Violence, Inequity, and Their Impact on Health and Access to Healthcare Services Among the Elderly Population of Bogotá
A high percentage of the elderly population in the city of Bogotá has been victims of different types of violence, including ones related to armed conflict and forced displacement, which is a particular and exclusive form of violence suffered by this group of people. These findings suggest that violence and displacement are social determinants of health that exacerbate inequities, underscoring the need for more inclusive health policies and impro…

World guidelines for falls prevention and management for older adults
BACKGROUND: falls and fall-related injuries are common in older adults, have negative effects on functional independence and quality of life and are associated with increased morbidity, mortality and health related costs. Current guidelines are inconsistent, with no up-to-date, globally applicable ones present. OBJECTIVES: to create a set of evidence- and expert consensus-based falls prevention and management recommendations applicable to older a…

La hipoacusia representa una de las principales causas de discapacidad a nivel mundial y su prevalencia aumenta a medida que se envejece. Representa un tipo de discapacidad que, en la mayoría de los casos, puede ser potencialmente prevenible y tratable, por lo que su prevención, identificación temprana y rehabilitación integral deberían ser algunos de los puntos de acción a nivel local ya que se ha relacionado con numerosos desenlaces adversos en…
Role for Physical Fitness in the Association between Age and Cognitive Function in Older Adults
Objectives. We investigated the association between physical fitness and cognitive status. Further, we examined whether physical fitness mediates the association between cognitive functioning and aging. Design. Cross-sectional study. Setting. Urban and rural Colombian older adults. Methods. 4416 participants from the SABE study were included in the current analysis. Physical fitness was assessed with the handgrip test and the usual gait speed tes…
La vejez y la nueva CIE-11
Desde 1948, la Organización Mundial de la Salud ha venido publicando un sistema codificado de causas de enfermedad y muerte bajo el nombre genérico de Clasificación Estadística Internacional de Enfermedades (CIE), con revisiones en profundidad cada 10-15 años. En su última versión, CIE-11, se utiliza una terminología para caracterizar la vejez como “períodos geriátricos inicial y final”, lo que implica una medicalización de esta etapa de la vida …
Covid-19 related mortality in older adults
Objective. The aim of this study is to describe the mortality among older adults in the first wave of COVID-19 in Colombia and Mexico. Methods. This is an observational, prospective study on data obtained from open data sets that are publicly available on the websites of the health ministries of the respective countries. COVID-19 cases, age, sex, date to mortality, and mortality itself were analyzed with Kaplan-Meier curves and Cox regressions. R…

Displacement due to armed conflict and violence in childhood and adulthood and its effects on older adult health
Large population displacement in developing economies due to internal armed conflict and violence is of international concern. There has been relatively little research on the long-term consequences of displacement on older adult health among populations characterized by rapid demographic, epidemiological, and nutritional transitions during the 20 th century. We examine displacement in the middle-income country of Colombia, which experienced thes…

Early Life Displacement Due to Armed Conflict and Violence, Early Nutrition, and Older Adult Hypertension, Diabetes, and Obesity in the Middle-Income Country of Colombia
Objective: We examine the importance of early life displacement and nutrition on hypertension (HTN) and diabetes in older Colombian adults (60+ years) exposed to rapid demographic, epidemiological, and nutritional transitions, and armed conflict. We compare early life nutritional status and adult health in other middle- and high-income countries. Method: In Colombia (Survey of Health, Wellbeing and Aging [SABE]-Bogotá), we estimate the effects of…
Patterns of SES Health Disparities Among Older Adults in Three Upper Middle- and Two High-Income Countries
Rapid demographic and nutritional transitions, urbanization, poor early life conditions, social mobility, negative health behavior, and unique country circumstances provide a useful framework for understanding the SES health gradient in middle-income settings. In contrast with high-income countries, the increasing prevalence of obesity, an important risk factor for chronic conditions and other aspects of health, may ultimately change the SES grad…
Uso de medicamentos en adultos mayores de Bogotá, Colombia
The use of inappropriate medications is a major problem among older adults in Bogota. Further studies should identify factors that increase the risks of polypharmacy and inappropriate medication use and design interventions that would allow older adults to avoid these risks
Prevalence and Factors Associated to Hypertension Among Older Adults in Bogotá, Colombia
We found a high prevalence of hypertension in our cohort and found that comorbidities and poor self-rated health increase the odds of hypertension. Future studies need to tailor interventions for hypertension management in old age
Nutritional Assessment and Factors Associated to Malnutrition in Older Adults
The MNA is useful to evaluate factors associated with malnutrition among older adults in Bogotá. Malnutrition is associated with perception of poor health, comorbidities, number of medications, and cognitive impairment
