BACKGROUND: The purpose of this research was to stratify the level of frailty to examine the risk factors associated with reversible cognitive frailty (RCF) and potentially reversible cognitive frailty (PRCF) in nursing homes to provide a basis for hierarchical management in different stages of frailty. METHODS: The study was a cross-sectional study conducted from September to November 2022; 504 people were selected by stratified random sampling after convenience selection from the Home for the Aged Guangzhou...

BACKGROUND: This study set out to investigate the relationship between serum neurofilament light chain (NFL), glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), and various non-motor symptoms (NMSs) in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). METHODS: The study included 37 healthy controls (HCs) and 51 PD patients. Clinical assessments of PD symptoms were conducted for all PD patients. The NMSS was utilised to evaluate the NMS burden (NMSB) in individuals. Based on the severity of NMSB, we further categorised the PD group into two subgroups: mild-moderate NMSB group and severe-very severe NMSB group...

BACKGROUND: Social isolation (SI) was recently identified as a significant public health issue in the United States. Consequently, several studies on the association between SI and mental health were conducted. However, few studies have considered the duration and intensity of SI. In the present study, a longitudinal analysis was conducted to determine the effect of the intensity of persistent SI on the mental health status of late middle-aged and older Koreans. METHODS: After excluding missing values, data on 6200 participants were analyzed using the group-based trajectory model (GBTM) from the first to fifth Korean Longitudinal Study of Ageing (KLoSA) to categorise the SI trajectory (SIT)...

BACKGROUND: Given the potential harms of dysphagia after stroke, we noticed the possibility of non-invasive brain stimulation treatments in the management process. METHODS: The meta-analysis search for articles published before May 2023 in databases. We used STATA 12.0 software to compute the standard mean difference (SMD) and 95% confidence intervals (CI). RESULTS: The study showed a greater improvement in swallowing function in post-stroke dysphagia given transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) immediately after treatment, compared to those given sham tDCS (SMD = 2...

JOURNAL ARTICLE

BACKGROUND: The prevalence of cognitive decline is high among nursing home older adults. Pain is a vital factor in cognitive function. Furthermore, the current literature lacks the complex association between pain, frailty, depressive symptoms, and cognitive function. The aim of this study was to explore the chain mediating roles of frailty and depressive symptoms in the association between pain and cognitive function among nursing home older adults. METHODS: This is a population-based cross-sectional study, conducted in China, of 210 nursing home older adults aged 64-98 years old, who completed the measurements of sociodemographic information, pain, frailty, depressive symptoms, and cognitive function...

BACKGROUND: The ApoE genotype and neuropsychiatric symptoms (NPS) are known risk factors for cognitive decline in older adults. However, the interaction between these variables is still unclear. The aim of this study was to determine the association between the presence of the ApoE ε4 allele and the occurrence of NPS in older adults without dementia. METHODS: In this cross-sectional investigation we determined the apolipoprotein E (ApoE) genotype of 74 older adults who were either cognitively normal (20...

BACKGROUND: The purpose of this study was to investigate the longitudinal relationship between different levels of cognitively stimulating leisure activity (CSLA) participation and different levels of positive and negative affect among older adults with mild cognitive impairment (MCI).

BACKGROUND: Gesture imitation, a simple tool for assessing visuospatial/visuoconstructive functions, is reportedly useful for screening and diagnosing dementia. However, gesture imitation performance in healthy older adults is largely unknown, as are the factors associated with lower performance. To address these unknowns, we examined the gesture imitation performance of a large number of community-dwelling older adults aged ≥65 years in Arao City, Kumamoto Prefecture (southern Japan)...

BACKGROUND: Physical activity significantly contributes to older adults' physical and mental health, suggesting that physical activity could enhance healthy life expectancy. Despite its importance for adults aged 75 and older, activity levels among a large proportion of individuals aged 75 and older in Japan do not meet the recommended levels of physical activity, indicating a need for specific strategies tailored to this age group. This study aimed to develop a screening tool that measures daily activities promoting physical activity among older adults and assessed its content and face validity...

We aimed to synthesise information related to the incidence of depression and depressive symptoms (DDS) in a community-dwelling older adult population at a global level. In this systematic review, we included articles with a cohort study design that evaluated the incidence of depression or depressive symptoms in older adults aged 60 years or more in a community-dwelling environment. Six databases were used: Web of Science, PubMed, Scopus, LILACS, SciELO, and Cochrane, and the entire selection process was independently performed by peers...

BACKGROUND: Delirium is a common and serious neuropsychiatric disorder. The prognosis of delirium in older patients living at home has not been studied often before. The aim of this study is to examine the prognosis of delirium in patients attending a memory clinic of a psychiatric hospital. METHOD: The study population consisted of 85 outpatients diagnosed with delirium between October 2013 and October 2014. Seventeen patients had already been diagnosed as having dementia...

BACKGROUND: Metacognitive dysfunctions have been implicated in several neuropsychiatric conditions, while cognitive performances have been evaluated by measuring cognitive domains in older adults. This study investigated a relationship between metacognitive processes and cognitive performances in older adults. METHODS: A sociodemographic form, the Standardised Mini-Mental State Examination (SMMSE) and the Metacognitions Questionnaire-30 (MCQ-30) were applied to participants aged >65 years who had no significant cognitive decline defined as normal or with mild cognitive impairment...

BACKGROUND: Elder abuse as an important public health issue is associated in the literature with various physical and psychological symptoms. The aim of the study is to determine the relationship between elder abuse and depression, anxiety, and stress in the elderly living in the community. METHOD: The cross-sectional study was completed with 729 older people. Data were collected through a face-to-face interview and a survey form. The Geriatric Mistreatment Scale (GMS) was used to evaluate elder abuse and the Depression Anxiety Stress Scale-21 (DASS-21) was used to evaluate depression, anxiety, and stress...

BACKGROUND: Early diagnosis of dementia is important for both initiation of non-pharmacological activities to slow cognitive decline as well as the development of disease-modifying drugs; however, it appears there may be a tendency for formal diagnosis to be delayed. Since the current status of diagnosis in Japan is unclear, we conducted a survey with family caregivers of patients with dementia using questionnaires and interviews to investigate the factors regarding the dementia diagnosis process in Japan...

REVIEW
Qingyu Cao, Peiliang Dong, Hua Han
Since the report of Alzheimer's disease (AD) in 1907, it has garnered widespread attention due to its intricate pathogenic mechanisms, significant impact on patients' lives, and the substantial burden it places on society. Presently, effective treatments for AD remain elusive. Recent pharmacological studies on the traditional East Asian herb, Evodia rutaecarpa, have revealed that the bioactive alkaloid components within it can ameliorate AD-related cognitive impairments and neurological damage through various pathways, including anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and anti-acetylcholinesterase activities...

BACKGROUND: Social isolation and loneliness are public health problems and are related to poor physical and mental health in older persons, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. We investigated the influences of social isolation and loneliness on mood, cognition and sleep quality in older persons.
