Title = {Associations between imprinted gene differentially
methylated regions, appetitive traits and body mass index in
children.},
Journal = {Pediatric Obesity},
Volume = {14},
Number = {2},

Abstract = {BACKGROUND:Knowledge regarding genetic influences on eating
behaviours is expanding; yet less is known regarding
contributions of epigenetic variation to appetitive traits
and body mass index (BMI) in children. OBJECTIVE:The purpose
of this study was to explore relationships between
methylation at differentially methylated regions (DMRs) of
imprinted genes (insulin-like growth factor 2/H19 and
Delta-like, Drosophila, homolog 1/maternally expressed gene
3) using DNA extracted from umbilical cord blood leucocytes,
two genetically influenced appetitive traits (food
responsiveness and satiety responsiveness) and BMI.
METHODS:Data were obtained from participants (N = 317;
mean age = 3.6 years; SD = 1.8 years) from the Newborn
Epigenetic STudy. Conditional process models were
implemented to investigate the associations between DMRs of
imprinted genes and BMI, and test whether this association
was mediated by appetitive traits and birthweight and
moderated by sex. RESULTS:Appetitive traits and birthweight
did not mediate the relationship between methylation at
DMRs. Increased insulin-like growth factor 2 DMR methylation
was associated with higher satiety responsiveness. Higher
satiety responsiveness was associated with lower BMI.
Associations between methylation at DMRs, appetitive traits
and BMI differed by sex. CONCLUSIONS:This is one of the
first studies to demonstrate associations between epigenetic
variation established prior to birth with appetitive traits
and BMI in children, providing support for the need to
uncover genetic and epigenetic mechanisms for appetitive
traits predisposing some individuals to obesity.},

Title = {The role of genetic and environmental influences on the
association between childhood ADHD symptoms and
BMI.},
Journal = {International Journal of Obesity (2005)},
Volume = {43},
Number = {1},

Abstract = {BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES:Although childhood attention deficit
hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) has been previously associated
with concurrent and later obesity in adulthood, the etiology
of this association remains unclear. The objective of this
study is to determine the shared genetic effects of ADHD
symptoms and BMI in a large sample of sibling pairs,
consider how these shared effects may vary over time, and
examine potential sex differences. SUBJECT/METHODS:Sibling
pair data were obtained from the National Longitudinal Study
of Adolescent to Adult Health (Add Health); childhood ADHD
symptoms were reported retrospectively during young
adulthood, while three prospective measurements of BMI were
available from young adulthood to later adulthood. Cholesky
decomposition models were fit to this data using Mx and
maximum-likelihood estimation. The twin and sibling sample
for these analyses included: 221 monozygotic (MZ) pairs (92
male-male, 139 female-female), 228 dizygotic (DZ) pairs (123
male-male, 105 female-female), 471 full-sibling (FS) pairs
(289 male-male, 182 female-female), 106 male-female DZ twin
pairs, and 234 male-female FS pairs. RESULTS:The magnitude
of the association between childhood ADHD symptoms and BMI
changed over time and by sex. The etiological relationship
between childhood ADHD symptoms and the three prospective
measurements of BMI differed for males and females, such
that unique or non-shared environmental influences
contributed to the relationship within males and genetic
factors contributed to the relationship within females.
Specifically, among females, genetic influences on childhood
ADHD symptoms were partially shared with those effecting BMI
and increased from adolescence to later adulthood (genetic
correlation = 0.20 (95% CI: 0.07-0.36) in adolescence
and 0.24 (95% CI: 0.10, 0.41) in adulthood).
CONCLUSION:Genetic influences on ADHD symptoms in childhood
are partially shared with those effecting obesity. However,
future research is needed to determine why this association
is limited to females.},

Title = {Associations Between Initial Subjective Experiences with
Tobacco and Self-Reported Recent Use in Young
Adulthood.},

Abstract = {Youth tobacco use behaviors are predictive of patterns in
adulthood and effect long-term health outcomes. Yet, few
studies have examined the effect of initial subjective
experiences (ISEs) during first tobacco use, which has been
found to be an indicator of individuals. sensitivity to
nicotine and vulnerability to dependence.The present study
aimed to determine the prevalence of ISEs across a variety
of tobacco products, evaluate the factor structure of ISEs
by first tobacco product used, and examine the relationship
between ISEs and recent (30-day) use of tobacco products
across time, using a university sample.Exploratory factor
analyses were conducted to identify latent factors present
with respect to items measuring ISEs with tobacco,
separately by tobacco product (e.g. cigarettes, cigars,
hookah, e-cigarettes). Factor scores for positive and
negative ISEs were calculated. Multiple logistic regression
analyses were conducted to examine associations between ISEs
and recent use of each tobacco product, adjusted for age at
first use, sex, race/ethnicity, and cohort.ISEs differ by
the first tobacco product used. Associations between factor
scores for positive and negative ISEs and recent use were
found across a variety of tobacco products. Overall,
positive ISEs were more strongly associated with recent use,
relative to negative ISEs.Further research is needed to
identify genetic and biological pathways and social contexts
influencing initial subjective experiences with tobacco use,
in efforts to delay the initiation for tobacco use and
reduce risk for continued use among young
adults.},

Abstract = {Maternal smoking during pregnancy (MSDP) and secondhand
smoke (SHS) exposure are associated with a myriad of
negative health effects for both mother and child. However,
less is known regarding social determinants for SHS
exposure, which may differ from those of maternal smoking
during pregnancy (MSDP). To identify social determinants for
SHS exposure only, MSDP only, and MSDP and SHS exposure,
data were obtained from all pregnant women (18-54 years;
N = 726) in waves 1 and 2 of the Population Assessment
of Tobacco and Health Study (2014-2015). Multiple logistic
regressions were conducted using SAS 9.4. Smoke exposure
during pregnancy was common; 23.0% reported SHS exposure
only, 6.1% reported MSDP only, and 11.8% reported both SHS
exposure and MSDP. Results demonstrate that relationships
between smoke exposure during pregnancy and social
determinants vary by type of exposure. Women at risk for any
smoke exposure during pregnancy include those who are
unmarried and allow the use of combustible tobacco products
within the home. Those who are at higher risk for SHS
exposure include those who are younger in age, and those who
are earlier in their pregnancy. Those who are at higher risk
for maternal smoking include those with fair/poor mental
health status and those who believe that others' view
tobacco use more positively. These results suggest the need
for implementing more comprehensive policies that promote
smoke-free environments. Implementing these strategies have
the potential to improve maternal and fetal health outcomes
associated with tobacco smoke exposure.},

Title = {What Do Smokers Want in A Smartphone-Based Cessation
Application?},
Journal = {Nicotine & Tobacco Research : Official Journal of the

url = {http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/ntr/ntx171},
Abstract = {Background:Fueled by rapid technological advances over the
past decade, there is growing interest in the use of
smartphones to aid in smoking cessation. Hundreds of
applications have been developed for this purpose, but
little is known about how these applications are accessed
and used by smokers or what features smokers believe would
be most useful. Purpose:The present study sought to
understand the prevalence of smartphone ownership and
patterns of use among smokers as well as the perceived
utility of various smartphone application features for
smoking cessation that are currently in development or
already available. Methods:Daily cigarette smokers (n = 224)
reported on smartphone ownership, their patterns of
smartphone usage, and perceived utility of features.
Features were ranked according to perceived utility and
differences in both perceived utility and general smartphone
use patterns were examined as a function of demographic and
smoking-related variables. Results:Most smokers (80.4%) own
a smartphone, but experience with smoking cessation
applications is extremely rare (6.1%). Ownership and
patterns of usage differed as a function of demographic and
smoking-related variables. Overall, gain-framed features
were rated as most useful, while loss-framed and
interpersonal features were rated as least useful.
Conclusions:Mobile health interventions have the potential
to reach a large number of smokers but are currently
underutilized. Additional effort is needed to ensure parity
in treatment access. Gain-framed messages may be especially
useful for engaging smokers, even if other features
ultimately drive treatment effects. Implications:This study
describes patterns of smartphone usage among smokers and
identifies the smartphone application features smokers
believe would be most useful during a quit attempt. Findings
indicate which subgroups of smokers are most likely to be
reached with mobile health interventions and suggests that
inclusion of specific features may be helpful for engaging
smokers in the smoking cessation process.},

Abstract = {Epigenetic modifications, including DNA methylation, act as
one potential mechanism underlying the detrimental effects
associated with prenatal tobacco smoke (PTS) exposure.
Methylation in a gene called AXL was previously reported to
differ in response to PTS.We investigated the association
between PTS and epigenetic changes in AXL and how this was
related to childhood asthma phenotypes. We tested the
association between PTS and DNA methylation at multiple CpG
loci of AXL at birth using Pyrosequencing in two separate
study populations, the Children's Health Study (CHS, n =
799) and the Newborn Epigenetic Study (NEST, n = 592).
Plasma cotinine concentration was used to validate findings
with self-reported smoking status. The inter-relationships
among AXL mRNA and miR-199a1 expression, PTS, and AXL
methylation were examined. Lastly, we evaluated the joint
effects of AXL methylation and PTS on the risk of asthma and
related symptoms at age 10 years old.PTS was associated with
higher methylation level in the AXL gene body in both CHS
and NEST subjects. In the pooled analysis, exposed subjects
had a 0.51% higher methylation level in this region compared
to unexposed subjects (95% CI 0.29, 0.74; p < 0.0001).
PTS was also associated with 21.2% lower expression of
miR-199a1 (95% CI - 37.9, - 0.1; p = 0.05), a
microRNA known to regulate AXL expression. Furthermore, the
combination of higher AXL methylation and PTS exposure at
birth increased the risk of recent episodes of bronchitic
symptoms in childhood.PTS was associated with methylation
level of AXL and the combination altered the risk of
childhood bronchitic symptoms.},

