Dependent variables were blood lipids, fasting glucose, blood pressure, presence of at least 3 metabolic syndrome (MetS) criteria, and other chronic conditions.A significantly higher likelihood of having abdominal obesity criteria in NDYN-NO compared with DYN-NO groups (55.6 vs 45.1%, P.01) was observed. In this report, we offer three examples of how economic data could promote greater adoption of behavioral and psychosocial interventions in clinical settings where primary or specialty medical care is delivered to patients. Results of baseline fatigue by intervention interaction was MMD (P=.18) and PMMD (P=.05).CONCLUSION: A long-term moderate intensity PA intervention was particularly effective at preserving mobility in older adults with higher levels of baseline fatigue. 12. The objective of this study is to describe and examine correlates of health-related quality of life in this population subgroup using baseline data from a larger intervention study.The Lifestyle Interventions and Independence for Elders-Pilot study (LIFE-P) was a randomized controlled trial that compared a physical activity intervention to a non-exercise educational intervention among 424 older adults at risk for disability. His funeral. Biography. Additionally, NDYN-O demonstrated higher diastolic blood pressure compared with DYN-O (70.910.1 vs 67.79.7, P.001). Total score was calculated by averaging across questions; baseline fatigue was based on the median split: 2 or higher=more fatigue (N=856) and lower than 2=less fatigue (N=735). In older adults reduced mobility is common and is an independent risk factor for morbidity, hospitalization, disability, and mortality. by Robert M.

L., Fitch, M., Singletary, F. F., Causer, J., Radcliff, K. A., Newman, A. (Am J Public Health. The Lifestyle Interventions and Independence for Elders study recently demonstrated that a physical activity (PA) intervention can delay the onset of major mobility disability. There was no evidence of recovery to prehospitalization levels (time effect p >.41). Comparison of Rating Scale, Time Tradeoff, and Conjoint Analysis Methods for Assessment of Preferences in Prostate Cancer. Robert Kaplan is Managing Director of Cape Gate Fence & Wire Works, and is a past president of the Cape Chamber of Industries. We here illustrate a quantification of the difference between objective and subjective risks.The objective risks (or chances) can be obtained from traditional 22 tables by calculating the positive (+LR) and negative (-LR) likelihood ratios. Physical activity was measured by step count and minutes of moderate-intensity activity using accelerometers.Main Outcomes and Measures: The primary outcome was change in eGFRCysC. Eight conditions (arthritis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease [COPD], high cholesterol, cancer, diabetes, stroke, coronary heart disease, and asthma) were analyzed separately.RESULTS: For each analysis, presence or absence of the chronic condition had a strong impact on cost. Older people who lose mobility are less likely to remain in the community; demonstrate higher rates of morbidity, mortality, and hospitalizations; and experience a poorer quality of life. To test whether a long term, structured physical activity program compared with a health education program reduces the risk of serious fall injuries among sedentary older people with functional limitations.Multicenter, single blinded randomized trial (Lifestyle Interventions and Independence for Elders (LIFE) study).Eight centers across the United States, February 2010 to December 2011.1635 sedentary adults aged 70-89 years with functional limitations, defined as a short physical performance battery score 9, but who were able to walk 400 m.A permuted block algorithm stratified by field center and sex was used to allocate interventions. We had a great time on holiday in Kwazulu-Natal as well. He is also a Distinguished Emeritus Professor of Health Services and Medicine at UCLA, where he led the UCLA/RAND AHRQ health services training program and the UCLA/RAND CDC Prevention Research Center. Fields of study that have received more extramural funding are associated with greater growth in faculty and higher faculty salaries. Acute alcohol intoxication is responsible for a sizable share of emergency department visits. Primary Residence: New York, NY.

