Offspring Health

BackgroundThe prevalence of MS among children and adolescents continues to rise, which has become an escalating serious health issue worldwide. It had been reported that maternal current lifestyle had a strong independent correlation with offspring health. However, it is not clear whether comprehensive lifestyle of mother has an impact on the MS risk in offspring and the role of offspring’s lifestyle in it.Methods and ResultsWe included 4,837 mother-child pairs from a multi-centered cross-sectional study conducted in China. The information of maternal lifestyle was obtained by self-reported questionnaire, and metabolic syndrome (MS) in offspring was determined by anthropometric measurements and blood tests. Logistic regression models were employed to evaluate the association between maternal lifestyle and risk of MS in offspring. We found maternal healthy lifestyle was independently associated with lower risk of offspring MS, and the risk of MS in offspring decreased with the increased number of maternal ideal lifestyle factors. Although adolescents’ lifestyle did not fully explain the relationship between maternal lifestyle and risk of offspring MS, compared with those had less ideal lifestyle factors in both mothers and offspring, the risk of offspring MS was lower in those had more ideal lifestyle factors in both mothers and adolescents.ConclusionsHealthy lifestyle in mothers was associated with a lower risk of MS in offspring, which was independent of offspring’s lifestyle. These findings support mother-based lifestyle intervention could be an effective strategy to reduce the MS risk in adolescents.

Abstract Background: In India, the prevalence of overweight among adolescents is on the rise, setting the stage for an increase in metabolic syndrome (MS). This paper presents the national prevalence of MS in adolescents in India. Methods: A nationally representative data of adolescents (10–19 years) from the Comprehensive National Nutrition Survey was used. MS was defined based on the NCEP–ATP III criteria for adolescents. Bivariate analysis was used to report socio-demographic differentials in prevalence and to assess interstate variability. Multivariate logistic regression model was constructed to measure the association between socio-demographic characteristics and prevalence of MS. Census data from 2011 was projected to 2017 to calculate burden.Results: The prevalence of MS was 5.2% among adolescents. 11.9%, 15.4%, 26.0%, 31.9% and 3.7% had central obesity, high blood pressure, hypertriglyceridemia, low HDL-cholesterol and high fasting glucose, respectively. The prevalence was higher among males (5.7% vs. 4.7%, adjusted odds ratio (AOR): 1.3, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.0, 1.6), those residing in urban areas (7.9% vs 4.2%, AOR: 1.4, 95% CI: 1.1, 1.8), and from wealthier households as compared to their counterparts (8.3% vs. 2.4%, AOR: 3.4, 95% CI: 2.1, 5.5). There was wide interstate variability in the prevalence of MS (0.5% – 16.5%). In 2017, 14.2 million adolescents had MS in India.Conclusions: The prevalence of MS among adolescents in India is low and clustered in urban areas and richer households. Early prevention interventions promoting a healthy lifestyle, especially in high prevalence areas, are needed to keep MS from becoming a public health issue.

Causal Pathway

Background Although hypertension is a potential intermediate factor on the causal pathway of lifestyle factor with stroke risk, the joint relationship between healthy lifestyle and antihypertensive treatment with stroke risk is unclear. Methods We prospectively investigated the individual and joint effects of healthy lifestyle factors and antihypertensive treatment on total and type-specific stroke risk among 36,686 Finnish participants who were 25 to 74 years old and free of coronary heart disease and stroke at baseline. The Cox proportional hazards model was used to evaluate the associations between healthy lifestyle factors and hypertension subgroups with stroke risk. Results During a mean follow-up of 13.7 years, 1,478 people developed an incident stroke event (1,167 ischemic and 311 hemorrhagic). The risk of stroke was significantly decreased in people adhered to ≥3 healthy lifestyle factors (never smoking, normal weight, moderate/high level of physical activity, vegetable consumption ≥3 times/week, and light/moderate alcohol drinking) compared with those adhered to <3 healthy lifestyle factors and this association was present among participants with different hypertensive status. The risk of stroke was significantly increased in all hypertensive subgroups compared with the normotensive group. Compared with hypertensive subjects who did not use antihypertensive drugs and were adhered to ≥3 healthy lifestyle factors, the multivariable-adjusted hazard ratios in hypertensive subjects who used antihypertensive drugs and were adhered to <3 healthy lifestyle factors were 1.39 (95% CI 1.04-1.86) for total stroke, 1.42 (1.03-1.97) for ischemic stroke, 1.37 (0.72-2.58) for hemorrhagic stroke in men, and 2.27 (1.71-3.01) for total stroke, 2.31 (1.69-3.16) for ischemic stroke, 2.21 (1.16-4.23) for hemorrhagic stroke in women, respectively. Only hypertensive men but not women who used antihypertensive drugs and were adhered to ≥3 healthy lifestyle factors had decreased risks of total and ischemic stroke compared with those who did not use antihypertensive drugs and were adhered to <3 healthy lifestyle factors. Conclusions The present study demonstrates our study demonstrates that a healthy lifestyle significantly decreases the risks of total, ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke in different hypertensive status in both men and women. A healthy lifestyle may be more effective in preventing stroke than antihypertensive treatment in hypertensive subjects.
