[PMID: 39084614 DOI: 10.1123/jpah.2024-0003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/03/2024] [Revised: 04/15/2024] [Accepted: 05/20/2024] [Indexed: 08/02/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Cognitively stimulating sedentary behavior (SB) may positively impact cognition. This study aimed to (1) describe participation across types of SB among older adults with and without cognitive impairment and (2) examine how baseline SB participation impacts cognition, longitudinally. METHODS We used National Health and Aging Trends Study data from rounds 6 to 11 for cross-sectional and longitudinal analyses. Participants were 2244 community-dwelling older adults who were selected for the SB module in round 6. The SBs were categorized as active (eg, hobbies) and passive (eg, television). Participants were also categorized as having intact or impaired orientation, memory, and executive function based on tests of orientation, recall, and the clock-drawing test. We calculated descriptive statistics characterizing SB by cognitive status. Aim 2 involved competing risks proportional hazard models of participants with intact cognition (n = 1574) to identify associations between baseline SB and changes in cognition, moves to institutional care, and death over 6 years. RESULTS Participants (40% ≥ 80 years, 55% female, 77% White non-Hispanic) averaged 8.75 (SD = 4.42) hours of daily SB, including 4.05 (SD = 2.32) hours of passive SB and 4.75 (SD = 3.13) hours of active SB. Active SB >3 hours per day was associated with a lower risk of impaired orientation (subdistribution hazard models = 0.60; P = .048) and memory (subdistribution hazard models = 0.62; P = .02). Baseline participation in passive SB did not impact the risk of having a change in cognition during rounds 7 to 11. CONCLUSION Cognitive decline was lower among older adults who participated in more active SB. Thus, type of SB should be considered in examining the impact on cognition.

Physiol Genomics 2024; 56:578-589. [PMID: 38881426 DOI: 10.1152/physiolgenomics.00019.2024] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/11/2024] [Revised: 05/21/2024] [Accepted: 06/10/2024] [Indexed: 06/18/2024] Open
Abstract
The aim of the current study was to investigate interindividual differences in muscle thickness of the rectus femoris (MTRF) following 12 wk of resistance training (RT) or high-intensity interval training (HIIT) to explore the genetic architecture underlying skeletal muscle hypertrophy and to construct predictive models. We conducted musculoskeletal ultrasound assessments of the MTRF response in 440 physically inactive adults after the 12-wk exercise period. A genome-wide association study was used to identify variants associated with the MTRF response, separately for RT and HIIT. Using the polygenic predictor score (PPS), we estimated the genetic contribution to exercise-induced hypertrophy. Predictive models for the MTRF response were constructed using random forest (RF), support vector mac (SVM), and generalized linear model (GLM) in 10 cross-validated approaches. MTRF increased significantly after both RT (8.8%, P < 0.05) and HIIT (5.3%, P < 0.05), but with considerable interindividual differences (RT: -13.5 to 38.4%, HIIT: -14.2 to 30.7%). Eleven lead single-nucleotide polymorphisms in RT and eight lead single-nucleotide polymorphisms in HIIT were identified at a significance level of P < 1 × 10-5. The PPS was associated with the MTRF response, explaining 47.2% of the variation in response to RT and 38.3% of the variation in response to HIIT. Notably, the GLM and SVM predictive models exhibited superior performance compared with RF models (P < 0.05), and the GLM demonstrated optimal performance with an area under curve of 0.809 (95% confidence interval: 0.669-0.949). Factors such as PPS, baseline MTRF, and exercise protocol exerted influence on the MTRF response to exercise, with PPS being the primary contributor. The GLM and SVM predictive model, incorporating both genetic and phenotypic factors, emerged as promising tools for predicting exercise-induced skeletal muscle hypertrophy.NEW & NOTEWORTHY The interindividual variability induced muscle hypertrophy by resistance training (RT) or high-intensity interval training (HIIT) and the associated genetic architecture remain uncertain. We identified genetic variants that underlie RT- or HIIT-induced muscle hypertrophy and established them as pivotal factors influencing the response regardless of the training type. The genetic-phenotype predictive model developed has the potential to identify nonresponders or individuals with low responsiveness before engaging in exercise training.

