Abstract
Morbidity and mortality during chemotherapy in older adults with haematological malignancy can be unpredictable. The Haemato-Oncology Frailty (HOF) score was previously found to predict outcomes in a cohort of patients with plasma cell myeloma. In this study, we assess its utility in assessing frailty in patients with lymphoma, and compare its performance to that of two other frailty scores. The HOF score was able to predict progression-free survival in this population, and was also shown to have potential in assessing the dynamism of frailty during chemotherapy. It performed well when compared to the Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) score and the Haematopoietic Cell Transplantation-Specific Comorbidity Index (HCTCI), although the study was not powered to assess for non-inferiority. The HOF score is a new score with the potential for application in different haematological malignancies.

Adherence to a Mediterranean Diet Is Inversely Associated with Anxiety and Stress but Not Depression: A Cross-Sectional Analysis of Community-Dwelling Older Australians. Nutrients 2024; 16:366. [PMID: 38337651 PMCID: PMC10857277 DOI: 10.3390/nu16030366] [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: 11/20/2023] [Revised: 12/07/2023] [Accepted: 01/23/2024] [Indexed: 02/12/2024] Open
Abstract
Diet quality may be an important modifiable risk factor for mental health disorders. However, these findings have been inconsistent, particularly in older adults. We explored the independent associations between adherence to a Mediterranean diet (MedDiet) and severity of symptoms related to depression, anxiety and stress in older adults from Australia. This was a cross-sectional analysis of older Australians ≥ 60 years. MedDiet adherence was assessed using the Mediterranean Diet Adherence Screener (MEDAS), and the Depression, Anxiety and Stress Scale (DASS-21) was used to assess the severity of negative emotional symptoms. A total of n = 294 participants were included in the final analyses (70.4 ± 6.2 years). Adherence to a MedDiet was inversely associated with the severity of anxiety symptoms (β = -0.118; CI: -0.761, -0.012; p = 0.043) independent of age, gender, BMI, physical activity, sleep, cognitive risk and ability to perform activities of daily living. Furthermore, MedDiet adherence was inversely associated with symptoms of stress (β = -0.151; CI: -0.680, -0.073; p = 0.015) independent of age, gender, BMI, physical activity and sleep. However, no relationship between MedDiet adherence and depressive symptoms was observed. We showed that adherence to a MedDiet is inversely associated with the severity of symptoms related to anxiety and stress but not depression. Exploring these findings with the use of longitudinal analyses and robust clinical trials are needed to better elucidate these findings in older adults.

