TL;DR: Folic acid supplementation may prevent oxidative stress-induced apoptosis and suppresses ROS levels through downregulating VPO1 as a consequence of changes in DNA methylation, which may contribute to beneficial effects on endothelial function.
Abstract: Endothelial cell injury and apoptosis play a primary role in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis. Moreover, accumulating evidence indicates that oxidative injury is an important risk factor for endothelial cell damage. In addition, low folate levels are considered a contributing factor to promotion of vascular disease because of the deregulation of DNA methylation. We aimed to investigate the effects of folic acid on injuries induced by oxidative stress that occur via an epigenetic gene silencing mechanism in ApoE knockout mice fed a high-fat diet and in human umbilical vein endothelial cells treated with oxidized low-density lipoprotein (ox-LDL). We assessed how folic acid influenced the levels of 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG, an oxidative DNA damage marker) and cellular apoptosis in in vivo and in vitro models. Furthermore, we analyzed DNA methyltransferase (DNMT) activity, vascular peroxidase 1 (VPO1) expression, and promoter methylation in human umbilical vein endothelial cells. Our data showed that folic acid reduced 8-OHdG levels and decreased apoptosis in the aortic tissue of ApoE-/- mice. Likewise, our in vitro experiments showed that folic acid protects against endothelial dysfunction induced by ox-LDL by reducing reactive oxygen species (ROS)-derived oxidative injuries, 8-OHdG content, and the apoptosis ratio. Importantly, this effect was indirectly caused by increased DNMT activity and altered DNA methylation at VPO1 promoters, as well as changes in the abundance of VPO1 expression. Collectively, we conclude that folic acid supplementation may prevent oxidative stress-induced apoptosis and suppresses ROS levels through downregulating VPO1 as a consequence of changes in DNA methylation, which may contribute to beneficial effects on endothelial function.

TL;DR: The findings do not support the notion that higher BMI increases risk of bipolar disorder and schizophrenia, and the fact that SNP-depression associations were estimated in relatively small samples reduced power to detect causal effects.
Abstract: Obesity is a highly prevalent risk factor for cardiometabolic diseases. Observational studies suggest that obesity is associated with psychiatric traits, but causal inference from such studies has several limitations. We used two-sample Mendelian randomization methods (inverse variance weighting, weighted median and MR-Egger regression) to evaluate the association of body mass index (BMI) with three psychiatric traits using data from the Genetic Investigation of Anthropometric Traits and Psychiatric Genomics consortia. Causal odds ratio estimates per 1-standard deviation increment in BMI ranged from 0.88 (95% CI: 0.62; 1.25) to 1.23 (95% CI: 0.65; 2.31) for bipolar disorder; 0.93 (0.78; 1.11) to 1.41 (0.87; 2.27) for schizophrenia; and 1.15 (95% CI: 0.92; 1.44) to 1.40 (95% CI: 1.03; 1.90) for major depressive disorder. Analyses removing potentially influential SNPs suggested that the effect estimates for depression might be underestimated. Our findings do not support the notion that higher BMI increases risk of bipolar disorder and schizophrenia. Although the point estimates for depression were consistent in all sensitivity analyses, the overall statistical evidence was weak. However, the fact that SNP-depression associations were estimated in relatively small samples reduced power to detect causal effects. This should be re-addressed when SNP-depression associations from larger studies become available.

TL;DR: Investigation of the presence and frequency of SCD and its relationship with anxiety, depression and sleep quality in patients with migraine found depression and short sleep duration during weekdays were related to SCD among adult migraineurs.
Abstract: Cognitive decline is a major concern in patients with migraine. Depression, anxiety, and/or poor sleep quality are well-known comorbidities of migraine, but available evidence on the subjective cognitive decline (SCD) is limited. This study aimed to investigate the presence and frequency of SCD and its relationship with anxiety, depression and sleep quality in patients with migraine. We enrolled patients with migraine who scored within the normal range of the Korean-Mini Mental State Examination and the Korean-Montreal Cognitive Assessment. Using the Subjective Cognitive Decline Questionnaire (SCD-Q), participants with ≥7 were assigned to the SCD group. The Headache Impact Test-6, Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7, Patient Health Questionnaire-9, and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index were used and analyzed between the two groups. A total of 188 patients with migraine, aged 38.1 ± 9.9 years, were enrolled. The mean SCD-Q score was 6.5 ± 5.5, and 44.7% of participants were identified as SCD. Migraineurs with SCD reported higher headache pain intensity and headache impact, as well as greater prevalence of anxiety, depression, reduced quality of sleep, and shorter sleep duration during weekdays compared to migraineurs without SCD. There were no significant differences in terms of age, sex, migraine type (chronic/episodic), medication, or sleep duration during weekends between the two groups. Upon multivariate logistic analysis adjusted for age, sex, headache characteristics, and psychological variables, depression was associated with increased risk of SCD (Odds ratio 1.31, 95% confidence interval 1.16–1.49) and sleep duration during weekdays was associated with decreased risk of SCD (Odds ratio 0.66, 95% confidence interval 0.44–0.97). A non-negligible number of patients with migraine complained of SCD. Depression and short sleep duration during weekdays were related to SCD among adult migraineurs.

TL;DR: A comprehensive analysis of the OHPPs confirmed a reduction effect on child DMFT, hence, lowering the financial burden of dental-care treatment on health institutions.
Abstract: The objective of this study was to evaluate the clinical effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of oral-health promotion programs (OHPPs) aiming to improve children's knowledge of favorable oral health behavior to lower decayed/-missing/-filled teeth (DMFT) while reducing the financial cost on health institutions. An electronic search was performed in seven databases. Studies were restricted to human interventions published in English. The search study followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) guidelines, and the risk of bias was assessed based on the Drummonds Checklist. A total of 1072 references were found. Among these, 19 full texts were included. Most studies had a strong quality. The overall pooled impact of OHPPs estimates children suffering from DMFT/S to have 81% lower odds of participating in OHPP (95% CI 61-90%, I2: 98.3%, p = 0). Furthermore, the program was shown to be effective at lowering the cost in 97 out of 100 OHPPs (95% CI 89-99%, I2: 99%, p = 0). Three subgroups analyses (age groups, study countries, studies of the last five years) were performed to evaluate the influence modification on the pooled effect. A comprehensive analysis of the OHPPs confirmed a reduction effect on child DMFT, hence, lowering the financial burden of dental-care treatment on health institutions.
