PurposeMany countries recommend human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination in female adolescents at an age when other vaccines are routinely administered. This open, randomized, multicenter study (108464/NCT00426361) evaluated coadministration of HPV-16/18 AS04-adjuvanted vaccine with diphtheria-tetanus-acellular pertussis–inactivated poliovirus vaccine (dTpa-IPV).MethodsHealthy females aged 10–18 years were randomized to receive HPV vaccine at months 0, 1, and 6 (n = 248), HPV vaccine coadministered with dTpa-IPV at month 0 and HPV vaccine at months 1 and 6 (n = 255), or dTpa-IPV at month 0 followed by HPV vaccine at months 1, 2, and 7 (n = 248). Immunogenicity was evaluated at months 0, 1, and 7 or 8 (depending on group). Vaccine reactogenicity and safety were also assessed.ResultsCoadministered dTpa-IPV and HPV vaccine was noninferior to dTpa-IPV alone in terms of seroprotection against diphtheria (99.2% and 100%), tetanus (100% and 100%) and poliovirus types 1, 2, and 3 (≥99.6%), and geometric mean antibody concentrations (ELISA Units/mL) for pertussis toxoid (84 vs. 75), filamentous hemagglutinin (612 and 615) and pertactin (426 and 360) at month 1. Coadministered dTpa-IPV and HPV vaccine was noninferior to HPV vaccine alone in terms of seroconversion rates for HPV-16 (99.5% and 100%) and HPV-18 (99.5% and 100%) and geometric mean antibody titers (ELISA Units/mL) for HPV-16 (15,608 and 18,965) and HPV-18 (6,597 and 6,902) at month 7. Coadministration was generally well tolerated. The reactogenicity of dTpa-IPV and the first dose of HPV vaccine was similar.ConclusionsResults from this study support coadministration of the HPV-16/18 AS04-adjuvanted vaccine with dTpa-IPV vaccine in females aged 10–18 years. 相似文献

The human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine has the potential to decrease the incidence of several cancers that affect women and men. Despite recommendations by the medical and public health community, and the incorporation of the vaccine into the adolescent immunization schedule, uptake of the vaccine remains well below target goals. To understand potential physician barriers to recommendation and provision of the vaccine, a cross-sectional survey was administered to Hawai‘i pediatricians and family physicians from July 2012 to September 2012 on their attitudes, practices, and perceived barriers regarding HPV vaccination. Surveys were mailed to 465 members of the local pediatrics and family medicine professional chapters, and 87 responses were received for a response rate of 19%. After excluding 14 responses, 73 surveys were included in the analysis. Although almost all of the respondents reported stocking and administering the HPV vaccine in their offices, only 71% reported strongly recommending the HPV vaccine to girls 11–12 years, and only 57% strongly recommend the vaccine to boys 11–12 years old. Lack of insurance coverage and other financial considerations were barriers to provision of the vaccine by physicians. Physicians who felt it is necessary to discuss sexuality with patients prior to recommending the vaccine were significantly less likely to strongly recommend the vaccine to boys 11–12 years old. Public health efforts should focus on addressing the financial barriers and encouraging physicians to recommend the HPV vaccine according to the guidelines. 相似文献

Glaxo Smith Kline’s Cervarix was the first human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine licensed for use in China and officially launched there on 31 July 2017. Since news media content can influence people’s vaccine-related knowledge, understanding, and intentions, a content analysis was used to examine Chinese newspapers’ coverage of the HPV vaccine. A total of 253 articles published from 2000 to 2016 met the inclusion criteria and were coded. The results show that HPV and the HPV vaccine received very little newspaper coverage in China both before and after vaccine licensure. Most of the coverage came from China Party press newspapers, with the stories predominantly using thematic rather than episodic framing. Application of the Health Belief Model to the content analysis revealed that benefits, self-efficacy, and cues to action were found in most news stories. Overall, given the relative lack of Chinese newspaper coverage, public health officials and health-care providers in China should assume most people, including those for whom HPV vaccination is recommended, have little or no knowledge about HPV, HPV vaccine, and the reasons for the vaccination recommendation. If news media are to be a source of HPV information for the Chinese public, significant efforts will be needed to increase attention. 相似文献

