  • Childhood adverse events and BDNF promoter methylation in later-life

    Open AccessAoshuang Zhou, Marie‐Laure Ancelin et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Psychiatry2023

    Studies have shown that the effects of early-life stress and trauma can be enduring, with long-term negative effects on health. Epigenetics, including DNA methylation, have been implicated as a potential mechanism for these effects. Brain-derived neurotropic factor (BDNF) is a neurotransmitter involved in learning and memory, and altered BDNF promoter methylation measured in peripheral tissue has been found with early-life stress. However, whethe…

    Objectives. To investigate the relationship between vision and disability in the elderly. Methods. We used a baseline visual indicator (combining near acuity with Snellen equivalent Results. In multiadjusted analyses, near visual impairment, alone or associated with distance visual function loss, was associated with greater risk of developing ADL limitations (P = .027), IADL limitations (P = .002), and participation restriction (P Conclusions.

  • If patient‐reported outcome measures are considered key health‐care quality indicators, who is excluded from participation

    Open AccessT Kroll, Sally Wyke et al.ARTICLEHealth Expectations2014

    Patient‐reported outcome measures have received increasing attention with regard to ensuring quality improvement across the health service. However, there is a risk that people with disabilities and low literacy are systematically excluded from the development of these measures as well as their application in clinical practice. This editorial highlights some of these risks and the potential consequences of exclusion for these groups

  • Sleep and Depression

    Norifumi Tsuno, Alain Besset et al.ARTICLEThe Journal of Clinical Psychiatry2005

    BACKGROUND: Of all the psychiatric disorders associated with insomnia, depression is the most common. It has been estimated that 90% of patients with depression complain about sleep quality. Since the first reports of short rapid eye movement (REM) latency in depressed patients and of the effect of sleep deprivation on depression in the 1970s, numerous sleep studies have provided extensive observations and theoretical hypotheses concerning the et…

  • Critical Commentary

    Karen Ritchie, C RitchieARTICLEThe British Journal of Social Work2005

    At a time of increasing focus on evidence-based practice, this paper invites readers to question the basis of our public care system and to evaluate the increasing move towards kinship care in the light of the evidence.

  • Mild cognitive impairment – beyond controversies, towards a consensus

    Open AccessBengt Winblad, Katie Palmer et al.ARTICLEJournal of Internal Medicine2004

    The First Key Symposium was held in Stockholm, Sweden, 2–5 September 2003. The aim of the symposium was to integrate clinical and epidemiological perspectives on the topic of Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI). A multidisciplinary, international group of experts discussed the current status and future directions of MCI, with regard to clinical presentation, cognitive and functional assessment, and the role of neuroimaging, biomarkers and genetics. A…

  • Current Concepts in Mild Cognitive Impairment

    Ronald C Petersen, Rachelle S Doody et al.ARTICLEArchives of Neurology2001

    The field of aging and dementia is focusing on the characterization of the earliest stages of cognitive impairment. Recent research has identified a transitional state between the cognitive changes of normal aging and Alzheimer's disease (AD), known as mild cognitive impairment (MCI). Mild cognitive impairment refers to the clinical condition between normal aging and AD in which persons experience memory loss to a greater extent than one would ex…

  • Dementia-free life expectancy in France

    Karen Ritchie, J M Robine et al.ARTICLEAmerican Journal of Public Health1994Citada por: 4Referências: 8

    OBJECTIVES. Increasing concern with the quality of gains in life years has led to the development of a new synthetic indicator of population health:health expectancy. Until now, calculations have been made for physical disabilities only. A first estimate of mental health expectancy is presented: dementia-free life expectancy. METHODS. Sullivan's method was used to calculate dementia-free life expectancy for a random representative sample of 4134 …
