Toward a Pedagogy of Transculturality
In this essay, Catherine Park and Glynda A. Hull take an analytical deep dive into a student artifact produced in an undergraduate education course they teach to trace how diverse young people navigate their multiple identities and cultures relationally and are constantly in processes of negotiating these relations. Through this analysis they interrogate notions of culture in asset-based pedagogies that may reinforce static and reductive understa…
Inflammatory Biomarkers Differ among Hospitalized Veterans Infected with Alpha, Delta, and Omicron Sars-CoV-2 Variants
Mortality due to COVID-19 has been correlated with laboratory markers of inflammation, such as C-reactive protein (CRP). The lower mortality during Omicron variant infections could be explained by variant-specific immune responses or host factors, such as vaccination status. We hypothesized that infections due to Omicron variant cause less inflammation compared to Alpha and Delta, correlating with lower mortality. This was a retrospective cohort …
Association between Fall History and Gait, Balance, Physical Activity, Depression, Fear of Falling, and Motor Capacity
Maintaining function in older adults is key to the quality of life and longevity. This study examined the potential impact of falls on accelerating further deterioration over time in gait, balance, physical activity, depression, fear of falling, and motor capacity in older adults. 163 ambulatory older adults (age = 76.5 ± 7.7 years) participated and were followed for 6 months. They were classified into fallers or non-fallers based on a history of…
Tele-Medicine Based and Self-Administered Interactive Exercise Program (Tele-Exergame) to Improve Cognition in Older Adults with Mild Cognitive Impairment or Dementia
Improved life expectancy is increasing the number of older adults who suffer from motor-cognitive decline. Unfortunately, conventional balance exercise programs are not tailored to patients with cognitive impairments, and exercise adherence is often poor due to unsupervised settings. This study describes the acceptability and feasibility of a sensor-based in-home interactive exercise system, called tele-Exergame, used by older adults with mild co…