Objectives. Human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccines have been approved since 2006, yet vaccination rates remain low. We investigated HPV vaccination trends, interest, and reasons for nonvaccination in young adult women.Methods. We used data from the 2008–2012 National Health Interview Survey to analyze HPV vaccine uptake trends (≥ 1 dose) in women aged 18 to 26 years. We used data from the 2008 and 2010 National Health Interview Survey to examine HPV vaccination interest and reasons for nonvaccination among unvaccinated women.Results. We saw significant increases in HPV vaccination for all young women from 2008 to 2012 (11.6% to 34.1%); however, Hispanics and women with limited access to care continued to have lower vaccination rates. Logistic regression demonstrated lower vaccination interest among unvaccinated women in 2010 than 2008. Respondents in 2010 were significantly less likely to give lack of knowledge as a primary reason for nonvaccination.Conclusions. Uptake of HPV vaccine has increased from 2008 to 2012 in young women. Yet vaccination rates remain low, especially among women with limited access to care. However, unvaccinated women with limited health care access were more likely to be interested in receiving the vaccine.Human papillomavirus (HPV) is widespread among young females in the United States, with an estimated prevalence of 59.8% in women aged 20 to 24 years in 2007 to 2010.1 Persistent infection with high-risk strains of HPV has been linked to development of certain cancers, including cervical, oropharyngeal, and anal cancers, with an estimated 13.2 per 100 000 women diagnosed annually with HPV-associated cancers between 2004 and 2008.2 Since 2006, 2 HPV vaccines have been approved by the Food and Drug Administration that safely3 and effectively1 prevent infection with several high-risk HPV strains.2Since 2006, the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices has recommended that 3 doses of the HPV vaccine be administered to young females aged 11 to 26 years, with a focus on early vaccination.4,5 Data for 18- to 26-year-old women from the adult version of the 2007 National Immunization Survey estimated that 10% of young women had initiated the HPV vaccination series.6 For the same year, vaccine initiation among California women aged 18 to 27 years was estimated to be 11.0%.7 In 2011, vaccination rates (≥ 1 dose) among young women aged 19 to 26 years had increased to 29.5%.8 Vaccination rates for adolescents were more favorable (53.8% for ≥ 1 dose, 33.4% for ≥ 3 doses for 13- to 17-year-old adolescents in 20123), but are far from the national goal of 80% vaccination completion for 13- to 15-year-old adolescents by 2020.9Despite these low vaccine initiation and even lower completion rates, few studies have examined reasons for nonvaccination of young adult women, and no study has specifically studied how these reasons may have changed over time.6,10–13 A recent study focusing on parental attitudes showed an increase in parents not intending to vaccinate adolescent daughters and citing safety concerns as one of the main reasons for nonvaccination.14 Furthermore, previous studies of trends in HPV vaccination have focused primarily on adolescents.3,15,16 However, with high levels of nonvaccination continuing in 2011 for both the main target group and young adults, it is critical to understand trends in vaccination and risk factors for nonvaccination in this age group, as these young women can still benefit from receiving the HPV vaccine and promote greater herd immunity.Therefore, using nationally representative data from the National Health Interview Survey (NHIS) for young women, our aim was to (1) estimate trends in HPV vaccination uptake (≥ 1 dose) in women aged 18 to 26 years from 2008 to 2012, (2) examine HPV vaccination interest among young unvaccinated women in 2008 and 2010, and (3) investigate reasons for nonvaccination among women who were not interested in receiving the vaccine in 2008 and 2010. Both vaccination interest, defined as whether an unvaccinated woman was interested in receiving the HPV vaccine in the survey, and reasons for nonvaccination for unvaccinated women, who were not interested or undecided, were only assessed in the 2008 and 2010 NHIS. 相似文献

