Effects of cognitive workload during motor-cognitive training on executive function, dual-task performance, and posture control: a RCT among middle-aged and older adults

Yi Zhao, Xiaojing Li, Zhengyue Loumeng, Qi Li, Wei Sun, Xuewen Tian, Binghong Gao, Ran Li

Background Falls are a major concern in geriatric health, and impairments in executive function (EF), gait, and postural control are important fall-related risk factors. Interactive motor-cognitive training (IMCT) has shown promise as an intervention to mitigate these risks. This study aims to assess the acute effects of IMCT programs with three levels of cognitive load (high, medium, and low) on EF, spatio-temporal gait parameters, and postural control in middle-aged and older adults. Methods In this single-blind, …

Examining the relationships between time pressure, challenge and hindrance technostressors and work outcomes in online labour markets

Azka Umair, Eoin Whelan, Kieran Conboy

Purpose The antecedents and consequences of technostress are well documented. Yet, one aspect of the technostress process that is not well understood is the role of time in shaping perceptions of technostress. This research investigates the relationships between time pressure, technostress and work outcomes in online labour markets (OLMs), a context where work accomplishment is highly dependent upon time. Design/methodology/approach This study uses transactional theory of stress as a theoretical perspective to empi …

The Business Case for Dementia-Competent Hospitals: Analyzing the Financial Return on Investment of Specialized Staff Training and Care Models

M. Ellenbogen, P. K. Beville, S. W. Grande, J. Hobday, P. Logan, M. Minor, T. Snow

Dementia is now a defining financial and operational challenge for US hospitals. Healthcare costs for an individual living with dementia average nearly four times those of an individual without it ($19,956 vs. $5,394 annually), and patients with dementia face longer lengths of stay and higher rates of preventable complications. With the over-85 population projected to double by 2040, this pressure will only intensify. Specialized staff training and comprehensive care models are not clinical add-ons but strategic fi …

Characterizing the Prevalence of Dementia Risk Factors in Moderate-to-Severe Traumatic Brain Injury

Gershon Spitz, Ruby Phyland, Matthew P. Pase, Meng Law, Jennie L. Ponsford, Amelia J. Hicks

In the current study, we aimed to determine whether adults with a history of moderate-to-severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) carry a greater burden of modifiable dementia risk factors than demographically matched healthy controls. This was a cross-sectional observational study. Participants were recruited from a pre-existing database of individuals who had previously undergone inpatient rehabilitation at a private hospital in Melbourne, Australia. The study included 106 individuals with a history of moderate-to-sev …

Daichi Shimose, Takasuke Miyazaki, Hisanori Matsuura, Sota Araki, Masayuki Kawada, Ryoji Kiyama

Abstract Background Feedback-based gait training has been shown to improve gait performance. Feedback gait training using inertial measurement units (IMUs) has been implemented in clinical settings but is limited to examining immediate effects; long-term effects on gait parameters such as gait speed remain unclear. This pilot study aimed to investigate the short-term effects of real-time feedback gait training using IMUs on gait parameters in older inpatients. Methods Seven older inpatients participated in this wit …

Effects of neural aging on speech perception in bilinguals vs. monolinguals

Miwako Hisagi, Beatriz Barragan, Margaret Winter, Annett Acosta, Burgundy Bisson, Alicia Park, Melody Arakelian, Susan Lee, Alessandro Presacco

This study examined the effects of aging and bilingualism on neural speech perception in Spanish-English (SE) bilinguals and American English (AE) monolinguals. As the population of bilingual older adults continues to grow, understanding how bilingual experience influences auditory processing across the lifespan has important theoretical and clinical implications. Electrophysiological measures, including mismatch negativity (MMN) and the sensory obligatory cortical responses (P1–N1–P2 complex), were used to assess …

When home is a dangerous place: the cost of falls among older people living in the community

Javiera Cartagena-Farías, José-Luis Fernández, Wagner Silva-Ribeiro, Nicola Brimblecombe

Falls among older people are common, and they may have consequences such as fractures and injuries. Falls may also reduce older people’s independence and wellbeing and increase demand for both healthcare and social care services. This research aims to investigate whether older people living in the community who experience poor housing conditions face a greater risk of falls than those living in better-quality housing after controlling for other risk factors. In particular, we aimed to (i) identify housing-related d …

Introduction Hippocampal atrophy is frequently observed in neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease (AD) or hippocampal sclerosis of aging (HS-aging). Volume loss in the hippocampus is described as prodromal stage of dementia and has been associated with AD polygenic risk score (PRS). CA1 and subiculum atrophy have been suggested to be a promising in vivo biomarker for HS-aging. Recent studies suggest that some loci associated with AD may be more related to other brain diseases concomitant with AD. We …

Iulia-Daniela Lungu, Adina Carmen Ilie, Ramona Ștefăniu, Sabinne-Marie Albișteanu, Ana-Maria Turcu, Gabriela Grigoraș, Diana-Gabriela Constantinescu, Anca-Iuliana Pîslaru, Ioana Dana Alexa

Insulin resistance (IR) is a well-established metabolic disorder characterized by reduced responsiveness of peripheral tissues to insulin, leading to hyperglycemia and compensatory hyperinsulinemia. Background: In older adults, IR tends to develop gradually and may remain undiagnosed for years due to the insidious nature of the condition, which often lacks overt symptoms. Non-pharmacological interventions refer to the sum of all measures taken in order to improve a certain biological determination or physical param …
