Cui Y, Choi M. Assessment of the Daily Living Activities of Older People (2004-2023): A Bibliometric and Visual Analysis. Healthcare (Basel) 2024; 12:1180. [PMID: 38921294 PMCID: PMC11203029 DOI: 10.3390/healthcare12121180] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/13/2024] [Revised: 06/05/2024] [Accepted: 06/07/2024] [Indexed: 06/27/2024] Open
Abstract
With a rapidly aging global population, comprehending the risks associated with older people's activities of daily living is increasingly important; yet, interdisciplinary analyses remain rare. By providing a bibliometric overview of the capability risks associated with older people's activities of daily living, in order to identify prevailing trends and future directions in the field, the study aims to fill this gap. Using CiteSpace software to analyze data from 928 articles published between 2004 and 2023, the study results demonstrate the growing interest in the capability risks of older people's activities of daily living, with the United States leading in the number of publications, and geriatrics emerging as the dominant discipline. Notably, Institut National de la Sante et de la Recherche Medicale (Inserm) in France emerges as a pivotal contributor in the field. Key research topics encompass risk factors associated with a decline in daily activities and disease-related studies, with emerging trends in cognitive function and instrumental activity research. Future research should prioritize the development of predictive mechanisms for daily living trends, exploration of caregiving solutions, and promotion of interdisciplinary collaboration. This study highlights promising avenues for further research, emphasizing the importance of predictive modeling, innovative caregiving strategies, and interdisciplinary cooperation in addressing capability risks in the activities of daily living of older people.

Asdaq SMB, Alshehri S, Alajlan SA, Almutiri AA, Alanazi AKR. Depression in persons with disabilities: a scoping review. Front Public Health 2024; 12:1383078. [PMID: 38779421 PMCID: PMC11110534 DOI: 10.3389/fpubh.2024.1383078] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/07/2024] [Accepted: 04/25/2024] [Indexed: 05/25/2024] Open
Abstract
Individuals with disabilities are more vulnerable to depression development than the general population. This study sought to map the evidence on current knowledge of depression, intervention strategies, and assessment tools among people with disabilities. This review was conducted following Arksey and O'Malley's scoping review methodology framework. An electronic search was performed on four English databases: PubMed, Cochrane Library, PsycINFO, and Web of Science. The original search returned 1802 results, with 1,116 from Web of Science, 626 from PubMed, 25 from Cochrane, and 35 from PsycINFO. After removing duplicates, 786 articles were chosen for the title and abstract screening processes. Finally, 112 full-text publications were deemed eligible, with 41 papers being included in this scoping review for analysis. A large proportion (32; 78.04%) of the studies chosen were cross-sectional, 14 (34.14%) of them reported general disability, 12 (29.26%) used a patient health questionnaire (PHQ-9) to measure depression, and 14 (34.14%) had interventions, including cognitive behavioral therapy, psychological counseling, social support, and physical activity. All interventions successfully reduced the severity of the depression. Cognitive behavioral therapies and psychological counseling were widely used interventions that had a significant impact on reducing depression. More randomized controlled trials are required, and they should focus on individuals with specific disabilities to provide disability-specific care that can improve the quality of life for disabled individuals.

Abstract
Background The prevalence of family dysfunction, anxiety and depression is high in people with disabilities due to long-term activity constraints and social difficulties. Recently, although studies have attempted to provide guidance for family therapy by focusing on the relationship between family function and negative emotions, the specific effects of improved family function during family therapy on alleviation of anxiety and depressive symptoms have been obscured. Thus, this study attempted to elucidate the impact of specific family functioning on specific symptoms of anxiety and depression through network analysis. Methods Family APGAR Index Questionnaire (APGAR), Generalized Anxiety Scale (GAD-7), and Patient Health Questionnaire Depression Scale (PHQ-9) were used to survey 897 adults with disabilities in Sichuan Province. Meanwhile, network analysis for studying the relationship between anxiety, depression and family functioning among the disabled via R software. Results The network analysis showed that (1) Nodes PHQ4 ("Energy"), APGAR3 ("Growth"), GAD1 ("Nervousness") and GAD4 ("Relaxing Trouble") were central nodes in the network model; (2) Bridge nodes linking family function, anxiety and depressive symptoms in the sample were PHQ9 ("Suicide ideation"), PHQ6 ("Worthlessness"), GAD1 ("Nervousness") and GAD5 ("Restlessness"); (3) The node APGAR5 ("Resolve") directly connects the bridge symptoms PHQ9 ("Suicide ideation") and PHQ8 ("Motor"). Conclusion This study suggests that therapists could target the resolve of family members during family therapy to reduce suicidal ideation and enhance the level of activity of people with disabilities, thereby improving the network of anxiety and depression symptoms and alleviating negative emotions of people with disabilities.

