This study examines the levels of and factors associated with consumption of sugar and fat-reduced foods in sample of rural, ethnically diverse older adults. Data were collected from 122 older adults, including demographic and health characteristics and six 24-hour recalls over 16-month period. About one-quarter of sweetened foods were modified, while intake of fat-modified foods ranged from 4.4 to 76.1%. Few differences in intake of modified foods were observed by gender and ethnic groups. Diabetes status was associated with higher use of sugar-modified foods. This study shows high level of acceptance of sugar- and fat-modified foods among rural older adults across variety of demographic and health characteristics.

Approximately 22 % of the United States population communicates in a non-English language, potentially impacting healthcare communication and outcomes. Few studies have examined the association between non-English primary language (NEPL) and surgical outcomes and none to our knowledge in patients undergoing arteriovenous fistula creation within a safety net system.

The growing population of older adults emphasizes the need to develop interventions that prevent or delay some of the cognitive decline that accompanies aging. In particular, as memory impairment is the foremost cognitive deficit affecting older adults, it is vital to develop interventions that improve memory function. This study addressed the problem of false memories in aging by training older adults to use details of past events during memory retrieval to distinguish targets from related lures.

Background: Day surgery is being increasingly implemented across Europe, driven in part by capacity problems. Patients recovering at home could benefit from tools tailored to their new care setting to effectively manage their convalescence.
