Abstract Responsible for ~18 million global deaths annually, cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a prominent cause of morbidity and mortality that negatively affects population health well-being. Despite increased knowledge advancements in medicine, technology, an array initiatives to slow the prevalence CVD across world recent decades, future projections wider societal economic impacts are alarming. It outlined this review little progress being made against series landmark that, postpandemic world, we might need consider innovative approaches tackle unprecedented growth prevalence. To address sustained reductions positive behaviors which coupled with established rise risk factors events following infections severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2, there urgent public challenge lies ahead. Accordingly, must establish bespoke systems can recognize complexity interactive interdisciplinary nature chronic diseases. Future heed learning from many previous unsuccessful have not been appropriately monitored or evaluated. Establishing aligning international collaborative clear mandate oversee development implementation analysis surveillance interventions needed spiraling prevalence, healthcare costs, morbidity, mortality.

Since the start of COVID-19 pandemic in early 2020, governments around world have adopted an array measures intended to control transmission SARS-CoV-2 virus, using both pharmaceutical and non-pharmaceutical interventions (NPIs). NPIs are public health that do not rely on vaccines or medicines include policies such as lockdowns, stay-at-home orders, school closures, travel restrictions. Although intention was slow viral transmission, emerging research indicates these also had unintended consequences for other aspects health. Hence, we conducted a narrative review studies investigating NPIs, with particular emphasis mental lifestyle risk factors non-communicable diseases (NCD): physical activity (PA), overweight obesity, alcohol consumption, tobacco smoking. We reviewed scientific literature combinations search terms ‘COVID-19′, ‘pandemic’, ‘lockdowns’, ‘mental health’, ‘physical activity’, ‘obesity’. were found considerable adverse health, activity, obesity. The impacts consumption varied greatly within between studies. variability different groups implies increased inequalities by age, sex/gender, socioeconomic status, pre-existing lifestyle, place residence. In conclusion, proper assessment use attempts spread should be weighed against potential Our findings relevance future preparedness response teams.

Abstract Understanding the correlation between demographic, socio-economic, and lifestyle factors with e-cigarette use, cigarette smoking, dual use is essential for targeted public health interventions. This study examines prevalence of these behaviors in Scotland identifies associated factors. We conducted a repeated cross-sectional analysis Scottish Health Survey data from 2017 to 2021, leveraging 12,644 participants aged 16 older: 2271 smokers, 687 users, 428 9258 never users. Weighted prevalences were calculated by age group, sex, survey year, followed weighted multinomial logistic regression explore The overall 72.0% (95% CI 70.9–73.1) 18.9% 17.9–19.9) 5.5% 5.0–6.1) 3.6% 3.2–4.0) From smoking declined 21.7% 19.6–23.9) 13.1% 11.5–15.0), 6.5% 5.4–7.8) 4.8% 3.6–6.4), 3.7% 2.9–4.6) 2.7% 1.9–3.7).

Abstract Objectives Herein, we investigate the relationships between COVID‐19 pandemic and overcoming virus, its effects on body composition parameters in young adults from Slovakia. Methods We assessed 773 aged 18 to 30 years pandemic‐status sub‐groups. Individual lifestyles were evaluated by a detailed questionnaire, analyzed using InBody 770 bioimpedance analyzer. Results Statistically significant lower values observed male group during for following parameters; proteins minerals, fat free mass (FFM), skeletal muscle (SMM), lean (LBM) right left arm trunk, total water (TBW) cell (BCM), basal metabolic rate (BMR) phase angle (PA). The regression analysis confirmed negative effect impact of men parameters: ( p = .027 .005 COVID‐19), FFM .023 LBM .022 .004 SMM .028 TBW .020 BMR .024 COVID‐19) PA .009 pandemic). Physical activity was further predictor all above parameters. Conclusions significantly associated with adult than before it. However, future research is warranted determine if these have long‐term significance.
