Religion, particularly Islam, plays a crucial role in helping older people overcome challenges such as loneliness, declining health, and the loss of loved ones. However, insufficient systematic reviews have been conducted on the literature on aged care from an Islamic perspective, illustrating that extensive studies in this field are required. Thus, the aim of the current paper was to bridge this gap by examining how Islamic beliefs and practices contribute to the physical and mental health of older people. Utilizing the Scopus, ScienceDirect, and PubMed databases, in addition to the gray literature, a systematic review of the literature was undertaken in August 2024. The inclusion criteria involved experimental, non-experimental, observational, and qualitative studies involving individuals aged 60 and above, with a focus on Islamic involvement. A narrative synthesis was conducted, and the quality of the studies was evaluated using the Joanna Briggs Institute checklists. The inclusion of 29 articles was supported by the methodological quality assessments. Four themes were identified: Islamic principles in care for older people; Islamic values and mental health; Islamic-based interventions and health outcomes; and spiritual needs and older people care. The integration of Islamic values into the care of older people offers a holistic approach that improves their physical and mental health. Future healthcare policies and guidelines should emphasize spiritual care as an essential element in care for older people to provide a more comprehensive and effective care approach.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":51665,"journal":{"name":"Ageing International","volume":"51 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2026-01-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s12126-025-09644-6.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145982892","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The rate by which dementia cases have been significantly increasing despite clinical reports and psychometric tests being utilized by clinicians to diagnose it illustrates a health challenge and global concern about the techniques being used in the Global medical analysis of the condition. Therefore, with the help of machine learning (ML) algorithms, the aim of this study is to classify patients with dementia using various clinical parameters to help in quick and highly accurate diagnosis. Seven ML models: logistic regression, decision tree, random forest, support vector machine, gradient boosting, voting classifier and stacking classifier, were evaluated using several performance metrics to enhance the efficiency of dementia diagnosis. Interpretation of the model results was based on an explainable algorithm: SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP). All classifiers achieved high accuracy in categorising the dementia dataset where random forest, logistic regression and voting classifier achieved high accuracy (92%), high precision (98%), high recall (87% to 88%), high F1-score (92% to 93%) and high AUC (95%) which indicating the classifiers reliability in reducing false positive and false negative dementia cases. The used approach achieves more robustness and easy interpretability compared to other techniques applied in literature through the application of multiple ML techniques, a thorough cross-validation [The ensemble model had statistical significant difference when compared to the single model (AUC: 0.972 vs 0.924, p&lt;0.05), but not with other ensemble models (AUC: 0.972 vs 0.966, p=0.55)], and SHAP analysis. The applied methodology can be used to facilitate the early detection of dementia, enable early treatment interventions, and SHAP-based interpretability can help increase transparency during this decision-making process, thereby increasing their integration into hospital operations. Such an approach can help neurologists and radiologists to effectively screen patients and prioritize further evaluations, which will ultimately lead to a minimization of diagnostic delays.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":51665,"journal":{"name":"Ageing International","volume":"51 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2025-12-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145779245","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The increasing complexity of long-term care in Portugal calls for an evaluation system tailored to the country’s clinical, social organizational context. Existing European indicators, developed for different settings, fail to fully capture national specificities. The indicators proposed in this study, incorporating care time, professional roles, and resident profiles, enable a more accurate assessment, support continuous improvement, and guide evidence-based public policies. Indicators were validated through literature review, Delphi consensus, and analysis of residents’ records using descriptive statistics and multiple linear and logistic regressions models (Stepwise and Forward). Structure, presence of an interdisciplinary team, an Individual Intervention Plan and case manager, Nursing Assistant hours and psychosocial care. Process: rate of dependency, use of anti-infective drugs, for the central nervous and cardiovascular systems, and prevalence of pressure ulcers. Outcome: rate of falls, deaths, hospitalizations, bedridden individuals, incontinence and incidence of pressure ulcers. This preliminary study based on Donabedian's model identifies structure, process and outcome indicators to evaluate long-term integrated care. The time spent caring for dependent users, especially in Long Duration and Maintenance Unit, reveals greater complexity.

The present study aimed to examine whether temporal focus influences the association between age and purpose in life scores, using three purpose in life measures, each with differences in their temporal focus. Participants (<i>N</i> = 312, <i>M</i> age = 48.5 years, <i>SD</i> = 18.3) were split into control, or past, present, or future positive self-induction groups to induce temporally focused thinking prior to completing three purpose in life measures.

All data were collected online via Prolific. The data revealed greater purpose in life with age across all three purpose measures. However, relative to the control condition, these age-related improvements in purpose were reduced in the present-induction condition for all three measures of purpose, and in the future-induction condition for one of the measures of purpose.
