“…There was also an association between alcohol intake, smoking and obesity which is consistent with existing research (Gornall, 2014;Mizuno et al, 2005). However, it must be noted that parents of children with DD drank less than parents of typically developing children.…”

“…through health behaviours such as smoking etc). In fact, some have argued that engagement in unhealthy health behaviours such as smoking and alcohol use are associated with several long term mental health and physical health disorders including obesity (Bonevski, Regan, Paul, Baker, & Bisquera, 2014;Gornall, 2014;Mizuno et al, 2005;Suter, 2005). Although research on caregiver health behaviours is rather limited, one recent study has found that younger caregivers of patients with Alzheimer's disease smoke more than older carers (SalgadoGarcia et al, 2013), implying that younger caregivers may be more vulnerable and cope with the stresses of caring by smoking more.…”

Epidemiological evidence suggests that obesity and depression are highly co-morbid. In a national cohort study, we examined whether parents caring for children with disabilities were more likely to be classified as obese compared to parents of children without disabilities and if obesity was associated with depressive symptoms or child behaviour characteristics. Using data from the Growing Up in Ireland National Longitudinal Study of Children (2006 to date), 627 parents of children with developmental disabilities were compared with 7,941 parents of typically developing children on objectively measured levels of obesity (body mass index ≥30 kg/m 2 ), depression, health behaviors, chronic health conditions, socio-demographic and child behavioural characteristics. Parents of children with disabilities were more likely to be classified as obese compared to control parents (24.5% vs. 19.6%, p=0.005, Cramer's V < 0.1). Depression was not associated with obesity. However, the odds of obesity increased with increasing child problem behaviour (OR 1.05, 95% CI 1.03 to 1.06). Over half (57%) of obese parents caring for children with disabilities reported trying to lose weight often or very often. This study has confirmed, in a population-based sample, the high risk of obesity in parents caring for children with disabilities after adjusting for the presence of depression and other health behaviours; increasing child problem behaviours were predictive of obesity.Importantly, given the negative health correlates of obesity, it is imperative that health professionals pay attention to weight issues in these parents and support their efforts in managing these issues.

“…These findings were consistent with a previous study [31] . Mizuno et al [31] proposed that WC showed no difference between non-obese subjects with or without a smoking habit. Nonetheless, WC was significantly higher in obese subjects who smoked than those who did not.…”

AIM:To investigate the association of fatty liver and smoking on metabolic syndrome and its components. METHODS:This cross-sectional study enrolled participants who attended annual health screening at Shin Kong Wu Ho-Su Memorial Hospital from January to December 2005. A total of 3455 (1981 men and 1474 women) subjects were included in final analyses. Fatty liver was diagnosed using abdominal ultrasonography by trained gastroenterologists. The modified National Cholesterol Education Program Adult Treatment Panel Ⅲ was used to define metabolic syndrome. The associations between smoking, fatty liver and metabolic syndrome were analyzed using multiple logistic regression. RESULTS:Subjects with fatty liver, and who smoked tobacco, had the highest odds ratios (ORs) for high waist circumference [OR, 4.5 (95% CI: 3.3-6.1), P < 0.05], hypertriglyceridemia [OR, 8.1 (95% CI: 6.0-10.9), P < 0.05], low serum high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) [OR, 8.3 (95% CI: 6.1-11.3), P < 0.05], and metabolic syndrome [OR, 9.5 (95% CI: 6.7-13.4), P < 0.05] compared to subjects without fatty liver who did not smoke tobacco. We also found that the ORs for hypertriglyceridemia, low serum HDL-C, and metabolic syndrome for subjects with fatty liver who smoked tobacco had greater than the sum of the ORs for subjects with fatty liver who did not smoke plus those who did not have fatty liver and who did smoke.CONCLUSION: Fatty liver and smoking had a synergistic effect on metabolic syndrome and its components, especially for hypertriglyceridemia and low serum HDL-C.

“…In a study that used both obese and non-obese subjects divided into smoking and non-smoking groups, Mizuno et al reported that smokers had larger waist circumferences than never smokers among the obese subjects, suggesting that smoking may lead to increased abdominal fat accumulation [33]. However, the question that remains from this study is why, among the lipid profile factors, it affected only the HDL cholesterol.…”

: It has been reported that arterial stiffness assessed by pulse wave velocity (PWV) can predict cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Metabolic syndrome and smoking are independently associated with increased risk of cardiovascular disease. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of smoking on the relationship between metabolic syndrome and arterial stiffness. We retrospectively enrolled 1,530 men on whom brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) measurement had previously been performed as part of health screening at Kosin University Hospital. We found that PWV was positively correlated with the following variables: age (r = 0.391, P < 0.0001), systolic blood pressure (r = 0.438, P < 0.0001), diastolic blood pressure (r = 0.377, P < 0.0001), low-density lipoprotein (LDL) (r = 0.068, P = 0.008) and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) (r = 0.027, P = 0.287), whereas BMI was negatively correlated, although without statistical significance (r = -0.026, P = 0.309). Among current smokers, PWV decreased with increasing BMI (from 1,387.9 to 1,311.6), and increased with increasing HDL (from 1,342.7 to 1,385.4). On the other hand, among never smokers, PWV increased with increasing BMI (from 1,382.3 to 1,458.8), and decreased with increasing HDL (from 1,391.2 to 1,369.7). PWV was inversely associated with BMI and HDL, and these differences are likely due to smoking.
