ObjectiveThis observational study examined the risk factors associated with recurrence in patients with mild ischemic stroke and determined the characteristics of high-risk groups.MethodsA total of 656 patients hospitalized for mild ischemic stroke were monitored for 1 year. Statistical analyses, including odds ratio calculations and K-means clustering, were conducted to examine risk factors for recurrence and the characteristics of high-risk groups.ResultsAfter 1 year of follow-up, 99 patients experienced recurrent mild ischemic stroke, resulting in a recurrence rate of 15.09%. The analysis revealed several significant risk factors, including type 2 diabetes mellitus, atrial fibrillation, smoking and alcohol consumption, carotid artery stenosis, cerebral vascular stenosis, and multiple lesions. Propensity score matching confirmed these associations, and K-means clustering revealed that older males with type 2 diabetes mellitus and hypertension were likely to be in the high-risk group.ConclusionsHealthcare professionals should focus on tailored treatment and prevention strategies for high-risk patients, prioritizing the management of the abovementioned risk factors to reduce recurrence and improve outcomes.
OBJECTIVES:To examine the association between friendly community environments and depressive symptoms among older adults in China and to investigate the potential mediating roles of happiness and confidence in this association. DESIGN:A nationally representative longitudinal study employing the parallel mediation model to estimate the direct association. Bootstrapping procedures were employed to test the hypothesised mediating effects. SETTING:The China Family Panel Studies (CFPS) database, a nationally representative survey. PARTICIPANTS:The analytical sample comprised 3182 individuals aged 60 years or older from the CFPS 2016, 2018 and 2020 waves. OUTCOME MEASURES:Depressive symptoms were measured using an eight-item version of the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale. Higher scores indicated more depressive symptoms. Friendly community environment, happiness and confidence were assessed using corresponding survey items. RESULTS:The analysis revealed a significant direct negative association was observed between friendly community environments and depressive symptoms (β=-0.062, 95% CI -0.092 to -0.035, p<0.001). This effect was significantly mediated by increased happiness (indirect effect=-0.025, 95% CI -0.036 to -0.017, p<0.001) and increased confidence (indirect effect=-0.036, 95% CI -0.048 to -0.026, p<0.001). The urban-rural heterogeneity analysis demonstrates that the research findings remain robust across both urban and rural subsamples. CONCLUSION:Friendly community environments are negatively associated with depressive symptoms among older adults in China, primarily by enhancing happiness and confidence in life. To promote healthy ageing, it is crucial to create comfortable, clean and convenient community environments tailored to the older adult population.
Abstract Objective This study aims to construct and validate a scale for evaluating the quality of integrated medical and care services in elderly care institutions in Xiamen region. Methods A preliminary scale was constructed through literature review, expert selection and evaluation, and pre-survey. From May to November 2022, a proportional sample of elderly individuals was surveyed in seven care institutions across four districts in Xiamen city (Siming, Huli, Jimei, and Tong'an). Statistical methods, including critical ratio analysis, reliability and validity analysis, difference testing, and correlation analysis, were used to refine the scale items and assess its reliability and validity. Results The final scale comprised six dimensions: Health Education (10 items), Medical and Basic Nursing Care (14 items), Rehabilitation Services (7 items), Psychological/Spiritual Support Services (5 items), Medical-Related Safety Protection (6 items), and Others (6 items). The Cronbach's α coefficient was 0.991, and the α coefficients for the six dimensions were 0.974, 0.942, 0.951, 0.860, 0.901, and 0.930, respectively. Exploratory factor analysis demonstrated good validity (KMO = 0.942, χ2 = 13957.791, P < 0.001). Conclusion The constructed scale for evaluating the quality of integrated medical and care services in elderly care institutions in Xiamen demonstrated satisfactory reliability and validity. It can serve as a practical tool for evaluating the quality of such services and contribute to the standardization and professionalization of integrated medical and care services in the region.
Background Chinese aging population degree will transform mild to moderate. During addressing aging issues by proactive national strategies and healthy aging strategies, the sleep health of older peoplecannot be ignored. Objective To explore the effect of working after retirement on sleep quality in Chinese older people, providing relevant reference data for improving sleep quality in this group of people. Methods In August 2021, data of working after retirement prevalence and sleep health in subjects aged ≥60 years (n=7 862) were obtained from the 2018 China Family Panel Studies (CFPS) conducted by Peking University with permission. They were divided into working after retirement and non-working after retirement groups by working after retirement prevalence. Normal sleep duration (within 4 to 10 hoursper night) , abnormal sleep duration (≤4 or ≥10 hours per night) , sleeping late (going to bed after 23 o'clock) in accordance with relevant diagnostic criteria used in international studies on sleep health in middle-aged and older people. Self-reported perceptions of sleep quality were classified into optimistic and pessimistic according to subjective evaluation of sleep efficiency and effect. Binary Logistic regression model was used to explore the effect of working after retirement on sleep duration, perception of sleep quality and the time to go to sleep. Results Among the subjects, 5 705 (72.56%) had optimistic sleep quality, 6 508 (82.78%) had normal sleep duration, and 7 464 (94.94%) went to sleep earlier than 23: 00, and 4 005 (50.94%) still worked after retirement. After controlling for age, gender, maritalstatus, education level, personality traits and other factors, working after retirement was associated with increased probability of higher optimism with sleep quality〔OR (95%CI) =1.205 (1.069, 1.358) 〕, more normal sleep duration〔OR (95%CI) =1.306 (1.137, 1.499) 〕, and earlier time to go to sleep〔OR (95%CI) =1.596 (1.253, 2.033) 〕.Working after retirement was associated with increased probability of good sleep quality (P<0.05) . Conclusion As working after retirement may be contributive to good sleep quality in older people, it should be supported and guaranteed by governmental policies.

BackgroundThe risk of recurrent stroke following a minor stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA) is high, when inflammation might play an important role. We aimed to evaluate the value of neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) in predicting composite cardiovascular events in patients with minor stroke and TIA.MethodsConsecutive patients with acute minor stroke or TIA admitted within 24 h of symptoms onset during a 5-year period in a prospective stroke registry were analyzed. We calculated the NLR dividing absolute neutrophil count by absolute lymphocyte count tested within 24 h of admission. NLR ≥4th quartile was defined as high NLR. A composite outcome was defined as stroke, acute coronary syndrome or vascular death within 1 year. We investigated associations between NLR and the composite outcome in univariate and multivariate analyses, among all patients and in those aged over 60 years (i.e., older patients).ResultsOverall, 841 patients (median age 68 years; 60.4% males) were recruited. No significant independent association was found between NLR and the composite outcome in multivariate analysis in the overall cohort. Among the 612 older patients (median age 73 years; 59.2% males), the median NLR was 2.76 (interquartile range 1.96−4.00) and 148 (24.2%) patients had high NLR. The composite outcome occurred in 77 (12.6%) older patients, who were more likely to have a high NLR (39.0% versus 22.1%; p = 0.001) than those without a composite outcome. In multivariate logistic regression, high NLR (adjusted odds ratio 2.00; 95% confidence interval 1.07−3.75; p = 0.031) was independently associated with the composite outcome in older patients.ConclusionIn older (aged ≥60 years) patients with acute minor stroke or TIA, a higher NLR, a marker of systemic inflammation that can be easily obtained in routine blood tests, is an independent predictor of subsequent cardiovascular events.
