Abstract Objective To update the projected prevalence of self‐reported, doctor‐diagnosed arthritis and arthritis‐attributable activity limitations among US adults ages 18 years older from 2005 through 2030. Methods Baseline age‐ sex‐specific rates limitation, using latest surveillance case definitions, were estimated 2003 National Health Interview Survey, which is an annual, cross‐sectional, population‐based health interview survey ∼31,000 adults. These estimates used to calculate for...
Abstract Objective To estimate the US prevalence and psychological health behavior correlates of low back pain and/or neck pain. No current national estimates exist few studies have investigated associations between pain, factors, behaviors in a representative sample community dwellers. Methods We analyzed data obtained from adults ages 18 years or older (n = 29,828) who participated 2002 National Health Interview Survey, cross‐sectional, population‐based survey adults. Results The 3‐month...
This study describes the types and frequencies of musculoskeletal injuries among a cohort adults with above average activity levels who were enrolled in Aerobics Center Longitudinal Study (Dallas, TX).Participants aged 20-85 yr completed baseline clinical examination (1970-1982) returned mailed follow-up survey 1986. Participants (5,028 men, 1,285 women) measured for aerobic fitness, height, body weight during examination. They reported detailed information about their physical injury...
The health effects of regular physical activity (PA) are well established and include decreased mortality morbidity related to several common chronic diseases, such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes, cancer, contributing improved mental health, functioning, weight control (1–3). Despite this, US adults continue get inadequate PA (4). In fact, inactivity was felt be a large public problem that in 1996 the Surgeon General released landmark report Physical Activity Health: A Report (3). This...
To help public health practitioners promote physical activities with a low risk of injury, this study determined the relation among type and duration activity, cardiorespiratory fitness, musculoskeletal injury in sample adults enrolled Aerobics Center Longitudinal Study. Subjects included 4,034 men 967 women who underwent baseline examination between 1970 1985 returned mailed follow-up survey 1986. At baseline, treadmill graded exercise test was used to measure fitness. follow-up, subjects...
Osteoarthritis (OA) clinical practice guidelines identify a substantial therapeutic role for physical activity, but objective information about the activity of this population is lacking. The aim study was to objectively measure levels in adults with knee OA and report prevalence meeting public health guidelines.
Background: The harmful relationship of sedentary behavior to health may reflect an exchange activity for moderateto- vigorous physical (MVPA), or be a separate risk factor. We examined whether time spent in is related disability activities daily living (ADL), independent MVPA older adults. Methods: nationally representative 2003−2006 National Health and Nutrition Examinations Surveys (NHANES) included 2286 adults aged 60 years whom was assessed by accelerometer. association between ADL task...
There has been limited characterization of the burden anxiety and depression, especially former, among US adults with arthritis in general population. The study objective was to estimate prevalence correlates depression doctor-diagnosed arthritis.The sample comprised ages ≥ 45 years (n = 1,793) from Arthritis Conditions Health Effects Survey (a cross-sectional, population-based, random-digit-dialed telephone interview survey). Anxiety were measured using separate validated subscales Impact...
To assess the inter-rater reliability, validity, and inter-instrument agreement of three quality rating instruments for observational studies. Inter-rater criterion reliability were assessed scales, Downs Black (D&B), Newcastle-Ottawa (NOS), Scottish Intercollegiate Guidelines Network (SIGN), using a sample 23 studies musculoskeletal health outcomes. D&B (Intraclass correlations [ICC] = 0.73; CI 0.47-0.88) NOS (ICC 0.52; 0.14-0.76) moderate to good was poor SIGN (κ 0.09; -0.22-0.40). The not...
Arthritis is highly prevalent and the leading cause of disability among older adults in United States owing to aging population increases prevalence risk factors (e.g., obesity). will play a large role health-related quality life, functional independence, upcoming decades. We have emphasized public health system reducing impact this growing problem, we presented priority actions.
Following systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients carefully defined in a population-based registry, standardized mortality ratios were two to four times higher persons with SLE than the general population.
Abstract Objective To estimate the national prevalence of arthritis‐attributable work limitation (AAWL) among persons ages 18–64 with doctor‐diagnosed arthritis and examine correlates AAWL. Methods Using 2002 National Health Interview Survey, we estimated AAWL (limited in whether individuals work, type they do, or amount do) univariable multivariable‐adjusted logistic regression analyses. Survey data were analyzed SAS SUDAAN to account for complex sample design. Results A total 5.3% all US...
To evaluate the effects of a revised 6-week walking program for adults with arthritis, Walk With Ease (WWE), delivered in 2 formats, instructor-led group or self-directed.In an observational pre-post study design, 462 individuals self-reported arthritis selected either format (n = 192) self-directed 270) format. Performance and outcomes were assessed at baseline 6 weeks. Self-reported 1 year. Adjusted mean outcome values participants determined using regression models, adjusting...
To investigate the public health impact of obesity and other modifiable risk factors related to physical inactivity in adults with knee osteoarthritis (OA).The frequency as defined by US Department Health Human Services was assessed from objective accelerometer monitoring 1,089 participants (ages 49-84 years) radiographic OA during Osteoarthritis Initiative 48-month visit (2008-2010). The relationship between (weight status, dietary fat, fiber, smoking, depressive symptoms, function, pain,...
To describe the health-related quality of life (HRQOL) persons with and without arthritis in 50 US states District Columbia, to determine correlates poor HRQOL arthritis.Data from Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System were used. Descriptive analyses age standardized multivariate used logistic regression.Of ages ≥18 years arthritis, 27% reported fair/poor health, compared 12% arthritis. The mean numbers physically unhealthy, mentally activity-limited days for exceeded those In regression...
