Longitudinal Changes and Correlates of 24‐Hour Movement Behaviors in Brazilian Older Adults
BACKGROUND: The 24 h movement behavior cycle (24hMB) has been increasingly studied in older adults. However, longitudinal changes in the 24hMB cycle and its potential correlates are poorly understood, particularly in low to middle-income countries. This study investigated longitudinal changes of 24hMB and their potential correlates in Brazilian older adults. METHODS: The 24hMB was assessed in community-dwelling older adults aged 60-80 years using…
Can step count be used to identify older adults with high sedentary time and low moderate‐to‐vigorous physical activity
Daily step count appears to be a practical, simple metric for identifying community-dwelling older adults with concomitant high ST and low MVPA, indicative of unhealthier movement behavior, who have a poorer cardiometabolic profile
International Exercise Recommendations in Older Adults (ICFSR)
The human ageing process is universal, ubiquitous and inevitable. Every physiological function is being continuously diminished. There is a range between two distinct phenotypes of ageing, shaped by patterns of living - experiences and behaviours, and in particular by the presence or absence of physical activity (PA) and structured exercise (i.e., a sedentary lifestyle). Ageing and a sedentary lifestyle are associated with declines in muscle func…
Older adults’ domestic green environments
Greenspaces and access to nature are widely accepted as being beneficial to older adult’s health and well-being. Less well known are the natural elements in their domestic outdoor environments that are used and preferred. In this paper, we identify those most preferred by 72 older adults in New Zealand living in family homes, downsized homes and rest homes. Through the use of geographic information system mapping and photos, we assessed how these…
The impacts of ageing on connection to nature
Vitamin D status and its predictors in New Zealand aged-care residents eligible for a government-funded universal vitamin D supplementation programme
Objective The provision of prescribed vitamin D to all aged-care residents has been implemented in New Zealand as part of a government-led falls prevention programme. To our knowledge, there has been no evaluation of this universal programme on vitamin D status and functional and health outcomes. Thus, we aimed to determine 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) concentrations and their predictors in aged-care residents across the country and to investiga…