Background: There is concern over potential neurobehavioral effects of prenatal phthalate exposures, but available data are inconsistent.Objectives: We examined associations between prenatal urinary concentrations of phthalate metabolites and neurobehavioral scores among children.Methods: We measured phthalate metabolite concentrations in urine samples from 153 pregnant participants in the Study for Future Families, a multicenter cohort study. Mothers completed the Child Behavior Checklist when the children were 6–10 years of age. We estimated overall and sex-specific associations between phthalate concentrations and behavior using adjusted multiple regression interaction models.Results: In boys, concentrations of monoisobutyl phthalate were associated with higher scores for inattention (β = 0.27; 95% CI: 0.04, 0.50), rule-breaking behavior (β = 0.20; 95% CI: 0.01, 0.38), aggression (β = 0.34; 95% CI: 0.09, 0.59), and conduct problems (β = 0.39; 95% CI: 0.20, 0.58), whereas the molar sum of di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate metabolites was associated with higher scores for somatic problems (β = 0.15; 95% CI: 0.03, 0.28). Higher monobenzyl phthalate concentrations were associated with higher scores for oppositional behavior (β = 0.16; 95% CI: 0.01, 0.32) and conduct problems (β = 0.21; 95% CI: 0.06, 0.37) in boys, but with reduced anxiety scores in girls (β = –0.20; 95% CI: –0.39, –0.01). In general, the associations reported above were close to the null among girls. Model coefficients represent the difference in the square root–transformed outcome score associated with a 1-unit increase in log-transformed metabolites.Conclusions: Our results suggest associations between exposure to certain phthalates in late pregnancy and behavioral problems in boys. Given the few studies on this topic and methodological and population differences among studies, additional research is warranted.Citation: Kobrosly RW, Evans S, Miodovnik A, Barrett ES, Thurston SW, Calafat AM, Swan SH. 2014.

Objective To explore the emotional development and nutritional status of HIV/AIDS orphans by their infection status. Methods A community-based cross-sectional survey was conducted during January and December 2005 in four provinces and Bangkok Metropolis
where the prevalence of HIV/AIDS among pregnant women was high. The study population consisted of 388 HIV/AIDS orphans who
were maternal or paternal or double orphans aged 6–12 years old. The orphans’ main caregivers gave informed consent to the
project and assessed the emotional development of their orphaned children. The children were measured for weight, height,
and emotional development by standard instruments. They were divided into three groups regarding their HIV/AIDS infection
status reported by their caregivers: infected, non-infected, and unknown. The χ2 test was used to determine the association between nutritional status and infection status. Results Regarding HIV/AIDS infected children, 19.1% were infected, 57.5% were not infected, and 23.4% were unknown. The main caregivers
of all types of orphans were grandparents. Only 13.7% of infected orphans lived with their mothers. Most caregivers were females
and more than 40 years old. Infected orphans had mean scores of overall emotional development and for each domain less than
other groups. The mean scores of self-control and quick recovery were significantly different between infected and non-infected
groups (P-value < 0.05). Nearly 50% of infected orphans were rather short and approximately 42% were under weight and light. The findings
revealed a significant association between height for age, weight for age and infection status of orphans at a P-value of <0.001. Conclusions Orphanhood itself is a vulnerable status and HIV/AIDS infected orphans are most vulnerable. Acceptable and friendly services
for orphans and their families are crucial. The services should continue and protect stigmatization. 相似文献

BackgroundWe assessed the risk of spontaneous abortion (SA) after inadvertent exposure to HPV-16/18-vaccine during pregnancy using an observational cohort design.MethodsThe study population included women aged 15–25 years registered with the Clinical Practice Research Datalink General Practice OnLine Database in the United Kingdom (UK), who received at least one HPV-16/18-vaccine dose between 1st September 2008 and 30th June 2011. Exposed women had the first day of gestation between 30 days before and 45 days (90 days for the extended exposure period) after any HPV-16/18-vaccine dose. Non-exposed women had the first day of gestation 120 days–18 months after the last dose. SA defined as foetal loss between weeks 1 and 23 of gestation (UK definition).ResultsThe frequency of SA was 11.6% (among 207 exposed) and 9.0% (632 non-exposed), women: hazard ratio (HR) adjusted for age at first day of gestation 1.30 (95% confidence interval: 0.79–2.12). Sensitivity analysis per number of doses administered (−30 to +45-day risk period) showed a HR for SA of 1.11 (0.64–1.91) for 18/178 women with one dose during the risk period versus 2.55 (1.09–5.93) in 6/29 women with two doses within a 4–5 weeks period. The proportion of pre-term/full-term/postterm deliveries, small/large for gestational age infants, and birth defects was not significantly different between exposed and non-exposed women. Results were consistent using a (United States) SA definition of foetal loss between weeks 1–19 and/or the extended risk period.ConclusionThere was no evidence of an increased risk of SA and other adverse pregnancy outcomes in young women inadvertently HPV-16/18-vaccinated around gestation. Nevertheless, women who are pregnant or trying to become pregnant are advised to postpone vaccination until completion of pregnancy. 相似文献

