RESUMO
BACKGROUND & AIMS: Evidence on the impact of beverage consumption on depression is limited in the Asian population. Specifically, there is little information available on vegetable and fruit juices, while whole vegetables and fruits are reportedly protective against depression. Furthermore, evidence is scarce in differentiating the impacts of sweetened and black coffee. We aimed to examine the association of the consumption of total sugary drinks, carbonated beverages, vegetable and fruit juices, sweetened and black coffee, and green tea with subsequent depression in a general population sample. METHODS: We studied individuals without a history of cancer, myocardial infarction, stroke, diabetes, or depression at baseline in 2011-2016, with a five-year follow-up. We used Poisson regression models and the g-formula, thereby calculating the risk difference (RD) for depression. Multiple sensitivity analyses were conducted. Missing data were handled using random forest imputation. We also examined effect heterogeneity based on sex, age, and body mass index by analyzing the relative excess risk due to interaction and the ratio of risk ratios. RESULTS: In total, 94,873 individuals were evaluated, and 80,497 completed the five-year follow-up survey for depression. Of these, 18,172 showed depression. When comparing the high consumption group with the no consumption group, the fully adjusted RD (95% CI) was 3.6% (2.8% to 4.3%) for total sugary drinks, 3.5% (2.1% to 4.7%) for carbonated beverages, 2.3% (1.3% to 3.4%) for vegetable juice, 2.4% (1.1% to 3.6%) for 100% fruit juice, and 2.6% (1.9% to 3.5%) for sweetened coffee. In contrast, the fully adjusted RD (95% CI) was -1.7% (-2.6% to -0.7%) for black coffee. The fully adjusted RD for green tea did not reach statistical significance. The results were robust in multiple sensitivity analyses. We did not find substantial effect heterogeneity based on sex, age, and body mass index. CONCLUSIONS: Total sugary drinks, carbonated beverages, vegetable and fruit juices, and sweetened coffee may increase the risk of depression, whereas black coffee may decrease it.

BACKGROUND: This cohort study aimed to examine the relationship between objectively measured daily ambulatory activity (AA) variables and the onset of metabolic syndrome (MetS) in middle-aged and older Japanese individuals. METHODS: A total of 1,034 participants (women, 76.8%; mean age, 56.9 years) who were initially free from MetS, underwent objective assessment of daily AA using a uniaxial accelerometer at baseline. The number of steps, time accumulated in light-intensity AA (LIAA), moderate-to-vigorous intensity AA (MVAA), and total AA (LIAA + MVAA) were calculated. The diagnostic criteria outlined by the Japanese standards were employed to define the presence of MetS. To explore the association between AA variables and MetS onset, both multivariate logistic regression and a restricted cubic spline model were used while controlling for variables such as age, sex, education, alcohol habit, smoking habit, energy intake, and the number of MetS components present at baseline. RESULTS: Over the course of the 5-year follow-up period, 116 participants (11.2%) developed MetS. In terms of the number of steps, LIAA, and total AA, the third quartile had significantly lower multivariate adjusted odds ratios for MetS onset than the first quartile. The odds ratios (95% confidence intervals) were 0.386 (0.197-0.755), 0.527 (0.285-0.975), and 0.392 (0.206-0.745), respectively. In the spline model, an L-shaped association with MetS was observed for the number of steps (p for nonlinearity = 0.066), LIAA (p for nonlinearity = 0.034), and total AA (p for nonlinearity = 0.040). CONCLUSIONS: Among the variables related to AA, the index of daily amount AA, in particular, may be linked to the onset of MetS.

AIMS/INTRODUCTION: Gene-environment interactions are considered to critically influence type 2 diabetes mellitus development; however, the underlying mechanisms and specific interactions remain unclear. Given the increasing prevalence of low birthweight (LBW) influenced by the intrauterine environment, we sought to investigate genetic factors related to type 2 diabetes development in individuals with LBW. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The interaction between 20 reported type 2 diabetes susceptibility genes and the development of type 2 diabetes in LBW (<2,500 g) individuals in a population-based Japanese cohort (n = 1,021) was examined by logistic regression and stratified analyses. RESULTS: Logistic regression analyses showed that only the G/G genotype at the rs1862513 locus of the resistin gene (RETN), an established initiator of insulin resistance, was closely related to the prevalence of type 2 diabetes in individuals with LBW. Age, sex and current body mass index-adjusted stratified analyses showed a significant interaction effect of LBW and the RETN G/G genotype on fasting insulin, homeostatic model assessment 2-insulin resistance, Matsuda index and the prevalence of type 2 diabetes (all P-values for interaction <0.05). The adjusted odds ratio for type 2 diabetes in the LBW + G/G genotype group was 7.33 (95% confidence interval 2.43-22.11; P = 0.002) compared with the non-LBW + non-G/G genotype group. Similar results were obtained after excluding the influence of malnutrition due to World War II. CONCLUSIONS: Simultaneous assessment of LBW and the RETN G/G genotype can more accurately predict the risk of future type 2 diabetes than assessing each of these factors alone, and provide management strategies, including early lifestyle intervention in LBW population.

Objectives: The purpose of this study is to examine which sources of worry and stress are associated with smoking behavior and if these associations are varied by gender. Methods: The anonymous data of 28,588 men and 30,813 women aged 20-79 years old in Japan were analyzed. We defined the subjects who chose "smoking everyday" as "smokers." We also assessed 20 sources of worry and stress. Multivariable odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) of smoking for each source of worry and stress were calculated using logistic regression analysis. Results: We found significant association of financial stress with smoking behavior in both genders. The multivariable OR (95% CI) of smoking according to stress from financial stress was 1.22 (1.15-1.31) in men and 1.66 (1.53-1.80) in women. Moreover, the OR of smoking according to stress from human relationships and job affairs was significantly higher for women. Conclusion: We found that some sources of worry and stress were related to smoking behavior and these associations were found to be gender-specific.
