This study aimed to quantify the years of lung function lost according to disadvantaged socioeconomic conditions across the life-course. Methods This multicohort study used harmonised individual-level data from six European cohorts with information on life-course socioeconomic disadvantage and lung f...
Patterning of educational attainment across inflammatory markers: Findings from...
Maurel, M; Castagné, R; Berger, E; Bochud, M; Chadeau-Hyam, M; Fraga, S; Gandini, M; Hutri-Kähönen, N; Jalkanen, S; Kivimäki, M; Marmot, M; McCrory, CBackground. Evidence suggests that the inflammatory reaction, an adaptive response triggered by a variety of harmful stimuli and conditions involved in the risk and development of many chronic diseases, is a potential pathway through which the socioeconomic environment is biologically embedded. Difficulty in interpreting the role of the inflammatory system in the embodiment dynamic arises because of heterogenei...
The contribution of sleep to social inequalities in cardiovascular disorders: a...
Petrovic, D; Haba-Rubio, J; de Mestral, Vargas, C; Kelly-Irving, M; Vineis, P; Kivimäki, M; Nyberg, S; Gandini, M; Bochud, M; Vollenweider, PAims: Sleep disturbances exhibit a strong social patterning, and inadequate sleep has been associated with adverse health outcomes, including cardiovascular disorders (CVD). However, the contribution of sleep to socioeconomic inequalities in CVD is unclear. This study pools data from eight European cohorts to investigate the role of sleep duration in the association between life-course socioeconomic status (SES...

Design Multi-cohort population based study. Setting 37 cohort studies from 24 countries in Europe, the United States, Latin America, Africa, and Asia, 1990-2017 P...
Socioeconomic differences in children’s growth trajectories from infancy to ear...
McCrory, C; O'Leary, N; Fraga, S; Ribeiro, AI; Barros, H; Kartiosuo, N; Raitakari, O; Kivimäki, M; Vineis, P; Layte, RBackground Height is regarded as a marker of early-life illness, adversity, nutrition and psychosocial stress, but the extent to which differences in height are determined by early-life socioeconomic circumstances, particularly in contemporary populations, is unclear. This study examined socioeconomic differences in children’s height trajectories from birth through to 21 years of age in four European countries....
