Sedentary Behaviour and Its Correlates Among Older Adults in Malaysia

Healthcare, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 13(2), P. 160 - 160

Published: Jan. 15, 2025

Background: Sedentary behaviors (SBs), which are low-energy, wakeful activities performed in a sitting, reclining, or lying posture, independently associated with numerous adverse health outcomes, including mental disorders, non-communicable diseases, and an increased risk of mortality. This study investigated associations between sociodemographic characteristics, lifestyle factors, health, nutritional status, social support, functional limitations, SB among older persons Malaysia. Methods: Data from 3977 individuals aged 60 years above, extracted the National Health Morbidity Survey (NHMS) 2018, were analyzed using complex samples logistic regression. Results: The prevalence sedentary behavior, defined as sitting reclining for 8 more hours per day, surveyed population was 23.2%. Older age (≥75 years) significantly higher odds (AORs 1.58 to 2.76, p < 0.001 = 0.001). Unemployment (AOR 1.32, 0.020) indigenous Sabah Sarawak ethnicity 2.48, 0.007) also linked SB.

Empowering Fall Prevention Through Integrated Lifestyle Medicine Strategies—From Recognition of Fall Risks to Implementation of Prevention of Falls for all in Practice

American Journal of Lifestyle Medicine, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: unknown

Published: Jan. 29, 2025

Falls remain the leading cause of unintentional injuries across all age groups, prompting many emergency room visits. The annual estimated cost associated with falls is believed to exceed 100 billion dollars. In addressing this trend, health professional team members emerge as key players and can assume a crucial role in bridging gap between lifestyle medicine fall prevention. By imparting strategies aligned 6 pillars medicine, these professionals educate individuals on risk factors, assess risk, offer activities mitigate likelihood future falls. This collaborative approach empowers take immediate informed action, fostering proactive stance against prevalent issue fall-related injuries.

ABSTRACT Introduction The benefits of exercise for older adults are well known; however, most do not meet recommendations regular physical activity. Alternative methods improving activity important and can be effective at mobility. This analysis evaluated if participation in a Whole Health companion dog adoption program supported changes balance gait performance veterans. role time veteran spent being physically active together (i.e., walking) on observed was also explored. Materials Methods Veterans were paired with dogs function, self-reported activity, quality an instrumented 6-minute walk test assessed baseline after 1 year participation. Physical captured by accelerometers worn both the dog. Paired samples t-tests used to evaluate change measures from follow-up. Simple linear regressions explore function. Participants completed informed consent before IRB-approved study procedures (HP-97664; 1651218). Results Fourteen veterans (71.4% male, 62.3 ± 12.0 years) participated program.
