Abstract BackgroundTo estimate Population Attributable Fractions (PAFs) and Generalized Impact Fractions (GIFs) for LBW following scenarios to remove or decrease prenatal use of caffeine or water pipe.Methods‎Using data of 861 pregnant women from a population-based prospective cohort study ‎in suburbs of Bandar Abbas city (2016-2018), PAFs and GIFs were calculated based on the relative risk scale. Practical interventional scenarios to reduce the exposure prevalence were developed for calculation of GIFs. ResultsThe cumulative incidence of LBW was 16.1%. An estimated 19% (95%CI: 6, 30%) of LBW neonates was attributed to dietary caffeine intake of >100 mg/day and 11% (95%CI: 8,14%) to water pipe smoking. Action plans to reduce caffeine intake and water pipe smoking suggested an avoidable burden of LBW cases of approximately 10.7% (95% CI: 6.6, 25.3%) and 5.7% ‎‎(95%CI: ‎5.0, 6.8%), respectively.‎ConclusionsWater pipe smoking and excessive consumption of caffeine during pregnancy decreased birth weight. Practical action plans to control water pipe smoking ‎and to prevent excessive intake of ‎caffeine ‎among pregnant women would substantially reduce LBW burden in the south of Iran. ‎

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in Canada. CRC screening and other factors associated with early-stage disease can improve CRC treatment efficacy and survival. This study examined factors associated with CRC stage at diagnosis among male and female adults using data from a large prospective cohort study in Alberta, Canada. Baseline data were obtained from healthy adults aged 35–69 years participating in Alberta’s Tomorrow Project. Factors associated with CRC stage at diagnosis were evaluated using Partial Proportional Odds models. Analyses were stratified to examine sex-specific associations. A total of 267 participants (128 males and 139 females) developed CRC over the study period. Among participants, 43.0% of males and 43.2% of females were diagnosed with late-stage CRC. Social support, having children, and caffeine intake were predictors of CRC stage at diagnosis among males, while family history of CRC, pregnancy, hysterectomy, menopausal hormone therapy, lifetime number of Pap tests, and household physical activity were predictive of CRC stage at diagnosis among females. These findings highlight the importance of sex differences in susceptibility to advanced CRC diagnosis and can help inform targets for cancer prevention programs to effectively reduce advanced CRC and thus improve survival.
