Abstract

Purpose This study was aimed at determining the presence of cognitive frailty and its associated factors among community-dwelling older adults from the "LRGS-Towards Useful Aging (TUA)" longitudinal study. Patients and methods The available data related to cognitive frailty among a sub-sample of older adults aged 60 years and above (n=815) from two states in Malaysia were analysed. In the LRGS-TUA study, a comprehensive interview-based questionnaire was administered to obtain the socio-demographic information of the participants, followed by assessments to examine the cognitive function, functional status, dietary intake, lifestyle, psychosocial status and biomarkers associated with cognitive frailty. The factors associated with cognitive frailty were assessed using a bivariate logistic regression (BLR). Results The majority of the older adults were categorized as robust (68.4%), followed by cognitively pre-frail (37.4%) and cognitively frail (2.2%). The data on the cognitively frail and pre-frail groups were combined for comparison with the robust group. A hierarchical BLR indicated that advancing age (OR=1.04, 95% CI:1.01-1.08, p

Abstract

In this study, we aim to assess general psychological health, associated factors, and the potential of coping strategies as a mediator for middle-aged and older Malaysian adults during the COVID-19 pandemic. A total of 535 individuals aged 52 years and above from the previous cohort and interventional studies in Peninsular Malaysia were contacted during the Movement Control Order (MCO) issued during the COVID-19 pandemic. Telephonic interviews were conducted to obtain participant information concerning socio-demography, physical activity, subjective well-being (SWB) as assessed using flourishing scale, coping strategies, and general psychological health (GHQ-12). Simple linear regression (SLR) and multiple linear regression (MLR) analyses were performed to identify the factors associated with GHQ-12. The associated factors were further analysed using mediation analysis to determine the potential of coping strategies as a mediator. It was observed that participants had a low mean GHQ-12 score (M = 0.80, SD = 2.19), indicating good psychological health. Living arrangement, physical activity, and flourishing scale were associated with psychological health (R2 = 0.412, p < 0.05) in MLR. Positive reinterpretation, emotional support, instrumental support, humour, denial, and self-blame appear to partially mediate the relationship between socio-demography, physical activity, flourishing scale and GHQ-12, with lower coefficient values. Middle-aged and older adults in Malaysia had good psychological health during the COVID-19 pandemic, especially when living with family, physically active, and having good subjective well-being. These findings provide the initial evidence to help promote the ageing population's general well-being and mental health and enable them to cope with change during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Abstract

Myasthenia gravis (MG) is an immune mediated neuromuscular disease causing fatiguability, which can influence quality of life (QOL). MG disease status can be established with Myasthenia Gravis Quality of Life (MGQOL) 15 and Myasthenia Gravis Activities of Daily Living (MGADL) questionnaires to measure patients' perception of MG-related dysfunction. This study aims to validate the translated Malay versions of the MGQOL15 and MGADL for use in Malay-speaking MG patients. By using the cross cultural adaptation process, both questionnaires were translated into Malay language. Two sets of MGQOL15 Malay version and MGADL Malay version were distributed to MG patients during their routine follow-up to be filled up one week apart. A total of 38 patients were recruited during this study comprising predominantly females compared to males (71% vs 29%) and Malays compared to non-Malays (60% vs 40%). The mean age was 52.5 years; with most of the patients in the 60-69 years old category (37%).The Spearman's correlation coefficient was 0.987 for MGQOL-15 Malay version and 0.976 for MGADL Malay version, while the internal consistency for MGQOL15 Malay version was 0.952-0.957, and 0.677-0.694 for MGADL Malay version. The MGQOL15 Malay version and MGADL Malay version are reliable and valid instruments for the measurement of quality of life in MG patients in the local setting. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
