Previous research has demonstrated a dose-response relationship between exposure to adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and outcomes in adulthood. Despite widely known associations, previous reviews have primarily focused on younger middle-aged adults exposed ACEs the exclusion of older do not consider potential role resilience for understanding The present scoping review aimed examine extent nature existing literature influence cognitive, physical, mental, social health among adults. We conducted search five electronic databases (CINAHL, MEDLINE, PsycINFO, AgeLine, Scopus) using following keywords: adversity, resilience, aging, limited our inclusion criteria works published English or French after 1998 as Felitti et al. first study describing this year. Of 4926 studies screened, 27 met criteria. Overall, results from included indicated that adversity during was associated with worse Additionally, we found resiliency-related factors (e.g., problem-focused coping strategies) mitigated reduced harms improve Exposure is functioning later Findings indicate need further exploration into ACEs, effects develop better individual- population-level interventions group.

Impact of driver licensing renewal policies on older driver crash involvement and injury rates in 13 states, 2000–2019

Injury Epidemiology, Год журнала: 2025, Номер 12(1)

Опубликована: Янв. 14, 2025

Abstract Background Motor vehicle crashes are the second leading cause of injury death among adults aged 65 and older in U.S., only to falls. A common state-level approach mitigating adult crash risk is implementation driver license renewal policies which vary largely between states data on their effectiveness preventing injuries limited. To fill this gap, aim study examine association state rates. Methods Historical data, policy other relevant demographic were gathered from 13 U.S. (CO, IL, IA, KS, MN, MO, NE, ND, OH, SD, UT, WI, WY) for years 2000 through 2019, inclusive. Main exposures included six policies: period, in-person frequency, vision testing, knowledge on-road drive mandatory physician reporting. The primary outcomes rates per 100,000 population. Results population 19,010,179 crash-involved drivers 40 older. State became less restrictive many over even 75 older, resulting longer times renewals fewer requirements. Loosening every time than was associated with increased rates, 74 (RR = 1.08, 95% CI: 1.01–1.16). duration 1.18, 1.00–1.39). Conclusions Generally, resulted required intervals renewal. However, safety benefits licensing should be carefully weighed against costs well-being quality life following licensure loss. Additional methods assess fitness necessary identify mechanisms behind

The global, regional, and national disease burden of colorectal cancer attributable to low physical activity from 1990 to 2021: an analysis of the Global Burden of Disease Study 2021

This study aims to estimate the spatiotemporal variation in burden of colorectal cancer (CRC) attributable low physical activity (LPA) at global, regional, and national levels from 1990 2021. Cross-sectional study. Annual data on deaths CRC related LPA, age-standardized mortality rate (ASMR), disability-adjusted life years (DALYs), DALYs (ASDR) for 204 countries territories 2021 was extracted Global Health Data Exchange website. They were retrieved by age (5-year groups 25 94 years, 95+ years), gender (male female), Socio-demographic Index (SDI). The association between rates SDI values assessed Spearman's correlation. Between 2021, there nearly a twofold increase globally despite decreases ASMR ASDR (EAPC: -0.82% -0.83%, respectively). However, scale, increased more than half world's territories. Moreover, greater LPA observed older populations, females, those residing regions with an near 0.77. These findings indicate critical need raise awareness about preventive role CRC. Policymakers should prioritize developing implementing strategies that ensure equitable access sports resources, enabling people meet World Organization guidelines.

People–Place Relationships in Regenerative Urban Assemblages: Streetscape Composition and Subjective Well-Being of Older Adults

Land, Год журнала: 2025, Номер 14(4), С. 680 - 680

Опубликована: Март 23, 2025

Cities are undergoing rapid transformations due to global trends such as population aging, climate change, and increasing social diversity. In order address these challenges, urban planning must adopt regenerative approaches that enhance subjective well-being by fostering meaningful relationships between people their surroundings. Streetscapes, which serve accessible landscapes, important, especially for older adults, who depend on local environment mobility constraints. This study examines the composition of streetscapes adults in a Japanese municipality. Using streetscape imagery semantic segmentation, we quantified landscape elements—including vegetation, sky, roads, buildings—within various walking distances from participants’ residences. Subjective was measured using an 11-point Likert scale analyzed ordinal logistic regression. The results revealed specific elements significantly impacted differently across spatial thresholds, showing micro-scale landscapes substantially important promoting among adults. provides evidence-based insights adaptive, inclusive, strategies promote diverse demographic groups.

A core facet of the National Institute on Aging's mission is to identify pharmacological interventions that can promote human healthy aging and long life. As part comprehensive effort toward goal, NIA Division Biology Aging established Caenorhabditis Intervention Testing Program (CITP) in 2013. The C. elegans model (with an ~ 21 day lifespan) has led field dissection longevity genetics offers features allow for relatively rapid testing potential elaboration biological mechanisms engaged by candidate geroprotectants. CITP builds this foundation utilizing a genetically diverse set intervention test strains so "subjects" represent genetic diversity akin between mouse humans. Another distinctive aspect dedicated focus reproducibility outcomes as labs at three independent sites confirm positive outcomes. overall goal robust reproducible pro-longevity affecting cohorts genus. strong Data Collection Center supports data collection dissemination.

How Could We Prevent the Threatening of Falls to the Elderly?

Science Insights, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 44(5), С. 1353 - 1355

Опубликована: Май 26, 2024

Falls among the elderly population can have serious and potentially life-threatening consequences. To prevent such incidents, a multi-faceted approach must be implemented within healthcare system. Firstly, providers should conduct routine screenings for fall risk factors, as muscle weakness balance issues, during regular check-ups. Additionally, implementing exercise programs that focus on improving strength help reduce likelihood of falls. Assessing modifying home environment to remove potential hazards, uneven flooring or inadequate lighting, is also crucial in preventing Furthermore, educating both individuals their caregivers about prevention strategies essential. By combining these efforts with proper medication management vision checks, we effectively decrease threat falls improve overall quality life.
