  • Cultural threads of memory

    Open AccessJacqueline Guzman, Yuliana Soto et al.ARTICLEEthnicity and Health2026Referencias: 3

    Spanish-speaking middle-aged and older Latinos had limited knowledge about AD/ADRD and expressed concerns about its impact on the Latino community. Findings highlight the need to create culturally tailored Spanish-language educational materials that emphasize the role of PA and nutrition in reducing AD/ADRD risk. Furthermore, future studies should address cultural and structural barriers to behavior change, including familism, low socioeconomic s…

  • Accelerometer-Measured Latent Physical Activity Profiles and Neurocognition Among Middle-Aged and Older Hispanic/Latino Adults in the Hispanic Community Health Study/Study of Latinos (HCHS/SOL)

    Priscilla M Vásquez, Wassim Tarraf et al.ARTICLEThe Journals of Gerontology…2022Referencias: 2

    We found no consistent evidence to link accelerometry-measured MVPA profiles to neurocognitive function. Research to better characterize the role of high occupational MVPA in relation to neurocognition among Hispanic/Latino adults are needed

  • Participation of people living with disabilities in physical activity

    Open AccessKathleen A Martin Ginis, Hidde P van der Ploeg et al.ARTICLEThe Lancet2021

    Approximately 1·5 billion people worldwide live with a physical, mental, sensory, or intellectual disability, about 80% of which are in low-income and middle-income countries. This Series paper provides a global overview of the prevalence, benefits, and promotion policies for physical activity for people living with disabilities (PLWD). PLWD are 16-62% less likely to meet physical activity guidelines and are at higher risk of serious health probl…

  • The Association of Stress, Metabolic Syndrome, and Systemic Inflammation With Neurocognitive Function in the Hispanic Community Health Study/Study of Latinos and Its Sociocultural Ancillary Study

    Open AccessMaría J Marquine, Linda Gallo et al.ARTICLEThe Journals of Gerontology…2021Citada por: 1Referencias: 1

    These cross-sectional analyses suggest that stress appraisal, MetS, and systemic inflammation may be targets to reduce neurocognitive dysfunction among Hispanics/Latinos

  • A systematic review of physical activity and quality of life and well-being

    Open AccessDavid X Marquez, Susan Aguiñaga et al.ARTICLETranslational Behavioral Medicine2020

    Maintaining or improving quality of life (QoL) and well-being is a universal goal across the lifespan. Being physically active has been suggested as one way to enhance QoL and well-being. In this systematic review, conducted in part for the 2018 U.S. Health and Human Services Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans Scientific Advisory Committee Report, we examined the relationship between physical activity (PA) and QoL and well-being experienc…

  • Trajectories of Aging Among U.S. Older Adults

    Open AccessWassim Tarraf, Gail A Jensen et al.ARTICLEThe Journals of Gerontology…2018Citada por: 3Referencias: 3

    Controlling for lifefcourse factors USB-H and FB-H have equal or higher likelihood for "high morbidity" and "cognitive unhealthy" classifications, respectively, relative to NHWs. Yet, both groups are equally likely of being in the "healthy" group compared to NHWs. These segregations into healthy and unhealthy groups require more research and could contribute to explaining the paradoxical patterns produced when population heterogeneity is not take…