Accelerometer-Measured Daily Behaviors That Mediate the Association Between Refractive Status and Depressive Disorders. Transl Vis Sci Technol 2024; 13:3. [PMID: 38953853 PMCID: PMC11221614 DOI: 10.1167/tvst.13.7.3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/11/2024] [Accepted: 05/06/2024] [Indexed: 07/04/2024] Open
Abstract
Purpose To identify the accelerometer-measured daily behaviors that mediate the association of refractive status with depressive disorders and enhance the understanding of behavioral differences in depression. Methods Participants with baseline mean spherical equivalent (MSE) and 7-day accelerometer measurements from the UK Biobank were included in this cohort study. Refractive status was categorized as hyperopia and non-hyperopia. Four daily behaviors, including moderate to vigorous intensity physical activity (MVPA), light physical activity (LPA), sedentary, and sleep were recorded between 2013 and 2015. We also assessed 24-hour behavior patterns. Depression cases were defined through both questionnaires and hospital records over 10 years of follow-up. Results Among 20,607 individuals, every 0.5-diopter increase in MSE was associated with a 6% higher risk of depressive disorders, with hyperopia participants at a higher risk than non-hyperopia participants (odds ratio, 1.14; 95% confidence interval, 1.05-1.23; P = 0.001). MVPA and sleep time significantly correlated with depressive disorders, with odds ratios of 0.79 and 1.14 (P < 0.05). MSE showed significant correlations with all four behaviors. The effects of MVPA and sleep duration on MSE and depressive disorders varied throughout the day. Mediation analyses showed that MVPA and sleep partially mediated the relationship between MSE and depressive disorders, with 35.2% of the association between moderate to high hyperopia and depression mediated by MVPA. Conclusions Physical activity and sleep significantly mediate the relationship between MSE and depressive disorders. Translational Relevance The mediation effect of MVPA highlights its therapeutic potential in reducing the risk of depression among individuals with moderate to severe hyperopia. Interventions aimed at increasing daytime MVPA and decreasing daytime sleep could enhance mental health in this vulnerable group.

Longitudinal leisure-time physical activity profiles throughout adulthood and related characteristics: a 36-year follow-up study of the older Finnish Twin Cohort. Int J Behav Nutr Phys Act 2024; 21:47. [PMID: 38671483 PMCID: PMC11046842 DOI: 10.1186/s12966-024-01600-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/11/2023] [Accepted: 04/19/2024] [Indexed: 04/28/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Personalized interventions aiming to increase physical activity in individuals are effective. However, from a public health perspective, it would be important to stimulate physical activity in larger groups of people who share the vulnerability to be physically inactive throughout adulthood. To find these high-risk groups, we identified 36-year leisure-time physical activity profiles from young adulthood to late midlife in females and males. Moreover, we uncovered which anthropometric-, demographic-, lifestyle-, and health-related characteristics were associated with these physical activity profiles. METHODS We included 2,778 females and 1,938 males from the population-based older Finnish Twin Cohort Study, who responded to health and behavior surveys at the mean ages of 24, 30, 40 and 60. Latent profile analysis was used to identify longitudinal leisure-time physical activity profiles. RESULTS We found five longitudinal leisure-time physical activity profiles for both females and males. Females' profiles were: 1) Low increasing moderate (29%), 2) Moderate stable (23%), 3) Very low increasing low (20%), 4) Low stable (20%) and 5) High increasing high (9%). Males' profiles were: 1) Low increasing moderate (29%), 2) Low stable very low (26%), 3) Moderate decreasing low (21%), 4) High fluctuating high (17%) and 5) Very low stable (8%). In both females and males, lower leisure-time physical activity profiles were associated with lower education, higher body mass index, smoking, poorer perceived health, higher sedentary time, high blood pressure, and a higher risk for type 2 diabetes. Furthermore, lower leisure-time physical activity was linked to a higher risk of depression in females. CONCLUSIONS We found several longitudinal leisure-time physical activity profiles with unique changes in both sexes. Fewer profiles in females than in males remained or became low physically active during the 36-year follow-up. We observed that lower education, higher body mass index, and more smoking already in young adulthood were associated with low leisure-time physical activity profiles. However, the fact that several longitudinal profiles demonstrated a change in their physical activity behavior over time implies the potential for public health interventions to improve leisure-time physical activity levels.

