Joint trajectories of pain, depression and frailty and associations with adverse outcomes among community-dwelling older adults: A longitudinal study. Geriatr Nurs 2024; 59:26-32. [PMID: 38981205 DOI: 10.1016/j.gerinurse.2024.06.039] [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: 04/06/2024] [Revised: 06/12/2024] [Accepted: 06/27/2024] [Indexed: 07/11/2024]
Abstract
This study aimed to examine joint trajectories of pain, depression and frailty and their associations with adverse outcomes. Four waves of national data from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS 2011-2018) were used, involving 4217 participants aged ≥60 years. Joint trajectories were fit using parallel-process latent class growth analysis, and their associations with adverse outcomes were evaluated using modified Poisson regression. Four joint trajectories were identified. Compared with most favorable group, other three joint trajectory groups had higher risk of functional disability and hospitalization. Slowly progressive pain, depression and frailty and persistent combination of pain, depression and frailty were also associated with cognitive decline, while slowly reduced pain and depression but persistent frailty was associated with all-cause mortality. The findings highlight unique characteristics and health impacts of concurrent changes in pain, depression and frailty over time, implicating the integrated physical and psychological care for older adults.

Hou T. Depressive Symptoms, Sleep Quality, and Pain Are Associated With Frailty in Nursing Home Residents During the COVID-19 Pandemic. Pain Manag Nurs 2024; 25:241-248. [PMID: 38413256 DOI: 10.1016/j.pmn.2024.02.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/14/2023] [Revised: 01/30/2024] [Accepted: 02/03/2024] [Indexed: 02/29/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The COVID-19 pandemic has caused severe effects on older adults. Depressive symptoms, poor sleep quality, and pain are common in older adults with frailty. However, it is unknown the relationship between these symptoms and frailty in nursing home residents and the difference of importance between pain intensity and pain impact on frailty during the COVID-19 Pandemic. Therefore, this study aims to explore the associations between depressive symptoms, poor sleep quality, pain intensity, and pain impact with frailty in older adults living in nursing homes. METHODS In this cross-sectional population-based study, 172 older adults living in nursing homes from Changsha in China were included. We collected data on depressive symptoms, sleep quality, pain, and frailty using the Patient Health Questionnaire, the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality, the Brief Pain Inventory-short form, and the FRAIL-NH Scale. Generalized linear regression models were used to explore the interaction association between these symptoms with frailty. RESULTS Most older adults were between 80 and 90 years old. Approximately 11.6% of older adults experienced one of the following symptoms: depressive symptoms, poor sleep quality, pain intensity, or pain impact. Moreover, 76.7% of older adults experienced at least two of these symptoms. The most common overlapping symptoms were depressive symptoms and poor sleep quality (14.5%). Among nursing home residents, the most common sites of pain were the lower limbs, followed by the back. There was a strong correlation between depressive symptoms, sleep quality, pain intensity, pain impact, and frailty. After adjusting for covariates, the interaction term between any two or three symptoms of depressive symptoms, poor sleep quality, pain intensity, and pain impact was found to be associated with a higher likelihood of frailty in older adults residing in nursing homes (p< .05). CONCLUSIONS Depressive symptoms, poor sleep quality, pain intensity, and pain impact are common among nursing home residents. Furthermore, these symptoms interacted with each other. In future studies, multidisciplinary interventions aimed at releasing these symptoms and reducing the adverse outcome of frailty are needed.

Relationship between phase angle and lower-extremity function in older adults: Itabashi Longitudinal Study on Aging. Nutrition 2024; 119:112289. [PMID: 38104512 DOI: 10.1016/j.nut.2023.112289] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/07/2023] [Revised: 10/24/2023] [Accepted: 10/29/2023] [Indexed: 12/19/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Evaluating muscle quality instead of its mass has gained attention in diagnosing sarcopenia. The aim of this study was to examine whether phase angle (PhA) as a bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA)-derived muscle quality indicator is associated with overall lower extremity function better than appendicular skeletal muscle mass index (ASMI) in community-dwelling older adults. METHODS This cross-sectional study used data from the Itabashi Longitudinal Study on Aging, a community-based cohort study. A sex-stratified multivariate logistic regression analysis was conducted using PhA and ASMI as exposures, and low physical function defined as short physical performance battery score <10 as the outcome, adjusted for age, being overweight, knee pain, and non-communicable diseases. Discrimination of low physical function was compared using the receiver operating characteristic curve. RESULTS This study included 1464 participants (age 76 [73-80] y; 757 women), with 58 men (8%) and 66 women (9%) exhibiting low physical function. The multivariate odds ratio (OR; 95% confidence interval [CI]) for low physical function among the highest quartile, compared with the lowest quartile were significant in PhA in multiple sites (e.g., OR, 0.09; 95% CI, 0.03-0.32] for men and 0.12; 95% CI, 0.04-0.33 for women in the left leg) but not in ASMI (OR, 0.51; 95% CI, 0.19-1.34 for men and 0.56; 95% CI, 0.21-1.47 for women). Legs and whole-body PhA outperformed the ASMI in discriminating low physical function (P < 0.001). CONCLUSION PhA reflected physical function better than ASMI; using PhA instead of ASMI in BIA-based morphometric evaluation may add information on low physical function and enhance the diagnostic value of sarcopenia.

Relationships between Physical Activity and Selected Chronic Diseases among Functionally Independent Long-Term Care Residents during the Post-Lockdown Period in Croatia. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH 2023; 20:6301. [PMID: 37444148 PMCID: PMC10341333 DOI: 10.3390/ijerph20136301] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/15/2023] [Revised: 06/26/2023] [Accepted: 07/02/2023] [Indexed: 07/15/2023]
Abstract
The aim of this observational study was to investigate the level and association of physical activity and selected chronic diseases in functionally independent LTC residents after prolonged physical and social isolation during COVID-19 in Croatia. Adhering to the inclusion criteria, 180 functionally independent residents were included in the study. Assessment of physical activity was carried out by 7-day motor monitoring. Prolonged physical and social isolation negatively affected the achieved level of physical activity of LTC residents (x¯ = 5058.74). Major depressive disorder resulted in significantly lower residents' physical activity scores, demonstrating a shrinking effect ranging from 0.42 to 0.45. A significant negative impact on the residents' physical activity was also found in the presence of osteoarthritis and iron deficiency anemia, where a downward effect was present in the range from 0.66-0.72 and 0.64 to 0.66. The presence of comorbidities has a significant negative impact on the residents' physical activity, where a downward effect is present in the range from 0.91-0.92.
