CONTEXT Aerobic fitness, an important predictor of cardiovascular disease and mortality, is difficult to assess by maximal exercise testing in older adults. Extended walking tests have been examined as outcome predictors in medically ill populations but not in community-dwelling older adults. OBJECTIVE To determine whether an extended walking test predicts poor outcomes in older adults. DES...
OBJECTIVES This research explores whether modifiable risk factors (MRFs) are potential mediators and/or moderators of racial/ethnic and educational mobility limitation disparities among older women. METHOD Utilizing Waves 2-9 (1994-2008) of the Health and Retirement Study (HRS), discrete-time event history models with multiple competing events were estimated using multinomial logistic regress...
CONTEXT Physical performance in response to exercise appears to be influenced by the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) insertion (I)/deletion (D) genotype in young adults, but whether this relationship could help explain variation in older individuals' response to exercise has not been well studied. OBJECTIVE To determine whether the ACE genotype interacts with significant physical activity...
AIM The Visual Disability Assessment (VDA), a questionnaire for measuring the impact of cataract on visual functioning, was developed using classical test theory. Since this approach is limited, our aim was to further investigate the psychometric properties of the VDA using Rasch analysis. METHODS 613 patients from the Flinders Medical Centre cataract surgery self-administered the VDA. Psycho...
Mobility limitation is defi ned as a state in which an individual experiences a limitation in independent physical movement or is at risk for experiencing limitations.1 Although physiotherapy (PT) and occupational therapy (OT) are widely used interventions for many care home residents, particularly those suffering from severe mobility limitations, evidence for their clinical effectiveness is in...
OBJECTIVES Several theoretical viewpoints suggest that older adults need to modify their personal goals in the face of functional decline. The aim of this study was to investigate longitudinally the association of mobility limitation with changes in personal goals among older women. METHOD Eight-year follow-up of 205 women aged 66-78 years at baseline. RESULTS Health-related goals were the ...
