Mental and Physical Health Among Danish Transgender Persons Compared With Cisgender PersonsThis link opens in a new window CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE: This cohort study of Danish transgender persons and cisgender controls found significantly higher risks for mental and somatic health diagnoses among transgender persons. Coexistence of mental health outcomes and somatic health outcomes among transgender persons could be associated with stress encountered due to belonging to a gender identity or sexual orientation minority group; mental and physical morbidity should be considered an integrated part of transgender care.

Effects of exercise on cognition and Alzheimer's biomarkers in a randomized controlled trial of adults with mild cognitive impairment: The EXERT studyThis link opens in a new window INTRODUCTION: The EXERT study (Exercise in Adults with Mild Memory Problems) was a Phase 3, multicenter, randomized controlled trial that examined effects of exercise on cognition and other measures of brain health in sedentary older adults with amnestic mild cognitive impairment (MCI).

Effects of exercise versus usual care on older adults with amnestic mild cognitive impairment: EXERT versus ADNIThis link opens in a new window INTRODUCTION: EXERT was a multisite randomized controlled trial (RCT) examining the effects of moderate-high intensity aerobic training (AX) versus lower-intensity stretching/balance/range of motion (SBR) on cognitive trajectories in older adults with amnestic mild cognitive impairment (aMCI).

Multimorbidity patterns of mental disorders and physical diseases of adults in northeast China: a cross-sectional network analysisThis link opens in a new window CONCLUSIONS: The physical-mental multimorbidity network structure and the four patterns identified in this study align with previous research, though we observed notable differences in the proportion of these patterns. These variations highlight the importance of tailored interventions that address specific multimorbidity patterns while maintaining broader applicability to diverse populations. Apr 24, 2025
Anhedonia and PTSD symptom severity profiles differentially influence physical activity volume in trauma-exposed adultsThis link opens in a new window Background: It is well-established that adults with elevated psychiatric symptoms or a psychiatric disorder (e.g. depression) engage in lower amounts of physical activity (PA) compared to adults with fewer symptoms/no diagnosis. However, less is known about the association between psychiatric symptoms and PA behaviour in trauma-exposed adults. Most prior investigations have focused on independent associations between overall depression or posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms in relation... Apr 24, 2025
Optimizing midlife metabolic syndrome thresholds for dementia: a prospective study of two UK population-based cohortsThis link opens in a new window CONCLUSIONS: MetS in midlife is potentially an important target for dementia prevention. However, the thresholds for triglycerides and glucose that carry risk need to be tailored specifically for dementia. Apr 24, 2025
Global prevalence of female sexual dysfunction based on physical activity: a systematic review and meta-analysisThis link opens in a new window CONCLUSION: In this meta-analysis, the pooled prevalence of sexual dysfunction among inactive women was reported to be higher and more significant than that of physically active women. Thus, it is necessary for health policymakers to further promote the importance of physical activity to prevent and reduce female sexual dysfunction. Apr 24, 2025
Association Between Metabolic Syndrome and Young-Onset Dementia: A Nationwide Population-Based StudyThis link opens in a new window BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Young-onset dementia (YOD) poses substantial societal and health care burdens. Although metabolic syndrome (MetS) is recognized as a contributor to late-onset dementia, its effect on YOD remains unclear. This study aimed to determine whether MetS and its individual components increase the risk of YOD, including all-cause dementia, Alzheimer disease (AD), and vascular dementia (VaD). Apr 23, 2025
Influence of Dementia on Vision-Related Functional Performance Among Patients With Type 2 DiabetesThis link opens in a new window CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE: The findings illustrate the complex relationships among T2DM, dementia, VRQoL, and vision-dependent ADL and suggest that occupational therapists who care for patients with T2DM and dementia should pay close attention to patients' functional vision. Plain-Language Summary: Complications of Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) that lead to vision loss may increase the risk of dementia. People with T2DM and dementia show a significant decline in functional vision. This study... Apr 23, 2025
Multi-domain intervention program on cognitive function in community-dwelling older adults: Pilot studyThis link opens in a new window CONCLUSIONS: The results suggest that the 3-component program may be more effective than the control program in improving SMC and OCF. Apr 23, 2025
