<h3>Background</h3>Regular physical activity is recommended for all aged 5 years and older, but the health benefits gained might differ across population subgroups. The aim of this study was to examine these benefits in terms of years lived free from major non-communicable diseases in subgroups with varying levels of risk factors.<h3>Methods</h3>Our analysis was based on a multicohort study of initially healthy European adults from the IPD-Work Consortium and initially healthy participants from the UK Biobank study. Self-reported leisure-time physical activity levels at baseline (1986–2010) were categorised as low (no or very little), intermediate (between low and recommended levels), and WHO-recommended (≥2·5 h of moderate or ≥1·25 h of vigorous physical activity per week). We divided the study population into 36 overlapping subgroups based on socioeconomic factors, lifestyle, and mental health at baseline, and assessed disease-free years between ages 40 years and 75 years for both the overall population and subgroups, accounting for coronary heart disease, stroke, type 2 diabetes, cancer, asthma, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.<h3>Findings</h3>14 IPD-Work studies were assessed and six studies were excluded due to missing outcome data and unavailable data for pooling, resulting in the inclusion of eight studies with 124 909 participants. After the exclusion of 7685 participants due to prevalent diseases and 9265 due to missing data, the sample consisted of 107 959 initially healthy European adults (63 567 [58·9%] females and 44 392 [41·1%] males) from the IPD-Work consortium. For the UK Biobank sample, 9 238 453 million individuals were invited, 8 736 094 (94·6%) were non-respondents, and 502 359 participated in the baseline examination. After the exclusion of 73 460 participants, 428 899 participants had data on at least one measure of physical activity. 236 258 (55·1%) were female and 192 641 (44·9%) were male. During 1·6 million person-years at risk, 21 231 IPD-Work participants developed a non-communicable disease, while 101 319 UK Biobank participants developed a non-communicable disease over 4·8 million person-years at risk. Compared with individuals with low physical activity, those meeting the recommended physical activity levels during leisure-time gained an additional 1·1 (95% CI 1·0–1·2) to 2·0 (1·7–2·3) disease-free years, depending on sex and study. In males from the IPD-Work and UK Biobank cohorts, greater gains in disease-free years were observed in current smokers (2·4 [95% CI 2·1–2·8]) versus never smokers (0·7 [0·5–0·9]); those with low education (1·4 [1·1–1·7]) versus high education (0·8 [0·7–1·0]); low socioeconomic status (1·7 [1·5–2·0]) versus high socioeconomic status (0·9 [0·7–1·1]); and those with (1·6 [1·3–1·9]) versus without depressive symptoms (1·0 [0·9–1·1]; p value range <0·0001–0·0008).

Exposure to adverse childhood experiences (ACEs), including abuse, neglect, and household challenges, have harmful implications for long-term health and mental health outcomes.1 Indeed, ACEs are one of the leading determinants of mental health disorders and are associated with increased health-care use into adulthood.1, 2 ACEs have the potential to infiltrate the family context, having implications for individual children and siblings. Yet, research on ACEs to date has largely focused on the outcomes of individuals rather than taking a family-based approach.

Regular physical activity is associated with a lower risk of cardiovascular disease and cancer, and with longevity.1 Studies on physical activity and health have initially been based on observational studies with small sample sizes.2 Nowadays, the study quality has improved and includes laboratory-based studies with controlled interventions, albeit with limited external validity, as well as longitudinal studies with hard outcomes such as cardiovascular morbidity. Global recommendations for regular physical activity have been developed based on self-reported exercise levels. Such recommendations typically include the same advice for everyone (ie, 150 min per week of moderate intensity exercise).3

