Educational Intervention "Open Conversation and Reflection" to Enhance Person-Centeredness in Acute Geriatric Wards: A Qualitative Study of Consequences and Processes.
Palliat Med Rep
June 2025
Department of Geriatric Medicine, Ghent University Hospital, Ghent, Belgium.
Background: Person-centered supportive care for older persons with acute illness is much needed but not easily achieved.
Aims Of The Study: To uncover processes and consequences of an educational intervention in acute geriatric wards intended as an exposure experience.
Design: General inductive qualitative analysis was conducted on data from a four-step intervention: group coaching, an open conversation with a patient and family member (PT/FM), reflection on transcribed conversations with co-participant, and group peer reflection.
Aortic Valve Replacement with Annular Patch Reconstruction for Prosthetic Valve Endocarditis after the Bentall Procedure: A Case Series.
Surg Case Rep
August 2025
Department of Cardiac and Vascular Surgery, Dokkyo Medical University School of Medicine, Shimotsugagun, Tochigi, Japan.
Introduction: Prosthetic valve endocarditis following aortic root replacement (ARR) typically necessitates redo-ARR, which involves complete graft removal, extensive aortic root dissection, and coronary reimplantation. This highly invasive procedure carries substantial surgical risk, including high operative mortality. In select high-risk patients without evidence of prosthetic graft infection, alternative surgical strategies may reduce procedural complexity and improve outcomes.

Front Public Health
September 2025
Changzhou University, Changzhou, Jiangsu, China.
Objective: Insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) is thought to play an important role in regulating skeletal muscle mass and function, with its decline potentially linked to age-related frailty and sarcopenia. Given the limitations of pharmacological and nutritional interventions, exercise may serve as a potential non-pharmacological strategy to modulate IGF-1 levels. The purpose of this study is to systematically evaluates the effects of exercise interventions on serum IGF-1 levels in older adults with frailty and/or sarcopenia using a meta-analysis approach.

Sarcopenia is the progressive loss of skeletal muscle mass, strength, and function, significantly contributing to frailty, disability, and mortality in aging populations. As life expectancy rises, sarcopenia presents a growing public health challenge, increasing healthcare costs, and diminishing quality of life. Despite its prevalence, sarcopenia is often underdiagnosed due to limitations in current diagnostic tools, including the lack of standardized cut-off values and reliance on physical performance tests.

Ann Geriatr Med Res
September 2025
Institute of Health and Sport Sciences, University of Tsukuba, 1-1-1 Tennodai, Tsukuba, Ibaraki, Japan.
Background: Poor hand dexterity may increase the risk of functional disability; however, few studies have examined the relationship between hand dexterity and incident functional disability. The aim of this study was to prospectively investigate the dose-response association of hand dexterity with incident functional disability in community-dwelling older adults.
Methods: This study included 1,069 older adults aged ≥65 years in Kasama City, Japan.
