TL;DR: Adherence to a healthy lifestyle, defined by major modifiable risk factors, was associated with longer telomere length in leukocytes, and this relationship was observed between the number of low-risk factors and the z scores.
Journal ArticleDOI

Vitamin D intake and risk of cardiovascular disease in US men and women
Qi Sun,Ling Shi,Eric B. Rimm,Edward Giovannucci,Frank B. Hu,JoAnn E. Manson,Kathryn M. Rexrode +6 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that a higher intake of vitamin D is associated with a lower risk of CVD in men but not in women, and further research is needed to confirm these findings.
Journal ArticleDOI
Antidepressants and Breast and Ovarian Cancer Risk: A Review of the Literature and Researchers' Financial Associations with Industry
Lisa Cosgrove,Ling Shi,David E. Creasey,David E. Creasey,Maria Anaya-McKivergan,Jessica A. Myers,Krista F. Huybrechts +6 more
TL;DR: The pre-clinical and clinical data are mixed in terms of showing an association between AD use and breast and ovarian cancer, and the possibility that ADs may exhibit a bi-phasic effect, whereby short-term use and/or low dose antidepressants may increase the risk of breast and Ovarian cancer, warrants further investigation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Multiple Chronic Diseases Associated With Tooth Loss Among the US Adult Population
TL;DR: The findings from this study will help to identify populations at increased risk for oral problems and nutritional deficits, thus the assessment of oral health should be evaluated further as an important component of chronic illness care.