This observer-blind study (clinicaltrials.gov NCT01462357) compared the immunogenicity and safety of two doses (2D) of the HPV-16/18 AS04-adjuvanted vaccine (2D of AS04-HPV-16/18) vs. two or three doses of the 4vHPV vaccine [2D or 3D of 4vHPV] in 1075 healthy girls aged 9–14 years. Girls were randomized (1:1:1) to receive 2D of AS04-HPV-16/18 at months (M) 0, 6 (N = 359), 2D of 4vHPV at M0, 6 (N = 358) or 3D of 4vHPV at M0, 2, 6 (N = 358). 351, 339 and 346 girls, respectively, returned for the concluding visit at M36. Superiority was demonstrated at M7 and M12; comparison of the immune response to both vaccine antigens was made between 2D of AS04-HPV-16/18 and 2D or 3D of 4vHPV at subsequent time points in the according-to-protocol immunogenicity cohort (ATP-I; N = 958 at M36) and the total vaccinated cohort (TVC: N = 1036 at M36). HPV-16/18-specific T-cell- and B-cell-mediated immune responses and safety were also investigated. At M36, anti-HPV-16/18 ELISA responses in the 2D AS04-HPV-16/18 group remained superior to those of the 2D and 3D 4vHPV groups. In the M36 TVC, geometric mean titers were 2.78-fold (HPV-16) and 6.84-fold (HPV-18) higher for 2D of AS04-HPV-16/18 vs. 2D of 4vHPV and 2.3-fold (HPV-16) and 4.14-fold (HPV-18) higher vs. 3D of 4vHPV. Results were confirmed by vaccine pseudovirion-based neutralisation assay. Numbers of circulating CD4+ T cells and B cells appeared similar across groups. Safety was in line with the known safety profiles of both vaccines. In conclusion, superior HPV-16/18 antibody responses were elicited by 2D of the AS04-HPV-16/18 compared with 2D or 3D of the 4vHPV vaccine in girls aged 9–14 years.Clinical Trial Registration: NCT0146235. 相似文献

PurposeThis article explores the ethics and feasibility of enrolling adolescent females in microbicide trials using data from 16- to 17-year-old participants of the Phase 3 trial of the candidate vaginal microbicide, Carraguard.MethodsSecondary analysis was conducted to compare health, behavioral, and operational outcomes between 16- to 17-year-olds and 18- to 19-year-olds screened for and enrolled in the trial. Analytical approaches included Kaplan–Meier survival analysis, Cox proportional hazards modeling, and generalized estimating equations for nonsurvival end points.ResultsResults reveal no significant differences between the two age groups for health (sexually transmitted infection, adverse event), risk behavior, or operational (adherence, follow-up) outcomes. However, data suggest that after 1 year of trial participation, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and pregnancy incidence were higher and increased more rapidly for the 16- to 17-year-olds than for 18- to 19-year-olds; this finding is entirely consistent with other incidence data for HIV infection among South African youth and cannot be attributed to study participation without a comparison outside the trial.ConclusionsData from the Carraguard trial provide no evidence that inclusion of 16- to 17-year-olds in the trial had any detrimental effect on trial participants or on the conduct of research. These data provide an argument motivating the inclusion of sexually active adolescents aged 16–17 years into future trials in order to avoid delaying access to an effective product for adolescents at high risk of HIV acquisition. Careful support for adolescent-inclusive protocols (including appropriate counseling) must be incorporated into study design. 相似文献

