In this study, we calculated on health conditions for all persons aged 60 years or older United States during 1 year.The predictors were discrimination aimed at persons, negative age stereotypes, and self-perceptions aging. Health care computed by combining analyses impact with comprehensive spending data year eight most-expensive conditions,...
Background and Objectives Falls account for the highest proportion of preventable injury among older adults. In an effort to aid clinicians screen, assess, intervene decrease fall risk in adults, United States' Centers Disease Control Prevention (CDC) developed Stopping Elderly Accidents, Deaths, & Injuries (STEADI) Tool Kit. We referred our adaptation STEADI algorithm as 'Quick-STEADI' compared predictive abilities three-level (low, moderate, high risk) two-level (at-risk, not at-risk)...
The US older adult population is projected to considerably increase in the future, and continued driving mobility important for health aspects populations with fewer transportation alternatives. This study evaluated whether frailty associated low-mileage (<1865 miles per year) cessation among adults. Baseline demographics data were collected 2990 drivers via in-person assessments questionnaires, 2964 reporting baseline data. Multivariable log-binomial regression models used evaluate...
Abstract Background The COVID‐19 pandemic has overrun hospital systems while exacerbating economic hardship and food insecurity on a global scale. In an effort to understand how early action find control the virus is associated with cumulative outcomes, we explored country‐level testing capacity affects later mortality. Methods We used Our World in Data database explore mortality records 27 countries from December 31, 2019, September 30, 2020; applied Cox proportional hazards regression...
Abstract Chronic absenteeism is a public health concern. School refusal due to emotional distress one reason students exhibit chronic absenteeism. The objective of this systematic review was determine potential aspects interventions, in school settings or involving school-based component, that are successful addressing among high school–age adolescents. After duplicated records were excluded, 1,864 studies identified from searches. abstracts and full text articles independently reviewed...
There is an integral research gap regarding whether there a relationship between pain levels and low physical activity among older women. This secondary analysis of longitudinal cohort study, the Women's Health Aging Study (WHAS) II. Our analyses included 436 community-dwelling women ages 70 79, who were followed for 10.5 years. We employed marginal structural modeling, which controls time-dependent confounding, with aim assessing potential direct association assess graded relationship....
Importance: Few studies have addressed the combined effects of health-promoting and self-care behaviors among older adults. Thus, new research is needed to assess potential for behavior change prolong independence in later life. Objectives: To determine relationships between risks mobility activities daily living (ADLs) over time. Design: Longitudinal data was used from National Health Aging Trends Study (NHATS) cohort. Eight baseline were summarized using latent class analysis. Separately,...
