Coexisting frailty and depression associated with low physical activity and quality of life in Saudi community-dwelling older adults: A cross-sectional study
Background Frailty and depression are common conditions in older adults, but their coexistence and combined impact on physical activity and quality of life remain understudied, particularly in Saudi Arabia. Objective To examine the independent associations of depression, frailty, and their coexistence with physical activity levels and quality of life among Saudi older adults. Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted among 395 community-dwell…
Prevalence of multiple long-term chronic conditions and associated disabilities among community-dwelling adults in Riyadh
Background/objectives Saudi Arabia is experiencing a rapid increase in chronic diseases and disabilities. However, there is a dearth of research on these topics in the Arab world. This study aimed to examine the prevalence of multiple long-term chronic conditions (MLTCs) and disabilities and their relationship. Methods The survey was conducted in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, in 2023. Convenient sampling was used to select 324 participants aged 50 years …
Number of medications and polypharmacy are associated with frailty in older adults: Results from the Midlife in the United States study
Objectives The current study aimed to examine the association between the number of medications, polypharmacy, and frailty in community-dwelling older adults. In addition, the cutoff score for the number of medications related with frailty in this sample was determined. Methods A cross-sectional analysis was performed using data of 328 individual aged between 65 and 85 years from the Midlife in the United States (MIDUS 2): Biomarker Project, 2004…
National and regional prevalence rates of hypertension in Saudi Arabia: A descriptive analysis using the national survey data
Background: Limited studies have examined the prevalence of hypertension (HTN) at the national and regional levels in Saudi Arabia. Therefore, this study aimed to examine the national and regional prevalence of HTN in the Saudi population. Methods: This study used the data from household health survey carried out by the General Authority for Statistics in 2017. It included 24,012 households representing the Saudi population across all 13 administ…
Fatigue and Cognitive Decline Associated With Depressive Symptoms Among Community-Dwelling Adults
To investigate the prevalence of depressive symptoms in community-dwelling Saudi adults aged ≥50 years and the associated risk factors. Patient Health Questionnaire 9 (PHQ-9) was dichotomized as depressive symptoms when the participants scored ≥10. Risk factors included age, sex, body mass index, education, employment, marital status, number of chronic diseases and medications, fatigue severity scale (FSS), and Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA…
Prevalence of Low Back Pain and Associated Risk Factors among Saudi Arabian Adolescents: A Cross-Sectional Study
Low back pain is the most prevalent musculoskeletal condition. Studies on adolescent low back pain are scarce, with no research to determine its prevalence in Saudi Arabia. This study aimed to assess the prevalence and associated risk factors of low back pain in Saudi Arabian adolescents. This cross-sectional study was conducted among Saudi Arabian high school students, which included demographic data, medical and low back pain history. The compl…
Prevalence and Risk Factors Associated with Low Back Pain in the Saudi Adult Community: A Cross-Sectional Study
Worldwide, low back pain is common and linked with many risk factors. There is a lack of studies in the Saudi Arabian community on low back pain prevalence and risk factors. Therefore, the present research will investigate the prevalence of low back pain in the middle-aged and elderly community population and examine the risk factors contributing to low back pain in Saudi Arabia. The present paper is a cross-sectional study of the community livin…
Gait Speed as a Predictor for Diabetes Incidence in People with or at Risk of Knee Osteoarthritis: A Longitudinal Analysis from the Osteoarthritis Initiative
Baseline gait speed could be an important screening tool for identifying people at risk of incident diabetes, and the determined cutoff value for gait speed should be examined in future research
The Association between Cardiorespiratory Fitness and Reported Physical Activity with Sleep Quality in Apparently Healthy Adults: A Cross-Sectional Study
The current study showed no association between CRF and the subjective sleep quality index but demonstrated a moderate inverse association between reported PA and subjective sleep quality index. The findings suggest that the more reported PA, the better the overall sleep quality
Association between Physical Frailty and Sleep Quality among Saudi Older Adults: A Community-Based, Cross-Sectional Study
(1) Background: Prevalence of poor sleep quality and its association with frailty status among the aging population of Saudi Arabia has not been studied. Therefore, the main objective of the current study was to estimate the prevalence of poor sleep quality and investigate the association between poor sleep quality and frailty in Saudi older adults; (2) Methods: A total of 270 (mean age 69.9 ± 6.2) older adults from the Riyadh region were involve…
