RESUMEN
OBJECTIVES: To examine the association between life-course body silhouette changes and oral conditions in adulthood. METHODS: At study recruitment (2008-2012), 5430 adults underwent a full-mouth clinical examination and recalled their body silhouettes at ages 8, 15, 25, 35 and 45. Life-course trajectories of body silhouettes were computed using group-based trajectory modelling. Gingival inflammation, dental plaque, masticatory units, numbers of healthy, missing, decayed and filled teeth at study recruitment were clustered. The associations between body silhouette trajectories and clusters of oral conditions were assessed by multinomial logistic regression. RESULTS: The final analysis included 4472 participants. Five body silhouette trajectories were established: lean-stable (30.0%), lean-increased (19.3%), moderate stable (18.1%), lean-marked increased (25.8%) and heavy stable (6.7%). Three clusters of oral conditions were identified: optimal oral health and preserved masticatory capacity (70.0%, cluster 1), moderate oral health and moderately impaired masticatory capacity (25.4%, cluster 2) and poor oral health and severely impaired masticatory capacity (4.7%, cluster 3). Participants with a lean-increased trajectory were 58% more likely than those with a lean-stable trajectory to be in cluster 3 (aOR 1.58 [95% CI 1.07; 2.35]) relative to cluster 1, independently of covariates measured at study recruitment and including age, sex, smoking, socioeconomic status, BMI, hypertension, type 2 diabetes, cholesterol and triglycerides. CONCLUSIONS: A life-course lean-increased body silhouette trajectory is associated with higher likelihood of poor oral health and severely impaired masticatory capacity in adulthood.

BACKGROUND: Primordial prevention may be a relevant strategy for the prevention of cancer. Given the commonality of risk factors and mechanisms between cancer and cardiovascular disease, we examined the associations between the number of ideal cardiovascular health metrics in midlife and incident cancer. METHODS: In 3 European cohorts (NutriNet-Santé and GAZEL, France; Whitehall II, United Kingdom), the number of ideal cardiovascular health metrics was determined at baseline (range 0-7). Follow-up for cancer events was until October 2020 (NutriNet-Santé), March 2017 (Whitehall II) and December 2015 (GAZEL). Cox regression was conducted in each cohort, and results were thereafter pooled using a random-effects model. RESULTS: Data were available on 39 718 participants. A total of 16 237 were from NutriNet-Santé (mean age 51.3 yr; 28% men), 9418 were from Whitehall II (mean age 44.8 yr; 68% men) and 14 063 were from GAZEL (mean age 45.2 yr; 75% men). The median follow-up was 8.1 years in NutriNet-Santé, 29.6 years in Whitehall II and 24.8 years in GAZEL, and yielded a total of 4889 cancer events. A greater number of ideal cardiovascular health metrics was associated with a lower overall cancer risk in each cohort, with an aggregate hazard ratio (HR) per 1 increment in number of ideal metrics of 0.91 (95% confidence interval [CI] 0.88-0.93). This association remained after removal of the smoking metric (aggregate HR per unit increment in number of ideal metrics: 0.94, 95% CI 0.90-0.97), and site-specific analysis demonstrated a significant association with lung cancer. INTERPRETATION: A greater number of ideal cardiovascular health metrics in midlife was associated with lower cancer risk, notably lung cancer. Primordial prevention of cardiovascular risk factors in midlife may be a complementary strategy to prevent the onset of cancer.
RESUMEN
Background A higher burden of cardiovascular disease risk factors has been reported in sexual minority populations. Primordial prevention may therefore be a relevant preventative strategy. The study's objectives are to estimate the associations of Life's Essential 8 (LE8) and Life's Simple 7 (LS7) cardiovascular health scores with sexual minority status. Methods and Results The CONSTANCES is a nationwide French epidemiological cohort study that recruited randomly selected participants older than 18 years in 21 cities. Sexual minority status was based on self-reported lifetime sexual behavior and categorized as lesbian, gay, bisexual, or heterosexual. The LE8 score includes nicotine exposure, diet, physical activity, body mass index, sleep health, blood glucose, blood pressure, and blood lipids. The previous LS7 score included 7 metrics without sleep health. The study included 169 434 cardiovascular disease-free adults (53.64% women; mean age, 45.99 years). Among 90 879 women, 555 were lesbian, 3149 were bisexual, and 84 363 were heterosexual. Among 78 555 men, 2421 were gay, 2748 were bisexual, and 70 994 were heterosexual. Overall, 2812 women and 2392 men declined to answer. In multivariable mixed effects linear regression models, lesbian (ß=-0.95 [95% CI, -1.89 to -0.02]) and bisexual (ß=-0.78 [95% CI, -1.18 to -0.38]) women had a lower LE8 cardiovascular health score compared with heterosexual women. Conversely, gay (ß=2.72 [95% CI, 2.25-3.19]) and bisexual (ß=0.83 [95% CI, 0.39-1.27]) men had a higher LE8 cardiovascular health score compared with heterosexual men. The findings were consistent, although of smaller magnitudes for the LS7 score. Conclusions Cardiovascular health disparities exist in sexual minority adults, particularly lesbian and bisexual women, who may represent a priority population for primordial cardiovascular disease prevention.

