Publication Open Access Health-related quality of life and mortality in the 'Seguimiento Universidad de Navarra' prospective cohort study(Elsevier, 2023) López-Herreros, J.; Martínez González, Miguel Ángel; Gea, A.; Sánchez Villegas, María Almudena; Dierssen Sotos, Trinidad; Jiménez-Moleón, J. J.; Ruiz Canela, Miguel; Toledo, Estefanía; Institute on Innovation and Sustainable Development in Food Chain - ISFOODObjective: To study the association between health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and all-cause mortality in a healthy middle-aged Mediterranean cohort. Methods: We included 15,390 participants –mean age 42.8 years at first HRQoL ascertainment, all university graduates–. HRQoL was assessed with the self-administered Medical Outcomes Study Short Form-36 (SF-36) twice, with a 4-year gap. We used multivariable-adjusted Cox regression models to address the relation between self-reported health and Physical or Mental Component Summary (PCS-36 or MCS-36) and mortality, and their interaction with prior comorbidities or adherence to the Mediterranean diet (MedDiet). Results: Over 8.7 years of median follow-up time, 266 deaths were identified. Hazard ratio (HR) for the excellent vs. poor/fair category in self-reported health was 0.30 (95 % confidence interval (CI), 0.16–0.57) in the model with repeated measurements of HRQoL. Both the PCS-36 (HRquartile4(Q4)vs.Q1 0.57 [95%CI, 0.36–0.90], ptrend < 0.001; HRper+10points: 0.64 [95%CI, 0.54–0.75]) and the MCS-36 (HRQ4vs.Q1 0.67 [95%CI, 0.46–0.97], ptrend = 0.025; HRper+10points: 0.86 [95%CI, 0.74–0.99]) were inversely associated with mortality in the model with repeated measurements of HRQoL. Previous comorbidities or adherence to the MedDiet did not modify these associations. Conclusions: Self-reported HRQoL –assessed as self-reported health, PCS-36 and MCS-36– obtained with the Spanish version of the SF-36 were inversely associated with mortality risk, regardless of the presence of previous comorbidities or adherence to the MedDiet.Publication Open Access Association between adherence to Swedish dietary guidelines and Mediterranean diet and risk of stroke in a Swedish population(MDPI, 2022) González Padilla, Esther; Tao, Zhen; Sánchez Villegas, María Almudena; Álvarez Pérez, Jacqueline; Borné, Yan; Sonestedt, Emily; Institute on Innovation and Sustainable Development in Food Chain - ISFOODDietary factors associated with stroke risk are still rather unknown. The aim was to examine the association between adherence to healthy dietary patterns and incidence of stroke among 25,840 individuals from the Swedish Malmö Diet and Cancer Study cohort. Dietary data were obtained using a combination of a 7-day food record, diet questionnaire, and interview. A Swedish Dietary Guidelines Score (SDGS), including five dietary components based on the current Swedish dietary guidelines, and a modified Mediterranean diet score (mMDS), composed of ten dietary components, were constructed. Over a mean follow-up period of 19.5 years, 2579 stroke cases, of which 80% were ischaemic, were identified through national registers. Weak, non-significant associations were found between the dietary indices and the risk of stroke. However, after excluding potential misreporters and individuals with unstable food habits (35% of the population), we observed significant inverse association (p-trend < 0.05) between SDGS and mMDS and total and ischaemic stroke (HR per point for total stroke: 0.96; 95% CI: 0.92–1.00 for SDGS and 0.95; 95% CI: 0.91–0.99 for mMDS). In conclusion, high quality diet in line with the current Swedish dietary recommendations or Mediterranean diet may reduce the risk of total and ischaemic stroke.Publication Open Access SESSAMO, follow-up of secondary students to assess mental health and obesity: a cohort study(Elsevier, 2024) Goñi Sarriés, Adriana; Pírez, Guillermo; Yárnoz-Goñi, Nora; Lahortiga Ramos, Francisca; Iruin, Álvaro; Díez-Suárez, Azucena; Zorrilla, Iñaki; Morata-Sampaio, Leticia; Oliver, M. Jesús; González Pinto, Ana; Sánchez Villegas, María Almudena; Ciencias de la Salud; Osasun Zientziak; Institute on Innovation and Sustainable Development in Food Chain - ISFOODDuring last decades, a departure from health-related lifestyles has been observed among adolescents. Evidence reports that healthy lifestyles could be predictors of better mental health status. The aims of the SESSAMO Project are: 1) to assess the association between lifestyles and physical and mental health; 2) to assess how self-concept and stressful life events can modulate these associations; and 3) to establish the role of social determinants in the lifestyle and in adolescents¿ health. The SESSAMO Project is a prospective cohort carried out in Spain. Students aged 14-16 years (2nd-4th ESO) and their parents are invited to participate. Baseline data are collected through on-line, validated, self-administered questionnaires through a digital platform. Information on lifestyles, stressful life events and self-concept are collected. Screening of depression, anxiety, eating disorders, suicide risk, psychotic experiences and COVID impact is assessed. Every three years, up to age of 25, participants will be contacted again to update relevant information.
