Eur J Neurosci. 2023 Aug 29. doi: 10.1111/ejn.16135. Online ahead of print. ABSTRACT Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) has been used to study the developing brain in early childhood, infants and in utero studies. In infants, number of used diffusion encoding directions has traditionally been smaller in earlier studies down to…

Do sleep problems explain the association between work stress and the trajectories of work ability from midlife to pensionable age?
J Occup Environ Med. 2023 Aug 28. doi: 10.1097/JOM.0000000000002954. Online ahead of print. ABSTRACT OBJECTIVE: This study examined whether mid-life work stress, defined as job strain and effort-reward imbalance (ERI), predicts work ability trajectories observed 12 years preceding the individual pensionable age. Additionally, the role of sleep problems as a…
Weekday and weekend physical activity patterns and their correlates among young adults
Scand J Med Sci Sports. 2023 Aug 25. doi: 10.1111/sms.14475. Online ahead of print. ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: Accelerometers enable assessment of within and between day variation in physical activity. The main aim was to examine weekday and weekend physical activity patterns among young adults. Additionally, correlates of the physical activity patterns…
Dietary Intake and Body Mass Index Influence the Risk of Islet Autoimmunity in Genetically At-Risk Children: A Mediation Analysis Using the TEDDY Cohort
Pediatr Diabetes. 2023;2023:3945064. doi: 10.1155/2023/3945064. Epub 2023 Feb 17. ABSTRACT BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVE: Growth and obesity have been associated with increased risk of islet autoimmunity (IA) and progression to type 1 diabetes. We aimed to estimate the effect of energy-yielding macronutrient intake on the development of IA through BMI. RESEARCH DESIGN AND…
Gastrointestinal Infections Modulate the Risk for Insulin Autoantibodies as the First-Appearing Autoantibody in the TEDDY Study
Diabetes Care. 2023 Aug 22:dc230518. doi: 10.2337/dc23-0518. Online ahead of print. ABSTRACT OBJECTIVE: To investigate gastrointestinal infection episodes (GIEs) in relation to the appearance of islet autoantibodies in The Environmental Determinants of Diabetes in the Young (TEDDY) cohort. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: GIEs on risk of autoantibodies against either insulin…
Structural brain correlates of non-verbal cognitive ability in 5-year-old children: Findings from the FinnBrain birth cohort study
Hum Brain Mapp. 2023 Aug 22. doi: 10.1002/hbm.26463. Online ahead of print. ABSTRACT Non-verbal cognitive ability predicts multiple important life outcomes, for example, school and job performance. It has been associated with parieto-frontal cortical anatomy in prior studies in adult and adolescent populations, while young children have received relatively little…
HLA Genotype and Probiotics Modify the Association Between Timing of Solid Food Introduction and Islet Autoimmunity in the TEDDY Study
Diabetes Care. 2023 Aug 14:dc230417. doi: 10.2337/dc23-0417. Online ahead of print. ABSTRACT OBJECTIVE: To study the interaction among HLA genotype, early probiotic exposure, and timing of complementary foods in relation to risk of islet autoimmunity (IA). RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: The TEDDY study prospectively follows 8,676 children with increased genetic…
Latent profile analysis of diurnal cortisol patterns at the ages of 2, 3.5, and 5 years: Associations with childcare setting, child individual characteristics, and maternal distress
Psychoneuroendocrinology. 2023 Jul 29;156:106345. doi: 10.1016/j.psyneuen.2023.106345. Online ahead of print. ABSTRACT This study performed latent profile analysis from more than 4000 saliva cortisol samples collected from children at the ages of 2 (T1), 3.5 (T2), and 5 years (T3). Three clearly different cortisol profiles were identified. The largest group at…
The association of previous night’s sleep duration with cognitive function among older adults: a pooled analysis of three Finnish cohorts
Eur J Ageing. 2023 Aug 3;20(1):32. doi: 10.1007/s10433-023-00779-6. ABSTRACT STUDY OBJECTIVES: Sleep duration has been shown to associate with cognitive function, but little is known about the short-term effect of sleep duration on the previous night. This study examines how usual sleep duration and previous night’s sleep duration are associated…
Genetic insights into resting heart rate and its role in cardiovascular disease
Nat Commun. 2023 Aug 2;14(1):4646. doi: 10.1038/s41467-023-39521-2. ABSTRACT Resting heart rate is associated with cardiovascular diseases and mortality in observational and Mendelian randomization studies. The aims of this study are to extend the number of resting heart rate associated genetic variants and to obtain further insights in resting heart rate…