Health-related quality of life in subjective cognitive decline and mild cognitive impairment: a longitudinal cohort analysis. Alzheimers Res Ther 2023; 15:200. [PMID: 37968734 PMCID: PMC10648708 DOI: 10.1186/s13195-023-01344-0] [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: 05/09/2023] [Accepted: 10/25/2023] [Indexed: 11/17/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Health-related quality of life (HR-QoL) is an important outcome for patients and crucial for demonstrating the value of new treatments. Health utility estimates in subjective cognitive decline (SCD) and mild cognitive impairment (MCI) are limited, especially in biomarker-confirmed populations. Besides, little is known about the longitudinal HR-QoL trajectory. This study aims to provide health utility estimates for SCD and MCI and investigate the QoL trajectory along the disease continuum. METHODS Longitudinal data from 919 SCD and 1336 MCI patients from the MEMENTO cohort were included. SCD was defined as clinical dementia rating (CDR) = 0, and MCI as CDR = 0.5. HR-QoL was measured using the EQ-5D-3L patient-reported instrument. Linear mixed-effect models (LMM) were used to assess the longitudinal change in HR-QoL and identify predictors of these changes. RESULTS Baseline health utilities were 0.84 ± 0.16 and 0.81 ± 0.18, and visual analogue scale (VAS) were 75.8 ± 14.82 and 70.26 ± 15.77 in SCD and MCI. In amyloid-confirmed cases, health utilities were 0.85 ± 0.14 and 0.86 ± 0.12 in amyloid-negative and amyloid-positive SCD, and 0.83 ± 0.17 and 0.84 ± 0.16 in amyloid-negative and amyloid-positive MCI. LMM revealed an annual decline in health utility of - 0.015 (SE = 0.006) and - 0.09 (SE = 0.04) in moderate and severe dementia (P < 0.05). There was a negative association between clinical stage and VAS where individuals with MCI, mild, moderate, and severe dementia were on average 1.695 (SE = 0.274), 4.401 (SE = 0.676), 4.999 (SE = 0.8), and 15.386 (SE = 3.142) VAS points lower than individuals with SCD (P < 0.001). Older age, female sex, higher body mass index, diabetes, cardiovascular history, depression, and functional impairment were associated with poor HR-QoL. Amyloid positivity was associated with an annual decline of - 0.011 (SE = 0.004, P < 0.05) health utility over time. CONCLUSIONS Health utility estimates from this study can be used in economic evaluations of interventions targeting SCD and MCI. Health utility declines over time in moderate and severe dementia, and VAS declines with advancing clinical stages. Amyloid-positive patients show a faster decline in health utility indicating the importance of considering biomarker status in HR-QoL assessments. Future research is needed to confirm the longitudinal relationship between amyloid status and HR-QoL and to examine the level at which depression and IADL contribute to HR-QoL decline in AD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Older adults with different living arrangements may have different mental health statuses and different factors that influence their mental health. The aim of the present study is to investigate the prevalence and determinants of depressive symptoms among community-dwelling older adults in China based on differences in their living arrangements. METHODS Participants were 6,055 older adults from the 2015 China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study. Depressive symptoms and their determinants were evaluated using the 10-item Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale and multivariate logistic regression analysis, respectively. RESULTS The prevalence of depressive symptoms among older adults living alone, as a couple, and with children was 47.8%, 33.2%, and 39.5%, respectively. The common risk factors for depressive symptoms were shorter sleep duration, poorer activities of daily living, and poorer self-rated health. Women, those with lower educational levels, and those suffering from chronic diseases had a higher risk of depressive symptoms among older adults living as a couple and those living with children. Smoking and participation in economic activities were also risk factors of depressive symptoms among older adults living with children and those living alone, respectively. CONCLUSIONS The findings suggest that older adults living as couples had the lowest prevalence of depressive symptoms, while those living alone had the highest prevalence of depressive symptoms. The determinants of depressive symptoms differed by living arrangement; hence, they should be considered in future interventions.