Objective: To describe the dietary patterns and examine the associations of these patterns with risk of overweight and obesity in Chinese adolescents.Methods: Baseline data collected between November 2003 and October 2004 from 171 boys and 180 girls aged 10–12 years who participated in the Hong Kong Adolescent Bone Health Cohort Study were analyzed. Dietary intake was assessed using a food frequency questionnaire and dietary pattern calculated using factor analysis. Data on demographic characteristics, weight, height, and Tanner stage were collected. Overweight and obesity were defined using The International Obesity Task Force cutoff values. Cardiovascular fitness expressed as peak oxygen consumption was predicted using the postexercise heart rate by the 3-minute step test and was used as an objective measure of physical activity. Association between dietary patterns and risk of overweight and obesity was examined using multivariate logistic regression with adjustment for demographics, puberty, and physical activity.Results: The mean (SD) age of the study sample was 11.2 (0.6) years and there were 57 (16.2%) participants who were overweight/obese. Three dietary patterns were identified, namely, vegetables–fruits, snacks–beverages, and animal foods, fats, and condiments dominated. There was no significant linear association between each dietary pattern and the risk of overweight and obesity in this sample. Instead, the risk of overweight and obesity in this sample was positively associated with pubertal stage and inversely associated with physical activity.Conclusions: Pubertal stage and physical activity, but not dietary patterns, were important factors contributing to the risk of overweight and obesity in this population. 相似文献

PurposePrevalence of past 30-day tobacco and marijuana use are highest among young adults in the U.S., and comorbid use of these products is common. However, it is unclear whether the use of one product precedes the other—an important consideration, given the new climate surrounding marijuana legalization and the popularity of e-cigarette products.MethodsSix-panel cross-lagged regression models, with 6 months between each panel/wave, were used to model bidirectional paths between past 30-day use and comorbid use of marijuana and tobacco products from 2014 to 2017 among young adults (N = 5,221 college students, aged 18–25 years).ResultsCombustible tobacco use and e-cigarette use were prospectively associated with greater risk of future marijuana use while controlling for the stability of use over time, age, race/ethnicity, and sex. Marijuana use was prospectively associated with greater risk of future combustible tobacco and e-cigarette use. Comorbid use was common, but while the odds of comorbid use decreased with increasing age, odds of tobacco use increased.ConclusionsMore young adults may be consolidating their use than are successfully ceasing their tobacco or marijuana use as they mature through young adulthood. Although we observed decreases in comorbid use of combustible tobacco with marijuana and e-cigarettes with marijuana, we simultaneously observed strong stability in single use of these products over time. Taken together, these results should help structure interventions specific to young adults that target use and comorbid use in early young adulthood to discourage initiation, encourage cessation, and curb subsequent escalation in later young adulthood. 相似文献

Using a new sequential analytic method, the safety of tetanus–diphtheria–acellular pertussis (Tdap) vaccine was monitored weekly among subjects aged 10–64 years during 2005–2008. Encephalopathy–encephalitis–meningitis, paralytic syndromes, seizures, cranial nerve disorders, and Guillain-Barré syndrome were selected as outcomes based on previous reports and biologic plausibility. The risk following Tdap was not significantly higher than the risk after Td. Statistical power was sufficient to detect a relative risk of 4–5 for Guillain-Barré syndrome and 1.5–2 for the other outcomes. This study provides reassurance that Tdap is similar in safety to Td regarding the outcomes studied and supports the viability of sequential analysis for post-licensure vaccine safety monitoring. 相似文献

Objective
We investigated whether and to what extent the uptake of the Human Papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine by girls aged 12-18 was related to the cervical cancer screening history of age-appropriate older female household members (assumed to be their mothers) in Flanders (Belgium).Methods
We studied administrative records on 127,854 female members of the National Alliance of Christian Mutualities, which is the largest health insurance fund in Flanders. Reimbursement data for HPV vaccination of girls for the period 2007-2009 were linked with reimbursement data for cervical cancer screening of their mothers in the three preceding years. A multilevel logit model was used to study associations between both preventive behaviors. In the model we controlled for both the girl's and the mother's age, the province of residence and the socio-economic background of the family.Results
A clear association between a mother's history of participation in cervical cancer screening and her daughter's HPV vaccination initiation was found. The conditional odds of HPV vaccination initiation were more than 4 times higher for girls whose mother had one Pap test than for girls whose mother had none (odds ratio [OR] = 4.5; 95% confidence interval [CI] = 3.5-5.9). For girls whose mother had three or more Pap tests, the conditional odds were 16 times higher than for girls whose mother did not have any pap tests ([OR] = 16.0; 95% [CI] = 12.1-21.2). The effect of screening (having received 1 pap smear as compared to none) was larger for girls living in neighborhoods with the lowest median income ([OR] = 6.0, 95% [CI] = 3.6-10.1).Conclusion
In a situation where both cervical cancer screening and HPV vaccination are opportunistic, we found evidence that these preventive behaviors cluster within families. 相似文献16.

