Measuring adverse childhood experiences by interviewing children at 9 and 10 years of age: Prevalence, concordance with mother-reports, posttraumatic stress disorder symptoms, and subjective experience of being asked about adverse childhood experiences in FinnBrain Birth cohort study
J Exp Child Psychol. 2025 Apr 18;256:106238. doi: 10.1016/j.jecp.2025.106238. Online ahead of print. ABSTRACT How children experience the screening of adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) is little studied. Moreover, the similarity between parental and child reports is unknown. We interviewed 9-year-olds (a subsample of the FinnBrain Birth Cohort Study; N =…
Impact of retirement transition on health, well-being and health behaviours: critical insights from an overview of reviews
Soc Sci Med. 2025 Apr 3;375:118049. doi: 10.1016/j.socscimed.2025.118049. Online ahead of print. ABSTRACT Retirement is a pivotal life course transition wich may have profound implications for health, well-being and health behaviours. Despite extensive research and theoretical debate, the impact of retirement on health remains inconclusive, with studies reporting positive, negative,…
The FinnBrain multimodal neonatal template and atlas collection
Commun Biol. 2025 Apr 11;8(1):600. doi: 10.1038/s42003-025-07963-7. ABSTRACT The accurate processing of neonatal and infant brain MRI data is crucial for developmental neuroscience but presents unique challenges that child and adult data do not. Tissue segmentation and image coregistration accuracy can be improved by optimizing template images and related segmentation…
Infant Subcortical Brain Volumes Associated with Maternal Obesity and Diabetes: A Large Multicohort Study
medRxiv [Preprint]. 2025 Mar 27:2025.03.25.25324641. doi: 10.1101/2025.03.25.25324641. ABSTRACT IMPORTANCE: Maternal diabetes (MD) and maternal obesity (MO) have been robustly established to confer health risks in offspring. Additionally, mounting evidence suggests that these fetal programming effects vary by sex, but whether these factors independently or interactively influence infant brain development remains…
Changes in Oral Health-Related Quality of Life According to Public Oral Health Procedures in Parents of Young Children From the FinnBrain Birth Cohort Study
Community Dent Oral Epidemiol. 2025 Apr 4. doi: 10.1111/cdoe.13039. Online ahead of print. ABSTRACT OBJECTIVES: The aim was to evaluate the association between public oral healthcare procedures and change in oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) over 4 years among parents in the FinnBrain Cohort Study, comparing those who did…
A large-scale genome-wide study of gene-sleep duration interactions for blood pressure in 811,405 individuals from diverse populations
Mol Psychiatry. 2025 Apr 4. doi: 10.1038/s41380-025-02954-w. Online ahead of print. ABSTRACT Although both short and long sleep duration are associated with elevated hypertension risk, our understanding of their interplay with biological pathways governing blood pressure remains limited. To address this, we carried out genome-wide cross-population gene-by-short-sleep and long-sleep duration…
Sleep disturbances, shift work, and epigenetic ageing in working-age adults: findings from the Young Finns study
Clin Epigenetics. 2025 Apr 2;17(1):55. doi: 10.1186/s13148-025-01860-w. ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: Sleep disturbances are known to have adverse effects on health, but knowledge on the effect of sleep disturbances on epigenetic ageing is limited. We investigated (1) whether symptoms of insomnia, obstructive sleep apnoea, sleep deprivation, and circadian rhythm lateness are associated…

Metabolic transition from childhood to adulthood based on two decades of biochemical time series in three longitudinal cohorts
Int J Epidemiol. 2025 Feb 16;54(2):dyaf026. doi: 10.1093/ije/dyaf026. ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: This is the first large-scale longitudinal study of children that describes the temporal trajectories of an extensive collection of metabolic measures that are relevant for lifelong cardiometabolic risk. We also provide a comprehensive picture on how metabolism develops into mature…
