RESUMO

Introduction: To examine the interaction between lifestyle habits and the COVID-19 vaccinations for preventing SARS-CoV-2 infection, we analyzed 11,016 adult participants registered in the Tohoku Medical Megabank Project Birth and Three-Generation Cohort Study. Methods: Lifestyle variables, including regular exercise, smoking and drinking habits, sleep status, body mass index, and daily breakfast consumption, were assessed from 2014 to 2019 using baseline questionnaires. Information on SARS-CoV-2 infection and the COVID-19 vaccination were also collected from March 2020 to May 2023. The study period was divided into two in the postvaccination phase: the first period (the beginning of the vaccination program) and the second period (the fourth shot onward). Results: In the Cox proportional-hazards model analysis, the five-time vaccinations group showed a significantly lower risk of SARS-CoV-2 infection adjusted age, sex, underlying health condition, and lifestyle variables (hazard ratio [HR] 0.81, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.76-0.86). Logistic regression analysis revealed that a higher number of vaccinations was significantly associated with a low risk of SARS-CoV-2 infection regardless of lifestyle habits (three times in the first period: odds ratio [OR] 0.19, 95% CI 0.15-0.24; five times in the second period: OR 0.07, 95% CI 0.05-0.11 vs. none). Regarding lifestyle habits, the risk reduction in those who had sleep satisfaction (OR 0.12, 95% CI 0.08-0.18) was slightly larger than in those who had sleep dissatisfaction (OR 0.23, 95% CI 0.17-0.32) in the group with the highest number of vaccinations in the first period; however, this interaction was hardly confirmed in the second period when the number of infected cases significantly increased. Conclusions: Our findings indicated that a higher number of COVID-19 vaccinations was associated with reduced risk of SARS-CoV-2 infection; otherwise, we may need to understand the advantages and limitations of a healthy lifestyle for preventing infection depending on the situation with vaccinations and infection spreading.