Month = {April},
url = {http://dx.doi.org/10.1111/obr.12643},
Abstract = {This review examined evidence of the association between
maternal pre-pregnancy overweight/obesity status and child
neurodevelopmental outcomes. PubMed and PsycINFO databases
were systematically searched for empirical studies published
before April 2017 using keywords related to prenatal obesity
and children's neurodevelopment. Of 1483 identified papers,
41 were included in the systematic review, and 32 articles
representing 36 cohorts were included in the meta-analysis.
Findings indicated that compared with children of normal
weight mothers, children whose mothers were overweight or
obese prior to pregnancy were at increased risk for
compromised neurodevelopmental outcomes (overweight:
OR = 1.17, 95% CI [1.11, 1.24], I2 = 65.51; obese:
OR = 1.51; 95% CI [1.35, 1.69], I2 = 79.63).
Pre-pregnancy obesity increased the risk of attention
deficit-hyperactivity disorder (OR = 1.62; 95% CI [1.23,
2.14], I2 = 70.15), autism spectrum disorder
(OR = 1.36; 95% CI [1.08, 1.70], I2 = 60.52),
developmental delay (OR = 1.58; 95% CI [1.39, 1.79], I2
= 75.77) and emotional/behavioural problems (OR = 1.42;
95% CI [1.26, 1.59], I2 = 87.74). Given the current
obesity prevalence among young adults and women of
childbearing age, this association between maternal obesity
during pregnancy and atypical child neurodevelopment
represents a potentially high public health
burden.},

Title = {Associations between maternal cytokine levels during
gestation and measures of child cognitive abilities and

Journal = {Brain, Behavior, and Immunity},
Year = {2018},
Month = {March},
url = {http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.bbi.2018.03.029},
Abstract = {Preclinical studies demonstrate that environmentally-induced
alterations in inflammatory cytokines generated by the
maternal and fetal immune system can significantly impact
fetal brain development. Yet, the relationship between
maternal cytokines during gestation and later cognitive
ability and executive function remains understudied.
Children (n = 246) were born of mothers enrolled in the
Newborn Epigenetic Study - a prospective pre-birth cohort in
the Southeastern US. We characterized seven cytokines
[IL-1β, IL-4,IL-6, IL-12p70, IL-17A, tumor necrosis
factor-α (TNFα), and interferon-γ (IFNγ)] and one
chemokine (IL-8) from maternal plasma collected during
pregnancy. We assessed children's cognitive abilities and
executive functioning at a mean age of 4.5 (SD = 1.1)
years. Children's DAS-II and NIH toolbox scores were
regressed on cytokines and the chemokine, controlling for
maternal age, race, education, body mass index, IQ, parity,
smoking status, delivery type, gestational weeks, and child
birth weight and sex. Higher IL-12p70 (βIL-12p70 = 4.26,
p = 0.023) and IL-17A (βIL-17A = 3.70, p = 0.042)
levels were related to higher DAS-II GCA score, whereas
higher IL-1β (βIL-1B = -6.07, p = 0.003) was related
to lower GCA score. Higher IL-12p70 was related to higher
performance on NIH toolbox measures of executive functions
related to inhibitory control and attention (βIL-12p70 =
5.20, p = 0.046) and cognitive flexibility (βIL-12p70 =
5.10, p = 0.047). Results suggest that dysregulation in
gestational immune activity are associated with child
cognitive ability and executive functioning.},

Year = {2018},
Month = {March},
url = {http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/jpepsy/jsx098},
Abstract = {The aim of this study is to understand how early cigarette
use might predict subsequent illicit drug use, especially
among individuals with attention-deficit hyperactivity
disorder (ADHD) symptoms during childhood.Data were drawn
from the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health
(Waves I-IV). The analysis sample involves participants who
had not used illicit drugs at Wave I, with no missing
responses for studied predictors (N = 7,332).Smoking
status at Wave I (ever regular vs. never regular) and
childhood ADHD symptoms predicted subsequent illicit drug
use at Waves II to IV. No interaction effect of smoking
status at Wave I and childhood ADHD symptoms was found.
However, an indirect effect from childhood ADHD symptoms on
illicit drug use was identified, through smoking status at
Wave I. Similar results were observed for predicting illicit
drug dependence.The findings support the notion that smoking
status during early adolescence may mediate the association
between childhood ADHD symptoms and risk of later adult drug
use. Interventions to prevent smoking among adolescents may
be particularly effective at decreasing subsequent drug use,
especially among children with ADHD symptoms.},

Title = {Characterizing anger-related affect in individuals with

Year = {2018},
Month = {March},
url = {http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.psychres.2017.12.080},
Abstract = {This study employed secondary analyses of existing
ecological momentary assessment (EMA) data to characterize
hostile and irritable affect in the day-to-day experience of
52 smokers with, and 65 smokers without, posttraumatic
stress disorder (PTSD). EMA monitoring occurred over a mean
of 8.2 days, and participants responded to an average of 2.8
random prompts/day. Analyses included Wilcoxon rank sum
tests of group differences, and path analyses of
cross-lagged multilevel models. Participants with PTSD
endorsed a significantly higher proportion of total EMA
entries indicating hostile affect and irritable affect than
did individuals without PTSD. Cross-lagged analyses
indicated that over a period of hours, PTSD symptoms
significantly predicted subsequent hostile and irritable
affect, but hostile and irritable affect did not predict
subsequent PTSD symptoms. Findings suggest that day-to-day
exposure to PTSD-related trauma cues may contribute to
chronically elevated levels of anger-related affect. Such
heightened affective arousal may, in turn, underlie an
increased risk for verbal or physical aggression, as well as
other health and quality-of-life related impairments
associated with PTSD. Clinical implications include
conceptualizing anger treatment in the broader context of
trauma history and symptoms, and specifically targeting
physiological arousal and maladaptive hostile cognitions
triggered by trauma reminders in patients with
PTSD.},

Title = {Developing a Serious Videogame for Preteens to Motivate HPV
Vaccination Decision Making: Land of Secret
Gardens.},

Abstract = {INTRODUCTION:Vaccination against human papillomavirus (HPV)
is routinely recommended for ages 11-12, yet in 2016 only
49.5% of women and 37.5% of men had completed the three-dose
series in the United States. Offering information and cues
to action through a serious videogame for preteens may
foster HPV vaccination awareness, information seeking, and
communication. MATERIALS AND METHODS:An iterative process
was used to develop an interactive videogame, Land of Secret
Gardens. Three focus groups were conducted with 16 boys and
girls, ages 11-12, for input on game design, acceptability,
and functioning. Two parallel focus groups explored parents'
(n = 9) perspectives on the game concept. Three
researchers identified key themes. RESULTS:Preteens wanted a
game that is both entertaining and instructional. Some
parents were skeptical that games could be motivational. A
back-story about a secret garden was developed as a metaphor
for a preteen's body and keeping it healthy. The goal is to
plant a lush secret garden and protect the seedlings by
treating them with a potion when they sprout to keep them
healthy as they mature. Points to buy seeds and create the
potion are earned by playing mini-games. Throughout play,
players are exposed to messaging about HPV and the benefits
of the vaccine. Both boys and girls liked the garden concept
and getting facts about HPV. Parents were encouraged to

Title = {Impact of Smoking Ban on Passive Smoke Exposure in Pregnant

Abstract = {Prenatal passive smoke exposure raises risk for negative
birth outcomes. Legislation regulating public smoking has
been shown to impact exposure levels, though fewer studies
involving pregnant women have been conducted within the U.S.
where bans are inconsistent across regions. This study
examined the effect of a ban enacted in the southeastern
U.S. on pregnant women's cotinine levels. Additional
analyses compared self-reported exposure to cotinine and
identified characteristics associated with passive exposure.
Pregnant women (N = 851) were recruited prospectively
between 2005 and 2011 in North Carolina. Sociodemographic
and health data were collected via surveys; maternal blood
samples were assayed for cotinine. Among non-active smokers
who provided self-report data regarding passive exposure (N
= 503), 20% were inconsistent with corresponding cotinine.
Among all non-smokers (N = 668), being unmarried, African
American, and less educated were each associated with
greater passive exposure. Controlling for covariates, mean
cotinine was higher prior to the ban compared to after, F(1,
640) = 24.65, p < 0.001. Results suggest that banning
smoking in public spaces may reduce passive smoke exposure
for non-smoking pregnant women. These data are some of the
first to examine the impact of legislation on passive smoke
exposure in pregnant women within the U.S. using a biomarker
and can inform policy in regions lacking comprehensive
smoke-free legislation.},

