Ageing, autoimmunity and arthritis: senescence of the B cell compartment - implications for humoral immunity.

Immunosenescence is associated with a decline in both T and B lymphocyte function. Although aged individuals have normal numbers of B cells in the periphery and are capable of mounting robust humoral responses, the antibodies produced are generally of lower affinity and are less protective than those produced by young animals. Here we review multiple studies that address the mechanisms that contribute to this decline. Taken together, these studies suggest that age-associated loss of the ability to generate protective humoral immunity results in part from reduced B lymphopoiesis. As the output

Perceptions of Older Adults with Hematological Cancer on Diet and Exercise Behavior and Its Role in Navigating Daily Tasks.

Diet and exercise are associated with the maintenance of physical function, independence and better health-related quality of life in cancer survivors. Adherence to healthy diet and exercise guidelines, however, remains low. The aim of this study was to explore the perceptions of hematological cancer survivors (HCS, ≥50 years) on the role of diet and exercise in navigating daily tasks using a qualitative descriptive research method. Eligible HCS completed an online survey gathering demographic information including physical functioning, exercise frequency, malnutrition and frailty risk. Follow

Alcohol Misuse in Older Women: A Scoping Review of Correlates, Consequences, Treatment, and Prevention.

BackgroundAlcohol use and alcohol use disorder (AUD) among older women (defined as age 50 and over) have increased substantially in recent years. Compared to men and younger women, older women negotiate biopsychosocial transitions that put them at greater risk of alcohol-related health conditions as they age and are less reliably screened and treated for heavy alcohol use and AUD.ObjectivesThis scoping review represents a critical evaluation of research methodology and findings since 2004 on biopsychosocial correlates and consequences of alcohol misuse (i.e., heavy alcohol use, defined as four

Prognostic disclosure in cancer care: a systematic literature review.

BackgroundCollusion in cancer care is the diplomatic concealment of information between a triad of the health care professional (HCP), patient, and caregiver. Free and expressive communication is determined by multiple factors, which establishes a healthy balance between 'patient-centric' and 'family-centric' decision making. The lack of a universal approach to prognostic disclosure techniques emphasizes the need for a systematic review of contemporary practice.MethodsA systematic review of the literature was conducted till June 2020 using themes based on cancer, communication, prognostic disc

Поддержка со стороны сверстников в хронических условиях с точки зрения сверстников: систематический обзор.

Цель: Поддержка со стороны сверстников может стать ценным дополнением к обычному уходу за пациентами с хроническими заболеваниями. Хотя выгоды, связанные с поддержкой со стороны сверстников, хорошо задокументированы, в большинстве исследований основное внимание уделяется интересам получателей помощи. Учитывая центральную роль, которую играют сторонники из числа сверстников, их опыт следует рассматривать как не менее важный. В рамках этого систематического обзора обобщается имеющаяся литература, посвященная опыту сочувствующих друг другу лиц с хроническими заболеваниями. Метод: Мы проводили сис
