Association of the Halp score with baseline and incident physical-cognitive comorbidity and mortality: Evidence from the WCHAT and UK Biobank cohorts
Objective: To evaluate the associations of the hemoglobin-albumin-lymphocyte-platelet (HALP) score with baseline physical-cognitive comorbidity, incident physical-cognitive comorbidity, and all-cause mortality using two independent cohorts. Methods: Data were derived from the West China Health and Aging Trend (WCHAT) cohort and the UK Biobank (UKB). Participants aged ≥50 years with available laboratory, covariate, and functional data were include…
The association between sleep quality and cognitive impairment among a multi-ethnic population of middle-aged and older adults in Western China: A multi-center cross-sectional study
Objective This study aims to investigate the relationship between sleep quality and cognitive impairment in middle-aged and older adults living in Western China. Methods Baseline data from the West China Health and Aging Trend (WCHAT) study were utilized, with enrollment of participants aged 50 years or older. Sleep quality was assessed using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), where a PSQI score > 5 indicated poor sleep quality. The cogni…
Associations between sleep disorders, anxiety, depression, and the phases of sarcopenia to severe sarcopenia: Findings from the WCHAT study
Background: Sarcopenia not only leads to impaired physical function but also may be associated with changes in sleep and mental health as individuals age. Research on the relationships between sleep disorders, anxiety, and depression and adult-onset sarcopenia is limited, however, with no reports of the associations between them and different severity of sarcopenia. The objective of this research endeavor is to investigate the associations betwee…
Mediation of nutritional status between the number of teeth and depressive symptoms in multi-ethnic older adults from Western China
Background Depression is a prevalent issue among older adults, affecting the quality of life and overall health of individuals. This study aimed to investigate the role of nutritional status in mediating the number of teeth and depressive symptoms. Method A prospective multi-ethnic baseline data of 6,632 adults aged 50 years and older was derived from the 2018 West China Health and Aging Trend study. Depressive symptoms were assessed using the 15…
The association between cognitive impairment and oral health or oral hygiene behaviors among multiethnic older adults in Western China: A cross-sectional multicenter study
Inadequate oral hygiene behaviors and deteriorating oral health may be associated with a higher risk of cognitive impairment. Advancing oral health and oral hygiene behaviors is essential for preventing cognitive impairment among multiethnic older adults
The diagnostic agreement of sarcopenic obesity with different definitions in Chinese community-dwelling middle-aged and older adults
Background: In 2022, the European Society for Clinical Nutrition and Metabolism (ESPEN) and the European Association for the Study of Obesity (EASO) launched a consensus on the diagnostic methods for sarcopenic obesity (SO). The study aimed to identify the prevalence and diagnostic agreement of SO using different diagnostic methods in a cohort of subjects from West China aged at least 50 years old. Methods: A large multi-ethnic sample of 4,155 pa…
Association between daytime nap duration and risks of frailty: Findings from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study
Introduction: Night sleep duration and total sleep duration are associated with frailty. However, the association between daytime nap duration and the risks of frailty has not been explored thoroughly. Methods: This study used data from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS). Participants aged 60 years and older at baseline were included in this study. Individuals with daytime nap duration were categorized into four groups: n…
Association between the domestic use of solid cooking fuel and increased prevalence of depression and cognitive impairment in a big developing country: A large-scale population-based study
Background: Previous studies have suggested that air pollution affects physiological and psychological health. Using solid fuel at home is a significant source of indoor air pollution. The associations between solid fuel use and depressive symptoms and cognitive health were unclear among older adults from low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). Methods: To evaluate the association of solid fuel use with depressive symptoms and cognitive health …
Impact of Geriatric Conditions Versus Medical Diagnoses on ADL Disability Among Nonagenarians and Centenarians
This study emphasizes the importance of geriatric conditions and their association with ADL disability among the oldest-old adult population
Is there an association between mild cognitive impairment and dietary pattern in chinese elderly? Results from a cross-sectional population study
Among Chinese nonagenarians and centenarians, we found there were significant associations between inadequate intake of legume and animal oil and the prevalence of MCI. No significant correlation between other food items and the prevalence of MCI were demonstrated in this study