BackgroundPertussis in adults and adolescents could be reduced by replacing traditional tetanus and diphtheria (Td) boosters with reduced-antigen-content diphtheria–tetanus–acellular pertussis (dTpa) vaccines. This study evaluated the administration of dTpa–IPV (dTpa–inactivated poliovirus) in adults ten years after they received a booster dose of either dTpa–IPV, dTpa+IPV or Td–IPV in trial NCT01277705.MethodsOpen multicentre, phase IV study (www.clinicaltrials.gov NCT01323959) in which healthy adults, who had received a previous dose of dTpa–IPV, dTpa+IPV or Td–IPV ten years earlier, received a single decennial booster dose of dTpa–IPV (Boostrix™-polio, GlaxoSmithKline Vaccines). Blood samples were collected before and one month after booster vaccination. Antibody concentrations against all vaccine antigens were measured and reactogenicity and safety were assessed.ResultsA total of 211 subjects (mean age 50.3 years) received vaccination of whom 201 were included in the according-to-protocol cohort for immunogenicity. Before the decennial dTpa–IPV booster, ≥71.0% subjects were seroprotected/seropositive against all vaccine antigens. One month after the booster dose, all subjects were seroprotected against tetanus and poliovirus types 2 and 3; ≥95.7% subjects were seroprotected against diphtheria and ≥98.3% against poliovirus type 1. Anti-pertussis booster responses for the various antigens were observed in ≥76.5% (pertussis toxoid; PT), ≥85.1% (filamentous haemagglutinin; FHA) and ≥63.2% (pertactin; PRN) of subjects. During the 4-day follow-up, the overall incidence of local AEs was 71.6%, 75.0% and 72.2% in dTpa–IPV, dTpa+IPV and Td–IPV groups, respectively. Pain was the most frequent solicited local adverse event (AE; ≥62.7% subjects) and fatigue the most frequent solicited general AE (≥18.5%). No serious AEs were reported during the study.ConclusionA booster dose of dTpa–IPV was immunogenic and well tolerated in adults who had received a booster dose of either dTpa–IPV, dTpa+IPV or Td–IPV, ten years previously and supports the repeated administration of dTpa–IPV. 相似文献

Background
Polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) are used as flame retardants in many products and have been detected in human samples worldwide. Limited data show that concentrations are elevated in young children.Objectives
We investigated the association between PBDEs and age with an emphasis on young children from Australia in 2006–2007.Methods
We collected human blood serum samples (n = 2,420), which we stratified by age and sex and pooled for analysis of PBDEs.Results
The sum of BDE-47, -99, -100, and -153 concentrations (∑4PBDE) increased from 0–0.5 years (mean ± SD, 14 ± 3.4 ng/g lipid) to peak at 2.6–3 years (51 ± 36 ng/g lipid; p < 0.001) and then decreased until 31–45 years (9.9 ± 1.6 ng/g lipid). We observed no further significant decrease among ages 31–45, 45–60 (p = 0.964), or > 60 years (p = 0.894). The mean ∑4PBDE concentration in cord blood (24 ± 14 ng/g lipid) did not differ significantly from that in adult serum at ages 15–30 (p = 0.198) or 31–45 years (p = 0.140). We found no temporal trend when we compared the present results with Australian PBDE data from 2002–2005. PBDE concentrations were higher in males than in females; however, this difference reached statistical significance only for BDE-153 (p = 0.05).Conclusions
The observed peak concentration at 2.6–3 years of age is later than the period when breast-feeding is typically ceased. This suggests that in addition to the exposure via human milk, young children have higher exposure to these chemicals and/or a lower capacity to eliminate them. 相似文献18.

