Self-control during childhood and mental health at age 15–16: a longitudinal population-based study Open
Low self-control in adults is associated with a broad range of negative outcomes. However, studies on the long-term impact of low self-control on mental health outcomes in youth are limited. We examined associations between low self-contro…

Longitudinal changes in late-life brain health after prenatal exposure to the Dutch famine Open
Our results support prenatal famine exposure affecting brain structure and perfusion across the lifespan. The absence of group differences in rate of change over time supports a hypothesis of persistent developmental effects rather than ac…

Bidirectional associations of problematic social media use and problematic gaming with mental health difficulties and strengths in adolescents: Sex and social support as potential moderators Open
The evidence on the direction of associations between mental health and problematic social media use (PSMU) and problematic gaming (PG) in adolescents remains inconclusive. Therefore, this study investigated a comprehensive model of tempor…

Rodent models of Alzheimer's disease: Critical analysis of current hypotheses and pathways for future research Open
Alzheimer's disease (AD) was first described over a century ago. However, the mechanisms underlying the disease are not well understood to this day. This has negatively impacted our ability to create animal models to design and test target…

Prenatal famine exposure and late-life functional brain network connectivity: A longitudinal study Open
The effects of the prenatal environment on resting-state functional connectivity in the brain can be detected up into older adulthood. We previously identified differences in resting-state functional connectivity of the default mode networ…

Psychosocial Problems at Preschool Age and Cardiometabolic Health Profile at Preadolescence Open
Objective Evidence suggests that children with psychosocial problems face a higher risk of cardiometabolic diseases in adulthood. However, this may already be evident prior to adulthood. In this study, the associations between psychosocial…

Maternal stress in the early postpartum period is associated with alterations in human milk microbiome composition Open
This study demonstrates stress-associated alterations in the early HM microbiome that could potentially contribute to early gut colonization and subsequent (mental)health outcomes. Future research is needed to elucidate the physiological s…

On the edge of the social media landscape: associations with adolescent substance use and moderation by parental rules Open
Background Adolescent problematic social media use (PSMU) has been increasing. Digital engagement has been associated with substance use, but little is known about the potential protective role of parents. We investigated whether screen an…

Examining associations of air pollution and green space with depressive symptoms in adults: A LongITools cross-cohort analysis Open
Air pollution in the form of particulate matter as well as green space were associated with depressive symptoms across multiple cohorts. In the majority of cohorts, depressive symptoms increased with age, but we found little evidence that …

Women exposed to famine in early gestation have increased mortality up to age 76 years Open
Background We have previously shown that exposure to famine in early gestation was associated with poorer adult health and, in women, with reduced survival up to age 64. Objectives Here, we explore the association between prenatal famine e…
