Neighborhood racial residential segregation and changes in health or death among older adults
Patients With Worse Mental Health Report More Physical Limitations After Adjustment for Physical Performance
OBJECTIVE: To determine whether mental health scores are associated with self-reported physical limitations after adjustment for physical performance. Patient-reported physical limitations are widely used to assess health status or the impact of disease. However, patients' mental health may influence their reports of their physical limitations. METHODS: Mental health and physical limitations were measured using the SF-36v2 mental health and physi…
Baseline Health, Socioeconomic Status, and 10-Year Mortality Among Older Middle-Aged Americans
Baseline health by age 50 is an important pathway in the association between midlife socioeconomic status and mortality risk to age 70. The continuing effect of low household income on mortality risk was concentrated among respondents reporting excellent to good health at baseline. Socioeconomic disparities in middle-age health continue to limit disability-free life expectancy at older ages
Health Insurance Coverage and the Risk of Decline in Overall Health and Death Among the Near Elderly, 1992–2002
BACKGROUND: Although individuals' health insurance coverage changes frequently, previous analyses have not accounted for changes in insurance coverage over time. OBJECTIVE: We sought to determine the independent association between lack of insurance and the risk of a decline in self-reported overall health and death from 1992 to 2002, accounting for changes in self-reported overall health and insurance coverage. METHODS: We analyzed data from the…
Explaining US racial/ethnic disparities in health declines and mortality in late middle age
Using Tablet PC's in Dental Practice Research
Recent technological developments have greatly simplified data collection, recording, and transfer in studies relying on direct observation or survey methodology, reducing both cost of data collection and the time necessary to prepare data for analysis. The purpose of this communication is to describe how tablet PC computers can be used in data collection, thereby eliminating intermediate data collection steps and chances for error, and thus redu…
Intermittent Lack of Health Insurance Coverage and Use of Preventive Services
Objectives. This study examined the association between intermittent lack of health insurance coverage and use of preventive health services. Methods. Analyses focused on longitudinal data on insurance status and preventive service use among a national sample of US adults who participated in the Health and Retirement Study. Results. Findings showed that, among individuals who obtain insurance coverage after histories of intermittent coverage, rel…
Loss of Health Insurance and the Risk for a Decline in Self-Reported Health and Physical Functioning
BACKGROUND: Millions of Americans are intermittently uninsured. The health consequences of this are not known. SETTING: National survey. PARTICIPANTS: Six thousand seventy-two participants in the Health and Retirement Study (HRS) age 51 to 61 years old with private insurance in 1992. MEASUREMENTS: Loss of insurance coverage between 1992 and 1992 and development of a major decline in overall health or a new physical difficulty between 1994 and 199…
Lack of Health Insurance and Decline in Overall Health in Late Middle Age
BACKGROUND: The number of adults in their 50s and 60s in the United States who do not have health insurance is increasing. This group may be particularly vulnerable to the ill effects of being uninsured. METHODS: We conducted a prospective cohort study using files from the Health and Retirement Study, a national survey of adults who were 51 to 61 years old in 1992. We determined the risks of a major decline in overall health and of the developmen…
Antihypertensive Medication Use in Hispanic Adults
BACKGROUND: Variations in awareness, treatment, and control of hypertension among different racial/ethnic groups have been widely reported. It is unclear whether these differences are explained fully by differences in socioeconomic status, insurance coverage, health status, and health behaviors, or whether these differences indicate that racial/ethnic subgroups have unique barriers to hypertension control. OBJECTIVES: Determine whether there are …
The Association Between Age and Health Literacy Among Elderly Persons
Functional health literacy was markedly lower among older age groups even after adjusting for differences in MMSE performance, newspaper reading frequency, health status, and visual acuity. Future studies should prospectively examine whether functional literacy declines with age and whether this is explained by declines in cognitive function