Abstract = {Background: Maternal diet during pregnancy has been shown to
influence the child neuro-developmental outcomes. Studies
examining effects of dietary patterns on offspring behavior
are sparse. Objective: Determine if maternal adherence to a
Mediterranean diet is associated with child behavioral
outcomes assessed early in life, and to evaluate the role of
differentially methylated regions (DMRs) regulating
genomically imprinted genes in these associations. Methods:
Among 325 mother/infant pairs, we used regression models to
evaluate the association between tertiles of maternal
periconceptional Mediterranean diet adherence (MDA) scores
derived from a Food Frequency Questionnaire, and social and
emotional scores derived from the Infant Toddler Social and
Emotional Assessment (ITSEA) questionnaire in the second
year of life. Methylation of nine genomically imprinted
genes was measured to determine if MDA was associated with
CpG methylation. Results: Child depression was inversely
associated with maternal MDA (Bonferroni-corrected p =
0.041). While controlling for false-discovery, compared to
offspring of women with the lowest MDA tertile, those with
MDA scores in middle and high MDA tertiles had decreased
odds for atypical behaviors [OR (95% CI) = 0.40 (0.20, 0.78)
for middle and 0.40 (0.17, 0.92) for highest tertile], for
maladaptive behaviors [0.37 (0.18, 0.72) for middle tertile
and 0.42 (0.18, 0.95) for highest tertile] and for an index
of autism spectrum disorder behaviors [0.46 (0.23, 0.90) for
middle and 0.35 (0.15, 0.80) for highest tertile]. Offspring
of women with the highest MDA tertile were less likely to
exhibit depressive [OR = 0.28 (0.12, 0.64)] and anxiety
[0.42 (0.18, 0.97)] behaviors and increased odds of social
relatedness [2.31 (1.04, 5.19)] behaviors when compared to
low MDA mothers. Some associations varied by sex. Perinatal
MDA score was associated with methylation differences for
imprinted control regions of PEG10/SGCE [females: Beta (95%
CI) = 1.66 (0.52, 2.80) - Bonferroni-corrected p = 0.048;
males: -0.56 (-1.13, -0.00)], as well as both MEG3 and IGF2
in males [0.97 (0.00, 1.94)] and -0.92 (-1.65, -0.19)
respectively. Conclusion: In this ethnically diverse cohort,
maternal adherence to a Mediterranean diet in early
pregnancy was associated with favorable neurobehavioral
outcomes in early childhood and with sex-dependent
methylation differences of MEG3, IGF2, and SGCE/PEG10
DMRs.},

vitamin D, but the impact on infant development is unclear.
Moreover, no pregnancy-specific vitamin D recommendations
have been widely accepted.Given the ubiquitous expression of
vitamin D receptors in the brain, we investigated the
association between early prenatal plasma 25-hydroxyvitamin
D (25(OH)D) concentrations and children's social and
emotional development in the Newborn Epigenetic Study, a
prospective study of pregnancies from 2009 to 2011 in
Durham, North Carolina.We measured 25(OH)D concentrations in
first or second trimester plasma samples and categorized
25(OH)D concentrations into quartiles. Covariates were
derived from maternal questionnaires. Mothers completed the
Infant Toddler Social-Emotional Development Assessment when
children were 12-24 months of age. We used multivariable
linear regression to evaluate associations between 25(OH)D
and specific behavior scores, adjusted for season of blood
draw, maternal age, education, parity, smoking, marital
status, prepregnancy BMI, and infant gender. We investigated
effect-measure modification by race/ethnicity.Of the 218
mother-infant pairs with complete data, Black mothers had
much lower 25(OH)D concentrations as compared to White and
Hispanic mothers. After adjustment, lower prenatal 25(OH)D
was associated with slightly higher (less favorable)
Internalizing scores among White children, but lower (more
favorable) Internalizing scores among Black and Hispanic
children. Lower prenatal 25(OH)D also appears to be
associated with higher (less favorable) dysregulation
scores, though only among White and Hispanic children.Though
imprecise, preliminary results warrant further investigation
regarding a role for prenatal vitamin D on children's early
social and emotional development.},

Abstract = {Excessive inflammation during pregnancy alters homeostatic
mechanisms of the developing fetus and has been linked to
adverse pregnancy outcomes. An anti-inflammatory diet could
be a promising avenue to combat the pro-inflammatory state
of pregnancy, particularly in obese women, but we lack
mechanistic data linking this dietary pattern during
pregnancy to inflammation and birth outcomes. In an
ethnically diverse cohort of 1057 mother-child pairs, we
estimated the relationships between dietary inflammatory
potential [measured via the energy-adjusted dietary
inflammatory index (E-DII™)] and birth outcomes overall,
as well as by offspring sex and maternal pre-pregnancy body
mass index (BMI). In a subset of women, we also explored
associations between E-DII, circulating cytokines (n = 105),
and offspring methylation (n = 338) as potential modulators
of these relationships using linear regression. Adjusted
regression models revealed that women with pro-inflammatory
diets had elevated rates of preterm birth among female
offspring [β = -0.22, standard error (SE) = 0.07, P<0.01],
but not male offspring (β=0.09, SE = 0.06, P<0.12)
(Pinteraction = 0.003). Similarly, we observed
pro-inflammatory diets were associated with higher rates of
caesarean delivery among obese women (β = 0.17, SE = 0.08,
P = 0.03), but not among women with BMI <25 kg/m2
(Pinteraction = 0.02). We observed consistent inverse
associations between maternal inflammatory cytokine
concentrations (IL-12, IL-17, IL-4, IL-6, and TNFα) and
lower methylation at the MEG3 regulatory sequence (P<0.05);
however, results did not support the link between maternal
E-DII and circulating cytokines. We replicate work by others
on the association between maternal inflammatory diet and
adverse pregnancy outcomes and provide the first empirical
evidence supporting the inverse association between
circulating cytokine concentrations and offspring
methylation.},

Understanding prenatal factors that contribute to variation

were evaluated in relation to weight growth trajectories
during the first 24 months of life using the SuperImposition
by Translation and Rotation (SITAR) method, which provides
estimates of infant size, timing to peak velocity, and
growth velocity. The study sample included 704 mother-infant
dyads from a multiethnic prebirth cohort from the
Southeastern United States. The total number of weight
measures was 8670 (median number per child = 14).Several
prenatal and maternal characteristics were linked with
infant growth parameters. The primary findings show that
compared to women with a prepregnancy BMI between 18 and
24.9, women with a prepregnancy BMI ≥40 had infants that
were 8% larger during the first 24 months, a delayed tempo
of around 9 days, and a slower velocity. Mothers who had
greater than adequate gestational weight gain had infants
that were 5% larger even after controlling for prepregnancy
BMI and several other covariates.The findings contribute new
data on the associations between gestational weight gain and
aspects of early growth using the SITAR method, and support
a growing consensus in the literature that both prepregnancy
BMI and gestational weight gain relate independently to risk
for greater postnatal weight growth.},

Abstract = {Epigenetic modifications, including DNA methylation,
represent a potential mechanism for environmental impacts on
human disease. Maternal smoking in pregnancy remains an
important public health problem that impacts child health in
a myriad of ways and has potential lifelong consequences.
The mechanisms are largely unknown, but epigenetics most
likely plays a role. We formed the Pregnancy And Childhood
Epigenetics (PACE) consortium and meta-analyzed, across 13
cohorts (n = 6,685), the association between maternal
smoking in pregnancy and newborn blood DNA methylation at
over 450,000 CpG sites (CpGs) by using the Illumina 450K
BeadChip. Over 6,000 CpGs were differentially methylated in
relation to maternal smoking at genome-wide statistical
significance (false discovery rate, 5%), including 2,965
CpGs corresponding to 2,017 genes not previously related to
smoking and methylation in either newborns or adults.
Several genes are relevant to diseases that can be caused by
maternal smoking (e.g., orofacial clefts and asthma) or
adult smoking (e.g., certain cancers). A number of
differentially methylated CpGs were associated with gene
expression. We observed enrichment in pathways and processes
critical to development. In older children (5 cohorts, n =
3,187), 100% of CpGs gave at least nominal levels of
significance, far more than expected by chance (p value <
2.2 × 10(-16)). Results were robust to different
normalization methods used across studies and cell type
adjustment. In this large scale meta-analysis of methylation
data, we identified numerous loci involved in response to
maternal smoking in pregnancy with persistence into later
childhood and provide insights into mechanisms underlying
effects of this important exposure.},

Confirmatory factor analysis and factor mixture modeling are
used to classify parenting style typologies based on
measures of parental acceptance and control. Heavy Episodic
Drinking (HED) trajectories are evaluated using a
zero-inflated Poisson multigroup latent growth curve
modeling approach.The mixture model identified 4
heterogeneous groups that differed based on the 2 latent
variables (parental acceptance and control): balanced (65.8%
of the sample), authoritarian (12.2%), permissive (19.4%),
and uninvolved or neglectful (2.7%). Regardless of race, we
found that at age 12 years, children of authoritarian
parents have a higher probability of not engaging in HED
than children of parents with balanced, permissive, or
neglectful parenting styles. However, among Black youth who
reported HED at age 12, authoritarian parenting was
associated with greater level of HED at age 12 but a less
steep increase in level of HED as age increased yearly as
compared with balanced parenting. For White adolescents,
uninvolved, permissive, and authoritarian parenting were not
associated with a greater level of HED as age increased
yearly as compared with adolescents exposed to balanced
parenting.The influence of parenting styles on HED during
adolescence persists into young adulthood and differs by
race for youth engaging in HED.},

Abstract = {Several epidemiologic studies have demonstrated associations
between periconceptional environmental exposures and health
status of the offspring in later life. Although these
environmentally related effects have been attributed to
epigenetic changes, such as DNA methylation shifts at
imprinted genes, little is known about the potential effects
of maternal and paternal preconceptional overnutrition or
obesity.We examined parental preconceptional obesity in
relation to DNA methylation profiles at multiple human
imprinted genes important in normal growth and development,
such as: maternally expressed gene 3 (MEG3),
mesoderm-specific transcript (MEST), paternally expressed
gene 3 (PEG3), pleiomorphic adenoma gene-like 1 (PLAGL1),
epsilon sarcoglycan and paternally expressed gene 10
(SGCE/PEG10) and neuronatin (NNAT).We measured methylation
percentages at the differentially methylated regions (DMRs)
by bisulfite pyrosequencing in DNA extracted from umbilical
cord blood leukocytes of 92 newborns. Preconceptional
obesity, defined as BMI ⩾30 kg m(-2), was ascertained
through standardized questionnaires.After adjusting for
potential confounders and cluster effects, paternal obesity
was significantly associated with lower methylation levels
at the MEST (β=-2.57; s.e.=0.95; P=0.008), PEG3 (β=-1.71;
s.e.=0.61; P=0.005) and NNAT (β=-3.59; s.e.=1.76; P=0.04)
DMRs. Changes related to maternal obesity detected at other
loci were as follows: β-coefficient was +2.58 (s.e.=1.00;
P=0.01) at the PLAGL1 DMR and -3.42 (s.e.=1.69; P=0.04) at
the MEG3 DMR.We found altered methylation outcomes at
multiple imprint regulatory regions in children born to
obese parents, compared with children born to non-obese
parents. In spite of the small sample size, our data suggest
a preconceptional influence of parental life-style or
overnutrition on the (re)programming of imprint marks during
gametogenesis and early development. More specifically, the
significant and independent association between paternal
obesity and the offspring's methylation status suggests the
susceptibility of the developing sperm for environmental
insults. The acquired imprint instability may be carried
onto the next generation and increase the risk for chronic
diseases in adulthood.},

