TL;DR: The Whitehall II study identified 195 SNPs in 16 genes/regions associated with 3 major lipid fractions and 2 apolipoprotein components at p<10(-5), with the associations being broadly concordant with prior genome-wide analysis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cross-sectional versus prospective associations of sleep duration with changes in relative weight and body fat distribution : the Whitehall II Study
Saverio Stranges,Francesco P. Cappuccio,Ngianga-Bakwin Kandala,Michelle A. Miller,Frances M. Taggart,Meena Kumari,Jane E. Ferrie,Martin J. Shipley,Eric J. Brunner,Michael Marmot +9 more
TL;DR: There is no temporal relation between short duration of sleep and future changes in measures of body weight and central adiposity and the Whitehall II Study found that this has not been confirmed prospectively.
Journal ArticleDOI
Life-course influences on health in British adults: effects of socio-economic position in childhood and adulthood
Chris Power,Kate Atherton,David P. Strachan,Peter Shepherd,Elizabeth Fuller,Adrian Davis,Ian Gibb,Meena Kumari,Gordon D.O. Lowe,Gary J. Macfarlane,Jugnoo S Rahi,Bryan Rodgers,Stephen Stansfeld +12 more
TL;DR: Adverse SEP in childhood is associated with a poorer health profile in mid-adulthood, independently of adult social position, and across diverse measures of disease risk and physical and mental functioning.
Journal ArticleDOI
Gender Differences in the Cross-Sectional Relationships Between Sleep Duration and Markers of Inflammation: Whitehall II Study
Michelle A. Miller,Ngianga-Bakwin Kandala,Mika Kivimäki,Meena Kumari,Eric J. Brunner,Gordon D.O. Lowe,Michael Marmot,Francesco P. Cappuccio +7 more
TL;DR: The relationship between self-reported sleep duration and interleukin-6 and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein and hs-CRP was examined in individuals from the Whitehall II study to examine the relationships between sleep and inflammatory markers because these may be important in the development of cardiovascular disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