RESUMO

Aim: To examine the association of the combination of taking neuropsychiatric medications from the onset of pregnancy to mid-pregnancy and maternal psychological distress at mid-pregnancy, with children's behavioral problems. Methods: Neuropsychiatric medication use from the onset of pregnancy to mid-pregnancy was defined by the self-reported name of the neuropsychiatric medication in the questionnaire in early and mid-pregnancy. Maternal psychological distress was defined by the Kessler Psychological Distress Scale (K6) ≥13 on the questionnaire in mid-pregnancy. We classified the participants into four categories based on the combination of taking neuropsychiatric medications and psychological distress: "None," "Medications only," "K6 ≥ 13 only," and "Both." Children's behavioral problems were assessed using the Child Behavior Checklist for Ages 1½-5 (CBCL) at 2 years of age. The clinical ranges of the internalizing and externalizing scales of the CBCL were defined as behavioral problems. We conducted a multivariable logistic regression analysis to examine the associations between the four categories of maternal exposure and children's behavioral problems. Results: Compared with the "None" category (n = 9873), the "K6 ≥ 13 only" category (n = 308) was statistically significantly associated with internalizing and externalizing problems. In contrast, the "Medications only" (n = 93) and "Both" (n = 22) categories were not statistically significantly associated with internalizing and externalizing problems, although the point estimates of the odds ratio in the "Both" category were relatively high (1.58 for the internalizing problem and 2.50 for the externalizing problem). Conclusion: The category of mothers taking neuropsychiatric medications and having no psychological distress during pregnancy was not associated with children's behavioral problems in the present population.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: To elucidate the status of medication use among pregnant women in Japan, by means of a multigenerational genome and birth cohort study: the Tohoku Medical Megabank Project Birth and Three-Generation Cohort Study (TMM BirThree Cohort Study). METHODS: Questionnaires were distributed to pregnant women participating in the TMM BirThree Cohort Study (from July 2013 to March 2017) around 12 weeks (early pregnancy) and 26 weeks (middle pregnancy). We analysed medication use over three periods: (1) 12 months prior to pregnancy diagnosis, (2) the period between pregnancy diagnosis and around week 12 of pregnancy, and (3) post around week 12 of pregnancy. RESULTS: In total, 19,297 women were included in the analysis. The proportion of pregnant women using medications was 49.0% prior to pregnancy diagnosis, 52.1% from diagnosis to week 12, and 58.4% post week 12 of pregnancy. The most frequently prescribed medications were loxoprofen sodium hydrate (5.5%) prior to pregnancy diagnosis, magnesium oxide (5.9%) from diagnosis to week 12, and ritodrine hydrochloride (10.5%) post week 12 of pregnancy. The number of women who used suspected teratogenic medications during early pregnancy was 96 prior to pregnancy diagnosis, 48 from diagnosis to week 12, and 54 post week 12 of pregnancy. CONCLUSION: We found that ~ 50% of the pregnant women used medications before and during pregnancy and some took potential teratogenic medications during pregnancy. In birth genomic cohort study, it is expected that investigations into the safety and effectiveness of medications used during pregnancy will advance.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Developmental delay at an early age indicates the probability of continued problems after school age. Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP) are associated with developmental delays in offspring, with inconsistent outcomes. Neonatal outcomes vary according to HDP exposure and are relevant to development in later years. Here we aimed to clarify the relationship between HDP and developmental delay in offspring and whether neonatal outcomes mediate this association. MATERIAL AND METHODS: We used data from 5934 mother-child pairs from the Tohoku Medical Megabank Project Birth and Three-Generation Cohort Study, a prospective cohort study conducted in Japan between July 2013 and March 2017. The Ages and Stages Questionnaires, third edition, at 24 and 42 months of age, measured developmental delay in five areas. We performed multivariate quasi-Poisson regression and causal mediation analysis by neonatal outcomes. RESULTS: At 24 months of age, compared to offspring born from normotensive mothers, offspring born from HDP-affected mothers were more likely to experience developmental delay (risk ratio [RR] 1.29, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.09-1.52) in the areas of communication (RR 1.21, 95% CI: 1.00-1.45) and personal-social (RR 1.15, 95% CI: 1.03-1.28). This association was mediated by neonatal outcomes: preterm birth, neonatal asphyxia, NICU admission, and neonatal small head circumference. No association was observed between HDP and developmental delay at 42 months of age. CONCLUSIONS: Exposure to HDP during fetal life is associated with offspring developmental delay. This association is partly mediated by neonatal outcomes.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Japanese traditional (Kampo) medicines containing ephedra may be used to treat colds during pregnancy. There are reports that ephedrine, a component of ephedra, has a risk of teratogenicity; however, the evidence remains equivocal. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to evaluate the risk of major congenital malformations (MCMs) associated with exposure to Kampo medicines containing ephedra during the first trimester of pregnancy using the Tohoku Medical Megabank Project Birth and Three-Generation Cohort Study (TMM BirThree Cohort Study). METHODS: To 23,730 mother-infant pairs who participated in the TMM BirThree Cohort Study from July 2013 to March 2017, questionnaires in early and middle pregnancy were distributed approximately at weeks 12 and 26 of pregnancy, respectively. Infants' risk of MCMs in women who used Kampo medicines containing ephedra or acetaminophen during the first trimester was assessed, and the odds ratios (ORs) were estimated with unadjusted and adjusted analyses. RESULTS: Among 20,879 women, acetaminophen and Kampo medicines containing ephedra were used in 665 (3.19%) and 376 (1.80%) women, respectively, in the first trimester. Among the infants born to the mothers who used acetaminophen or Kampo medicine containing ephedra during the first trimester, 11 (1.65%) and 8 (2.13%), respectively, had overall MCMs. OR of overall MCMs was higher in women who used Kampo medicines containing ephedra than in those who used acetaminophen in the first trimester (adjusted OR, 1.45; 95% confidence interval (CIs), 0.57-3.71); however, the difference was not statistically significant. CONCLUSIONS: In this study, there was no statistically significant association between the use of Kampo medicines containing ephedra during the first trimester of pregnancy and the risk of MCMs. Although some point estimates of ORs exceeded 1.00, the absolute magnitude of any increased risks would be low.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Although an association between maternal nutritional intake and developmental delays in children has been demonstrated, the association of the timing of meal intake and development delays remains unclear. We examined the association between breakfast intake frequency before and during pregnancy and developmental delay in children. METHODS: Of the pregnant women who participated in the Tohoku Medical Megabank Project Three-Generation Cohort Study, 7491 answered the required questions and were analyzed. The frequency of breakfast intake from pre- to early pregnancy and from early to mid-pregnancy was classified into four groups: daily, and 5-6, 3-4, and 0-2 times/week. Child developmental delays at age 2 and 3.5 years were assessed using the Ages & Stages Questionnaire, Third Edition. Logistic regression models were constructed to examine the association between breakfast intake frequency in pregnant women and developmental delays in children aged 2 and 3.5 years. RESULTS: The proportion of pregnant women who had breakfast daily was 78.1% in pre- to early pregnancy, and 82.2% in early to mid-pregnancy. The proportion of children with developmental delays was 14.7% and 13.4% at age 2 and 3.5 years, respectively. Compared with the risk in children of women who had breakfast daily from pre- to early pregnancy, children of women who had breakfast 0-2 times/week had a higher risk of developmental delays at 2 years of age: odds ratio (OR) 1.30, (95% confidence interval [CI], 1.02-1.66). The risk of developmental delays at age 2 years increased in the children of women who had breakfast 0-2 times/week in early to mid- pregnancy: OR 1.75 (95% CI, 1.32-2.32). The risk of developmental delays at age 3.5 years did not increase in the children of women who had breakfast 0-2 times/week from pre- to early and early to mid-pregnancy: OR 1.06 (95% CI, 0.81-1.39 and OR 1.15 (95% CI 0.84-1.57), respectively. CONCLUSION: For women with a low frequency of breakfast intake from pre- to mid-pregnancy there was an association with developmental delays in their children at age 2, but not at 3.5 years.