Abstract = {Background:Several epidemiologic studies have demonstrated
associations between periconceptional environmental
exposures and health status of the offspring in later life.
Although these environmentally related effects have been
attributed to epigenetic changes, such as DNA methylation
shifts at imprinted genes, little is known about the
potential effects of maternal and paternal preconceptional
overnutrition or obesity.Objective:We examined parental
preconceptional obesity in relation to DNA methylation
profiles at multiple human imprinted genes important in
normal growth and development, such as: maternally expressed
gene 3 (MEG3), mesoderm-specific transcript (MEST),
paternally expressed gene 3 (PEG3), pleiomorphic adenoma
gene-like 1 (PLAGL1), epsilon sarcoglycan and paternally
expressed gene 10 (SGCE/PEG10) and neuronatin
(NNAT).Methods:We measured methylation percentages at the
differentially methylated regions (DMRs) by bisulfite
pyrosequencing in DNA extracted from umbilical cord blood
leukocytes of 92 newborns. Preconceptional obesity, defined
as BMI ≥30 kg m -2, was ascertained through standardized
questionnaires.Results:After adjusting for potential
confounders and cluster effects, paternal obesity was
significantly associated with lower methylation levels at
the MEST (β=-2.57; s.e.=0.95; P=0.008), PEG3 (β=-1.71;
s.e.=0.61; P=0.005) and NNAT (β=-3.59; s.e.=1.76; P=0.04)
DMRs. Changes related to maternal obesity detected at other
loci were as follows: β-coefficient was +2.58 (s.e.=1.00;
P=0.01) at the PLAGL1 DMR and -3.42 (s.e.=1.69; P=0.04) at
the MEG3 DMR.Conclusion:We found altered methylation
outcomes at multiple imprint regulatory regions in children
born to obese parents, compared with children born to
non-obese parents. In spite of the small sample size, our
data suggest a preconceptional influence of parental
life-style or overnutrition on the (re)programming of
imprint marks during gametogenesis and early development.
More specifically, the significant and independent
association between paternal obesity and the offspring's
methylation status suggests the susceptibility of the
developing sperm for environmental insults. The acquired
imprint instability may be carried onto the next generation
and increase the risk for chronic diseases in
adulthood.},

Abstract = {Although depressive symptoms are common postpartum, few
studies have followed women beyond 12 months postpartum to
investigate changes in the number and severity of these
symptoms over time, especially in overweight and obese
women. Using two complementary analytical methods, this
study aims to identify trajectories of depressive symptoms
over 2 years postpartum among overweight or obese mothers,
and assess the demographic, socioeconomic, and health
covariates for these trajectories.Using longitudinal data
from two behavioral intervention studies (Kids and Adults
Now!-Defeat Obesity [KAN-DO] and Active Mothers Postpartum
(AMP); n = 844), we used latent growth modeling to identify
the overall trajectory of depressive symptoms and how it was
related to key covariates. Next, we used latent class growth
analysis to assess the heterogeneity in the depressive
symptom trajectories over time, and thereby, identify
subgroups of women with distinct trajectories.The overall
trajectory of depressive symptoms over 2 years postpartum
was relatively stable in our sample. However, the presence
of three distinct latent class trajectories (stable-low
[82.5%], decreasing symptoms [7.3%], and increasing symptoms
[10.2%]), identified based on trajectory shape and mean
depressive symptom score, supported heterogeneity in
depressive symptom trajectories over time. Lower maternal
education was related to a higher symptom score, and poorer
subjective health status at baseline predicted inclusion in
the increasing symptoms trajectory.In some overweight or
obese mothers, postpartum depressive symptoms do not resolve
quickly. Practitioners should be aware of this phenomenon
and continue to screen for depression for longer periods of
time postpartum.},

Abstract = {Epigenetic mechanisms are proposed to link maternal
concentrations of methyl group donor nutrients with the risk
of low birth weight. However, empirical data are lacking. We
have examined the association between maternal folate and
birth weight and assessed the mediating role of DNA
methylation at nine differentially methylated regions (DMRs)
of genomically imprinted genes in these associations.
Compared with newborns of women with folate levels in the
lowest quartile, birth weight was higher in newborns of
mothers in the second (β = 143.2, se = 63.2, P = 0.02),
third (β = 117.3, se = 64.0, P = 0.07), and fourth (β =
133.9, se = 65.2, P = 0.04) quartiles, consistent with a
threshold effect. This pattern of association did not vary
by race/ethnicity but was more apparent in newborns of
non-obese women. DNA methylation at the PLAGL1, SGCE,
DLK1/MEG3 and IGF2/H19 DMRs was associated with maternal
folate levels and also birth weight, suggestive of threshold
effects. MEG3 DMR methylation mediated the association
between maternal folate levels and birth weight (P =0.06).
While the small sample size and partial scope of examined
DMRs limit our conclusions, our data suggest that, with
respect to birth weight, no additional benefits may be
derived from increased maternal folate concentrations,
especially in non-obese women. These data also support
epigenetic plasticity as a key mechanistic response to
folate availability during early fetal development.},

Abstract = {In infants exposed to maternal stress in utero, phenotypic
plasticity through epigenetic events may mechanistically
explain increased risk of preterm birth (PTB), which confers
increased risk for neurodevelopmental disorders,
cardiovascular disease, and cancers in adulthood. We
examined associations between prenatal maternal stress and
PTB, evaluating the role of DNA methylation at imprint
regulatory regions. We enrolled women from prenatal clinics
in Durham, NC. Stress was measured in 537 women at 12 weeks
of gestation using the Perceived Stress Scale. DNA
methylation at differentially methylated regions (DMRs)
associated with H19, IGF2, MEG3, MEST, SGCE/PEG10, PEG3,
NNAT, and PLAGL1 was measured from peripheral and cord blood
using bisulfite pyrosequencing in a sub-sample of 79
mother-infant pairs. We examined associations between PTB
and stress and evaluated differences in DNA methylation at
each DMR by stress. Maternal stress was not associated with
PTB (OR = 0.98; 95% CI, 0.40-2.40; P = 0.96), after
adjustment for maternal body mass index (BMI), income, and
raised blood pressure. However, elevated stress was
associated with higher infant DNA methylation at the MEST
DMR (2.8% difference, P < 0.01) after adjusting for PTB.
Maternal stress may be associated with epigenetic changes at
MEST, a gene relevant to maternal care and obesity. Reduced
prenatal stress may support the epigenomic profile of a

unrelated youths from the National Longitudinal Study of
Adolescent Health provided responses to four surveys from
Waves I to IV, and a genetic sample in Wave III. Growth
mixture modeling was used to identify smoking patterns and
to assess the effects of the two SNPs and ADHD symptoms on
cigarette use over time. RESULTS: There were significant
main effects of ADHD symptoms and CHRNA6 variants in
predicting the number of cigarettes smoked and the pattern
of use over time, respectively. There were no main effects
of the CHRNB3 variants. However, a significant CHRNB3
variant×ADHD symptom interaction was observed, such that
individuals with elevated ADHD symptoms and a particular
CHRNB3 variant were at increased risk of cigarette use over

a nicotinic receptor gene may interact with ADHD symptoms to
link with increased cigarette use across adolescence and
young adulthood. Unique associations between specific

substance use in early adulthood.Conditions of economic
strains, especially poverty, during childhood were
associated with an increased likelihood of regular smoking
in adulthood, which was partially mediated by poorer
self-control during adolescence.Self-control is negatively
affected by economic strains and serves as a mediator
between poverty and risk of regular smoking. Additional
research is needed to better understand how economic strains
effect the development of self-control.},

of the home physical activity (PA) and food environment on
corresponding outcomes in young children, and assess
maternal education/work status as a moderator.Overweight or

Linear regression models assessed the net effect
(controlling for child demographics, study arm, supplemental

index and accelerometer wear time (for PA outcomes)) of the
home environment on the outcomes and moderation by maternal
education/work status. Data were collected in North Carolina
from 2007 to 2011.Parental policies supporting PA increased
MVPA time, and limiting access to unhealthy foods increased
the healthy food intake score. Role modeling of healthy
eating behaviors increased the healthy food intake score
among children of mothers with no college education. Among
children of mothers with no college education and not
working, limiting access to unhealthy foods and role
modeling reduced 'junk' food intake scores whereas parental
policies supporting family meals increased 'junk' food