Jump tests on a force plate measured lower-extremity muscle peak power/kg, velocity and force/kg at peak power, with normative values for 5-year age groups and by limitations in moderate-intensity activities of daily living (ADLs) and climbing several flights of stairs.Results
Jump completion was 68.9% (N=1,268/1,841) and 98% (1,242/1,268) had >1 analyzable trial/participant. Exclusions primarily were due to poor mobility and/or balance: 24.8% (456/1,841) prior to and 6.4% (N=117/1,841) after attempting testing. Peak power was 20.8±5.3 W/kg, with 1.2±0.3 m/s for velocity, and 16.7±1.9 N/kg for force at peak power. Each 5-year age group >80 years had subsequently 10% lower power/kg, with 30% lower power/kg at >90 vs. <80 years (all p<0.05). Velocity and force/kg at peak power were 24% and 9% lower respectively, at >90 vs. <80 years (all p<0.05). Limitations in both moderate ADLs and climbing several flights of stairs were associated with 16% lower age-adjusted power/kg, equivalent to 5–10 years of aging, with 11% and 6% lower age-adjusted velocity and force/ kg respectively, vs. those without limitation (all p<0.05). Men not completing vs. completing jumps had older age, higher BMI, lower physical activity, more comorbidities, worse cognition, more IADLs/ADLs and more falls in the past year (all p<0.05). Post-jump pain occurred in 4.6% (58/1,268), with 2 participants stopping testing due to pain. Only 24/1,242 (2%) had all trials/participant without flight (i.e., inability to lift feet), with 323/1,242 having ≥1 trial/participant without flight (total of 28%). No serious adverse safety events (e.g., injury) occurred.Conclusions
A multicenter cohort of oldest men with a range of function had higher declines in jump power/kg and velocity vs. force/kg across each 5-year age group >80 years. Future research should examine age- and functional-related declines in jump measures related to physical performance decline, falls, fractures, and disability.19.

Background
Exposure to perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) may potentially disturb fetal Leydig cell hormone production and male genital development.Objectives
We aimed to study the associations between levels of amniotic fluid PFOS, fetal steroid hormone, and insulin-like factor 3 (INSL3) and the prevalence of cryptorchidism and hypospadias.Methods
Using the Danish National Patient Registry, we selected 270 cryptorchidism cases, 75 hypospadias cases, and 300 controls with stored maternal amniotic fluid samples available in a Danish pregnancy-screening biobank (1980–1996). We used mass spectrometry to measure PFOS in amniotic fluid from 645 persons and steroid hormones in samples from 545 persons. INSL3 was measured by immunoassay from 475 persons. Associations between PFOS concentration in amniotic fluid, hormone levels, and genital malformations were assessed by confounder-adjusted linear and logistic regression.Results
The highest tertile of PFOS exposure (> 1.4 ng/mL) in amniotic fluid was associated with a 40% (95% CI: –69, –11%) lower INSL3 level and an 18% (95% CI: 7, 29%) higher testosterone level compared with the lowest tertile (< 0.8 ng/mL). Amniotic fluid PFOS concentration was not associated with cryptorchidism or hypospadias.Conclusions
Environmental PFOS exposure was associated with steroid hormone and INSL3 concentrations in amniotic fluid, but was not associated with cryptorchidism or hypospadias in our study population. Additional studies are needed to determine whether associations with fetal hormone levels may have long-term implications for reproductive health.Citation

ABSTRACT The average age of United States farmers has been increasing for 20 years. The objective is to examine the factors associated with hours worked among farmers age 50 and older. A cohort of Kentucky and South Carolina farmers (n?=?1394) over age 50 were surveyed annually during 2002–2005. Of those that reported any farm work, males worked 24 mean hours/week and females worked 14 mean hours/week. Greater satisfaction and more experience farming, increased acreage, and presence of animals significantly increased estimated hours farmed, whereas chronic health problems, although prevalent, had a minor role in determining work hours. 相似文献
