A., Gill, T. M., Guralnik, J. M., Hsu, F., Katula, J., King, A. C., Kritchevsky, S. B., McDermott, M. M., Miller, M. E., Nayfield, S., Newman, A. Collaborative care has been widely studied from an economic perspective, with most studies demonstrating its relative cost-effectiveness per quality-adjusted life year (QALY) and some studies demonstrating its potential for cost neutrality or cost savings. Mr. Kaplan has been a member of The Jewish Agencys Board of Governors since 1995. The interpretation of screening results is also affected by several known biases. We had a great time on holiday in Kwazulu-Natal as well. Robert D. Kaplan - Career Reflections Author. In adjusted models, measures of mobility and physical inactivity were generally not associated with sleep-wake disturbances, using continuous or categorical variables.In a large sample of sedentary community-dwelling elderly adults with functional limitations, sleep-wake disturbances were prevalent but only mildly severe and were generally not associated with mobility impairment or physical inactivity. To evaluate sleep-wake disturbances in sedentary community-dwelling elderly adults with functional limitations.Cross-sectional.Lifestyle Interventions and Independence in Elder (LIFE) Study.Community-dwelling persons (mean age 78.9) who spent fewer than 20 min/wk in the previous month engaged in regular physical activity and fewer than 125 min/wk of moderate physical activity, and had a Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB) score of <10 (N = 1,635).Mobility was evaluated according to 400-m walk time (slow gait speed defined as <0.8 m/s) and SPPB score ( 7 defined moderate to severe mobility impairment).

THE NEED FOR ADAPTION: A CALL FOR PROMOTING THE VALUE OF BEHAVIORAL SCIENTISTS IN PUBLIC HEALTH CHALLENGES AND POLICIES. Obesity is an increasingly prevalent condition among older adults, yet relatively little is known about how built environment variables may be associated with obesity in older age groups. Each minute per day spent being sedentary was associated with increased HCHD risk among both those with (0.04%, 95% CI 0.02% to 0.05%) and those without (0.03%, 95% CI 0.02% to 0.03%) CVD. Ninety-five percent confidence intervals (CI) were estimated using Monte Carlo modeling with random variation for three variables (cost of an emergency department visit, cost of a sobering center visit, and start-up costs per sobering center visit) and the percentage of cases diverted from emergency departments to sobering centers.

Bott, N. T., Sheckter, C. C., Yang, D., Peters, S., Brady, B., Plowman, S., Borson, S., Leff, B., Kaplan, R. M., Platchek, T., Milstein, A. Gender, age, and scores on a short physical performance battery did not moderate these effects. Costs were estimated from medical records and self-reported health care use. Despite enthusiasm for cancer screening, systematic reviews consistently fail to show that screening reduces all-cause mortality. A randomized controlled trial is warranted to definitively resolve this issue. Because of our experience in family law, you can rely on us to do the right thing. Sink, K. M., Espeland, M. A., Castro, C. M., Church, T., Cohen, R., Dodson, J. Dr. Kaplan is expected to join the NIH in early 2011. No significant differences were found in 400-m walk time, SPPB score, or disability score between participants with and without MetS, in the overall sample or diabetes mellitus subgroups.Metabolic dysfunction is highly prevalent in older adults at risk of mobility disability, yet consistent associations were not observed between MetS and walking speed, lower extremity function, or self-reported disability after adjusting for known and potential confounders. Conjoint analysis is widely used in studies of consumer preference but has only recently been applied to measure patient utilities for health outcomes. The absence of interaction effects suggests that respondents consider the side effects and benefits independently. ICCs among clinics were at least as low (ICC < 0.013) as for interviewer measures (ICC < 0.023), reflecting good standardization.

