Background: Maintaining functional status is an essential therapeutic goal in peri-operative care of older adults. Although several recommendations concerning peri-operative management are available, pragmatic approaches to their sustainable implementation are lacking.
Objective: Multiple evidence-based recommendations for peri-operative care of older adults were bundled into a multicomponent intervention and assessed for feasibility and effectiveness.
Substantial evidence indicates a huge potential for risk reduction of cognitive decline and dementia based on modifiable health and lifestyle factors. To maximize the chances for risk reduction, it is useful to investigate associations of social determinants and lifestyle for brain health. We computed the "LIfestyle for BRAin health" (LIBRA) score for baseline participants of the Leipzig Research Centre for Civilization Diseases (LIFE) Adult Study, a population-based urban cohort in Germany.

- Psychosocial stressors in the workplace, like conflicts with coworkers or supervisors, can negatively impact mental health, specifically increasing the risk of depression, but studies have varied in their assessment methods.
- This research utilized data from a large study in Leipzig, Germany, analyzing the relationship between workplace conflicts and depressive symptoms, while examining factors such as gender differences, personality traits, and social resources.
- The results indicated no significant association between workplace conflicts and depressive symptoms; instead, individual factors like neuroticism and social resources were more crucial in explaining the risk of depression, with slightly more explanatory power observed in women.
Purpose: The aim of this study was to test psychometric properties of the Satisfaction with Life Scale (SWLS), to provide normative values, and to analyze associations between life satisfaction and sociodemographic and behavioral data.
Methods: A German community sample (n = 9711) with an age range of 18-80 years was surveyed using the SWLS and several other questionnaires. Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) was used to test the dimensionality of the SWLS.
Background: The level of mental demands in the workplace is rising. The present study investigated whether and how mental demands at work are associated with cognitive functioning in the general population.
Methods: The analysis is based on data of the Health Study of the Leipzig Research Centre for Civilization Disease (LIFE).