RESUMO

Importance: Whether some domains of child development are specifically associated with screen time and whether the association continues with age remain unknown. Objective: To examine the association between screen time exposure among children aged 1 year and 5 domains of developmental delay (communication, gross motor, fine motor, problem-solving, and personal and social skills) at age 2 and 4 years. Design, Participants, and Setting: This cohort study was conducted under the Tohoku Medical Megabank Project Birth and Three-Generation Cohort Study. Pregnant women at 50 obstetric clinics and hospitals in the Miyagi and Iwate prefectures in Japan were recruited into the study between July 2013 and March 2017. The information was collected prospectively, and 7097 mother-child pairs were included in the analysis. Data analysis was performed on March 20, 2023. Exposure: Four categories of screen time exposure were identified for children aged 1 year (<1, 1 to <2, 2 to <4, or ≥4 h/d). Main Outcomes and Measures: Developmental delays in the 5 domains for children aged 2 and 4 years were assessed using the Japanese version of the Ages & Stages Questionnaires, Third Edition. Each domain ranged from 0 to 60 points. Developmental delay was defined if the total score for each domain was less than 2 SDs from its mean score. Results: Of the 7097 children in this study, 3674 were boys (51.8%) and 3423 were girls (48.2%). With regard to screen time exposure per day, 3440 children (48.5%) had less than 1 hour, 2095 (29.5%) had 1 to less than 2 hours, 1272 (17.9%) had 2 to less than 4 hours, and 290 (4.1%) had 4 or more hours. Children's screen time was associated with a higher risk of developmental delay at age 2 years in the communication (odds ratio [OR], 1.61 [95% CI, 1.23-2.10] for 1 to <2 h/d; 2.04 [1.52-2.74] for 2 to <4 h/d; 4.78 [3.24-7.06] for ≥4 vs <1 h/d), fine motor (1.74 [1.09-2.79] for ≥4 vs <1 h/d), problem-solving (1.40 [1.02-1.92] for 2 to <4 h/d; 2.67 [1.72-4.14] for ≥4 vs <1 h/d), and personal and social skills (2.10 [1.39-3.18] for ≥4 vs <1 h/d) domains. Regarding risk of developmental delay at age 4 years, associations were identified in the communication (OR, 1.64 [95% CI, 1.20-2.25] for 2 to <4 h/d; 2.68 [1.68-4.27] for ≥4 vs <1 h/d) and problem-solving (1.91 [1.17-3.14] for ≥4 vs <1 h/d) domains. Conclusions and Relevance: In this study, greater screen time for children aged 1 year was associated with developmental delays in communication and problem-solving at ages 2 and 4 years. These findings suggest that domains of developmental delay should be considered separately in future discussions on screen time and child development.

RESUMO

To examine whether body type at birth, body weight, and obesity in early childhood are associated with overweight/obesity during school age and puberty. Data from maternal and child health handbooks, baby health checkup information, and school physical examination information of participants at birth and three-generation cohort studies were linked. Association between body type and body weight at different time intervals (at birth and at 1.5, 3.5, 6, 11, and 14 years of age) were comprehensively analyzed using a multivariate regression model adjusted for gender, maternal age at childbirth, maternal parity, and maternal body mass index, and drinking and smoking statuses at pregnancy confirmation. Children who are overweight in young childhood had a greater risk of being overweight. Particularly, overweight at one year of age during checkup was associated with overweight at 3.5 years (adjusted odds ratio (aOR), 13.42; 95% confidence interval (CI), 4.46-45.42), 6 years (aOR, 6.94; 95% CI, 1.64-33.46), and 11 years (aOR, 5.22; 95% CI, 1.25-24.79) of age. Therefore, being overweight in young childhood could increase the risk of being overweight and obese during school age and puberty. Early intervention in young childhood may be warranted to prevent obesity during school age and puberty.
