People ageing with HIV face crucial challenges that can compromise their long-term health, one of which is stigma. HIV-related stigma can interact with other coexistent inequities to create a unique oppression system that results in traumatic experiences. This intersectionality of stigmas represents a new inequality that is greater than the sum of the original component inequalities. In this Series paper we review the literature regarding the intersectionality of HIV-related and ageing-related stigma and health-related quality of life among people ageing with HIV in China, Europe, and Latin America-three regions that represent distinct epidemiological and cultural trends in terms of HIV and ageing. Substantial gaps in the literature were identified, in particular a scarcity of data from Latin America. We also found inconsistencies between countries in terms of definitions and reporting practices related to people ageing with HIV. Research that fully considers the intersectional stigmas faced by this vulnerable population will contribute to advancing the United Nations 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.

A Review of Falls And Injuries Of Nursing Home Residents Presenting To The Emergency Department.
QJM
January 2025
Tallaght hospital, Dept. of Age Related Healthcare; Trinity College Dublin, Dept. of Medical Gerontology.
Background: Falls are frequently reported within the HSE. The Irish Longitudinal Study on Ageing(TILDA) found that 40% of over 50 s experience a fall in a two year period, with 20% requiring hospital attendance (1). It has been estimated that the cost of injuries related to falls in older people will increase exponentially over the coming years (2).

Background: Alzheimer's disease (AD) is characterized by impaired inhibitory circuitry and GABAergic dysfunction, which is associated with reduced fast brain oscillations in the gamma band (γ, 30-90 Hz) in several animal models. Investigating such activity in human patients could lead to the identification of novel biomarkers of diagnostic and prognostic value. The current study aimed to test a multimodal "Perturbation-based" transcranial Alternating Current Stimulation-Electroencephalography (tACS)-EEG protocol to detect how responses to tACS in AD patients correlate with patients' clinical phenotype.

The prevalence of obesity and osteoporosis (OP) represents a significant public health concern on a global scale. A substantial body of evidence indicates that there is a complex relationship between obesity and OP, with a correlation between the occurrence of OP and obesity. In recent years, sirtuins have emerged as a prominent area of interest in the fields of aging and endocrine metabolism.

Background: Among the people with diverse backgrounds and cultural customs living in Japan, two important groups, namely, war-displaced Japanese returning from China and South and North Korean nationals who are naturalized citizens residing in Japan, will experience population aging in the same way as the general Japanese population. In old age, physical function generally declines, multiple diseases are more likely to occur, and health issues that need to be addressed increase in number. The aim of this study was to identify the factors associated with the use of preventive health services in Japan by older Korean residents and war-displaced Japanese returning from China.

Background: The global aging population has increased dynapenia prevalence, leading to mobility issues and poor sleep quality among older adults. Despite its impact, research on sleep quality in dynapenic outpatients is limited. This study investigates how physiological status, community participation, and daily activity function influence sleep quality in this group.
