Dementia Caregiving Experiences and Health Across Geographic Contexts by Race and Ethnicity
Geographic context shapes dementia caregiving experiences and caregiver health differently across racial/ethnic groups. Findings are consistent with previous studies that have shown that feelings of uncertainty, helplessness, guilt, and distress are more prevalent among people providing caregiving from a distance. Despite higher rates of dementia and dementia-related mortality in nonmetro areas, findings suggest both positive and negative aspects…
The role of improved social support for healthy eating in a lifestyle intervention
Objective: We examined the measurement and mediating role of social support in dietary intake among participants in Texercise Select , an intervention for improving lifestyle behaviours. Design: Quasi-experimental study. Participants reported their dietary intake, level of social support measured by the new Social Support for Healthy Eating scale, sociodemographics and disease profile. We conducted exploratory factor analysis for scale evaluation…
Mediating Role of Fall-related Efficacy in a Fall Prevention Program
Objectives: We examined the multidimensionality of the new Perceived Ability to Prevent and Manage Fall Risks (PAPMFR) scale that assesses fall-related efficacy (FE) and the mediating role of EF between fear of falling (FOF) and functional mobility (FM). Methods: We carried out a secondary data analysis of 552 participants (mean age = 76.45, SD = 7.79) in a fall prevention program, A Matter of Balance Volunteer Lay Leader Model (AMOB/VLL). We use…
SP1-21 Correlation of mild bone fragility and related indicators of biological markers or ultrasonic bone densitometry in a normal Japanese population
Introduction Mild bone fragility has the potential to become a significant national problem given the ageing society as it is a pre-curser of osteoporosis. Methods Trabecular bone mineral density (BMD), bone elastic modulus (BEM) were measured. We also measured serum bone related antiresorptive markers (eg, calcium), bone absorption markers (TRACP-5b, pyridinoline) and bone formation markers (BAP). Various indicators were compared using χ 2 test …
