The menopausal transition was associated in a prospective study with decreased health functioning in women who report menopausal symptoms.
TL;DR: The menopausal transition is associated with decreased health functioning in women who report menopausal symptoms, and Menopausal symptoms are strongly related to all aspects of health functioning assessed by the SF-36.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: A comprehensive analysis of common genetic variation on DNA methylation (DNAm) by using the Illumina EPIC array to profile samples from the UK Household Longitudinal study is undertaken and the utility of these data for interpreting the functional consequences of common Genetic variation associated with > 60 human traits is demonstrated.
Journal ArticleDOI
The mental health impact of COVID-19 and lockdown related stressors among adults in the UK.
TL;DR: Some COVID-19 policy responses such as furloughing may have been effective in mitigating the increase in CMD for some groups of employees despite some reduction in levels of pandemic and lockdown-related stressors by the middle of 2020.

TL;DR: Conventional and multivariate Mendelian randomisation analysis implicates a causal role for urate in the development of coronary heart disease, but these estimates might be inflated by hidden pleiotropy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Psychological coping styles and cortisol over the day in healthy older adults.
TL;DR: The results indicate that adaptive coping styles are related to low levels of cortisol over the day, suggesting that neuroendocrine pathways may partly mediate relationships between psychological coping and health.