Background: The commonality of risk factors between cancer and cardiovascular disease suggests that primordial prevention (preventing the onset of risk factors) is a relevant strategy for cancer prevention. Objectives: This study sought to examine the association between baseline and change in the cardiovascular health (CVH) score and incident cancer. Methods: Using serial examinations of the GAZEL (GAZ et ELECTRICITE de France) study in France, we examined the associations between the American Heart Association's Life's Simple 7 CVH score (range: 0-to 14 [poor, intermediate, and ideal level of smoking, physical activity, body mass index, diet, blood pressure, diabetes status, or lipids]) in 1989/1990, their change over 7 years, and incident cancer and cardiac events up to 2015. Results: The study population included 13,933 participants (mean age: 45.3 ± 3.4 years, 24% women). After a median follow-up of 24.8 years (Q1-Q3: 19.4-24.9 years), 2,010 participants had an incident cancer and 899 a cardiac event. The risk of cancer (any site) decreased by 9% (HR: 0.91; 95% CI: 0.88-0.93) per 1-point increase in the CVH score in 1989/1990 compared with a 20% (HR: 0.80; 95% CI: 0.77-0.83) risk reduction for cardiac events. The risk of cancer decreased by 5% (HR: 0.95; 95% CI: 0.92-0.99) per unit of change in the CVH score between 1989/1990 and 1996/1997 compared with a 7% risk reduction for cardiac events (HR: 0.93; 95% CI: 0.88-0.98). These associations remained after omitting the smoking metric from the CVH score. Conclusions: Primordial prevention is a relevant strategy for the prevention of cancer in the population.
RESUMEN
Person-centered cardiovascular health (CVH) may facilitate cardiovascular disease primordial prevention in low resources settings. The study aims to assess the validity of person-centered CVH compared to gold standard measured CVH by examining the concordance between person-centered vs. measured CVH together with their respective association with incident cardiovascular disease events (CVD). Life's Simple 7 (LS7) CVH metrics, including non-smoking, Body Mass Index, diet, physical activity, blood glycemia, blood pressure, and blood cholesterol were collected from 19,473 adults participating in the e-cohort NutriNet-Santé study from 2011 to 2014 and were followed until September 2020. Clinical examinations and blood analyses defined the measured biological metrics, while diagnoses, medication, or treatment for type 2 diabetes, hypertension, and hypercholesterolemia defined person-centered biological metrics. Declared behavioral metrics were common for both measured and person-centered CVH. The study included 18,714 CVD-free participants (mean age 51 years, 73% women), among whom 16.52% and 38.75% had 5-7 ideal LS7 metrics according to measured and person-centered CVH, respectively. Weighted concordance of person-centered and measured CVH was 0.87 [0.86; 0.88]. Over median follow-up of 8.05 years, 749 CVD events occurred. There was a 7% (HR 0.93 [0.88; 0.99]) and 13% (HR 0.87 [0.83; 0.92]) risk reduction of CVD risk by additional measured and person-centered ideal metrics, respectively. In conclusion, person-centered CVH may represent a reliable alternative to measured CVH.

BACKGROUND: In recognition of the risk factors common between oral diseases and various chronic conditions and the intersection between oral health and some sustainable development goals, the current cross-sectional study was designed to quantify the burden of dental caries and identify factors associated with its occurrence in permanent teeth. METHODS: Using data from Egypt's population-based survey (2013-2014), two individual-level outcomes; past caries experience (DMFT > 0) and presence of untreated carious lesions (DT > 0) were assessed using the WHO basic methods for oral health surveys. Information on potential explanatory variables including sociodemographic characteristics, exposure to fluoridated water, dental attendance, and dental anxiety was gathered using a structured questionnaire. Stratified multistage cluster random sampling was used to recruit survey participants. Multivariable logistic regression was performed to identify significant potential risk factors for caries in the permanent dentition of Egyptians. FINDINGS: A total of 9,457 participants were included of which 70.3% had at least one untreated carious lesion. After adjusting for all covariates, analphabetic Egyptians were found to have significantly higher odds of caries experience in permanent dentition DMFT > 0 (OR 1.54, 95% CI [1.20-1.98]), DT > 0 (OR 1.62, 95% CI [1.32-2.00]). Males, however, had significantly lower caries risk DMFT > 0 (OR 0.75, 95% CI [0.67-0.85]), DT > 0 (OR 0.81, 95% CI [0.73-0.89]) when compared to females. Regarding age, mean DMFT scores were significantly lower in age groups (6-15 years) (OR 0.03, 95% CI [0.014; 0.082]), (16- 20 years) (OR 0.09, 95% CI [0.037; 0.23]), and (21-35 years) (OR 0.22, 95% CI [0.09; 0.53]) than among people ≥ 60 years. CONCLUSION: Addressing individual-level caries risk factors should be complemented by addressing upstream factors to reduce burden of untreated dental caries among Egyptians.
