South Asian women who migrated to the United Kingdom aged 5 years or older reported less asthma (6.5%) than those born in the United Kingdom or who migrated before age 5 (16.0%), with an adjusted odds ratio of 0.38 [95% Confidence Interval 0.23-0.64, P<0.001]. For those who ...
Although general and central adiposity measures each have profound deleterious effects on the risk ofMIin both sexes, a higher waist circumference and waist‐to‐hip ratio conferred a greater excess risk ofMIin women than in men. Waist‐to‐hip ratio was more strongly associated with the risk of...
There were 250 case-control pairs with approximately equal numbers of men and women. South Asians were less likely to have an STI (Odds ratio [OR] 0.66, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.45, 0.97) or to report risk factors for HIV (OR 0.45, 95% CI 0.28, 0.71). Offering and uptake of...
This study aimed to define the sex-divided reference intervals for platelet indices (mean platelet volume (MPV), platelet distribution width (PDW), platelet large cell ratio (P-LCR) and plateletcrit (PCT)) on the Sysmex XN-10. Methods A total of 2376 samples were assayed for full blood co...
We used Cox proportional hazards models to estimate sex-specific hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CI), and women-to-men ratio of HRs (RHR) for the association between CVD (coronary heart diseases (CHD), stroke, and heart failure) and incident dementia (all-cause dementia,...
to-hip ratio and triglycerides, all of which associate with an increased risk for cardio-metabolic disease and were highly correlated in women, not men (Table1). Interestingly, we also observed sex-specific associations between the female broad MDD PRS and serum CRP in women, but not in men...
Results Genetically predicted higher SHBG was associated with a lower risk of CKD in men (odds ratio [OR], 0.78 per SD; 95% confidence interval [95% CI], 0.65 to 0.93) but had no benefit in women. The effect in men remained in multivariable MR, allowing for testosterone (OR, 0.61; ...
In general men are at significantly greater risk than women from nearly all of the common cancers that occur in both sexes (with the exception of breast cancer) (White 2009, Wilkins 2006, DH 2007). This report will consider the current overall burden of cancer among men in the UK, estimat...
