Abstract

Objective: This prospective study investigated the cross‐sectional association between impaired oral health‐related quality of life (OHRQoL) and the prevalence of depressive symptoms, and the longitudinal association between impaired OHRQoL and development of depressive symptoms among older adults. Background: Previous studies have shown a relationship between poor oral health and depression among older adults; however, findings are inconsistent. Materials and Methods: Participants were 669 community‐dwelling older Japanese individuals aged≥55 years (mean: 67.8 ± 7.2 years). Data of 296 participants were used for longitudinal analyses. OHRQoL was evaluated using the Oral Impacts on Daily Performances scale. Impaired OHRQoL was defined as the presence of at least one impact on the scale. Depressive symptoms were assessed using the Japanese version of the Zung self‐rating depression scale with a cut‐off score of 40. Results: The cross‐sectional logistic regression model demonstrated that impaired OHRQoL was significantly associated with depressive symptoms (odds ratio [OR], 5.17; 95% confidence interval [CI], 2.99‐8.95) independent of age, sex, body mass index, hypertension, cerebrovascular/cardiovascular disease, smoking, drinking alcohol, education, cognitive function, objective oral health (dentition status) and oral health behaviour (dental visit within 1 year). Similarly, impaired OHRQoL predicted the development of depressive symptoms within 4 years in a fully adjusted longitudinal model (OR, 6.00; 95% CI, 1.38‐26.09). Conclusion: Impaired OHRQoL was identified as a potential comorbidity of depressive symptoms and a predictor for depressive disorder later in life. OHRQoL may be a useful clinical outcome for elder patients with regard to their mental and oral health. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Background We aimed to develop risk prediction models for new-onset home morning hypertension. Methods We followed up 978 participants without home hypertension in the general population of Ohasama, Japan (men: 30.1%, age: 53.3 years). The participants were divided into derivation (n = 489) and validation (n = 489) cohorts by their residential area. The C -statistics and calibration plots were assessed after the 5- or 10-year follow-up. Results In the derivation cohort, sex, age, body mass index, smoking, office systolic blood pressure (SBP), and home SBP at baseline were selected as significant risk factors for new-onset home hypertension (≥135/85 mm Hg or the initiation of antihypertensive treatment) using the Cox model. In the validation cohort, Harrell's C -statistic for the 5-/10-year home hypertension was 0.7637 (0.7195–0.8100)/0.7308 (0.6932–0.7677), when we used the full model, which included the significant risk factors in the derivation cohort. The calibration test revealed good concordance between the observed and predicted 5-/10-year home hypertension probabilities (P ≥ 0.19); the regression slope of the observed probability on the predicted probability was 1.10/1.02, and the intercept was −0.04/0.06, respectively. A model without home SBP was also developed; for the 10-year home hypertension risk, the calibration test revealed a good concordance (P = 0.19) but Harrell's C -statistic was 0.6689 (0.6266–0.7067). Conclusions The full model revealed good ability to predict the 5- and 10-year home morning hypertension risk. Although the model without home SBP is acceptable, the low C -statistic implies that home BP should be measured to predict home morning hypertension precisely. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Low gestational weight gain (GWG) is a known risk factor of low birthweight. Although studies have previously examined the associations between GWG and birthweight, the period-specific effects of low GWG in each trimester remain unclear. This study aimed to quantify the trimester-specific direct effects of low GWG in Japanese women on birthweight. Using perinatal data from a cohort study, we analyzed pregnant women delivered at an obstetrics/gynecology hospital between October 2006 and May 2010. We focused on women with a pre-pregnancy body mass index (BMI) below 25 kg/m2. The exposure was low GWG. The gestation period was subdivided into trimesters, and the direct effects of low trimester-specific GWG on birthweight were estimated using marginal structural models. These models were guided by a direct acyclic graph that incorporated potential confounders, including pre-pregnancy BMI, age, smoking during pregnancy, height, and parity. We analyzed 563 women and their families. The mean cumulative GWG by the end of the first, second, and third trimesters was 0.9, 6.2, and 10.7 kg, respectively. Approximately 14.0% of the women gained total weight below the range recommended by Japanese Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare. The direct effects of low GWG on birthweight were 65.9 g (95% confidence interval: 11.4, 120.5), −195.4 g (−263.4, −127.4), and −188.8 g (−292.0, −85.5) for the first, second, and third trimesters, respectively. Insufficient weight gain in the second and third trimesters had a negative impact on birthweight after adjusting for pre-pregnancy BMI and other covariates. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Background: To examine changes in psychological distress prevalence among pregnant women in Miyagi Prefecture, which was directly affected by the Great East Japan Earthquake and tsunami, and compare it with the other, less damaged areas of Japan. Methods: This study was conducted in conjunction with the Japan Environment and Children's Study. We examined 76,152 pregnant women including 8270 in Miyagi Regional Center and 67,882 in 13 other regional centers from the all-birth fixed data of the Japan Environment and Children's Study. We then compared the prevalence and risk of distress in women in Miyagi Regional Center and women in the 13 regional centers for 3 years after the disaster. Results: Women in the Miyagi Regional Center suffered more psychological distress than those in the 13 regional centers: OR 1.38 (95% CI, 1.03–1.87) to 1.92 (95% CI, 1.42–2.60). Additionally, women in the inland area had a consistently higher prevalence of psychological distress compared to those from the 13 regional centers: OR 1.67 (95% CI, 1.18–2.38) to 2.19 (95% CI, 1.60–2.99). Conclusions: The lack of pre-disaster data in the Japan Environment and Children's Study made it impossible to compare the incidence of psychological distress before and after the March 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake. However, 3 years after the Great East Japan Earthquake, the prevalence of pregnant women with psychological distress did not improve in Miyagi Regional Center. Further, the prevalence of mental illness in inland areas was consistently higher than that in the 13 regional centers after the disaster. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

