Design and implementation of a multi-country targeted health facility assessment to measure integrated, people-centered, quality of services

Shivam Gupta, Japneet Kaur, Rohit Jain, Alexander K. Rowe, Pankhuri Jha, Rasheed Raji, Arjun Arakal, Chris White, Marasi Mwencha, Shunsuke Mabuchi

Integrated, people-centred, high-quality health services are essential to achieving universal health coverage, yet traditional health facility assessments often focus on structural inputs and are too resource-intensive to support frequent, programmatic use. The Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis (TB), and Malaria developed the Targeted Health Facility Assessment (tHFA) to inform country plans and monitor progress on the Global Fund Strategy (2023–2028) of maximizing people-centred integrated systems for health …

A ritual way of ageing well: a qualitative study of a comprehensive, culturally grounded ritual-based health programme for older adults in urban China

Xusheng Zhang, Qi Wang

Introduction Rapid population ageing, urban migration, and the weakening of multigenerational households have left many older adults in Chinese cities facing intertwined physical decline, psychological distress, social loss, and a diminished sense of purpose. Conventional responses tend to be specialized and clinical and are often experienced by older Chinese adults as fragmented, unfamiliar, or stigmatizing. Collective ritual, defined as structured group practices using culturally familiar forms, such as greeting, …

Silent neurovestibular frailty: a conceptual model integrating vestibular dysfunction, dual-task mobility and cognitive load as candidate contributors to falls, delirium and functional decline in older adults

Samaher Mohammed Alowaydhah, Ugwu Okechukwu Paul-Chima, Abdulmajeed Alfayyadh, Sulaiman Alanazi

Falls, delirium and functional decline are commonly treated as distinct geriatric outcomes despite sharing vulnerabilities in sensory integration, gait regulation, attention and physiological reserve. We propose silent neurovestibular frailty as a conceptual model describing a latent ageing phenotype in which vestibular dysfunction, dual-task gait deterioration and sensitivity to cognitive load interact before overt disability becomes apparent. This construct is presented as a hypothesis-generating framework rather …

Effect of Watch–Assess–Need Intervention–Think Model Education and Training Program for Family Caregivers in Dementia Care

Yueh-Ying Yang, Jing-Jy Wang, Chao-Fen Pan, Ya-Ping Yang

Most family caregivers of people living with dementia in Taiwan only receive initial dementia-related information after diagnosis, with limited subsequent training in dementia care management, which may contribute to caregiver stress. The purpose of this study is to test the effectiveness of the Watch–Assess–Need Intervention–Think (WANT) model education and training program in enhancing family caregivers’ dementia care competence and self-efficacy. A pre-post experimental design was conducted with a mixed-methods …

Altered activation patterns of sensorimotor cortex during level walking and stair climbing in patients with knee osteoarthritis: a cross-sectional study

Liming Jiang, Kun Yang, Tianzhong Zi, Yanuo Li, Jiayi Xia, Sizhong Wang

Background Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) is characterized not only by peripheral joint pathology but also by mechanisms related to central sensitization. Previous studies have reported reduced activation of sensorimotor cortex during isolated joint movements in patients with KOA. However, cortical activation during walking remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate sensorimotor cortex activation during different walking tasks in patients with KOA to identify potential targets for central interventions. Methods Ni …

A social network analysis of rural dementia‐related home‐ and community‐based service providers

Beth Prusaczyk, Jessica Thein, Bobbi J. Carothers

Abstract INTRODUCTION The rural United States has a higher proportion of older adults than urban areas, and rural older adults have a higher risk of dementia. These areas also have fewer dementia‐related services and fragmented care networks. We investigated how a rural dementia‐related home‐ and community‐based service network collaborates to provide care. METHODS A cross‐sectional social network analysis of 45 home‐ and community‐based service organizations that provide dementia‐related care across rural Southern …

Polypharmacy, medication adherence, and inappropriate drug use in geriatric patients: A cross-sectional study in a tertiary care hospital

Vaibhavkumar Patel, Isha Goswami, Shivangi Goswami, Viraj Parmar, Maria Bairaktari, Ruchi Yadav, Nipul Kapadia, Ankit Chaudhary

Abstract Introduction: Polypharmacy, which means taking several medications at the same time, creates serious challenges for older adults. It can reduce the effectiveness of health care and affect their overall well-being. According to the World Health Organization, polypharmacy is linked to problems such as falls, longer hospital stays, and poor medication adherence.

A minimal three-arm oral regimen for healthspan: mechanistic alignment with transcriptomic signals from a large parental-lifespan GWAS

Ngo Cheung

A large genome-wide association study of parental lifespan was reported in 2019. A later transcriptome-wide association study (TWAS) based on those summary statistics identified a set of transcriptional programs associated with longer genetically predicted survival, including increased brain NAD + salvage, especially NMNAT2, reduced glucose-stimulated insulin secretion, a shift toward synaptic pruning with less broad plasticity, and a glial pattern characterized by relatively greater microglial and lower astrocytic …

Participatory Action Research with people experiencing food poverty: methodological reflections from two studies

Yassir Sefu, Evelyn Markoni, Sara Smaal, Esther J. Veen

Food poverty undermines physical health, social participation and dignity. Whereas most studies treat affected individuals as respondents, Participatory Action Research (PAR) invites them to act as co-researchers. This article reflects on PAR methodology by discussing two PAR projects: one in the city of Bern (Switzerland) and one in Almere (the Netherlands). Both projects engaged adults experiencing poverty to discuss their dietary practices, reflect on access to healthy food in their respective environments and c …

Empowering MENA’s future: how financial inclusion bridges the aging population and economic growth from public good theory

Ismail Khan, Haseeb Ur Rahman, Naveed R. Rehman, Mustafa Rehman Khan

Purpose Despite the growing body of literature on population age structure (PAS) and economic growth, empirical evidence on the role of financial inclusion (FI) in moderating the effect is quite scarce, particularly for the Middle East/North Africa (MENA) region. This study aims to investigate the moderating impact of FI on the relationship between PAS and economic growth from the perspective of public good (PG) theory in MENA countries.
