Social isolation and loneliness have been recognized as important psychosocial factors affecting human health. We aimed to examine the relationships of social with likelihood healthy aging among older women men. The prospective study included 13,782 female 11,838 male participants who were aged 64 years or had no major chronic diseases during recruitment UK Biobank (2006-2010). All eligible survive age 80 before latest follow-up (December 2021). Healthy was defined survival without diseases. Multivariable logistic regression models used evaluate associations isolation, their combination aging. A total 9130 (58.77%) 6406 men (41.23%) achieved After adjusting for race/ethnicity, associated a significantly 20% 14% lower men, respectively, whereas both sexes similar but statistically non-significant. Among women, association between varied by status (P interaction = 0.031), an inverse limiting socially isolated (OR 0.61; 95% CI: 0.43-0.87).

Background Depressive symptoms are established risk factors for various health outcomes. However, previous studies assessed depressive at a single time point, neglecting individual variations over time. Aims To identify trajectories through repeated measures and examine their associations with cardiovascular disease (CVD), cancer mortality. Methods This study included 20 634 UK Biobank participants free of CVD baseline two or more assessments during 2006–2016. Group-based trajectory modelling identified trajectories. Incident CVD, mortality were followed up until 2021 linked registries. Results Six identified: no (n=6407), mild-stable (n=11 539), moderate-stable (n=2183), severe-decreasing (n=206), moderate-increasing (n=177) severe-stable (n=122). During median follow-up 5.5 years, 1471 cases, 1275 cases 503 deaths documented. Compared the trajectory, mild-stable, exhibited higher risk, hazard ratios (HRs) (95% CIs) 1.19 (1.06 to 1.34), 1.32 (1.08 1.34) 2.99 (1.85 4.84), respectively. Moderate-increasing associated risks, HRs 2.27 (1.04 4.93) 3.26 (1.55 6.88), was not risks adverse We did find significant between any cancer. Conclusions Trajectories related stable increasing symptoms, but severe initial assessment decreasing follow-up, Alleviating onset may mitigate risks.

Introduction: Depression is a common and severe comorbidity among individuals with heart failure (HF). Up to third of all HF patients are depressed, an even higher proportion have symptoms depression. Aim: In this review, we evaluate the relationship between depression, explain pathophysiology epidemiology both diseases their relationship, highlight novel diagnostic therapeutic options for Materials Methods: This narrative review involved keyword searches PubMed Web Science. Review search terms included [“Depression” OR “Depres*” “major depr*”] AND [“Heart Failure” “HF” “HFrEF” “HFmrEF” “HFpEF” “HFimpEF”] in fields. Studies met following criteria: (A) published peer-reviewed journal; (B) described impact depression on vice versa; (C) were opinion papers, guidelines, case studies, descriptive randomized control trials, prospective retrospective reviews, systematic reviews. Results: emergent risk factor strongly relates worse clinical outcomes. share multiple pathways, including platelet dis-reactivity, neuroendocrine malfunction, inappropriate inflammation, tachi-arrhythmias, frailty social community setting. Existing guidelines urge evaluation patients, numerous screening tools available. ultimately diagnosed based DSM-5 criteria.

Abstract Background Although social isolation has been identified as a risk factor for cognitive impairment, its potential impact relative to other documented factors not comprehensively quantified, leading underestimation in public health strategies. We aimed address this gap by quantifying the contribution of decline context factors. Methods Social was evaluated using modified Network Index (SNI) and function through Delayed Word Recall Test (DWRT) Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE). Linear logistic regression models were employed analyze associations between outcomes, adjusting demographic health-related Additionally, XGBoost algorithm with SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP) used quantify importance predictors. Results A total 25,981 participants recruited from 2003 2008. The mean age 62.0 years, 28.4% being men. Higher significantly associated lower DWRT (β=-0.15; 95% CI: -0.21 -0.09) MMSE scores (β=-0.34; -0.48 -0.19), higher odds memory impairment (OR = 1.27; 1.15 1.40) poor 1.56; 1.23 1.99). analysis ranked fifth most important predictor (SHAP value 0.175) eighth 0.0133).

This used data from four prospective cohorts: National Health Aging Trends Study (NHATS), English Longitudinal of Ageing (ELSA), China Retirement (CHARLS), Chinese Healthy Longevity Survey (CLHLS). Individuals (including osteoarthritis rheumatoid arthritis) these cohorts were included. assessed using self-reported questionnaires. Cox proportional hazards regression models conducted evaluate associations. At baseline, a total 16,035 individuals (3872 NHATS, 3259 ELSA, 5645 CHARLS, CLHLS) increased risk meta-analysis (hazard ratio [HR] 1.42, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.26–1.59), individual (NHATS: HR 1.53, CI 1.19–1.97; ELSA: 1.31, 1.02–1.67; CLHLS: 1.50, 1.36–1.64) after being adjusted for confounder factors. Additionally, increasing score, also (HR 1.19, 1.15–1.24), as well 1.22, 1.14–1.30; 1.13–1.26).
