School of Public Health, Tianjin Medical University, Tianjin, China; Tianjin Key Laboratory of Environment, Nutrition and Public Health, Tianjin, China; Aging Research Center, Department of Neurobiology, Health Care Sciences and Society Karolinska Institutet and Stockholm University, Stockholm, Sweden.

Background: A proinflammatory diet has been associated with a risk of individual chronic diseases, however, evidence on the association between inflammatory dietary patterns and the trajectory of chronic disease multimorbidity is sparse.

Objectives: We aimed to investigate the associations of a low-inflammatory diet with the multimorbidity trajectory.

Methods: Within the UK Biobank, 102,424 chronic disease-free participants (mean age 54.

Article Synopsis
  • - The study investigates the links between environmental factors and major neurodegenerative diseases (NDDs) like Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, ALS, and multiple sclerosis, using updated data and a two-sample Mendelian randomization approach.
  • - Researchers identified 28 significant causal associations, including new findings suggesting factors like alcohol intake, body fat percentage, and exercise may influence the risk of developing certain NDDs.
  • - The results show overlapping causal effects of various environmental factors, contributing to a better understanding of how these factors can establish risk profiles for neurodegenerative diseases.

Background & Aims: Evidence on the association between dietary inflammation and longevity is limited. We aimed to examine the association of a low-inflammatory diet with mortality and longevity, and to explore whether cardiometabolic diseases (CMDs) and lifestyle factors may play a role in this association.

Methods: Within the UK Biobank, 188,443 participants aged 39-72 years (mean 56.

Background: Whether a low-inflammatory diet relates to type 2 diabetes risk remains unclear. We examined the association between a low-inflammatory diet and risk of type 2 diabetes among normoglycemic and prediabetic participants. We also explored whether a low-inflammatory diet modifies genetic risk for type 2 diabetes.

Background: Dementia, mainly Alzheimer's disease (AD) and vascular dementia (VaD), remains a global health challenge. Previous studies have demonstrated the benefits of acupuncture therapy (AT) in improving dementia. Nevertheless, the therapeutic targets and integrated biological mechanisms involved remain ambiguous.

Background Although sleep disorders have been linked to cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), the association between sleep characteristics and CVDs remains inconclusive. We aimed to examine the association of nighttime sleep duration, daytime napping, and sleep patterns with CVDs and explore whether genetic and early-life environmental factors account for this association. Methods and Results In the Swedish Twin Registry, 12 268 CVD-free twin individuals (mean age=70.

Background: Risk genes linked to the development of gout have been identified, and lifestyle factors are related to gout risk. It remains unclear whether healthy lifestyle factors can mitigate the genetic risk of gout. Therefore, we aimed to explore whether and to what extent a healthy lifestyle can mitigate the risk of gout related to genetic factors.