Abstract = {BACKGROUND: Characterizing smoking behavior is important for
informing etiologic models and targeting prevention efforts.
This study explored the effects of both individual- and
community-level variables in predicting cigarette use vs.
non-use and level of use among adolescents as they
transition into adulthood. METHODS: Data on 14,779 youths
(53% female) were drawn from the National Longitudinal Study
of Adolescent Health (Add Health); a nationally
representative longitudinal cohort. A cohort sequential
design allowed for examining trajectories of smoking
typologies from age 13 to 32 years. Smoking trajectories
were evaluated by using a zero-inflated Poisson (ZIP) latent
growth analysis and latent class growth analysis modeling
approach. RESULTS: Significant relationships emerged between
both individual- and community-level variables and smoking
outcomes. Maternal and peer smoking predicted increases in
smoking over development and were associated with a greater
likelihood of belonging to any of the four identified
smoking groups versus Non-Users. Conduct problems and
depressive symptoms during adolescence were related to
cigarette use versus non-use. State-level prevalence of
adolescent smoking was related to greater cigarette use
during adolescence. CONCLUSIONS: Individual- and
community-level variables that distinguish smoking patterns
within the population aid in understanding cigarette use
versus non-use and the quantity of cigarette use into
adulthood. Our findings suggest that efforts to prevent
cigarette use would benefit from attention to both parental
and peer smoking and individual well-being. Future work is
needed to better understand the role of variables in the
context of multiple levels (individual and community-level)

patients were recruited from 2 pediatric hematology and

healthy individuals in the community. Changes in diet,
physical activity, and body composition were collected at
baseline, 6, and 12 months.All children (n=15) were, on
average, 10.3 years of age at enrollment, and were fairly
evenly distributed with regard to sex. Analyses revealed a
significant difference between cases and controls with
respect to the change in body mass index from baseline to 12

significantly greater increase in moderate-vigorous physical
activity than the cases [229.8 metabolic equivalent of tasks

inactive over the course of treatment.Our data corroborate
previous findings that following treatment for ALL and

Abstract = {Low birth weight (LBW) has been associated with common
adult-onset chronic diseases, including obesity,
cardiovascular disease, type II diabetes and some cancers.
The etiology of LBW is multi-factorial. However, recent
evidence suggests exposure to antibiotics may also increase
the risk of LBW. The mechanisms underlying this association
are unknown, although epigenetic mechanisms are
hypothesized. In this study, we evaluated the association
between maternal antibiotic use and LBW and examined the
potential role of altered DNA methylation that controls
growth regulatory imprinted genes in these
associations.Between 2009-2011, 397 pregnant women were
enrolled and followed until delivery. Prenatal antibiotic
use was ascertained through maternal self-report. Imprinted
genes methylation levels were measured at differentially
methylated regions (DMRs) using bisulfite pyrosequencing.
Generalized linear models were used to examine associations
among antibiotic use, birth weight and DMR methylation
fractions.After adjusting for infant gender, race/ethnicity,
maternal body mass index, delivery route, gestational weight
gain, gestational age at delivery, folic acid intake,
physical activity, maternal smoking and parity, antibiotic
use during pregnancy was associated with 138 g lower birth
weight compared with non-antibiotic use (β-coefficient=-132.99,
s.e.=50.70, P=0.008). These associations were strongest in
newborns of women who reported antibiotic use other than
penicillins (β-coefficient=-135.57, s.e.=57.38, P=0.02).
Methylation at five DMRs, IGF2 (P=0.05), H19 (P=0.15),
PLAGL1 (P=0.01), MEG3 (P=0.006) and PEG3 (P=0.08), was
associated with maternal antibiotic use; among these, only
methylation at the PLAGL1 DMR was also associated with birth

Abstract = {BACKGROUND: The workplace can be an important setting for
addressing obesity. An increasing number of employers offer
weight management programs. PURPOSE: Present the design,
rationale and baseline characteristics of the Steps to
Health study (STH), a randomized trial to evaluate the
effectiveness of two preexisting employee weight management
programs offered at Duke University and Medical Center.
METHODS: 550 obese (BMI ≥30) employee volunteers were
randomized 1:1 to two programs. Baseline data, collected
between January 2011 and July 2012, included height/weight,
accelerometry, workplace injuries, health care utilization,
and questionnaires querying socio-cognitive factors,
perceptions of health climate, physical activity, and
dietary intake. In secondary analyses participants in the
two programs will also be compared to a non-randomized
observational control group of obese employees. RESULTS: At
baseline, the mean age was 45 years, 83% were female, 41%
white, and 53% black. Mean BMI was 37.2. Participants
consumed a mean of 2.37 servings of fruits and vegetables
per day (in the past week), participated in 11.5 min of
moderate-to-vigorous physical activity, and spent 620 min
being sedentary. CONCLUSION: STH addresses the need for
evaluation of worksite interventions to promote healthy
weight. In addition to having direct positive effects on
workers' health, worksite programs have the potential to
increase productivity and reduce health care
costs.},

were mothers who had recently completed a randomized trial
of weight loss for overweight/obese postpartum women. As
measures of childhood appetitive traits, mothers completed
subscales of the Children's Eating Behavior Questionnaire,
including Desire to Drink (DD), Enjoyment of Food (EF), and
Satiety Responsiveness (SR), and a 24-h dietary recall for
their child. Heights and weights were measured for all
children and mothers and self-reported for mothers'
partners. The relationship between children's appetitive
traits and parental obesity on toddler weight gain and BMI
z-score were evaluated using multivariate linear regression
models, controlling for a number of potential
confounders.Having two obese parents was related to greater
weight gain from birth to 24 months independent of childhood
appetitive traits, and although significant associations
were found between appetitive traits (DD and SR) and child
BMI z-score at 24 months, these associations were observed
only among children who had two obese parents. When both
parents were obese, increasing DD and decreasing SR were
associated with a higher BMI z-score.The results highlight
the importance of considering familial risk factors when

Abstract = {BACKGROUND: Obesity is a prominent problem in the United
States and in North Carolina. One way of combating it is
with community-engaged interventions that foster
collaboration between health-oriented organizations and
community residents. PURPOSE: Our purpose was to assemble a
multifaceted group in Durham, North Carolina, to identify
factors affecting obesity-related lifestyle behaviors;
assess policies, resources, and the population's perception
of the problem of obesity; and develop plans to improve
health outcomes related to obesity. METHODS: A team
consisting of more than 2 dozen partners was assembled to
form Achieving Health for a Lifetime (AHL) in order to study
and address obesity in the community, initially focusing on
elementary school-age children. The team developed a
resource guide by collecting information by telephone
interviews of provider organizations; geospatial resource
maps were created using high-resolution geographic
information systems, Duke's Data Support Repository, and
county and city records; and focus groups were conducted
using the nominal group technique. RESULTS: The AHL team, in
collaboration with 2 other teams focused on diabetes and
cardiovascular disease, identified 32 resources for
diabetes, 20 for obesity, and 13 for cardiovascular disease.
Using Geographic Information Systems (GIS), the team
identified an area of Durham that had only 1 supermarket,
but 34 fast-food restaurants and 84 convenience stores.
LIMITATIONS: The focus on particular neighborhoods means
that the information obtained might not pertain to all
neighborhoods. CONCLUSION: The AHL team was able to assemble
a large community partnership in Durham that will allow the
members of the community to continue to work toward making
residents healthier. Communities facing similar challenges
can learn from this experience.},

Abstract = {Depressed mood in pregnancy has been linked to low birth
weight (LBW, < 2,500 g), a risk factor for adult-onset
chronic diseases in offspring. We examined maternal
depressed mood in relation to birth weight and evaluated the
role of DNA methylation at regulatory sequences of imprinted
genes in this association. We measured depressed mood among
922 pregnant women using the CES-D scale and obtained birth
weight data from hospital records. Using bisulfite
pyrosequencing of cord blood DNA from 508 infants, we
measured methylation at differentially methylated regions
(DMRs) regulating imprinted genes IGF2/H19, DLK1/MEG3, MEST,
PEG3, PEG10/SGCE, NNAT and PLAGL1. Multiple regression
models were used to examine the relationship between
depressed mood, birth weight and DMR methylation levels.
Depressed mood was associated with a more that 3-fold higher
risk of LBW, after adjusting for delivery mode, parity,
education, cigarette smoking, folic acid use and preterm
birth. The association may be more pronounced in offspring
of black women and female infants. Compared with infants of
women without depressed mood, infants born to women with
severe depressed mood had a 2.4% higher methylation at the
MEG3 DMR. Whereas LBW infants had 1.6% lower methylation at
the IGF2 DMR, high birth weight (> 4,500 g) infants had 5.9%
higher methylation at the PLAGL1 DMR compared with normal
birth weight infants. Our findings confirm that severe
maternal depressed mood in pregnancy is associated with LBW,
and that MEG3 and IGF2 plasticity may play important

Abstract = {OBJECTIVE: Parenting styles such as authoritarian,
disengaged, or permissive are thought to be associated with
greater adolescent obesity risk than an authoritative style.
This study assessed the relationship between parenting
styles and changes in body mass index (BMI) from adolescence
to young adulthood. METHOD: The study included self-reported
data from adolescents in the National Longitudinal Study of
Adolescent Health. Factor mixture modeling, a data-driven
approach, was used to classify participants into parenting
style groups based on measures of acceptance and control.
Latent growth modeling (LGM) identified patterns of
developmental changes in BMI. After a number of potential
confounders were controlled for, parenting style variables
were entered as predictors of BMI trajectories. Analyses
were also conducted for male and female individuals of 3
racial-ethnic groups (Hispanic, black, white) to assess
whether parenting styles were differentially associated with
BMI trajectories in these 6 groups. RESULTS: Parenting
styles were classified into 4 groups: authoritarian,
disengaged, permissive, and balanced. Compared with the
balanced parenting style, authoritarian and disengaged
parenting styles were associated with a less steep average
BMI increase (linear slope) over time, but also less
leveling off (quadratic) of BMI over time. Differences in
BMI trajectories were observed for various genders and
races, but the differences did not reach statistical
significance. CONCLUSION: Adolescents who reported having
parents with authoritarian or disengaged parenting styles
had greater increases in BMI as they transitioned to young
adulthood despite having a lower BMI trajectory through
adolescence.},