Trajectories of sleep duration and quality and their association with mild cognitive impairment, frailty, and all-cause mortality. Sleep Health 2024; 10:240-248. [PMID: 38238122 DOI: 10.1016/j.sleh.2023.12.002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/24/2023] [Revised: 11/08/2023] [Accepted: 12/05/2023] [Indexed: 06/19/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES To identify longitudinal trajectories of sleep duration and quality and estimate their association with mild cognitive impairment, frailty, and all-cause mortality. METHODS We used data from three waves (2009, 2014, 2017) of the WHO Study on Global Aging and Adult Health in Mexico. The sample consisted of 2722 adults aged 50 and over. Sleep duration and quality were assessed by self-report. Sleep trajectories were determined by applying growth mixture models. Mixed-effects logistic (mild cognitive impairment) and ordinal logistic (frailty), and Cox proportional hazards (all-cause mortality) models were fitted. RESULTS Three classes for sleep duration ("optimal-stable," "long-increasing," and "short-decreasing") and quality ("very good-increasing," "very good-decreasing," and "moderate/poor stable") were identified. Compared to the optimal-stable group, the long-increasing trajectory had greater odds for mild cognitive impairment (odds ratio=1.68, 95% CI: 1.01-2.78) and frailty (odds ratio=1.66, 95% CI: 1.13-2.46), and higher risk for all-cause mortality (hazard ratio=1.91, 95% CI: 1.14-3.19); and the short-decreasing class had a higher probability of frailty (odds ratio=1.83, 95% CI: 1.26-2.64). Regarding the sleep quality, the moderate/poor stable trajectory had higher odds of frailty (odds ratio=1.71, 95% CI: 1.18-2.47) than very good-increasing group. CONCLUSIONS These results have important implications for clinical practice and public health policies, given that the evaluation and treatment of sleep disorders need more attention in primary care settings. Interventions to detect and treat sleep disorders should be integrated into clinical practice to prevent or delay the appearance of alterations in older adults' physical and cognitive function. Further research on sleep quality and duration is warranted to understand their contribution to healthy aging.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Life-long health inequalities exert enduring impacts and are governed by social determinants crucial for achieving healthy aging. A fundamental aspect of healthy aging, intrinsic capacity, is the primary focus of this study. Our objective is to evaluate the social inequalities connected with the trajectories of intrinsic capacity, shedding light on the impacts of socioeconomic position, gender, and ethnicity. METHODS Our dynamic cohort study was rooted in three waves (2009, 2014, 2017) of the World Health Organization's Study on Global AGEing and Adult Health in Mexico. We incorporated a nationally representative sample comprising 2722 older Mexican adults aged 50 years and over. Baseline measurements of socioeconomic position, gender, and ethnicity acted as the exposure variables. We evaluated intrinsic capacity across five domains: cognition, psychological, sensory, vitality, and locomotion. The Relative Index of Inequality and Slope Index of Inequality were used to quantify socioeconomic disparities. RESULTS We discerned three distinct intrinsic capacity trajectories: steep decline, moderate decline, and slight increase. Significant disparities based on wealth, educational level, gender, and ethnicity were observed. Older adults with higher wealth and education typically exhibited a trajectory of moderate decrease or slight increase in intrinsic capacity. In stark contrast, women and indigenous individuals were more likely to experience a steeply declining trajectory. CONCLUSIONS These findings underscore the pressing need to address social determinants, minimize gender and ethnic discrimination to ensure equal access to resources and opportunities across the lifespan. It is imperative for policies and interventions to prioritize these social determinants in order to promote healthy aging and alleviate health disparities. This approach will ensure that specific demographic groups receive customized support to sustain their intrinsic capacity during their elder years.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Insufficient or decreasing physical activity is common in older adults. Most studies on physical activity changes and mortality were conducted in adults younger than 80 years old in developed countries. We aimed to investigate the relationship between changes in physical activity and longevity in the oldest old (80 years or older) population using the Chinese Longitudinal Healthy Longevity Survey. METHODS Participants aged 80 or older at baseline were categorized into four groups: 1) remaining physically inactive (n = 14,287), 2) remaining physically active (n = 5411), 3) shifting from being inactive to active (n = 1364), and 4) shifting from being active to inactive (n = 1401). We fitted accelerated failure time Weibull survival regression models, adjusting for baseline sociodemographics, lifestyle factors and disease status. We further examined whether the associations differed by subgroups. RESULTS A total of 15,707 participants died during follow-up (median duration of follow-up = 3.0 years). Compared with participants who remained physically inactive, those who remained active (fully adjusted event time ratio (ETR): 1.14, 95%CI: 1.11-1.17) or shifted from being inactive to active (fully adjusted ETR: 1.14, 95%CI: 1.08-1.20) had statistically significant longer survival time. No significant association was observed between remaining physically inactive and shifting from being active to inactive. Subgroup analyses showed consistent associations in nearly all strata. CONCLUSION Maintaining frequent physical activity or shifting from being physically inactive to active was consistently associated with longer survival time in the oldest old population. Our findings provide evidence for encouraging older adults to regularly engage in physical activity to gain longevity benefits.

