“…Our findings were similar to those of previous studies that reported a correlation between a poor SRH and a high hs-CRP level ( [7][8][9]22]. In a study of 4049 respondent older adults without significant cognitive deficit by Szybalska et al [23], a worse SRH was associated with increased interleukin-6 (IL-6) and CRP levels. Leshem-Rubinow et al [7] analyzed the correlations between SRH and the inflammation-sensitive biomarkers hs-CRP and fibrinogen in 13,773 healthy individuals and observed higher biomarker levels in the group with the lowest SRH level; hs-CRP showed a correlation in both males and females, but fibrinogen only showed a correlation in males.…”

Background No studies have investigated the association between self-rated health (SRH) and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) in South Koreans. This study explored the association and analyzed any sex differences.Method Using data from the 2015-2017 Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, we analyzed the association between SRH and high group (>1.0 mg/L) in 14,544 Koreans aged ≥19 years who responded to the SRH survey and who had hs-CRP test results. Results The percentage of having a very poor to poor SRH was higher in the high hs-CRP level group (22.4%) than in the low level group (17.66%). Among males, the risk of a high hs-CRP level increased with worse SRH (adjusted for confounders; P for trend <0.001). After adjusting for all confounders, including chronic diseases, males with a very poor SRH showed higher odds ratio (OR) for high group than those with a very good SRH (fully adjusted OR, 1.74; 95% confidence interval, 1.04-2.90). Significant correlations were absent among females. Conclusions A poor SRH was correlated with low-grade inflammation (high hs-CRP level) among male Korean adults. The findings could be useful for developing health improvement programs and in goal setting at a national scale.

Background: No studies have investigated the association between self-rated health (SRH) and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) levels in South Koreans. We explored this association and analyzed differences between sexes. Methods: Using cross-sectional data from the 2015 –2017 Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, we analyzed the association between SRH and high hs-CRP levels (>1.0 mg/L) in 14,544 Koreans aged ≥19 years who responded to the SRH survey and had hs-CRP test results. Differences in sociodemographic factors were analyzed using Pearson’s chi-square test for categorical variables or the Mann-Whitney U test for continuous variables. Multiple logistic regression analysis was used to measure the association between hs-CRP levels and SRH according to sex while adjusting for other possible confounders. Results: The percentage of having a very poor to poor SRH was higher in the high hs-CRP level group (22.4%) than in the low hs-CRP level group (17.66%). Among men, the risk of a high hs-CRP level increased with worse SRH (adjusted for confounders; P for trend <0.001). After adjusting for all confounders, including chronic diseases, men with a very poor SRH showed a higher odds ratio (OR) for high hs-CRP levels than those with a very good SRH (fully adjusted OR, 1.74; 95% confidence interval, 1.04-2.90). Significant correlations were absent among women. Conclusions: A poor SRH was correlated with low-grade inflammation (high hs-CRP level) among male Korean adults. The findings could be useful for developing health improvement programs and in goal setting at a national scale.

“…Among elderly people who reported a diagnosis of cancer, about 17% considered their health bad or very bad at the time of the research, with a higher frequency observed in those with a diagnosis time of less than 5 years (23.5% versus 11.4%), regardless of gender, age and the presence of other chronic diseases. Self-rated health is an indicator that integrates the individual's biological, psychological and social perception, reflecting the presence of functional limitations and quality of life, in addition to being considered a predictor of mortality 23,24 . Still, it is considered an important indicator of the impact of the disease on individual well-being 24 .…”

Resumo Objetivo: Estimar a prevalência de diagnóstico médico de câncer em idosos, descrever os tipos de câncer, as limitações em atividades cotidianas, autopercepção da saúde e a relação com doenças/condições crônicas. Métodos: Estudo transversal de base populacional com dados de idosos (n=11.177) que participaram da Pesquisa Nacional de Saúde (PNS/2013). Estimaram-se as prevalências e os respectivos intervalos de confiança de 95%. Resultados: A média de idade foi de 69,8 anos (IC95%:69,5-70,1) e 56,4% (IC95%:54,8-58,0) eram mulheres. O diagnóstico de câncer foi referido por 5,6% (IC95%:5,0-6,4) dos idosos, sendo maior entre homens (7,1%) que em mulheres (4,7%; p<0,001). Os três principais tipos de câncer foram, nos homens: próstata (52,4%;IC95%:43,5-61,2), pele (13,9%;IC95%:9,1-20,6) e intestino (10,6%;IC95%:4,9-21,5); nas mulheres: mama (46,9%;IC95%:40,6-53,3), pele (17,3%;IC95%:14,2-20,8) e intestino (9,8%;IC95%:6,5-14,5). Cerca de 67% foram diagnosticados após os 60 anos, 33,0% referiram limitação decorrente da doença e 16,8% (IC95%:12,4-22,4) autoavaliaram sua saúde como ruim/muito ruim. A presença de limitação foi cerca de 31% maior naqueles com diagnóstico mais recente e a autopercepção da saúde foi pior naqueles com diagnóstico inferior a 5 anos. Nos idosos com câncer, observaram-se maiores prevalências de hipertensão arterial, doenças do coração, depressão e doenças respiratórias crônicas (p<0,05). Conclusão: Os achados mostram a prevalência de câncer nos idosos brasileiros, com diferenças entre os sexos, bem como a distribuição dos principais tipos e a idade do primeiro diagnóstico. Destaca-se a importância da hipertensão arterial, doenças do coração, depressão e doenças respiratórias, além de outras condições de vida e saúde dos idosos no cuidado oncogeriátrico.

Self-rated health and its association with all-cause mortality of older adults in Poland: The PolSenior project

Abstract: SRH was associated with mortality in both genders. After adjustment for age, this relationship was maintained in respondents with poor compared to good SRH. Inclusion of potential confounders demonstrated that SRH was an independent predictor of mortality only in women.
