The effect of frailty on hospitalisation trajectories in adults aged 65 and older across 10 European countries
Evidence indicates an association between frailty and hospitalisation. However, hospital admissions occur repeatedly over time in old age, and most research has only focussed on single hospital admission. This study examines how frailty influences subsequent hospital use— both the risk of hospital admission and the duration of overnight stays—among community-dwelling adults aged 65 years and older across ten European countries over a 14-year peri…
Education-related inequalities in disability during the last years of life
BACKGROUND: Little is known about education-related inequalities in late-life disability. Here, we use individual-level register data on the receipt of the Austrian long-term care allowance (ALTCA) to assess education-related inequalities in the duration of late-life disability. METHODS: In this retrospective mortality follow-back study, we analyse receipt of ALTCA, a universal cash benefit based on physician-assessed disability in activities of …
The mediating effect of after-midnight use of digital media devices on the association of internet-related addictive behavior and insomnia in adolescents
Background There is evidence that overexposure to digital media devices (DMD) can not only lead to addictive patterns of internet use, but also cause insomnia symptoms. The aim of this cross-sectional study among adolescents is to provide an estimate of the prevalence of sleep impairments and to explore the mediating role of after-midnight use of DMD between internet-related addictive behavior (IRAB) and insomnia. Methods 2,712 school students fr…
Acculturation, Adaptation, and Health among Croatian Migrants in Austria and Ireland
Since Croatia joined the European Union, majority of the studies on Croatian emigrants have predominantly addressed the reasons for migration and their future predictions. The primary purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between the sense of coherence, health behavior, acculturation, adaptation, perceived health, and quality of life (QoL) in first-generation Croatian migrants living in Austria and Ireland. Our study is the fi…
Frailty and depression
These findings question the notion that frailty and depression reciprocally influence each other over the course of time, but rather indicate that frailty and depression might be both affected by common causes, in both the short and the long term
Short-Term Disability Fluctuations in Late Life
Short-term disability fluctuations in late life were substantial, were linked to mortality-related processes, and represent a concomitant feature of disability increases in late life
Responses to textual and pictorial cigarette pack health warnings
Although the CPHWs seem to have the potential to promote a change in smoking behaviour, the warnings reached only a rather small group of smokers, while the majority of smokers appeared to remain unaffected by this intervention. Public health policies are challenged to increase the salience of CPHWs and to overcome smokers' denial of detrimental health effects
Impact of socioeconomic position on frailty trajectories in 10 European countries
BACKGROUND: Whether or not, and how, health inequalities change throughout older age is currently under debate. The goal of this study was to assess the net impact of education, occupational class, income and wealth on frailty trajectories among older adults in Continental Europe. METHODS: We modelled frailty index trajectories within a repeated cohort design among the community-dwelling population (50+) in 10 countries, using growth curve models…
Passive Suicide Ideation Among Older Adults in Europe
Cross-national variation in old-age PSI is mostly attributable to individual-level determinants and compositional differences, but there is also evidence for contextual effects of country-level characteristics. Suicide prevention programs should be intensified in high-risk countries and attitudes toward suicide should be addressed in information campaigns
Potentially preventable premature deaths in women and men from the two leading causes of death in Austria, mortality statistics of the nine federal states 2010–2012
Intervention programs as lifestyle modification interventions as well as improvements in health care services provision, should focus on the characteristics of the specific federal state, which are setting-oriented and account for social determinants including sex/gender differences and economic factors. Relevant data gathering is therefore, urgently needed
Ethnic Stratification and Patterns of Income Inequality Around the World
Cross-National Variation in Quality of Life of Care-Dependent Elders in Europe
Cross-national variation in subjective quality of life (sQoL) among older long-term care recipients (LTCRs) in Europe is substantial but rarely subject to explicit theoretical or empirical consideration. We suggest combining multilevel regression analysis with fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis (QCA) in a two-step approach given the small number of countries for which cross-national survey data are available and the considerable number of…
Solidarity in Times of Crisis from a Sociological Perspective
People in countries substantially affected by the recent fiscal-economic crisis are facing disruptions of their everyday lives due to tightened labor markets and recently implemented austerity measures reducing the level of public social protection. In those circumstances, particularly in Southern European countries with strong familialistic traditions, the family network can represent a pool of resources, potentially cushioning impacts of unempl…
