Menopausal Age in Relation to Smoking
Olof Lindquist,Calle Bengtsson +1 more
TL;DR: The results indicate that smoking per se is the main factor in the increased number of smokers among women with precocious menopause, and can probably explain part of the overrepresentation of women with pre-menopausal syndrome among those who have myocardial infarction.
Journal ArticleDOI
Oral health and obesity indicators
TL;DR: The number of teeth, the number of restored teeth, xerostomia, dental visiting habits and self-perceived health were associated with both total and central adiposity, independent of age and SES.
Journal ArticleDOI
Peak expiratory flow and risk of cardiovascular disease and death a 12-year follow-up of participants in the population study of women in gothenburg, sweden
TL;DR: The findings indicate that measuring peak expiratory flow is a simple procedure to identify women with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease or death.
Journal ArticleDOI
Common psychosocial stressors in middle-aged women related to longstanding distress and increased risk of Alzheimer's disease: a 38-year longitudinal population study
Lena Johansson,Xinxin Guo,Tore Hällström,Tore Hällström,Maria C. Norton,Margda Waern,Svante Östling,Calle Bengtsson,Ingmar Skoog +8 more
TL;DR: It is shown that common psychosocial stressors may have severe and long-standing physiological and psychological consequences and more studies are needed to confirm these results and investigate whether more interventions such as stress management and behavioural therapy should be initiated in individuals who have experienced psychossocial stressors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Population studies of diet and obesity.
TL;DR: Bias due to self-selection and selective dietary under-reporting may produce consequences in epidemiological studies that are both unpredictable and complex, and recent findings involving dietary fat intake and regional adiposity in a population-based study of women are concluded.