The mean number of counts per minute of daily PA was not significantly associated with HCHD risk in any model (P>0.05). Identifying modifiable determinants of fat mass and muscle strength in older adults is important given their impact on physical functioning and health. We randomized a volunteer sample of 1635 sedentary men and women aged 70 to 89 years who had physical limitations, defined as a score on the Short Physical Performance Battery of 9 or below, but were able to walk 400 m.Participants were randomized to a structured, moderate-intensity physical activity program (n=818) conducted in a center (twice/wk) and at home (3-4 times/wk) that included aerobic, resistance, and flexibility training activities or to a health education program (n=817) consisting of workshops on topics relevant to older adults and upper extremity stretching exercises.The primary outcome was major mobility disability objectively defined by loss of ability to walk 400 m.Incident major mobility disability occurred in 30.1% (246 participants) of the physical activity group and 35.5% (290 participants) of the health education group (hazard ratio [HR], 0.82 [95% CI, 0.69-0.98], P=.03).Persistent mobility disability was experienced by 120 participants (14.7%) in the physical activity group and 162 participants (19.8%) in the health education group (HR, 0.72 [95% CI, 0.57-0.91]; P=.006). A consequence of neglecting to employ standardized cost-effectiveness analysis is that behavioral, psychological, and environmental interventions may be left out of resource allocation discussions. Measures of physical function included usual-paced gait speed and performance on the Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB). After checking Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, we used using linear regression to evaluate the genotype*treatment interaction for each outcome.

Robert M Kaplan Forensic Psychiatrist Clinical Associate Professor Graduate School of Medicine University of Wollongong MetS was associated with stronger grip strength (mean difference () = 1.2 kg, P = .01) in the overall sample and in participants without diabetes mellitus and with poorer self-rated health ( = 0.1 kg, P < .001) in the overall sample only. Methods. Cost savings were measured as reduced spending by payers. These interventions illustrate differences in the availability of cost and cost-effectiveness data and in the extent of intervention adoption and integration into routine delivery of medical care. Intoxicated individuals without other medical needs may not require the high level of care provided by an emergency department. Fragoso, C. A., Miller, M. E., Fielding, R. A., King, A.

Cost-effectiveness of the LIFE Physical Activity Intervention for Older Adults at Increased Risk for Mobility Disability. However, the interaction between mental health functioning and chronic disease diagnoses was statistically significant for only three conditions and accounted for only a small variation in cost.

Health Care Is Failing the Most Vulnerable Patients: Three Underused Solutions. The mental component summary (MCS) score of the 12-item Short Form (SF-12) was used as a measure of mental health status. Conclusions. However, a significant interaction was observed between sex and count frequency (P=0.036) for those without CVD, as counts per minute was related to HCHD risk in women (=-0.94, -1.48 to -0.41; P<0.001) but not in men (=-0.14, -0.59 to 0.88; P=0.704).Daily time spent being sedentary is positively associated with predicted 10-year HCHD risk among mobility-limited older adults.

The impact of cognitive behavioral group training on event-free survival in patients with myocardial infarction: The ENRICHD experience. Our results indicate that mindfulness meditation and physical exercise function in part by different mechanisms, with PE increasing physical fitness and IBMT inducing plasticity in the central nervous systems. He joined the HBS faculty in 1984 after spending 16 years on the faculty of the business school at Carnegie-Mellon University, where he served as Dean from 1977 to 1983. We randomized a total of 412 adults aged 70-89 years at elevated risk for mobility disability to either a physical activity or a successful aging educational control intervention for 12 months. Studies identified as effectiveness, efficacy, or both differed on three outcome measures: the inclusion criteria were lengthier for efficacy than for effectiveness studies; efficacy studies were more likely to have a placebo control condition than effectiveness studies; and the journal impact factor was lower for effectiveness studies than for studies from the efficacy search or studies identified by both searches.CONCLUSIONS: Efficacy and effectiveness research hypothetically use different methodologies, but the efficacy and effectiveness literatures in the treatment of depression were comparable for most of the coded characteristics. The Pittsburgh Fatigability Scale measured physical and mental fatigability (score 0-50; higher physical fatigability15; higher mental fatigability13).

M., Rejeski, W., Katula, J. Pending further verification, the results may help to inform subsequent targeting of such subgroups for further investigation.Clinicaltrials.gov Identifier= NCT01072500. Secondary analyses classified intervention participants into two subgroups, (1) individual therapy only or (2) group training (i.e., coping skills training) plus individual therapy, to determine whether medical outcomes differed in participants who received the combination of group training and individual therapy compared to participants who received individual therapy only or usual care.Secondary analyses of 1243 usual care, 781 individual therapy only, and 356 group plus individual therapy myocardial infarction (MI) patients were performed.
