Or BMI or whatever weight variable that you want later in time
或身體質(zhì)量指數(shù)的變化 或體重的變化
However, there was a recent meta-analysis
但是 最近通過(guò)元分析
You know, compendium of the available studies
對(duì)已有的研究成果進(jìn)行總結(jié)
giving us an effective size of how strong the relationship
我們對(duì)壓力和肥胖之間聯(lián)系進(jìn)行了具體量化
It done by Andrew Steptoe's group
這項(xiàng)工作是由
At the University of College London
倫敦大學(xué)學(xué)院的安德魯斯特托團(tuán)隊(duì)完成的
And what they did is that they found 32 studies
他們找到了32項(xiàng)研究成果
13 of which had follow-up of over three years
其中13項(xiàng)有3年的后續(xù)研究
And looked specifically the job stress and the general life stress
主要關(guān)注的是工作壓力和一般性的生活壓力
With the outcomes being kind of the ones you would expect
其測(cè)試結(jié)果大家都比較熟悉
In epidemiological samples
也就是流行病樣本調(diào)查
So BMI, waist-to-hip ratio, weight, and waist circumference
例如BMI 腰臀比 體重 腰圍等
I think one important fact about this
我認(rèn)為有一點(diǎn)非常重要
Was this is these outcomes weren't self-report
也就是這不是自述調(diào)查
They were actually done in the clinic
試驗(yàn)是在診所進(jìn)行的
So we know there are roughly valid outcome measures
所以這些測(cè)量數(shù)據(jù)都比較有效
But the result was somewhat surprising
但結(jié)果令人感到吃驚
So there was increasing effects
壓力促進(jìn)肥胖的結(jié)果
So meaning that stress predicted
也就是說(shuō)在8項(xiàng)研究中
An increase in weight in 8 studies
壓力導(dǎo)致了體重增加
And null effect in 22 studies
在22項(xiàng)研究中 壓力沒(méi)有導(dǎo)致體重增加
And decreasing effect in 2 of the other studies
而還有2項(xiàng)研究 壓力反而導(dǎo)致體重減少
But when taking in total
但總體上來(lái)講
There did seem to be an overall modest relationship
壓力和日后的體重之間
Between stress and later weight
確實(shí)存在些許關(guān)系
With the author saying that
研究者最后這樣寫道
"psychosocial stress is positively related
在前瞻性研究中
To the development of adiposity in prospective studies
心理壓力和肥胖癥的發(fā)展是存在正向聯(lián)系的
Although the effects were modest and smaller
盡管和大眾常識(shí)相比
Than assumed in the lay literature."
兩者的聯(lián)系顯得微小而不夠顯著
So there does seem to be an empirical relationship
所以兩者的聯(lián)系確實(shí)得到了實(shí)證研究的支持
But it's not an overwhelming one
但聯(lián)系并不是特別的顯著
I did want to bring up one study
我還想給大家介紹一項(xiàng)研究
