“…[37][38][39] Physical inactivity was associated with incident disability over a 9-year period among older adults. [40] Our result was in line with these previous studies. IPAQ-SF, which was used to assess physical activity in our study and allows us to assess physical activity and classify it according to three levels, can be easily used in clinical or research settings with lower respondent burden.…”

Background Good sleep durations and physical activity are essential factor for maintaining good health. This study examined whether sleep duration and physical inactivity were associated with incident disability among community-dwelling older adults. Methods A total of 4,372 adults aged ≥ 70 years participated in a baseline assessment. We also assessed self-reported sleep duration and physical activity using the International Physical Activity Questionnaire – Short Form at baseline assessment. We measured monthly incident disability, defined as the onset of being certified for personal support or care as required by Japanese public long-term care insurance over 5 years. The Cox proportional hazard regression analysis estimated hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for incident disability according to long sleep duration (≥ 9 h) and physical inactivity. Results Long sleep duration (HR 1.32, CI 95% 1.05–1.67) and physical inactivity (HR 1.33, CI 95% 1.13–1.57) were associated with incident disability in multivariate analyses. These results were also sustained in the model where both long sleep duration and physical inactivity were simultaneously submitted as independent variables. Furthermore, coexistence of long sleep duration and physical inactivity had higher risk of incident disability than each factor individually (HR 1.69, CI 95% 1.11–2.58), even though the synergistic interaction was mildly effective. Conclusions This study revealed that long sleep duration and physical inactivity were independently associated with the risk of incident disability among older adults. More attention should be paid to both sleep duration and physical activity in order to prevent incident disability.

“…As age increased, participation and autonomy of patients, especially in mobility, were reduced. In the study of Heiland et al, the elderly age group, the activities of daily living (ADL) were declined with age, which is consistent with the results of this study (27). In the study of Khan et al, in the elderly age group, 52.5% of the elderly above the age of 75 and older had disabilities (28), which is consistent with the results of this study.…”

Assessment of Daily Living of Patients with Spinal Cord Injury: A Cross-Sectional Study in Kermanshah

et al. 2021

Background: Spinal cord injuries (SCI) are a variety of chronic diseases that various causes such as trauma may contribute to its onset. One of the problems in these patients is the problem of physical activity and, consequently, daily activities. Objectives: This study aimed to assess daily living of patients with SCI. Methods: In this descriptive cross-sectional study in 2019, 120 patients with SCI in Kermanshah were included in the study using purposive sampling. The instruments used in this study fell into two parts. One part included the demographic characteristics of the SCI patients, and the other part was a questionnaire of the rate of the Impact on Participation and Autonomy questionnaire (IPA-P). Data were analyzed by SPSS software version 16 using descriptive tests such as mean and standard deviation. Results: The result showed there was a significant relationship between demographic characteristics such as education (P < 0.007), time of spinal cord injury (P < 0.01), and income (P = 0.000). Also, the results showed there was a relationship between Autonomy and Participation, and the age of patients and their autonomy and participation decreased with age (P = 0.000, R = 0.72). Most of the patients had severe problems with daily activities. Also, most patients had very poor scores in relation to daily living activities. Conclusions: Considering the low rate of participation and autonomy in patients with SCI, it is suggested to conduct studies aimed at improving their self-care and social participation.

“…In high-income settings, cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of global mortality [10][11][12]. In these countries, a regular medical checkup is well-established in order to control adverse health outcomes, such as CVD risk factors (e.g., hypertension or elevated cholesterol in asymptomatic adults) [13].…”

Motor fitness and flexibility have been linked to several health issues. We aimed to investigate the predictive validity of motor fitness and flexibility tests in relation to health outcomes in adults and older adults. Web of Science and PubMed databases were screened for studies published from inception to November 2020. Two authors systematically searched, evaluated, and extracted data from identified original studies and systematic reviews/meta-analysis. Three levels of evidence were constructed: strong, moderate, and limited/inconclusive evidence. In total, 1182 studies were identified, and 70 studies and 6 systematic reviews/meta-analysis were summarized. Strong evidence indicated that (i) slower gait speed predicts falls and institutionalization/hospitalization in adults over 60 years old, cognitive decline/impairment over 55 years old, mobility disability over 50 years old, disability in instrumental activities of daily living (IADL) over 54 years old, cardiovascular disease risk over 45 years old, and all-cause mortality over 35 years old; (ii) impaired balance predicts falls and disability in IADL/mobility disability in adults over 40 years old and all-cause mortality over 53 years old; (iii) worse timed up&go test (TUG) predicts falls and fear of falling over 40 years old. Evidence supports that slower gait speed, impaired balance, and worse TUG performance are significantly associated with an increased risk of adverse health outcomes in adults.
