Higher amounts of intramuscular fat in the thigh could also increase the risk for knee osteoarthritis.

Mashup Score: 66Researchers in alcohol, tobacco, and processed food are being threatened, intimidated, and discredited - 20 day(s) ago
Researchers probing the effects of tobacco, alcohol, and ultraprocessed food are often the targets of intimidation and tactics designed to deter them from continuing their work or to discredit them, a study has found.1 The intimidation most often takes the form of companies in these sectors seeking to discredit researchers but has also included surveillance, threats of violence, burglary, bribery, and cyberattacks. A team of researchers from the University of Bath collaborated with others at the George Washington University Milken Institute School of Public Health, Washington, DC, and Inserm, France’s national institute of health and medical research. They compiled and reviewed public data and reports of intimidation tactics used by the tobacco, ultraprocessed food, and alcohol sectors between 2000 and 2022 and focused on 64 …

Mashup Score: 22Halving premature death and improving quality of life at all ages: cross-country analyses of past trends and future directions - 23 day(s) ago
Halving premature death by 2050 is feasible, although substantial investments in child and adult health are needed to sustain or accelerate the rate of improvement for high-performing and medium-performing countries. Particular attention must be paid to countries with very low or a worsening rate of improvement in PPD. By reducing premature mortality, more people will live longer and more healthy lives. However, as people live longer, the absolute number of years lived with chronic disease will increase and investments in services reducing chronic disease morbidity are needed.

Mashup Score: 28Mitigating disuse-induced skeletal muscle atrophy in ageing: Resistance exercise as a critical countermeasure - PubMed - 25 day(s) ago
The gradual deterioration of physiological systems with ageing makes it difficult to maintain skeletal muscle mass (sarcopenia), at least partly due to the presence of ‘anabolic resistance’, resulting in muscle loss. Sarcopenia can be transiently but markedly accelerated through periods of muscle di …

Mashup Score: 16
Background: Cognitive impairment (CI) is a common mental health disorder among older adults, and dietary patterns have an impact on cognitive function. However, no systematic researches have constructed anti-inflammatory diet (AID) and protein-enriched diet (PED) to explore their association with CI among older adults in China. Methods: The data used in this study were obtained from the 2018 waves of the China Longitudinal Health and Longevity Survey (CLHLS). We construct AID, PED, and calculate scores for CI. We use binary logistic regression to explore the relationship between them, and use restrictive cubic splines to determine whether the relationships are non-linear. Subgroup analysis and sensitivity analysis were used to demonstrate the robustness of the results. Results: A total of 8692 participants (mean age is 83.53 years) were included in the analysis. We found that participants with a higher AID (OR = 0.789, 95% confidence interval: 0.740–0.842, p < 0.001) and PED (OR = 0.91
