Sex Difference in Effects of Low-Dose Aspirin on Prevention of Dementia in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes: A Long-term Follow-up Study of a Randomized Clinical Trial

OBJECTIVE

To evaluate and compare the efficacy of long-term use of low-dose aspirin for the prevention of dementia in men and women.

RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS

This study is a follow-up cohort study of the Japanese Primary Prevention of Atherosclerosis With Aspirin for Diabetes (JPAD) trial, which was a randomized, open-label, standard care–controlled trial examining the effects of low-dose aspirin on cardiovascular events. We followed up 2,536 Japanese patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) enrolled in the JPAD trial from 2002 to 2017. The primary outcome of this post hoc analysis was the incidence of dementia, which was defined by the prescription of antidementia drugs or admission due to dementia.

RESULTS

Among the originally enrolled patients, 2,121 (84%) retained their original allocation. During a median follow-up of 11.4 years, 128 patients developed dementia. The overall effect of low-dose aspirin on the prevention of dementia adjusted for age, sex, and other established risk factors was not significant (hazard ratio [HR] 0.82, 95% CI 0.58–1.16). However, a significant reduction was seen in the risk of dementia in women (HR 0.58, 95% CI 0.36–0.95), but not in men (HR 1.27, 95% CI 0.75–2.13) (Pinteraction = 0.03).

CONCLUSIONS

Long-term use of low-dose aspirin may reduce the risk for dementia in women with T2D.

Primary and Secondary Prevention of Youth Suicide

Youth suicide is a national and global public health crisis. Pediatricians can use primary and secondary prevention strategies to intervene with youth before or after the onset of suicidal behaviors. Universal suicide risk screening programs can be used to identify youth in medical settings who may otherwise pass through the health care setting with undetected suicide risk. Pediatricians are uniquely positioned to help foster resilience in their young patients and equip families of at-risk youth with safety plans and lethal means safety counseling. Pediatricians on the frontlines of this critical public health crisis require education and training in detecting suicide risk, managing those who screen positive, and connecting their patients to much needed mental health interventions and treatments. Evidence-based suicide risk screening and assessment tools, paired with interventions, are feasible and potentially life-saving in the medical setting.

Early Childhood Family Intervention and Long-term Obesity Prevention Among High-risk Minority Youth

The evidence base for obesity prevention is extremely limited. Although minority youth are at higher risk of obesity, and early childhood is a critical period for prevention, only 1 program has demonstrated sustained effects on obesity in young minority children.

Among youth at high risk for obesity based on income, minority status, and child behavior problems, early intervention that promotes effective parenting led to meaningful differences in obesity in preadolescence. Early family intervention is an innovative and promising approach. (Read the full article)

The National Perinatal Hepatitis B Prevention Program, 1994-2008

Infants born to women who are hepatitis B surface antigen–positive have a 90% risk of chronic hepatitis B virus infection, which may cause premature death from liver failure or cancer. Postexposure prophylaxis in infancy prevents 85% to 95% of perinatal infections.

The Perinatal Hepatitis B Prevention Program was created to identify and manage infants born to women who are hepatitis B surface antigen–positive. We provide, for the first time since 1996, national-level data on the outcomes of the Perinatal Hepatitis B Prevention Program. (Read the full article)

Factors Associated With Uptake of Infant Male Circumcision for HIV Prevention in Western Kenya

Male circumcision reduces risk of HIV acquisition in men by 60% and is associated with other health benefits. Compared with adult circumcision, infant male circumcision is safer, less expensive, and represents a cost-saving intervention for HIV prevention in many settings.

IMC is little known in East Africa and is not routinely practiced. This is the first study to assess acceptability and uptake of IMC in East Africa among parents who were actually offered the procedure. (Read the full article)

Attributable Risks for Childhood Overweight: Evidence for Limited Effectiveness of Prevention

Childhood obesity is a public health concern. Although determinants of childhood overweight have been identified and their effect sizes have been calculated, prevention as well as treatment have had limited success.

We have calculated the population-based relevance of determinants of childhood overweight by using attributable risks, which can be interpreted as maximum success rates of preventive measures. New concepts were applied to estimate the relative contribution of each risk factor. (Read the full article)

Prevention of Invasive Cronobacter Infections in Young Infants Fed Powdered Infant Formulas

Invasive Cronobacter infection is a rare but devastating disease known to affect hospitalized premature or immunocompromised infants fed powdered infant formulas (PIFs). PIF labels imply that powdered formulas are safe for healthy, term infants if the label instructions are followed.

Cronobacter can also infect healthy, term infants in the first months of life, even if PIF label instructions are followed. Invasive Cronobacter infection is extremely rare in exclusively breastfed infants or those fed commercially sterile, ready-to-feed formulas. (Read the full article)
