Summary: This study demonstrated a negative association between nut consumption and MetS risk, especially walnuts and pistachios could reduce the risk of MetS. Among adults, consuming nuts higher than the median and engaging in moderate to high physical activity levels significantly decreased the risk of MetS. Non-smokers were more likely to reduce their risk of MetS, and individuals with higher education levels also showed a tendency to lower their risk of MetS.

Summary: This study evaluated the association between marital status, household size, and lifestyle changes during the COVID-19 pandemic in Japan. It found that older singles living alone were more likely to experience unhealthy lifestyle changes, primarily due to decreased physical activity and increased alcohol consumption. However, there was no significant association between marital status, household size, and unhealthy changes among younger participants.

Summary: This study aims to explore the associations between socio-economic status, disease burdens, and PPCP levels in domestic wastewater at a national level. Results showed that different types of PPCPs were widely present in wastewater across China, with significant variations in consumption levels. Disease burden was found to be the main factor affecting PPCP consumption, and specific types of PPCPs were identified that were highly associated with socioeconomic status and disease burdens.

Summary: This study investigated the association between adherence to World Cancer Research Fund (WCRF) lifestyle advice and the risk of 13 types of cancer, as well as the potential interaction with genetic risk. The findings suggest that adhering to WCRF lifestyle recommendations has beneficial associations with most cancers, and the protective effect is more significant for individuals at higher genetic risk for certain cancers.

Summary: This study found that socioeconomic disadvantages in adolescents were associated with a higher risk of metabolic syndrome independent of lifestyle factors. There was a dose-response relationship between the number of accumulated socioeconomic disadvantages and the risk of MetS. Adolescents with low-educated mothers or who accumulated more than three disadvantages demonstrated a higher MetS risk score compared to non-disadvantaged groups.

Summary: The study found that the prevalence of frequent alcohol drinkers and MetS among Chinese adults living in Ningbo was 29.9% and 28.0% respectively. There was a positive association between frequent alcohol consumption and MetS and its medical components, highlighting the need for public health interventions to restrict alcohol consumption for the prevention and control of MetS within the population.
