In multivariable models, PD/LBD caregiving was associated with worse health. Among PD/LBD caregivers, performing medical/nursing tasks was associated with higher odds of strain, loneliness, worse health, and depressive symptoms.Conclusion: PD/LBD caregivers are a distinct group who often experience high-demand caregiving.

Forty older adults were retrieved from a descriptive study. OSA risk was measured by the STOP-BANG questionnaire, and hypertension by self-report and medications used. Spearman rho correlation and two-way analysis of covariance were used in the data analysis.Results: After controlling for covariates (i.e., age, educational years, health conditions, body mass index, and depressive symptoms), older adults with hypertension had poorer memory and attention; older adults with high OSA risk had poorer memory and better executive function. This interaction effect of hypertension and OSA risk on executive function was significant.Conclusion: The association between hypertension and memory and attention and between OSA risk and memory in older adults was supported. The interaction effect was found in executive function but unexpected. Future studies are needed to recruit older adults with hypertension and diagnosed OSA to explore these interaction effects.

The current study aimed to compare geriatric syndrome prevalence in older adults with and without diabetes.Method: Primary research (2011 to 2024) in English, French, or Spanish was included. We used multiple databases following Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines. Pooled log odds ratios (ORs) and prevalence rates were calculated using random-effects models. Sensitivity analysis explored heterogeneity, and publication bias was assessed.Results: Older adults with diabetes exhibited higher prevalence rates of cognitive impairment (9.13% vs. 4.22%, log OR: 0.1884), depression (8.96% vs. 5.44%, log OR: 0.3543), falls (11.5% vs. 4.47%, log OR: 0.4237), functional impairment (14.2% vs. 10.6%, log OR: 1.02), urinary incontinence (9.72% vs. 4.35%, log OR: 1.3668), frailty (22.8% vs. 12.1%, log OR: 1.3443), and polypharmacy (22.9% vs. 5.78%, log OR: 2.5420). Diabetes was also associated with a higher comorbidity burden.Conclusion: Multidisciplinary strategies addressing diabetes and associated conditions are crucial for older adults with diabetes. Future research should delve into underlying mechanisms and optimize care strategies.

Low physical activity was the predominant symptom experienced by middle-aged adults with pre-frailty. Moreover, males, those with low educational levels, and those with poor mood status had a higher risk of frailty (p < 0.05). In addition, those who consumed milk more than three times per week had a lower risk of frailty compared to their counterparts (p < 0.05).Conclusion: Health care programs that focus on increasing physical activity, milk consumption, and psychological support could be suitable strategies for preventing and managing pre-frailty in this population.

Cognitive functioning and life satisfaction are psychological factors that affect older adults' mental health, whereas self-rated health and child relationship satisfaction are biological and social factors affecting their mental health, respectively. Furthermore, self-rated pain and limitations in activities of daily living were identified as risk factors for their mental health. Key factors affecting older adults' mental health differ between living situations.Conclusion: Key factors of depressive symptoms in older adults differ across living situations, providing a priority and reference for differential prevention and precise intervention of depressive symptoms to promote a healthy aging process.

A total of 473 pre-frail older adults were included, 335 as the training set and 142 as the test set. Univariate and stepwise binary logistic regression analyses were conducted to identify the relationship between pre-frail and fall risk and establish the frailty risk prediction nomogram. The nomogram was constructed based on the results of logistic regression. The model assessment relied on the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, Hosmer-Lemeshow test, calibration curves, and decision curve analysis.Results: Fall incidence rate among pre-frail older adults within 6 months was 13.63%. The final fall risk prediction model identified that sex, history of falls in the past year, visual impairment, increased nocturia, and fear of falling are the most critical risk factors for falls in pre-frail older adults. The model exhibited good accuracy in the testing set, with an area under the ROC curve of 0.825 (95% confidence interval [0.736, 0.914]).Conclusion: Pre-frail older adults have a higher incidence of falls. The logistic regression model constructed in this study shows promising predictive capabilities and can be used as a screening tool to identify pre-frail older adults at high risk of falls in clinical practice. We anticipate that this model will assist clinical nurses in enhancing the efficiency of fall prevention efforts and reducing the incidence of falls among pre-frail older adults.
