Prevalence and population attributable fractions of potentially modifiable risk factors for dementia in Canada
Increased prevalence of loneliness and associated risk factors during the Covid-19 pandemic
As has been noted for various other outcomes, the pandemic did not impact all subgroups of the population in the same way with respect to loneliness. Our results suggest that public health measures aimed at reducing loneliness during a pandemic should incorporate multifactor interventions fostering positive health behaviours and consider targeting those at high risk for loneliness
World guidelines for falls prevention and management for older adults
BACKGROUND: falls and fall-related injuries are common in older adults, have negative effects on functional independence and quality of life and are associated with increased morbidity, mortality and health related costs. Current guidelines are inconsistent, with no up-to-date, globally applicable ones present. OBJECTIVES: to create a set of evidence- and expert consensus-based falls prevention and management recommendations applicable to older a…
Can “Rover” help with mental health during the Covid-19 pandemic? Results from the Canadian Longitudinal Study on Aging (CLSA)
COVID-19 has negatively affected the mental health and well-being of adults, and thus it is important to examine potential factors which may influence mental health during the pandemic. We thus examined the association between pet ownership and depression/anxiety symptoms based on mental health disorder status during the COVID-19 pandemic. We included 12,068 cognitively healthy participants (45-86 years at study entry) from the Canadian Longitudi…
Symptoms of depression and anxiety, and unmet healthcare needs in adults during the Covid-19 pandemic
The presence of depression and anxiety symptoms were strongly associated with perceived unmet healthcare needs during the COVID-19 pandemic. Interventions to improve healthcare access for adults with depression and anxiety during the pandemic may be necessary
Establishing the minimal clinically important difference of the EQ-5D-3L in older adults with a history of falls
Baseline health-related quality of life predicts falls
Levels of Depression and Anxiety Among Informal Caregivers During the Covid-19 Pandemic
The findings shed light on the change in mental health among informal caregivers during the outset of the pandemic. The demonstrated associations between studied variables and mental health among informal caregivers provide empirical evidence for intervention programs aiming to support caregivers, particularly those who are female, and providing intensive care at home
Biobehavioral Aspects of the Covid-19 Pandemic
OBJECTIVE: This review highlights the scope and significance of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic with a focus on biobehavioral aspects and critical avenues for research. METHODS: A narrative review of the published research literature was undertaken, highlighting major empirical findings emerging during the first and second waves of the COVID-19 pandemic. RESULTS: Interactions among biological, behavioral, and societal processes w…
Cohort Profile
The Canadian Longitudinal Study on Aging (CLSA) was established to understand and address the needs of an aging population.1–3 Overall aims are to examine aging as a dynamic process; to investigate the inter-relationship among intrinsic and extrinsic factors from mid-life to older age; and to capture the transitions, trajectories and profiles of aging.4 A central objective in creating the CLSA was to provide national infrastructure and build capa…
Are the EQ-5D-3L and the Icecap-O responsive among older adults with impaired mobility? Evidence from the Vancouver Falls Prevention Cohort Study
A comparison of the Icecap-O with EQ-5D in a falls prevention clinical setting