The bidirectional relationship between depressive symptoms and functional limitations among centenarian survivors in their 80s: Testing bivariate latent change score models. Aging Ment Health 2023; 27:1720-1728.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The purpose of the study was to examine a bivariate latent change score model of depressive symptoms and functional limitations (activities of daily living) among centenarian or near-centenarian survivors over four waves using the Health and Retirement Study. METHOD Four hundred and sixty participants who eventually survived to age 98 or older were included by calculating their death age. Data from the time when the participants were in their 80s were analyzed. The mean age at baseline (1994) was 85.5 years. The observation interval was 2 years, from 1994 to 2000. Including age, gender, and education as a covariate, eight different models were conducted to examine the bivariate effects among depressive symptoms and functional limitations. RESULTS Of the eight models, the bivariate model of depressive symptoms predicting change in functional limitations fitted the data best. The parameter estimates of the final model indicated significant predictive pathways from depressive symptoms to subsequent changes in depressive symptoms and functional limitations. CONCLUSION This study tested the bidirectional relationship between depressive symptoms and functional limitations among centenarian survivors in their 80s, which uncovered that depressive symptoms is a dominant variable among the two constructs. Our findings add to a lacking number of longitudinal studies with oldest old adults.

Abstract
Symptoms of anxiety and depressive disorders have been increasing substantially among adults in the United States (US) during the COVID-19 pandemic, particularly for low-income populations. Under-resourced communities have difficulties accessing optimal treatment for anxiety and depression due to costs as well as the result of limited access to health care providers. Telehealth has been growing as a digital strategy to treat anxiety and depression across the country but it is unclear how best to implement telehealth interventions to serve low-income populations. A narrative review was conducted to evaluate the role of telehealth in addressing anxiety and depression in low-income groups in the US. A PubMed database search identified a total of 14 studies published from 2012 to 2022 on telehealth interventions that focused on strengthening access to therapy, coordination of care, and medication and treatment adherence. Our findings suggest that telehealth increases patient engagement through virtual therapy and the use of primarily telephone communication to treat and monitor anxiety and depression. Telehealth seems to be a promising approach to improving anxiety and depressive symptoms but socioeconomic and technological barriers to accessing mental health services are substantial for low-income US populations.

Abstract
Objective In the context of an increased focus on geriatric depression in recent years, this study examined the associations between different types of self-care disability, the number of self-care disabilities, and depressive symptoms among middle-aged and elderly Chinese people. Method The data for this study were extracted from the follow-up survey (conducted in 2018) of the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS). The sample comprised 10808 participants aged 45 years and older. The Activities of Daily Living (ADL) scale and the Center for Epidemiological Studies Depression (CESD-10) Scale were used to assess self-care disability and depressive symptoms, respectively. Result The prevalence of depressive symptoms and self-care disability among the surveyed residents was 45.1% and 23.4%, respectively. Overall, there was a significant positive association between self-care disability and depressive symptoms. Participants who reported having a self-care disability in relation dressing, bathing, transferring in and out of bed, using the toilet, and controlling urination and defecation were found to have a significantly higher risk of depressive symptoms. In addition, participants with a greater cumulative quantity of self-care disabilities had a higher risk of depressive symptoms, and higher CESD-10 scores. Conclusion Self-care disability is a risk factor for depressive symptoms among middle-aged and elderly Chinese people. A positive correlation between the number of self-care disabilities and the risk of depressive symptoms was found.

Belanger HG, Winsberg M. Exploring social determinants of health: Comparing lower and higher income individuals participating in telepsychiatric care for depression. Front Psychiatry 2022; 13:1026361. [PMID: 36683980 PMCID: PMC9849930 DOI: 10.3389/fpsyt.2022.1026361] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/23/2022] [Accepted: 12/14/2022] [Indexed: 01/07/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Telemental health may increase access to care; there has been little research on efficacy with those at the lower end of the income distribution. The purpose of this study was to determine whether lower vs. higher income patients receiving telepsychiatric care for depression achieve: (1) effective symptom reduction and (2) similar outcomes. METHODS Data utilized were obtained from a national mental health telehealth company and consisted of 5,426 U.S.-based patients receiving psychiatric care for moderate to severe depression between October, 2018 and January, 2022. Propensity matching was used to create lower and higher income samples (n = 379 in each) using 22 covariates. These samples were then compared using repeated measures ANOVA on Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) scores at start of treatment, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, and 16 weeks. RESULTS Both lower and higher income groups made significant improvement over time, with groups averaging mild symptom severity by week 16. There was a significant group x time interaction, such that the lower income group had significantly greater depression severity at the last two timepoints. CONCLUSION Lower and higher income groups both made significant improvement in depression symptom severity over time following initiation of psychiatric treatment via a telehealth platform, though higher income individuals, all else being equal besides employment, tend to do better. These findings suggest that when lower income individuals do participate in care, good outcomes can be achieved. Further research is needed to better understand the role social determinants of health (SDOH) play in outcome disparities.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To examine the moderating effects of age and sex in the role of functional disability as a mediator between pain and depression. METHODS Participants were 1917 community-dwelling older adults from Jinan, China. Data were collected on pain intensity, functional disability in activities of daily living and instrumental activities of daily living, depressive symptoms and covariates. RESULTS Functional disability partially mediated the relationship between pain intensity and depressive symptoms (estimate = 0.015, SE = 0.007, 95% CI [0.004, 0.030]). Age and sex moderated both the direct and indirect effect of the mediation model. The mediating effect of functional disability was significant in the old-old men, young-old men, and young-old women, but not in the old-old women. CONCLUSIONS Interventions should target both pain and pain-related functional disability to improve their emotional well-being among community-dwelling older adults. Importantly, strategies should be tailored across different age and sex groups to improve their effectiveness.
