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…

Anal Chem. 2025 Apr 1. doi: 10.1021/acs.analchem.5c01621. Online ahead of print. NO ABSTRACT PMID:40167583 | DOI:10.1021/acs.analchem.5c01621…
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…
Blood pressure in childhood, young- and mid-adulthood: association with carotid plaque severity
Eur Heart J. 2025 Mar 25:ehaf139. doi: 10.1093/eurheartj/ehaf139. Online ahead of print. ABSTRACT BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Blood pressure (BP) is a key modifiable risk factor for atherosclerosis. How BP across different life stages associates with carotid plaque in mid-adulthood remains unclear, which is the aim of this study. METHODS: The…
Incidence of new onset arterial hypertension after metabolic bariatric surgery: an 8-year prospective follow-up with matched controls
J Hypertens. 2025 Feb 24. doi: 10.1097/HJH.0000000000003993. Online ahead of print. ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: Metabolic bariatric surgery (MBS) reduces the risk of new-onset hypertension; however, it is unclear whether this effect varies according to patient sex, age, or socioeconomic background. This study aimed to assess the risk of new-onset arterial hypertension…
Association of Paternal BMI and Diet During Pregnancy with Offspring Birth Measures: The STEPS Study
Nutrients. 2025 Feb 28;17(5):866. doi: 10.3390/nu17050866. ABSTRACT BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: Maternal Body Mass Index (BMI), diet quality, and their associated effects on offspring birth measures are well-established. Emerging evidence, largely from animal studies, has indicated paternal factors can influence offspring birth outcomes. However, this effect is poorly understood in humans. Our aim…
Association of neighbourhood and individual-level socioeconomic disadvantage in childhood and adulthood with cognitive function in mid-adulthood: Cardiovascular Risk in Young Finns Study
Am J Epidemiol. 2025 Mar 7:kwaf032. doi: 10.1093/aje/kwaf032. Online ahead of print. ABSTRACT Socioeconomic disadvantage at individual level is associated with poor cognitive outcomes but the link of neighbourhood disadvantage with cognitive function is unclear. We used data from Young Finns Study, a population-based cohort, to examine the associations of…
The association of childhood HDL cholesterol with atherosclerotic CVD events in adults: findings from the International Childhood Cardiovascular Cohort Consortium
Eur J Prev Cardiol. 2025 Mar 5:zwaf117. doi: 10.1093/eurjpc/zwaf117. Online ahead of print. ABSTRACT AIMS: The role of adult HDL-C in atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) faces challenges from Mendelian randomisations and drug trials. However, the association between childhood HDL-C and its changes and adult ASCVD remains undefined. This study aimed…
