Matthew Suderman,Nada Borghol,Jane J. Pappas,Snehal M Pinto Pereira,M. E. Pembrey,Clyde Hertzman,Chris Power,Moshe Szyf +7 more
TL;DR: The observed genome-wide methylation profiles in adult DNA associated with childhood abuse justify the further exploration of epigenetic regulation as a mediating mechanism for long-term health outcomes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sedentary Behaviour and Biomarkers for Cardiovascular Disease and Diabetes in Mid-Life: The Role of Television-Viewing and Sitting at Work
TL;DR: Associations with cardiovascular disease and diabetes biomarkers in mid-adulthood differed for television-viewing and work sitting, and the role of sedentary behaviour may vary by leisure and work domains or the two indicators reflect differing associations with other disease-related influences.
Journal ArticleDOI
Full-field digital versus screen-film mammography: comparison within the UK breast screening program and systematic review of published data.
Sarah Vinnicombe,Snehal M Pinto Pereira,Valerie McCormack,Susan Shiel,Nicholas Perry,Isabel dos Santos Silva +5 more
TL;DR: Within a routine screening program, FFDM with hard-copy image reading performed as well as SFM in terms of process indicators; the meta-analysis was consistent with FFDM yielding detection rates at least as high as those for SFM.
Journal ArticleDOI
Depressive Symptoms and Physical Activity During 3 Decades in Adult Life: Bidirectional Associations in a Prospective Cohort Study
TL;DR: The relationship between activity and depressive symptoms was bidirectional, albeit more persistent during adult life in the direction from activity to depressive symptoms, and findings suggest that activity may alleviate depressive symptoms in the general population and, in turn, depressive Symptoms in early adulthood may be a barrier to activity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Child Neglect and Maltreatment and Childhood-to-Adulthood Cognition and Mental Health in a Prospective Birth Cohort
TL;DR: The study provides novel data that child neglect is associated with cognitive deficits in childhood/adolescence and decades later in adulthood, independent of mental health, and highlights the lifelong burden of child neglect on cognitive abilities and mental health.
