Older people in poor areas 'twice as likely to feel lonely during lockdown'

Older people in the poorest parts of England were more than twice as likely to feel isolated and lonely during the first coronavirus lockdown than those in the richest areas, research has suggested.
A third (33%) of older people in the poorest 20% of areas felt isolated during the first lockdown, according to research led by University College London (UCL) and the University of Manchester.
This compares to 16% of those in the richest quintile.
Researchers analysed data from 4,709 men and women aged over 50 who were part of the English Longitudinal Study of Ageing (ELSA) before the pandemic and during the first two lockdowns in 2020.

Under-30s less compliant with Covid rules, UK data shows

Last modified on Mon 19 Apr 2021 10.07 EDT
People under 30 were less compliant with Covid rules over the past year, according to survey data from more than 50,000 adults in the UK.
While the still to be peer-reviewed analysis suggests most people followed lockdown and social distancing rules, one in seven – about 15% – reported decreasing levels of compliance over time, particularly during the second wave.
These tended to be those under 30, in relatively good physical shape, who rated themselves as not particularly empathetic or conscientious but described themselves as risk-takers.
The vast majority of people had high, almost complete compliance throughout the pandemic. Many people said they had high compliance initially, which dipped over summer but increased again as the second lockdown was imposed, said the report’s lead author, Liam Wright, a research fellow in epidemiology and statistics at University College London.

Higher handgrip cutoff values found to be more accurate markers of mobility limitation in older adults

Higher handgrip cutoff values found to be more accurate markers of mobility limitation in older adults
Aging entails a loss of muscle mass and strength, which in some cases impairs mobility, hinders walking or performance of day-to-day tasks, and exposes the elderly to the risk of falls and hospitalizations.
In clinical practice, handgrip measurement is the most widely used method to identify loss of overall muscular strength in older people. Values below 26 kg for men and 16 kg for women have for some time been considered an indication of risk-associated weakness, but these parameters are being revised.
Researchers at the Federal University of São Carlos (UFSCar) in the state of São Paulo, Brazil, collaborating with colleagues at other institutions in the same state such as the University of São Paulo's Ribeirão Preto Medical School (FMRP-USP), Nursing School (EE-USP) and School of Public Health (FSP-USP), as well as University College London (UCL), have suggested higher handgrip cutoff values than those typically used by physicians, physical therapists and nutritionists. A higher cutoff permits early diagnosis and intervention to avert clinical progression.

When talking to someone, do you know when to shut up?

Dubai: Do you know when to shut up when talking to someone? And how do you know when your conversation buddy already wants you to stop talking?
These are some of the important questions researchers tried to answer in two recent experiments. It’s a established fact that social connection is key to physical and mental well-being, especially in these COVID times.
Overdoing it
And having a good conversation is the main route to that end. But it turns out many of us overdo it. In new experiments, behavioural scientists led by Harvard University’s Adam Mastroianni showed evidence of the propensity of people to yak way. The results show, for one, that chattiness is not really just one characteristic of certain personality types.