Abstract = {Individuals with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder
(ADHD) smoke cigarettes at higher rates and have greater
difficulty quitting than their non-diagnosed peers. This
study examined differences between smokers with and without
ADHD on a range of smoking-related variables. Twenty-two
subjects with ADHD and 22 controls completed self-report
measures of withdrawal symptoms, smoking motivation, sensory
experience of smoking, and positive and negative affect.
Compared to control smokers, smokers with ADHD reported
greater craving and negative affect; perceived smoking as
providing greater enhancement of concentration and
alertness, as more calming, and as providing a greater
decrease in irritability; found cigarette puffs to be more
enjoyable and satisfying; and rated smoking as providing
greater positive and negative reinforcement and greater
cognitive enhancement. Women with ADHD reported the greatest
effects of smoking on improving concentration and reducing
irritability. Findings support the hypothesis that smokers
with ADHD may experience smoking differently than smokers
without the disorder, and that they may identify different
motivations for smoking.},

Abstract = {Initial reactions to cigarettes predict later regular
smoking. Symptoms of attention deficit hyperactivity
disorder (ADHD) have also been shown to increase smoking
risk and may moderate the relationship between genotype and
smoking. We conducted an exploratory study to assess whether
ADHD symptoms interact with genetic variation to predict
self-reported initial reactions to smoking.Participants were
a subsample of 1,900 unrelated individuals with genotype
data drawn from the National Longitudinal Study of
Adolescent Health (Add Health), a nationally representative
sample of adolescents followed from 1995 to 2002. Linear
regression was used to examine relationships among
self-reported ADHD symptoms, genotype, and self-reported
initial reactions to cigarettes (index scores reflecting
pleasant and unpleasant reactions).Polymorphisms in the DRD2
gene, SLC6A4 gene, and among males, the MAOA gene interacted
with retrospective reports of ADHD symptoms in predicting
pleasant initial reaction to cigarettes. Polymorphisms in
the CYP2A6 gene and, among females, the MAOA gene interacted
with retrospective reports of ADHD symptoms in predicting
unpleasant initial reaction to cigarettes. No main effect
for any of these polymorphisms was observed nor were any
interactions with DRD4 and DAT genes.These findings suggest
that genotypes associated with monoamine neurotransmission
interact with ADHD symptoms to influence initial reactions
to cigarette smoking. Given that an initial pleasant
reaction to cigarettes increases risk for lifetime smoking,
these results add to a growing body of literature that
suggests that ADHD symptoms increase risk for smoking and
should be accounted for in genetic studies of
smoking.},

Abstract = {Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a highly
heterogeneous disorder, and the phenotypic structure
comprising inattentive and hyperactive-impulsive type
symptoms has been the focus of a growing body of recent
research. Methodological studies are needed to better
characterize phenotypes to advance research as well as
clinical practice. A large U.S. population-based sample of
young adults (N = 14,307, aged 17-28 years, 52.8% female)
retrospectively reported their experiences of childhood ADHD
symptoms. Factor analysis, latent class analysis, and factor
mixture modeling of ADHD symptoms were compared to determine
which underlying structure best fit the data. Fit statistics
as well as substantive criteria compared models within and
across model subtypes. Analyses supported a two-factor
two-class structure for both male and female subjects. The
two latent factors represented inattentive and
hyperactive-impulsive symptom dimensions. The two latent
classes divided people into a smaller affected class and a
larger unaffected class. Individuals who reported having
been diagnosed with ADHD were more likely to be in the
affected class (OR male subjects = 4.03, 95% CI [2.65,
6.13]; OR female subjects = 5.65, 95% CI [3.15, 10.10]).
This work aids in the understanding of ADHD symptomatology
within the population; a majority of people experience very
low symptom severity, whereas a minority of people
experience high symptom severity. Within this high symptom
group, however, variability in symptom experiences exists.
Empirical models can be helpful in clarifying ADHD
phenotypic structure that has the potential to advance
research on the etiology and consequences of ADHD
symptoms.},

Abstract = {Depression and variation in dopamine related genes have both
independently been associated with food consumption.
Depressive symptoms could synergistically interact with
genetic variation to influence food intake. We examined the
interaction between high depressive symptoms and functional
polymorphisms of dopamine transporter (SLC6A3), monoamine
oxidase A (MAOA), dopamine receptor D2 (DRD2) and dopamine
receptor D4 (DRD4) on intake of high-calorie sweet,
high-calorie non-sweet, and low-calorie foods in the
National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health (Add
Health). Multivariate linear regression analyses were used
to examine main effects of gene and depression symptoms and
their interaction (genotype-by-high depression symptoms) on
food categories. Applying a false discovery rate criterion
for multiple comparisons indicated a statistically
significant interaction for females with high depressive
symptoms and the SLC6A3 gene, such that those with the
SLC6A3 10/10 allele reported greater intake of high-calorie
sweet foods than their counterparts high in depressive
symptoms with the SLC6A3 any 9 allele (LS mean 10/10
allele=2.5, SE=.13; LS mean any 9 allele=1.8, SE=.13,
p<.05). These findings highlight that the relationship
between depression and food intake may vary as a function of
genetic polymorphism. Further research is needed to confirm
these findings.},

Abstract = {To examine the associations between attention-deficit/hyperactivity

adults in a large population-based cohort.The study
population consisted of 15,197 respondents from the National
Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health, a nationally
representative sample of adolescents followed from 1995 to
2009 in the United States. Multinomial logistic and logistic
models examined the odds of overweight, obesity and
hypertension in adulthood in relation to retrospectively
reported ADHD symptoms. Latent curve modeling was used to
assess the association between symptoms and naturally
occurring changes in body mass index (BMI) from adolescence
to adulthood.Linear association was identified between the
number of inattentive (IN) and hyperactive/impulsive (HI)
symptoms and waist circumference, BMI, diastolic blood
pressure and systolic blood pressure (all P-values for trend
<0.05). Controlling for demographic variables, physical
activity, alcohol use, smoking and depressive symptoms,
those with three or more HI or IN symptoms had the highest
odds of obesity (HI 3+, odds ratio (OR)=1.50, 95% confidence
interval (CI) = 1.22-2.83; IN 3+, OR = 1.21, 95% CI =
1.02-1.44) compared with those with no HI or IN symptoms. HI
symptoms at the 3+ level were significantly associated with
a higher OR of hypertension (HI 3+, OR = 1.24, 95% CI =
1.01-1.51; HI continuous, OR = 1.04, 95% CI = 1.00-1.09),
but associations were nonsignificant when models were
adjusted for BMI. Latent growth modeling results indicated
that compared with those reporting no HI or IN symptoms,
those reporting 3 or more symptoms had higher initial levels
of BMI during adolescence. Only HI symptoms were associated
with change in BMI.Self-reported ADHD symptoms were
associated with adult BMI and change in BMI from adolescence
to adulthood, providing further evidence of a link between
ADHD symptoms and obesity.},

Abstract = {Studies on parent-child correlations of physical activity
have been mixed. Few studies have examined concurrent
temporal patterns of physical activity and sedentary
behaviors in parents and children using direct measures. The
purpose of this study was to examine parent-child activity
correlations by gender, day of week, and time of day, using
accelerometers - a method for direct assessment of physical
activity.Accelerometers were used to assess physical
activity and sedentary time in 45 fathers, 45 mothers and
their children (23 boys, 22 girls, mean age 9.9 years) over
the course of 4 days (Thursday - Sunday). Participants were
instructed to wear accelerometers for 24 hours per day. Data
from accelerometers were aggregated into waking hours on
weekdays and weekends (6:00 am to midnight) and weekday
after-school hours (3:00 - 7:00 pm).Across the 4 days, the
mean minutes per day of moderate-to-vigorous physical
activity (MVPA) for fathers was 30.0 (s.d. = 17.3), for
mothers was 30.1 (s.d. = 20.1) and for children was 145.47
(s.d. = 51.64). Mothers' and fathers' minutes of MVPA and
minutes of sedentary time were positively correlated with
child physical activity and sedentary time (all ps < .05,
with the exception of mothers' and children's sedentary time
on weekdays from 6 am to 12 am). Multivariate linear
regression analyses resulted in significant effects between
parents and children for MVPA across all time segments. For
sedentary activity, significant associations were observed
only between father and child on the weekend. Sedentary
activity of parents and children were not related for other
time segments. Models examining the associations of one or
two parents with high levels of MVPA or sedentary time
indicated a dose response increase in child activity
relative to parent.Greater parental MVPA was associated with
increased child MVPA. In addition, having two parents with
higher levels of MVPA was associated with greater levels of
activity in children. Sedentary time in children was not as
strongly correlated with that of their parents. Findings
lend support to the notion that to increase childhood
activity levels it may be fruitful to improve physical
activity among parents.},

as household chores. Separate structural models (LISREL 8.7)
for girls and boys tested whether parental attitudes were
related to child TV and computer via child attitudes, sport
team participation, and physical activity, controlling for
demographic factors.Child 7-day physical activity, sport
teams, weekly TV, computer.Parent-child attitude congruence
was more prevalent among boys, and attitudes varied by
ethnicity, parent education, and number of children.
Positive parent-child attitudes for vigorous team sports
were related to increased team participation and physical
activity, as well as reduced TV and computer in boys and
girls. Value of moderate intensity household chores, such as
cleaning house and doing laundry, was related to decreased
team participation and increased TV in boys. Only organized
team sports, not general physical activity, was related to
reduced TV and computer.Results support parents' role in
socializing children's achievement task values, affecting
child activity by transferring specific attitudes. Value of
vigorous intensity sports provided the most benefits to
activity and reduction of sedentary behavior, while valuing
household chores had unexpected negative
effects.},

