Article Abstract

The pathogenesis of various chronic diseases is closely associated with aging. Aging of the cardiovascular system promotes the development of severe cardiovascular diseases with high mortality, including atherosclerosis, coronary heart disease, and myocardial infarction. Similarly, aging of the nervous system promotes the development of neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease, which seriously impairs cognitive function. Aging of the musculoskeletal system is characterized by decreased function and mobility. The molecular basis of organ aging is cellular senescence, which involves multiple cellular and molecular mechanisms, such as impaired autophagy, metabolic imbalance, oxidative stress, and persistent inflammation. Given the ongoing demographic shift toward an aging society, strategies to delay or reduce the effects of aging have gained significance. Lifestyle modifications, such as exercise and calorie restriction, are now recognized for their anti-aging effects, their capacity to reduce modification, their potential to prolong lifespan, and their capacity to lower the risk of cardiovascular disease. This review elucidates the molecular mechanisms and application significance of various anti-aging approaches at the molecular level, based on research progress in aging. It aims to provide a reference for the prevention and treatment of age-related diseases in progressively aging societies.

Background: Atherosclerosis, a leading cause of cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality worldwide, is characterized by dysregulated lipid metabolism and unresolved inflammation. Macrophage-derived foam cell formation and apoptosis contribute to plaque formation and vulnerability. Elevated serum galectin-3 (Gal-3) levels are associated with increased CVD risk, and Gal-3 in plaques is strongly associated with macrophages.

Background: Existing longitudinal cohort study data and associated biospecimen libraries provide abundant opportunities to efficiently examine new hypotheses through retrospective specimen testing. Outcome-dependent sampling (ODS) methods offer a powerful alternative to random sampling when testing all available specimens is not feasible or biospecimen preservation is desired. For repeated binary outcomes, a common ODS approach is to extend the case-control framework to the longitudinal setting.

Background: Every year in France, 40% of people aged ≥80 years are hospitalized, with an average length of hospital stay of 25 days and a readmission rate of 14% to 30% within the month following discharge. This situation is putting pressure on the health care system, encouraging the reinforcement of home care to reduce avoidable hospitalization. The EPOCA remote patient monitoring (RPM) system is a medical and social telehealth solution specialized in RPM, teleconsultation, tele-expertise, and care coordination in emergency medicine and geriatrics.

Aging Amidst Anti-Trans Legislation: Strategies for Safeguarding the Mental Health of Transgender Older Adults.

Am J Public Health

October 2025

Nik M. Lampe is with the Department of Behavioral Health Science & Practice, University of South Florida, Tampa, Florida. J. E. Sumerau is with the Department of Sociology at the University of Tampa, Tampa, Florida.

This study investigates how transgender older adults manage and protect their mental health amid anti-trans stigma, discrimination, and legislation in the United States. Using semi-structured, individual interviews with 47 transgender older adults, two key strategies emerged: (1) defining transgender identities, bodies, and experiences as life-affirming; and (2) cultivating transgender-inclusive social support networks. Results from the study expand public health research by pinpointing the mental health management strategies that transgender older adults use to mitigate the negative impacts of anti-trans sociopolitical climates.

Background And Objectives: The relationship between insomnia and cognitive decline is poorly understood. We investigated associations between chronic insomnia, longitudinal cognitive outcomes, and brain health in older adults.

Methods: From the population-based Mayo Clinic Study of Aging, we identified cognitively unimpaired older adults with or without a diagnosis of chronic insomnia who underwent annual neuropsychological assessments (z-scored global cognitive scores and cognitive status) and had quantified serial imaging outcomes (amyloid-PET burden [centiloid] and white matter hyperintensities from MRI [WMH, % of intracranial volume]).
