Diet quality was measured by the Australian Recommended Food Score (ARFS) using data derived from a validated food frequency questionnaire. Multiple linear regressions were used to evaluate relationships between change in diet quality and weight in mid-age women (n = 1999). Women in the highest tertile of ARFS change improved diet quality [mean ± SD] [7 ± 4 points], while those in the lowest [-9 ±5 points] and middle [-1±2 points] tertiles had worse diet quality at follow-up. Overall, mean weight gain was 2.3 ± 7.2 kg over nine years. Those in the highest tertile of ARFS change gained significantly less weight, compared to the lowest tertile; ß = -1.2 kg [95% CI: -2.31, -0.11; p = 0.03] after adjustment for changes in confounders and baseline weight, baseline ARFS, and total energy intake. Conclusions: Improving diet quality could be an important strategy for promoting modest weight loss and potentially contribute to preventing weight gain in mid-age women, which is important for metabolic health.]]> Thu 15 Apr 2021 11:40:59 AEST ]]> Identification of diabetes, heart disease, hypertension and stroke in mid- and older-aged women: comparing self-report and administrative hospital data records https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:23856 Thu 13 Jan 2022 10:30:40 AEDT ]]> Trends in overweight and obesity in pre-school children in urban areas of Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, from 2002 to 2005 https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:7758 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:41:51 AEDT ]]> Factors associated with physical inactivity in adolescents in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:8259 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:40:36 AEDT ]]> Older Australian women's use of dentists: a longitudinal analysis over 6 years https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:9585 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:39:11 AEDT ]]> The relationship between psychiatric illnesses and skin disease: a longitudinal analysis of young Australian women https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:8324 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:36:55 AEDT ]]> Experiences of occupational violence in Australian urban general practice: a cross-sectional study of GPs https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:846 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:31:28 AEDT ]]> A longitudinal analysis of mid-age women's use of complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) in Australia 1996-1998 https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:1530 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:30:51 AEDT ]]> Antioxidant restriction and oxidative stress in short-duration exhaustive exercise https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:1656 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:30:28 AEDT ]]> The profile of women who use complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) in Australia https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:1789 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:27:30 AEDT ]]> Factors associated with adolescent overweight/obesity in Ho Chi Minh City https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:10604 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:13:50 AEDT ]]> Dietary habits and overweight/obesity in adolescents in Xi'an City, China https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:10280 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:09:09 AEDT ]]> Purpose and pleasure in late life: conceptualising older women's participation in art and craft activities https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:17452 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:04:03 AEDT ]]> Painting pictures and playing musical instruments: change in participation and relationship to health in older women https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:21173 P = 0.004) and role limitations due to emotional factors (OR 1.6, 95% CI 1.0–2.5; P = 0.002) were associated with starting participation.

Main outcome measure: Women were asked if they had sought help for back pain in the previous twelve months. Results: The prevalence of back pain was 54.8% (n = 5383). The percentage of women who sought help for their back pain was 17.3% (n = 1700). Of the women who sought help for back pain, 2% consulted with a CAM practitioner only, 35% consulted a conventional practitioner only and 63% with both a conventional and CAM practitioner. Conclusions: Back pain is prevalent amongst mid-age Australian women, although only one third sought help. Women who sought help for their back pack were high users of CAM (practitioners and self-prescribed) and conventional care providers, consulting a CAM practitioner in complement with conventional biomedical consultations rather than as an alternative. Further research is needed to explore the complex contemporary landscapes of back pain negotiation and management.]]> Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:29:17 AEDT ]]> Living with urinary incontinence: a longitudinal study of older women https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:3819 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:22:45 AEDT ]]>