Application of standardized methods of cost-effectiveness analysis will allow direct comparisons between investing in behavioral interventions programs in comparison to a wide range of other alternatives. OBJECTIVES: To determine the economic benefit of "modern" nonemergency medical transportation (NEMT) that utilizes digital transportation networks compared with traditional NEMT in the United States.METHODS: We used the National Academies' NEMT cost-effectiveness model to perform a baseline cost savings analysis for provision of NEMT for transportation-disadvantaged Medicaid beneficiaries. Associations between these exposures and measured BMI and grip strength were evaluated using linear regression.Greater time spent in light intensity activity and lower sedentary times were both associated with lower BMI. Moreover, among obese older adults, dynapenia was associated with lower risk of meeting MetS criteria for waist circumference and diastolic blood pressure. Identifying modifiable determinants of fat mass and muscle strength in older adults is important given their impact on physical functioning and health. Despite enthusiasm for cancer screening, systematic reviews consistently fail to show that screening reduces all-cause mortality. The MAT-sf was administered at baseline; MMD, operationalized as failure to complete the 400-m walk 15 minutes, was evaluated at 6-month intervals across a period of 42 months. Lawyer Robert M. Kaplan, graduated from Rutgers University, B.A., 1977 Rutgers University Law School, J.D., 1980, is now employed by Margolis Edelstein at 100 Century Parkway, Suite 200 Mount Laurel, NJ 08054. Previous observations of male predominance have typically been derived from clinic populations that are less representative of the US race/ethnicity distribution and based on disease ascertainment tools that may have identified subjects later in their disease course. In the USA, ClinicalTrials.gov increases transparency through mandatory prospective trial registration and outcome reporting. Symptoms of lack of positive affect decreased more in men compared to women, particularly in those possessing the 5-HTT L allele, but the effect did not differ by intervention arm. Epidemiological evidence suggests that physical activity benefits cognition, but results from randomized trials are limited and mixed.To determine whether a 24-month physical activity program results in better cognitive function, lower risk of mild cognitive impairment (MCI) or dementia, or both, compared with a health education program.A randomized clinical trial, the Lifestyle Interventions and Independence for Elders (LIFE) study, enrolled 1635 community-living participants at 8 US centers from February 2010 until December 2011. However, in analyses that were not prespecified, sex specific differences were observed for rates of all serious fall injuries (rate ratio 0.54, 95% confidence interval 0.31 to 0.95 in men; 1.07, 0.75 to 1.53 in women; P=0.043 for interaction), fall related fractures (0.47, 0.25 to 0.86 in men; 1.12, 0.77 to 1.64 in women; P=0.017 for interaction), and fall related hospital admissions (0.41, 0.19 to 0.89 in men; 1.10, 0.65 to 1.88 in women; P=0.039 for interaction).In this trial, which was underpowered to detect small, but possibly important reductions in serious fall injuries, a structured physical activity program compared with a health education program did not reduce the risk of serious fall injuries among sedentary older people with functional limitations.

This study aimed to evaluate the association of ACE I/D genotypes with changes in physical function among Caucasian older adults (n = 283) following 12 mo of either structured, multimodal physical activity or health education. Implementing sobering centers as a treatment alternative for individuals with uncomplicated acute alcohol intoxication could yield substantial cost savings for the U.S. health care system. A/ PROFESSOR ROBERT KAPLAN www.MEDirect.com.au P 1300 001 633 E bookings@MEDirect.com.au . Effect of Hospitalizations on Physical Activity Patterns in Mobility-Limited Older Adults. This paper describes the methods employed in the delivery of the LIFE Study PA intervention, providing insight into how we promoted adherence and monitored the fidelity of treatment. Results of prior research have been mixed, including findings of a 3:1 incidence ratio for males vs. females, but increasing AS rates among females.METHODS: We estimated the incidence of AS in a retrospective cohort study of diverse, working-age US military service members during March 2014 - June 2017 (N = 728,556) who underwent clinical practice guideline-directed screening for chronic back pain. 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. Physical Activity and Performance Impact Long-term Quality of Life in Older Adults at Risk for Major Mobility Disability. Using data from the nationally representative Medical Expenditures Panel Survey (MEPS), we explored the extent to which health care utilization and health risk-taking, together with previously examined mediators, can explain the education-health gradient above and beyond what can be explained by previously examined mediators such as age, race, and poverty status.Health was measured using the Physical Component Score (PCS) from the Medical Outcomes Study 12-Item Short Form (SF-12).