Abstract = {Depression and Genetic variation in serotonin and monoamine
transmission have both been associated with body mass index
(BMI), but their interaction effects are not well
understood. We examined the interaction between depressive
symptoms and functional polymorphisms of serotonin
transporter (SLC6A4) and monoamine oxidase A (MAOA) on
categories of BMI. Participants were from the National
Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health. Multiple logistic
regression was used to investigate interactions between
candidate genes and depression on risk of obesity (BMI > or
= 30) or overweight + obese combined (BMI > or = 25). Males
with an MAOA active allele with high depressive symptoms
were at decreased risk of obesity (OR 0.22; 95% CI
0.06-0.78) and overweight + obesity (OR 0.48; 95% CI
0.26-0.89). No similar effect was observed among females.
These findings highlight that the obesity-depression
relationship may vary as a function of gender and genetic
polymorphism, and suggest the need for further
study.},

Abstract = {Lifestyle factors related to energy balance, including
weight, dietary behavior and physical activity, are
associated with cancer risk. The period of childhood and
growth into adolescence and early adulthood may re-present a
'cumulative risk' for later adult-onset cancers. We review a
number of epidemiologic studies that have examined
associations among childhood and adolescent body size, diet,
and physical activity with adult cancer risk. These studies
suggest that unhealthy behaviors that develop early in life
and persist over time may increase the risk of some cancer
types, such as premenopausal breast, ovarian, endometrial,
colon and renal cancer, adversely affect cancer-related
morbidities, and increase mortality. Continued research is
needed to further determine and refine how timing and degree
of such exposures in early childhood and adolescence relate
to adult cancer risk. Presently, sufficient evidence
suggests a continued need for stronger primary prevention in
cancer and obesity research via modified lifestyle behaviors
earlier in the developmental spectrum, i.e. during childhood
and adolescence.},

self-efficacy for engaging in these health behaviors.Results
indicated that changes in self-efficacy for fat restriction

Abstract = {OBJECTIVE: Given links between obesity and cancer, we
estimated incident cancer burden due to overweight and
obesity at the state level in the United States. METHODS AND
PROCEDURES: Using state rankings by per capita burden of
incident cancer cases diagnosed in 2003 that were related to
overweight and obesity, we examined the frequency with which
states ranked in the highest and lowest quintiles of
weight-related burden for cancers of the postmenopausal
breast, endometrium, kidney, colon, and prostate. In this
study, data from the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance
System (BRFSS), US Census, US Mortality Public Use Data
Tapes, and National Cancer Institute Surveillance,
Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) Program were used.
RESULTS: Western states had the lowest weight-related cancer
burden for both sexes. Iowa, South Dakota, and West Virginia
had the highest burden for all three types of male cancers.
West Virginia is the only state that ranked in the quintile
of highest weight-related burden for all four cancers
considered in women. DISCUSSION: For certain cancers,
including endometrial, postmenopausal breast, and colon
cancers, states with high burdens clustered in geographic
regions, warranting further inquiry. Although state ranks
for the total cancer burden and the prevalence of overweight
and obesity correlated with state ranks for weight-related
incident cancer burden, they often served poorly as its
proxy. Such a finding cautions against simply targeting
states with high overweight and obesity or high total
burdens of cancers for which overweight and obesity are risk
factors, as this approach may not reach areas of
unrecognized burden.},

Abstract = {To evaluate the relation between smoking and trauma exposure
in a population-based, longitudinal sample. Contrary to

findings indicate continued high smoking rates in
trauma-exposed samples.A nationally representative sample of
15,197 adolescents was followed from 1995 (mean age, 15.6
years) to 2002 (mean age, 22 years) as part of three waves
of The National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health (Add

trauma exposure and smoking behaviors (lifetime regular,
current regular), nicotine dependence based on the
Fagerström Test of Nicotine Dependence (FTND), number of
cigarettes smoked per day, and age of onset of regular
smoking.Controlling for demographics and depressive
symptoms, exposure to traumatic events yielded a significant
increase in the odds of lifetime regular smoking. Nicotine
dependence and cigarettes smoked per day was also
significantly related to exposure to childhood physical and
sexual abuse. Decreased age of regular smoking onset was
seen for those reporting childhood physical abuse and
childhood sexual abuse.Exposure to traumatic life events
during childhood and young adulthood increases the risk of
smoking, highlighting the need to prevent and treat tobacco
use in this vulnerable population.},

Abstract = {OBJECTIVE: This study addressed the hypothesis that
variation in genes associated with dopamine function
(SLC6A3, DRD2, DRD4), serotonin function (SLC6A4, and
regulation of monoamine levels (MAOA) may be predictive of
BMI categories (obese and overweight + obese) in young
adulthood and of changes in BMI as adolescents transition
into young adulthood. Interactions with gender and
race/ethnicity were also examined. METHODS AND PROCEDURES:
Participants were a subsample of individuals from the
National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health (Add
Health), a nationally representative sample of adolescents
followed from 1995 to 2002. The sample analyzed included a
subset of 1,584 unrelated individuals with genotype data.
Multiple logistic regressions were conducted to evaluate the
associations between genotypes and obesity (BMI > 29.9) or
overweight + obese combined (BMI > or = 25) with normal
weight (BMI = 18.5-24.9) as a referent. Linear regression
models were used to examine change in BMI from adolescence
to young adulthood. RESULTS: Significant associations were
found between SLC6A4 5HTTLPR and categories of BMI, and
between MAOA promoter variable number tandem repeat (VNTR)
among men and categories of BMI. Stratified analyses
revealed that the association between these two genes and
excess BMI was significant for men overall and for white and
Hispanic men specifically. Linear regression models
indicated a significant effect of SLC6A4 5HTTLPR on change
in BMI from adolescence to young adulthood. DISCUSSION: Our
findings lend further support to the involvement of genes
implicated in dopamine and serotonin regulation on energy
balance.},

Abstract = {Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) symptoms are
associated with an increased risk of smoking, and genetic
studies have identified similar candidate genes associated
with both ADHD and smoking phenotypes. This paper addresses
the question of whether ADHD symptoms interact with
candidate gene variation to predict smoking risk.
Participants were a subsample of individuals from the
National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health (Add
Health), a nationally representative sample of adolescents
followed from 1995 to 2002. The sample analyzed included a
subset from Add Health of 1,900 unrelated individuals with
genotype data. Multiple logistic regression was used to
examine relationships between self-reported ADHD symptoms,
genotype, and lifetime history of regular smoking.
Polymorphisms in the DRD2 gene and, among females, the MAOA
gene interacted with retrospective reports of ADHD symptoms
in contributing to risk for smoking. Trends were observed
for interactions between the DRD4 gene and, among males, the
MAOA gene and ADHD symptoms to predict smoking risk. No main
effect for any of these polymorphisms was observed. We
observed neither main effects nor interactions with CYP2A6,
DAT, and SLC6A4 genes. These findings suggest that genotypes
associated with catecholamine neurotransmission interact
with ADHD symptoms to contribute to smoking

examine ADHD symptoms from both the inattentive (IN) and

Linear regression was used to examine nicotine dependence.
RESULTS: HI symptoms were associated with progression from
nonsmoking to regular smoking (OR = 1.14, 95% CI =
1.07-1.21), and with progression from experimentation to
regular smoking (OR = 1.16, 95% CI = 1.08-1.26). IN and HI

Participants included 80 mothers and their children. Half of

Children in both groups ranged in age from 8 to 19 years.
Assessments included measures of maternal stressors and
resources, maternal and child adjustment and posttraumatic
stress, and maternal coping and illness uncertainty reported
by both mothers and their children. RESULTS: Few differences
were found between the groups, although there was a trend
for girls of mothers with breast cancer to have a higher
frequency of depressive symptoms. Children of mothers who
perceived support from friends and family had fewer
depressive symptoms, after we controlled for child gender.
CONCLUSIONS: The social support perceived by mothers with
breast cancer may serve as a protective factor for their
children's psychological adjustment.},

Abstract = {BACKGROUND: Increasing rates of obesity in the population
have made prevention a high public health priority. Policy
strategies for curtailing obesity have been recommended, yet
there has been little research on the degree of public
support for policy-level interventions. METHODS:
Participants for this study included 1139 respondents who
were surveyed as part of the Research Triangle Institute
Obesity Telephone Survey conducted in September 2004.
Participants were asked to indicate to what degree they
favor specific healthcare and work policy strategies for
treating and preventing adult obesity. Participants were
also asked about their beliefs regarding the causes of
obesity. RESULTS: A majority (85%) favored a policy change
strategy that offered employers tax breaks if they provided
adequate exercise facilities in the workplace. Seventy-three
percent favored a move by healthcare companies to require
obesity treatment and prevention. The same proportion (72%)
favored beneficiary discounts by employers or healthcare
companies to motivate individuals to maintain or move toward
a healthy weight. Majorities endorsed a lack of willpower
and the cost of healthy food as causes. Nearly two thirds
did not believe genes or lack of knowledge was related to
obesity in society, and the sample was split with regard to
the belief that obesity is caused by society. CONCLUSIONS:
The findings suggest that there is strong support for
healthcare and employment policies in obesity prevention and
treatment. These findings may be important to policymakers
in developing population-based strategies to prevent
obesity.},

tobacco-use prevention program delivered in schools with
primarily African-American students. Students randomly by
classroom to either the intervention (n=58) or to a
no-treatment control group (n=40). Students in the
intervention grup recieved a curriculum-based program over
the course of 10 sessions. Pre-and-assestment of tobacco
knowledge, attitudes, communication, peer refusal, and
smoking tendency were gathered. Students in the intervention
group differed from their peers in the control group by
evidencing greater knowledge and communication skills. We

