For each country we calculated the prevalence of people without severe activity limitations by 5-year age groups and for a first descriptive overview also by three selected 10-year age groups. Time of the survey was 2003. Sample weights were applied to account for non-response and to allow na...
Physical activity has health benefits across the lifespan, yet only 13 % of Canadian older adults are sufficiently active. Results from a number of observational studies indicate that adults display positive preferences for exercising with others of a similar age and same gender, and that intra-...
15,16 Thus, for 2 physical activity groups, the difference in cognition can be calculated with either of the 2 following equations: Where d indicates Cohen d; MT, the mean of the treatment group; MC, the mean of the control group; SD(Y), the pooled within-group SD of the outcome ...
Epilepsy often develops in older adults, but the signs are not always easy to recognize. Seizure activity may be mistaken for effects of aging, such as memory problems, confusion, falls, dizziness, and numbness.DISCHARGE INSTRUCTIONS:Call your local emergency number (911 in the US) if:...

Older adults’ use of nondiscretionary and discretionary services differed significantly among the four groups, and the patterns of HCBS use among these groups were also different. Older adults’ use of nondiscretionary services, such as skilled nursing care, may help them to return to communities ...
Physical activity prevalence across age groups. Full size image PA prevalence trends over time A crucial aspect of investigating trends over time is the comparability of methods. Differences in instruments, cut-off points, PA definitions and domains of activity investigated posed significant challenges ...
Methods: Four groups will be compared in a randomized controlled trial (RCT). These groups are (1) a group with Qigong and art activities as an integrated intervention, (2) a group with art activities intervention, (3) a group with Qigong intervention, and (4) a control group that gets...
We also show how individual characteristics (e.g., age, gender, race) are associated with the likelihood of being in one of these four groups.This measurement strategy provides a foundation for future research into how experts can employ productive activity clusters to understand better well-being...
