Diversity and 'successful ageing': exploring intersectional and existential dimensions to ageing well.
Gerontologist
January 2025
MRC Unit for Lifelong Health and Ageing, University College London, UK.
Background And Objectives: This paper aims to add to the literature on successful ageing in minoritized ethnic groups. Concurring with the critiques of 'successful ageing' for focusing on values and abilities more attainable by white middle-class older people, it explores alternative discourses according to which older people from minoritized groups consider themselves to be 'ageing well'.
Research Design And Methods: The paper draws on original empirical material derived from a longitudinal research project focused on five minority ethnic groups living in a city (and surrounding areas) of the UK known for its diverse population.
The Usability and Effect of a Novel Intelligent Rehabilitation Exergame System on Quality of Life in Frail Older Adults: Prospective Cohort Study.
JMIR Serious Games
January 2025
Department of Industrial Design, National Cheng Kung University, Tainan, Taiwan.
Background: Aging in older adults results in a decline in physical function and quality of daily life. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the exercise frequency among older adults decreased, further contributing to frailty. Traditional rehabilitation using repetitive movements tends not to attract older adults to perform independently.

Method: This was a multicenter prospective cohort study. A total of 473 pre-frail older adults were included, 335 as the training set and 142 as the test set.
Association between inflammatory biomarkers and the cognitive response to a multidomain intervention: secondary longitudinal analyses from the MAPT study.
Geroscience
January 2025
Gerontopole, Clinical and Geroscience Research, Toulouse University Hospital, WHO Collaborating Center for Frailty, and Geriatric Training, Toulouse, France.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the association of systemic inflammation measured by plasma biomarkers with the change in cognitive function among participants from the Multidomain Alzheimer Preventive Trial (MAPT) exposed to the multidomain intervention (MI). Secondary analysis of the MAPT longitudinal data. MAPT is a randomized, placebo-controlled trial with 3 interventional groups (omega-3 only, MI only, omega-3 plus MI) and a control group.

International Institute for Integrative Sleep Medicine, University of Tsukuba, Tsukuba, Ibaraki 305-8575, Japan.
Sleep insufficiency and sleep disorders pose serious health challenges. This study aimed to determine the potential discrepancy between subjective and objective sleep assessments, including the latter made by physicians, by analyzing a 421-participant dataset in Japan comprising multiple nights of in-home sleep electroencephalogram (EEG) data and questionnaire responses on sleep habits or subjective experiences. We employed logistic regression models to examine which subjective and objective sleep parameters physicians are paying attention to when assessing sleep insufficiency, insomnia, sleep quality, and sleep apnea.