Functional Status of Patients over 65 Years Old Intervened on for a Hip Fracture One Year after the Operation. Healthcare (Basel) 2023; 11:healthcare11101520.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Evaluation of the functional status one year after a hip fracture surgery and the influence of sarcopenia and other clinical factors at the time of admission. METHOD Prospective observational study with 135 patients over 65 years of age. Functional status of basic (modified Katz) and instrumental activities (Lawton and Brody) and walking ability (Functional Ambulation Classification, FAC) was measured on admission, at discharge, and telephonically one year later. The risk or positive screening of sarcopenia (SARC-F) and cognitive status (Pfeiffer), as well as clinical variables, were evaluated. RESULTS 72% of patients are women; 36% have a risk of sarcopenia (Sarc-F ≥ 4), and 43% have moderate-severe cognitive impairment (Pfeiffer ≥ 5). Walking capacity at one year was closer to the values at admission more often in women than in men (0.2 ± 1.3 points vs. 0.9 ± 1.6; p = 0.001), as well as in patients without risk of sarcopenia versus sarcopenic patients (0.3 ± 1.2 points vs. 0.7 ± 1.7; p = 0.001), although their evolution did not show significant differences (p = 0.183). Instrumental activities after one year have not been recovered (1.7 ± 2.5 points; p = 0.032), and patients at risk of sarcopenia showed worse values (1.7 ± 1.9 points vs. 3.7 ± 2.7; p < 0.001) and worse evolution (p = 0.012). The evolution of basic activities varied according to the risk of sarcopenia (0.6 ± 1.4 points vs. 1.4 ± 2.1; p = 0.008). CONCLUSIONS Functional status at one year is related to the functional status at admission, the positive screening of sarcopenia, sex, and cognitive impairment of the patient. Knowing at the time of admission an estimate of the functional status at one year will help to reinforce the individual treatment of patients with a worse prognosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Individual-level social capital is an important determinant of older adults' long-term care needs; however, there is scant evidence regarding community-level social capital. Therefore, we investigated the association between community-level social capital and the prevalence of the need for long-term care among older adults. METHODS Between January and February 2018, a cross-sectional survey was conducted among all older adults (n = 13,558) aged 65 to 74 years in a rural municipality in Japan (total population, n = 72,833). A self-reported questionnaire was used to identify community-level social capital, comprising civic participation, social cohesion, and reciprocity. A multilevel logistic regression analysis was performed to estimate the odds ratios of the need for long-term care and a decline in social activity competence as assessed by instrumental activities of daily living. For the analysis, the community levels were divided into 76 voting districts and adjusted for daily life, lifestyle, socioeconomic status, health conditions, and the three social capital subscale scores at the individual level. RESULTS After adjusting for the covariates, we observed a tendency that a higher community level of reciprocity was associated with a lower prevalence of long-term care needs (OR: 0.86, 95% confidence interval: 0.75-1.00), whereas a high community level of social cohesion was associated with a significantly reduced decline in instrumental activities of daily living (OR per standard deviation increase: 0.87, 95% confidence interval: 0.79-0.96). No significant association was found with civic participation. Similarly, individual-level social capital was associated with the need for long-term care and decline in instrumental activities of daily living. CONCLUSIONS Our findings suggest that good community-level reciprocity or social cohesion as well as good individual social capital status may help prevent the need for long-term care among older adults.

Memory performance mediates the relationship between depression and independence in instrumental activities of daily living among community-dwelling older adults: Evidence from the China Family Panel Study. Geriatr Nurs 2023; 50:1-6.

Abstract
Our objective was to examine the link between depression and independence in the instrumental activities of daily living (IADLs) and to explore the mediating role of memory performance through a cross-sectional analysis of a nationally representative sample of community-dwelling older adults in China. In total, 3730 respondents age ≥ 60 (51.7% males) from the 2020 survey of the China Family Panel Study (CFPS) constituted the study sample. Their depressive symptoms, memory performance, and independence in the IADLs were measured. Based on the descriptive statistics, bivariate correlation analysis and bootstrapping mediation analysis were conducted. As hypothesized, independence in the IADLs was negatively related to depression, while it was positively associated with memory performance. Moreover, after controlling for demographic factors, memory performance was demonstrated to be a partial mediator between depression and independence in the IADLs. These findings support the development of clinical interventions which prevent disability or maintain the physical functioning of older adults through alleviating depression and enhancing memory performance.

Abstract
Poor cognitive function is associated with reduced functional independence, risk of institutionalization and reduced health-related quality of life. The ability to independently perform instrumental activities of daily living (iADLs) is compromised in patients with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) or dementia. Emerging evidence suggests that adherence to a Mediterranean diet (MedDiet), may play an important protective role against cognitive decline and dementia risk, whilst preserving functional status. This cross-sectional study aimed to explore the independent associations between MedDiet adherence, cognitive risk, and functional status in community-dwelling older adults living in Australia. MedDiet adherence was assessed using the Mediterranean Diet Adherence Screener (MEDAS); a modified Lawton's iADL scale was used for the assessment of functional status and risk of cognitive impairment was assessed using the AD8 dementia screening intervention. A total of n = 294 participants were included in the final analyses (70.4 ± 6.2 years; Females, n = 201; Males, n = 91; n = 2 unspecified). Adherence to a MedDiet was positively associated with functional ability (β = 0.172; CI: 0.022, 0.132; P = 0.006) independent of age, gender, Body Mass Index (BMI), smoking status, sleep duration, physical activity duration, diabetes status, and level of education. Furthermore, MedDiet adherence was inversely associated with cognitive risk (β = -0.134; CI: -0.198, -0.007; P = 0.035) independent of all covariates. However, our sensitivity analyses further showed that adherence to a MedDiet was not associated with cognitive risk in older adults free from cognitive impairment. We showed that adherence to a MedDiet is associated with healthy physical and cognitive aging. Nevertheless, exploration of these findings in larger cohorts, using longitudinal analyses and controlling for important confounders to ascertain the direction of the relationship is warranted.