Abstract = {Specific memory deficits, reduced intellectual processing
speed, and a variety of social and behavioral problems have
been implicated as long-term effects of cranial radiation
therapy (CRT). These deficits are thought to be related to
changes in brain cytology and structure associated with
microvascular aberrations. N-3 fatty acids may serve as
protectants in pediatric patients who receive CRT for brain
tumors. Timed-pregnant rat dams were fed one of four diets
that were identical in all respects, except for their
essential fatty acid content. The dams were placed on these
diets at the beginning of the third trimester of gestation
and their pups remained on them throughout the study. The
rats' behavioral response as judged by acoustic startle
response (ASR) and neurocognitive response (performance in a
radial maze, RM) were evaluated in relation to diet, gender,
and CRT. The following hypotheses were tested: (1) female
rats will show greater CRT-induced neurocognitive and
behavioral deficits; (2) dietary n-3 fatty acids will
diminish CRT-induced neurocognitive and behavioral deficits;
(3) gender-specific differences would be dampened by n-3
fatty acids in the diet. All three hypotheses were partially
supported. These findings are discussed in light of the
potential neuroprotective effects of n-3 fatty
acids.},

mediators for fruit and vegetable (FV) intake in a
clustered, randomized effectiveness trial conducted in
African American churches. The study sample included 14
churches (8 intervention and 6 control) with 470
participants from the intervention churches and 285
participants from the control churches. The outcome of FV
intake and the proposed mediators were measured at baseline
and at 6-month follow-up. Structural equation modeling
indicated that the intervention had direct effects on social
support, self-efficacy, and autonomous motivation; these
variables also had direct effects on FV intake. Applying the
M. E. Sobel (1982) formula to test significant mediated
effects, the authors confirmed that social support and
self-efficacy were significant mediators but that autonomous
motivation was not. Social support and self-efficacy
partially mediated 20.9% of the total effect of the
intervention on changes in FV intake. The results support
the use of strategies to increase social support and
self-efficacy in dietary intervention programs.},

Abstract = {PURPOSE: Accelerometers are recognized as a valid and

Despite the widespread use of accelerometers, there is no

This paper a) reviews decision rules researchers have used

METHODS: The methods sections of studies published in 2003
and 2004 were reviewed to determine what decision rules
previous researchers have used to identify wearing period,
minimal wear requirement for a valid day, spurious data,
number of days used to calculate the outcome variables, and
extract bouts of moderate to vigorous physical activity
(MVPA). For this study, four data reduction algorithms that
employ different decision rules were used to analyze the
same data set. RESULTS: The review showed that among studies
that reported their decision rules, much variability was
observed. Overall, the analyses suggested that using
different algorithms impacted several important outcome
variables. The most stringent algorithm yielded
significantly lower wearing time, the lowest activity counts
per minute and counts per day, and fewer minutes of MVPA per
day. An exploratory sensitivity analysis revealed that the
most stringent inclusion criterion had an impact on sample
size and wearing time, which in turn affected many outcome
variables. CONCLUSIONS: These findings suggest that the
decision rules employed to process accelerometer data have a
significant impact on important outcome variables. Until

Abstract = {CONTEXT: Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) has
been associated with increased risk of smoking, and some
studies have suggested that inattentive symptoms
specifically may underlie this risk. Few studies, however,
have examined ADHD symptoms in nonclinical samples to
determine the extent to which the number of
symptoms-independent of the full diagnosis-confer risk for
smoking-related outcomes. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the
relation between smoking-related variables and the number of
retrospectively reported ADHD inattentive and
hyperactive/impulsive symptoms in a population-based sample
of young adults. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS: The
study population consists of 15 197 eligible participants
from wave III of the National Longitudinal Study of
Adolescent Health, a nationally representative sample of
adolescents followed from 1995 to 2002. MAIN OUTCOME
MEASURES: Logistic regression was used to examine the
relation between self-reported ADHD symptoms and the
lifetime likelihood of being a regular smoker, defined by
having smoked at least 1 cigarette a day for 30 days. For
individuals reporting regular smoking, we also examined the
extent to which ADHD symptoms predicted age at onset of
regular smoking and number of cigarettes smoked. RESULTS: A
linear relation was identified between the number of
self-reported inattentive and hyperactive/impulsive symptoms
and smoking outcome measures (P<.001 for each symptom
domain). Controlling for demographic and conduct disorder
symptoms, each reported inattention and hyperactivity/impulsivity
symptom significantly increased the likelihood of ever
regular smoking (odds ratio [OR], 1.11; 95% confidence
interval [CI], 1.08-1.14 and OR, 1.16; 95% CI, 1.13-1.19,
respectively). For those reporting lifetime regular smoking,
reported symptoms decreased the estimated age at onset and
increased the number of cigarettes smoked. CONCLUSIONS:
Self-reported ADHD symptoms were found to be associated with
adult smoking outcome variables in this nationally
representative sample, providing further evidence of a
likely link between ADHD symptoms and risk for tobacco
use.},

Abstract = {In this study, we compared levels of posttraumatic stress
symptoms (PTSS) and general psychological distress between
parents of childhood cancer survivors and parents of
children with Type 1 diabetes mellitus (DM1). In this study,
we also examined potential risk factors for PTSS.
Participants included 47 parents of childhood cancer
survivors and 31 parents of children with DM1. Participants
completed self-report measures of posttraumatic stress,
general psychological distress, coping strategies, social
network size, and perceived illness uncertainty. Findings
revealed that parents of children surviving cancer reported
higher levels of PTSS and general distress than parents of
children with DM1. In the total sample, lower levels of
emotion-focused coping and greater perceived uncertainty
were associated with increased frequency of both PTSS and
general psychological distress after we accounted for
demographic and illness variables. Having a child with
cancer may increase the risk for experiencing PTSS.
Interventions are warranted that focus specifically on the
reduction of PTSS in parents of children surviving cancer.

Abstract = {OBJECTIVE: Assessed the feasibility, acceptability, and
sustainability of Planet Health, an interdisciplinary,
integrated health education curriculum implemented in six
public middle schools. METHODS: Workshops on Planet Health
implementation were attended by 129 teachers (language arts,
math, science, and social studies) over three school years
(1999-2000, 2000-2001, and 2001-2002). Questionnaires were
administered post-implementation and in the fall and spring
of each year. Outcomes were dose, acceptability,
feasibility, and intent to continue use. RESULTS: The
average number of lessons taught per teacher per year was
1.7 to 3.1, compared to a goal of 2 to 3. Each year,
teachers reported high acceptability and perceived
feasibility of the intervention, and the majority indicated
they intended to continue using the curriculum. CONCLUSIONS:
Planet Health was feasible and acceptable in a participatory
research model involving a public school-university
partnership, and it was also sustainable independent of the
research effort.},

Abstract = {Our study examined the relationship between parental
overprotection and perceived child vulnerability to
self-reported depressive symptoms in 8- to 12-year-old
children diagnosed with type 1 Diabetes Mellitus. The
moderating influence of parenting stress was also examined.
Mothers (N = 43) completed measures of parental
over-protection, perceived child vulnerability, and
parenting stress, and the children completed a measure of
child depression. Findings revealed that both child
vulnerability and parenting stress were associated with
higher levels of depressive symptoms; no relationship was
found between overprotection and child depressive symptoms.
Regression results further indicated that parenting stress
moderated the relationship between perceived child
vulnerability and depressive symptomotology. Thus, parenting
stress appears to magnify the relationship between perceived
child vulnerability and child-reported depressive symptoms.
Our findings lend additional empirical support for the
transactional relationship between discrete parenting
variables and child distress. These results also support the
view that overprotection and child vulnerability are
distinct but overlapping constructs. Interventions that
target specific parenting approaches and general parenting
stress may be effective in ameliorating child
distress.},

levels of restraint) and perceived family functioning on the
self-reported adjustment of children with cancer and their
caregivers. Perceived quality of family relationships and
supportiveness among family members were examined as a
potential moderator on the association between repressive
adaptation and self-reported adjustment. Participants were
58 children surviving cancer and their caregivers. We
conducted a multiple regression analysis to determine if
perceived family relationships characterized by support
would buffer the influence of repressive adaptation on
self-reported adjustment difficulties. Results showed that
the variable of perceived family relationships characterized
by support moderated the association between repressive
adaptation and adjustment for caregivers but not for
children. Family relationship support served to buffer the
negative association that high levels of repressive
adaptation have on self-reported adjustment. Recommendations
for intervention on a family-systems level are provided as

Abstract = {Objective: To examine the relation of illness intrusiveness
and illness uncertainty to psychological distress in
patients with multiple sclerosis (MS). Study Design:
Participants were recruited from regional support groups and
local neurologists. Participants completed self-report
measures of illness intrusiveness, illness uncertainty, and
psychological distress. Disease status was assessed by
administration of a mental status exam and an index of
ambulation. Participants: The sample included 78 (55 women,
23 men) individuals diagnosed with MS. Main Outcome Measure:
The Symptom Checklist - 90 - Revised Global Severity Index.
Results: Hierarchical regression analyses indicated that
illness intrusiveness and illness uncertainty independently
predicted adjustment problems above and beyond demographic
and illness variables. No mediator or moderator
relationships were found for illness intrusiveness.
Conclusions: Psychological appraisals of illness are salient
predictors of adjustment even after statistically
controlling for the influence of age, education, and
objective indices of physical and cognitive
impairment.},

Abstract = {In this preliminary study we examined both posttraumatic
stress and general distress among parents of children
diagnosed with a brain tumor. Participants included 28
parents of children diagnosed with a brain tumor who
completed self-report measures of posttraumatic stress,
general distress, coping, and illness uncertainty. Findings
revealed that participants reported high levels of
posttraumatic stress and general distress. Greater levels of
emotion-focused coping and perceived uncertainty were
associated with a higher frequency of both posttraumatic
stress symptoms and general distress. However, perceived
uncertainty was the strongest predictor of both indexes of
distress. Emotion-focused coping predicted general distress,
but not posttraumatic stress symptom severity. Overall,
parents of children surviving a brain tumor appear to be a
risk for both posttraumatic stress and general distress.
Uncertainty in illness may constitute a primary risk factor
for adjustment problems.},