Prof. Robert Kaplan will be presenting LIVE in South Africa on 17 September 2015, delivering his world renowned lecture on Strategy Execution. #204. The November 2020 report, 'Modernization of the TRICARE Benefit', specifies a rubric to evaluate these value-based care initiatives not only in traditional measures of effectiveness but also in terms of the Defense Health Agency's Quadruple Aim with its focus on readiness. B., Rejeski, W. J., Sink, K. M., Williamson, J. D. Sleep-Wake Disturbances in Sedentary Community-Dwelling Elderly Adults with Functional Limitations. The methods are general and can be used to estimate the cost-effectiveness of social and environmental interventions in addition to traditional medical and surgical treatments. Using hospital discharge data for the period 2007-16, we compared acute myocardial infarction (AMI) hospitalization rates in San Diego County and the rest of the state before and after the demonstration project started.

Porzsolt, F., Pfuhl, G., Kaplan, R. M., Eisemann, M. The terminology conflict on efficacy and effectiveness in healthcare. The average cost/participant was $1134 and $175 for the PA and the comparison interventions, respectively. Buford, T. W., Hsu, F., Brinkley, T. E., Carter, C. S., Church, T. S., Dodson, J. A 'safety loop' model postulates risk-related decisions are not based on objective and measurable risks but on the subjective perception of those risks. It could be used to clinically identify older adults that are in need of intervention for MMD and provides a simple means for monitoring the status of patients' mobility, an important dimension of functional health. The mental component summary (MCS) score of the 12-item Short Form (SF-12) was used as a measure of mental health status. Genotype frequencies [II (19.4%), ID (42.4%), DD (38.2%)] were in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (P > 0.05). The ICERS are less than many commonly recommended medical treatments. Additionally, the presence of dynapenia did not increase cardiometabolic disease risk in either obese or nonobese older adults. The University of Wollongong expert, who is well known for his work studying the Spanish Flu and Encephalitis lethargica epidemics, fears another epidemic is just around the corner. To advance the field, we need a greater emphasis on evaluations that ask 'Does the treatment work under real-world conditions? B., Studenski, S. A., Goodpaster, B. H., Lopez, O., Nadkarni, N.

This multisite RCT compared physical activity to health education among 1,635 randomly assigned sedentary older adults at risk for mobility disability in 2010-2011. His 20 books and over 560 articles or chapters have been cited more than 55,000 times (H-index>100) and the ISI includes him in the listing of the most cited authors in his field (defined as above the 99.5th percentile). Measures included demographics; comorbidity; a timed 400-meter walk; the Short Physical Performance Battery; and the Quality of Well-Being Scale (0-1.0 scale). The plethora of HRQoL measures has impeded cumulative science because incomparable measures have been used in different studies. National Institutes of Health Director Francis S. Collins, M.D., Ph.D., announced today the appointment of Robert M. Kaplan, Ph.D., as Director, Office of Behavioral and Social Sciences Research (OBSSR) and NIH Associate Director for Behavioral and Social Sciences Research. He is a past President of several organizations, including the American Psychological Association Division of Health Psychology, Section J of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (Pacific), the International Society for Quality of Life Research, the Society for Behavioral Medicine, and the Academy of Behavioral Medicine Research. Prevalence rates were 33.0% for insomnia, 18.1% for daytime drowsiness, 47.8% for poor sleep quality, and 32.9% for high risk of sleep apnea. Fremont, A., Kim, A. Y., Bailey, K., Hanley, H.

J., Katula, J. 1968-1973 PUBLICATIONS BOOKS . We defined incident MMD as the inability to walk 400-m at follow-up visits; PMMD was defined as two consecutive walk failures. Age-stratified recursive partitioning methods were applied to identify distinct subgroups with varying obesity prevalence.Among participants aged 70-78 years, four distinct subgroups, defined by combinations of perceived environment and race-ethnicity variables, were identified.