<h3>Background</h3>Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) often affect multiple children within families, yet studies tend to focus on the health outcomes of individual children, underestimating the needs of affected families. We aimed to examine the association between firstborns exposed to ACEs between 1 year before and 2 years after birth (the first 1000 days) and the risks of mental health problems, mental health-related health-care contacts, and all-cause hospital admissions in multiple children from the same mother, compared to firstborns without ACEs.<h3>Methods</h3>We derived a population-based birth cohort in England using linked electronic health records for first-time mothers (aged 14–55 years) with their children (born 2002–18). We followed up the cohort from 1 year before birth up to 18 years after birth across the Clinical Practice Research Datalink GOLD and Aurum databases (primary care), Hospital Episode Statistics (secondary care), and the Office of National Statistics (death registrations) between April 1, 2001, and March 31, 2020. We included six different ACE domains, including child maltreatment, intimate partner violence, maternal substance misuse, maternal mental health problems, adverse family environments, and high-risk presentations of child maltreatment, in the records of the mother or the firstborn in the first 1000 days. The primary outcome was the number of children (aged 5–18 years) with recorded mental health problems per mother. We used adjusted and weighted negative binomial regression models to estimate incidence rate ratios.<h3>Findings</h3>Of 333 048 firstborns and their mothers, 123 573 (37·1%) had any ACEs between 1 year before and 2 years after birth, and 65 941 (19·8%) of all mothers had at least one child with a mental health problem between ages 5 years and 18 years (median follow-up 11·4 years [IQR 9·2–14·1]). Mothers with firstborns with ACEs had 1·71 (95% CI 1·68–1·73) times as many children in total with mental health problems (mean 29·8 children per 100 mothers, 29·4–30·1) compared with mothers without firstborns with ACEs (mean 17·4 children per 100 mothers, 17·3–17·6), translating into a mean difference of 12·3 (95% CI 11·9–12·7) additional children with mental health problems per 100 mothers. These mothers also had increased incidence rates of children with all-cause emergency admissions and mental health-related contacts. There was no significant difference in the risk of mental health problems between firstborn and later-born children.<h3>Interpretation</h3>ACEs in firstborns during the first 1000 days were associated with increased mental health problems and health-care needs in multiple children in the same family. The findings highlight the importance of early identification of vulnerable first-time parents and firstborns and increased policy focus on sustained support beyond the first 1000 days to promote healthier long-term family outcomes.

<h3>Background</h3>Personalised risk-based screening (PRBS) can enhance the efficiency of cancer screening programnes, but little is known about support for its implementation among the general public and health-care professionals. We aimed to summarise the acceptability and perceptions of PRBS for breast, cervical, colorectal, lung, and prostate cancer screening among these groups.<h3>Methods</h3>We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of original research studies reporting on breast, cervical, colorectal, lung, and prostate cancer screening; personalised risk assessments to guide PRBS; and the acceptability of and receptibility towards these approaches among the general public, health-care professionals, or both. We searched MEDLINE, Embase, Cochrane Central, PsycINFO, and CINAHL Plus for articles published between Jan 1, 2010, and April 30, 2024. Studies not reporting on the outcomes of interest and with insufficient data for analysis were excluded. Six reviewers independently screened articles, and risk of bias was assessed using the Mixed Methods Appraisal Tool. Qualitative data were analysed thematically. Quantitative data were analysed with use of random-effects meta-analysis for outcomes that had at least two studies. The study protocol was registered at PROSPERO, CRD42022354287.<h3>Findings</h3>Our search identified 4491 unique records. After screening, 63 studies were included in our analysis, of which 36 (57%) included the general public, 21 (33%) included health-care professionals, and six (11%) included both. The majority of studies focused on breast cancer screening (43 [68%] studies), and were from North America (28 [44%]) and Europe (28 [44%]). Qualitative findings were analysed thematically, and the extracted quantitative findings were synthesised under the following topics: acceptability and perceptions of personalised risk assessments among the general public; acceptability and perceptions of PRBS among the general public; acceptability and perceptions of PRBS among health-care professionals; and barriers and facilitators to PRBS implementation among health-care professionals. The general public and health-care professionals generally found PRBS acceptable, but they needed more information about how risk was calculated and the accuracy of risk scores. Additionally, both groups were cautious about reducing screening frequencies for individuals at low risk and cited barriers such as the time and resources needed to implement an effective PRBS programme. The pooled estimate for acceptability of PRBS was 78% (95% CI 66–88) among the general public and 86% (64–99) among health-care professionals.<h3>Interpretation</h3>The general public and health-care professionals both viewed personalised risk assessments as providing valuable information and PRBS as a logical next step to increase the quality of patient care and improve cancer mortality.

Cannabis consumption is legally prohibited in most countries in the world. Several countries are legalising cannabis for adult consumption. It is important to monitor the public health effects of these policy changes. In this paper, we summarise the evidence to date on the legalisation of adult non-medical cannabis use in Canada and the USA. We describe regulatory models for cannabis legalisation, changes in cannabis products and pricing, effects on the illicit cannabis market, changes in cannabis use, and changes in cannabis-related physical and mental health harms. We discuss the challenges in assessing the effects of cannabis legalisation on public health outcomes and emphasise the importance of continuous and rigorous monitoring of adverse health effects to inform the design of public health policies and regulations.

We discuss the challenges in assessing the effects of cannabis legalisation on public health outcomes and emphasise the importance of continuous and rigorous monitoring of adverse health effects to inform the design of public health policies and regulations.","PeriodicalId":56027,"journal":{"name":"Lancet Public Health","volume":"12 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":50.0,"publicationDate":"2025-02-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143083490","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Feb 4 marks World Cancer Day—an opportunity to raise awareness about cancer and to reflect on the latest trends, challenges, and hopes. Acknowledging that cancer is not simply a medical diagnosis, but rather a unique personal story, the World Cancer Day campaign places people at the centre and calls for a people-centred approach to cancer.