Abstract
Physical activity (PA) and sedentary behavior (SB) affect people's physical and mental health. The aim was to examine changes in PA and SB in a Swedish population: at three time points: 2019, 2020, and 2022, i.e., before and during the COVID-19 pandemic. Pre-pandemic PA and SB, i.e., 2019, were assessed retrospectively in 2020. Associations between PA and SB with sex, age, occupation, COVID-19 history, weight change, health, and life satisfaction were also examined. The design was repeated cross-sectionally. The main findings demonstrate the PA levels decreased between 2019 and 2020, and between 2019 and 2022, but not between 2020 and 2022. The SB increase was most evident between 2019 and 2020. Between 2020 and 2022, results showed a decrease in SB, but SB did not reach pre-pandemic levels. Both sexes decreased their PA over time. Although men reported more PA sex, they did not have any association with PA changes. Two age groups, 19-29 years and 65-79 years, decreased their PA over time. Both PA and SB were associated with COVID-19, occupation, age, life satisfaction, health, and weight change. This study underlines the importance of monitoring changes in PA and SB as they have relevance for health and well-being. There is a risk that the levels of PA and SB do not return to pre-pandemic levels in the population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Aging and sedentary behavior are independent risk factors for non-communicable diseases. An active lifestyle and structured physical activity are positively associated with a healthier quality of life in the elderly. Here, we explored the proteomic/metabolomic muscular signature induced by lifelong football training associated with successful aging. METHODS The study was performed on nine lifelong football players (67.3 ± 2.8 yrs) and nine aged-matched untrained subjects. We performed a proteomic/metabolomic approach on V. lateralis muscle biopsies; the obtained data were analyzed by means of different bioinformatic tools. RESULTS Our results indicated that lifelong football training is able to enhance the muscles' oxidative capacity in the elderly by promoting fatty acids as preferential energetic substrates and hence determining a healthier body composition and metabolic profile; furthermore, we showed that the total polyamine content is higher in lifelong football players' muscle, enforcing the involvement of polyamines in muscle growth and hypertrophy. CONCLUSIONS Lifelong football training, as a structured physical activity, significantly influences the expression of the proteins and metabolites involved in oxidative metabolism and muscle hypertrophy associated with successful aging.

Yuan Y, Hu W, Zhang X, Borchert G, Wang W, Zhu Z, He M. Daily Patterns of Accelerometer-Measured Movement Behaviors in Glaucoma Patients: Insights From UK Biobank Participants. Asia Pac J Ophthalmol (Phila) 2022; 11:521-528. [PMID: 36417676 DOI: 10.1097/apo.0000000000000578] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/13/2022] [Accepted: 09/23/2022] [Indexed: 11/24/2022] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this study is to compare daily patterns of accelerometer-measured movement behaviors between glaucoma patients and those without glaucoma. METHODS From 2013 to 2015, 106,053 UK Biobank participants took part in a 7-day accelerometer test. Based on established algorithms, continuous accelerometer data were classified into 4 movement behaviors: moderate to vigorous physical activity (MVPA), light physical activity, sedentary behaviors, and sleep. Glaucoma and other covariates were defined according to baseline assessments and inpatient diagnosis records. Negative binomial regression models were used to compare daily patterns of movement behaviors between glaucoma patients and those without glaucoma. RESULTS Accelerometer data from 1262 glaucoma patients and 81,551 participants without glaucoma were included. Compared with participants without glaucoma, glaucoma patients spent 4.7% less time on MVPA in multivariable models [mean=28.3 vs 31.4 min/d; incidence-rate ratio (IRR) 0.953, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.910-0.998; P=0.044], which was mainly attributed to the decreased MVPA time during 18:00-23:59 (IRR=0.863, Bonferroni-corrected 95% CI: 0.768-0.970; P=0.002). Subgroup analyses indicated that compared with those with normal body mass index, the decreased MVPA time was more pronounced in participants with overweight and obesity (IRR=0.912, Bonferroni-corrected 95% CI: 0.851-0.978; P for interaction=0.007). No significant association was found between glaucoma and time spent on other movement behaviors including light physical activity, sedentary behaviors, and sleep. CONCLUSIONS Daily patterns of movement behaviors were significantly changed in glaucoma patients. Compared with those without glaucoma, glaucoma patients spent less time on MVPA, especially in the evening.