A diminished nocturnal decline in blood pressure (BP) represents a risk factor for cardiovascular disease. To define daytime and nighttime ambulatory BP, clock time-dependent methods are used when information on diary-based sleeping time is unavailable. We aimed to compare fixed-clock intervals with diary records to identify nocturnal BP declines as a predictor of long-term cardiovascular risk among the general population. Data were obtained from 1714 participants with no history of cardiovascular disease in Ohasama, Japan (mean age, 60.6 years; 64.9% women). We defined extreme dippers, dippers, non-dippers, and risers as nocturnal systolic BP decline ≥20%, 10–19%. 0–9%, and <0%, respectively. Over a mean follow-up period of 17.0 years, 206 cardiovascular deaths occurred. Based on diary records, multivariable-adjusted hazard ratios (HRs) for cardiovascular death compared with dippers were 1.24 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.82–1.87) in extreme dippers, 1.21 (0.87–1.69) in non-dippers, and the highest HR of 2.31 (1.47–3.62) was observed in risers. Using a standard fixed-clock interval (daytime 09:00–21:00; nighttime 01:00–06:00), a nighttime 2 h-early shifted fixed-clock (daytime 09:00–21:00; nighttime 23:00–04:00), or a nighttime 2 h-late shifted fixed-clock (daytime 09:00–21:00; nighttime 03:00–08:00), the HR (95%CI) in risers compared with dippers was 1.57 (1.08–2.27), 2.02 (1.33–3.05), or 1.29 (0.86–1.92), respectively. Although use of diary records remains preferable, the standard and nighttime 2 h-early shifted fixed-clock intervals appear feasible for population-based studies. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]

Abstract

Objectives To examine whether number of remaining teeth and regular dental care affect incident functional disability in elderly Japanese adults. Design Prospective cohort study. Setting Tsurugaya district, Sendai, Japan. Participants Community-dwelling individuals aged 70 and older (N = 834). Measurements The outcome measurement was incident functional disability, defined as first certification of long-term care insurance in Japan, which is determined on the basis of a strictly established uniform nationwide standard. During a median follow-up of 7.9 years (interquartile range 4.8-7.9 years), information on long-term care insurance was obtained from the Sendai Municipal Authority. Oral health was assessed according to number of remaining teeth and presence or absence of regular dental care. Data were also collected on age, sex, body mass index, medical history, smoking, alcohol consumption, duration of education, depressive symptoms, cognitive impairment, physical functioning, and social support. Results Participants with 10 to 19 teeth (adjusted hazard ratio ( aHR) = 1.42, 95% confidence interval ( CI) = 1.03-1.94), one to nine teeth ( aHR = 1.46, 95% CI = 1.04-2.03), and no teeth ( aHR = 1.49, 95% CI = 1.03-2.14) were more likely to develop functional disability than those with 20 or more teeth. There was no significant difference in risk of functional disability between participants with 20 or more teeth and those with zero to 19 teeth who were receiving regular dental care, whereas those with zero to 19 teeth without regular dental care had a significantly greater risk of functional disability than those with 20 or more teeth ( HR = 1.46, 95% CI = 1.11-1.92). Conclusion Tooth loss was associated with greater risk of functional disability in community-dwelling elderly Japanese. Regular dental care might moderate the risk of functional disability in elderly individuals with missing teeth. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
