Racial and Ethnic Differences in Everyday Discrimination Measures in a National Sample of U.S. Adults
Elucidating the relationship between hearing loss, social isolation, and dementia: Data from the National Health and Aging Trends Study
Moderate-severe hearing loss is associated with increased dementia risk-a relationship that appears moderated by social isolation status. This data may provide preliminary insights into potentially mediating effects. Further longitudinal research is needed to clarify this pathway and inform dementia prevention strategies
Withdrawn: Influence of Discrimination and Vigilance on Memory and Concentration: Interactions with Age, Race-Ethnicity, and Sex in a National U.S. Sample
Longitudinal Engagement in Modifiable Lifestyle Behaviors and Racial–Ethnic Differences in Dementia Risk
Objectives The objective was to examine racial–ethnic differences in longitudinal engagement for lifestyle behaviors and moderating role of race–ethnicity between lifestyle behaviors and dementia risk. Methods We analyzed 2011–2021 National Health and Aging Trends Study data, a nationally representative U.S. sample of 6155 White, Black, Hispanic, and Asian older adults aged 65+. Cox models regressed dementia on the interaction between lifestyle b…
Adverse childhood experiences and myocardial infarction: Analysis of United States Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) data
Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) have been linked to an increased risk of disease in adulthood and a range of other negative health outcomes, including cardiovascular disease (CVD). This study aims to build on previous research on ACEs and CVD by investigating the association between ACEs and heart attack or myocardial infarction diagnosis. Our analysis used cross-sectional data from the 2021 Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS)…
Association between food insecurity severity and major depression: Findings from the United States National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey
Food insecurity and mental health disorders have been increasing in all populations globally due to a variety of sociopolitical factors. Our study examines how the severity of food insecurity is associated with major depression in adults. We analyzed data from the 2017–2018 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, which includes a nationally representative sample from households across the United States. Our sample was restricted to adul…
Role of Neighborhood Physical Disorder and Social Cohesion on Racial and Ethnic Disparities in Dementia Risk
Objectives: To analyze how neighborhood physical disorder and social cohesion are associated with racial and ethnic disparities in dementia risk. Methods: Nine years of data (2011-2019) were retrieved from the National Health and Aging Trends Study, a nationally representative U.S. older adult (age 65+) sample. Cox regression analyzed time to dementia diagnosis using composite scores for neighborhood physical disorder and social cohesion. Results…
Associations between volunteering and cognitive impairment: The moderating role of race/ethnicity
Although volunteering has been shown to benefit cognitive health, there is a paucity of evidence on informal volunteering and subjective measures of cognitive impairment. Also, little is known about whether such relationships vary by race/ethnicity. This study aimed to examine the associations of both formal and informal volunteering with older adults' objective and subjective cognition and explore the moderating role of race/ethnicity in such as…