Abstract
Introduction Parkinson's disease (PD) is associated with a progressive inability to accomplish essential activities of daily living (ADL) resulting in a loss of autonomy and quality of life. Accurate measurement of ADL in PD is important to monitor disease progression and optimize care. Despite its relevance, it is still unclear which measurement instruments are the most suitable for evaluating ADL in people with PD. Objective To identify and critically appraise which measurement instruments have been used to assess ADL in PD. Methods A systematic review was conducted using the databases CENTRAL, MEDLINE, and PEDro from their inception to October 2021 to identify all observational and experimental studies conducted in PD or atypical parkinsonism that included an ADL assessment. Titles and abstracts were screened independently by two authors. The clinimetric properties of the measurement instruments were assessed, and the instruments were classified as "recommended," "suggested," or "listed." Results A total of 129 articles were included, with 37 measurement instruments used. The Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS), the Schwab & England ADL scale (S&E scale), the Movement Disorder Society Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (MDS-UPDRS), the Barthel Index, the Lawton-Brody Instrumental Activities of Daily Living Scale, the Functional Independence Measure (FIM) and the Alzheimer's Disease Cooperative Study - ADL (ADCS-ADL) scale were the seven most frequently cited measurement instruments. Of these, only two included an assessment of basic and instrumental ADL. Conclusion MDS-UPDRS and the S&E scale were the only two scales that could be classified as recommended. For the MDS-UPDRS, either the full version or only Part II, which is focused on ADL, can be used. Future studies should explore the use of wearable devices to assess ADL remotely and more continuously.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Participation in social activities has positive health effects among older adults; however, few studies have investigated the association between social activity and depressive symptoms among Chinese older adults. This study aimed to examine the association between social activities and depressive symptoms among older adults in China regarding urban-rural differences. METHODS Data were collected from 8255 respondents from the 2015 China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study. Depressive symptoms were assessed using the 10-item Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale. Type and frequency of social activities were collected via a questionnaire. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to explore the relationship between social activities and depressive symptoms. RESULTS In our study, the prevalence of depressive symptoms was lower in urban older adults compared with rural older adults (25.2% vs. 40.7%). After adjustment for all covariates, our results indicated that interacting with friends almost weekly or almost daily (almost weekly: OR = 0.568, 95%CI: 0.337-0.955; almost daily: OR = 0.664, 95%CI: 0.453-0.973) and participating in community organizations almost daily were inversely associated with depressive symptoms among urban older adults (OR = 0.107, 95%CI: 0.012-0.952). Interacting with friends almost daily (OR = 0.847, 95% CI: 0.720-0.996) and participation in hobby groups either almost every week or almost daily were both inversely associated with depressive symptoms among rural older adults (almost weekly: OR = 0.683, 95%CI: 0.518-0.902; almost daily: OR = 0.567, 95%CI: 0.440-0.731). Participating in sports groups almost daily was inversely associated with depressive symptoms among both urban and rural older adults (urban: OR = 0.664, 95%CI: 0.445-0.991; rural: OR = 0.506, 95%CI: 0.366-0.700). CONCLUSIONS Our findings indicated that there is a cross-sectional association between participation in social activities and depressive symptoms among Chinese older adults, and the association differed between urban and rural older adults. This implies that participation in social activities may be significant for alleviating depressive symptoms of older adults. When encouraging older adults to participate in social activities, the government should consider urban-rural differences and take effective measures accordingly. Longitudinal studies are needed to examine the causal relationships between social activities and depressive symptoms among older adults.
