    Abstract: Low vitamin D status has been linked to an increased risk for various inflammatory diseases. Conflicting results have been reported regarding chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). This study aims to investigate the associations of serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) concentrations with COPD risk and survival. Methods We included 403 648 participants with serum 25(OH)D measurements and free of COPD at baseline from UK Biobank. Follow-up was until 30 September 2021. Multivariable-adjusted cox regression models were applied to estimate HRs and 95% CIs for the associations of season-standardised 25(OH)D concentrations with COPD risk and survival. The restricted cubic splines were used to assess dose–response relationship. Kaplan-Meier estimation was used to create graphs of the survival curves. Results During a median follow-up of 12.3 (IQR: 11.4–13.2) years, 11 008 cases of COPD were recorded. We observed a non-linear inverse association between 25(OH)D concentrations and COPD risk. Compared with participants in the fourth quintile of 25(OH)D, those in the lowest quintile were associated with a 23% higher risk (HR, 1.23; 95% CI, 1.16 to 1.31). Stronger associations were observed for the risk in men and current smokers (Both p for interaction 〈 0.05). In survival analyses, compared with the fourth quintile, cases in the lowest quintile had a 38% higher risk for overall death (HR, 1.38; 95% CI, 1.22 to 1.56). Conclusion Our findings indicate that serum 25(OH)D concentrations are non-linearly negatively associated with incidence and mortality of COPD, suggesting a potential protective role of vitamin D in the pathogenesis of COPD.

    Abstract: Objectives: To investigate the association between birth weight and the risk of hypertension, and to examine the interaction between birth weight and the adult obesity index. Methods: We included 199,893 participants who had birth weight data and no history of hypertension at baseline (2006–2010) from the UK Biobank. A multivariate cubic regression spline was used to visually explore the dose-response relationship. Multivariate Cox proportional hazard regression models were used to calculate hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Results: We observed a nonlinear inverse association between birth weight and hypertension. The risk for hypertension decreased as birth weight increased up to approximately 3.80 kg. Compared with the participants with the fourth quintile of birth weight (3.43–3.80 kg), those with the first quartile of birth weight ( & lt;2.88 kg) were associated with a 25% higher risk of hypertension [HR 1.25; 95% CI (1.18–1.32)]. In addition, the participants with birth weight & lt;2.88 kg and body mass index ≥30 kg/m 2 had the highest risk [HR 3.54; 95% CI (3.16–3.97); p for interaction & lt;0.0001], as compared with those with birth weight between 3.43–3.80 kg and body mass index between 18.5–25.0 kg/m 2 . These associations were largely consistent in the stratified and sensitivity analyses. Conclusion: Our findings indicate that lower birth weight is nonlinearly correlated with higher risk of hypertension, and birth weight between 3.43–3.80 kg might represent an intervention threshold. Moreover, lower birth weight may interact with adult obesity to significantly increase hypertension risk.

    Abstract: It remains undetermined whether neuroticism affects the risk of lung cancer. Therefore, we performed complementary observational and Mendelian randomization (MR) analyses to investigate the association between neuroticism and lung cancer risk. Methods We included 364,451 UK Biobank participants free of cancer at baseline. Neuroticism was ascertained using the 12-item of Eysenck Personality Inventory Neuroticism Scale. Multivariable Cox regression models were used to calculate hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Two-sample MR analysis was carried out with summary genetic data from UK Biobank (374,323 individuals) and International Lung Cancer Consortium (29,266 lung cancer cases and 56,450 controls). Furthermore, we calculated a polygenic risk score of lung cancer, and examined the joint-effect and interaction between neuroticism and genetic susceptibility on lung cancer risk. Results During a median follow-up of 7.13 years, 1573 lung cancer cases were documented. After adjusting for smoking and other confounders, higher neuroticism was associated with an increased risk of lung cancer (HR per 1 SD =1.07, 95% CI: 1.02-1.12). Consistently, MR analysis suggested a causal effect of neuroticism on lung cancer risk (OR IVW =1.10, 95% CI: 1.03-1.17). Compared to individuals with low neuroticism and low PRS, those with both high neuroticism and high PRS had the greatest risk of lung cancer (HR=1.82, 95%CI: 1.51-2.20). Furthermore, there was a positive additive but no multiplicative interaction between neuroticism and genetic risk. Conclusions Our findings suggest that neuroticism is associated with an elevated risk of incident lung cancer, which is strengthened by the genetic susceptibility to lung cancer. Further studies are necessary to elucidate underlying mechanisms.
