Epigenetic age predicts depressive symptoms during the COVID-19 pandemic in the Canadian Longitudinal Study on Aging: importance of biological sex

Cindy K. Barha, Teresa Liu‐Ambrose, Amy M. Inkster, Ryan S. Falck et autres

Epigenetic age is a biological metric of overall health and may predict mental health responses to unprecedented stressors. We sought to determine whether epigenetic age acceleration can predict older adults' trajectory of depressive symptoms before and during the COVID-19 pandemic, and whether …

Estimation of Survival with Parkinson’s disease in the Canadian Longitudinal Study on Aging: An analysis using only current disease durations observed at baseline

James H. McVittie, David B. Wolfson, Ronald B. Postuma, Christina Wolfson

ABSTRACT Previous studies of survival with Parkinson’s disease (PD) have relied primarily on survival data from incident PD cohort studies with follow-up, prevalent PD cohort studies with follow-up, or a combination of these two study types. Each imposes logistical and resource constraints …

The COVID-19 pandemic's effects on cognition and 24-hour movement behaviours: Findings from the CLSA

Ryan S. Falck, Megan E. O’Connell, Vanessa Taler, Parminder Raina et autres

BACKGROUND: The COVID-19 pandemic may have negatively impacted cognition due to pandemic-associated changes in 24-h movement behaviours (i.e., physical activity, sedentary behaviour, and sleep). Whether the pandemic's effects vary by age and sex is unclear. METHODS: We examined those participants (aged 45-85 …

UNMASKING THE CONSEQUENCES OF THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC ON COGNITION AND 24-HOUR BEHAVIORS: INSIGHTS FROM THE CLSA

Ryan S. Falck, Teresa Liu‐Ambrose, Megan E. O’Connell, Eric E. Smith et autres

Abstract An unintended side-effect of the COVID-19 pandemic has been changes in lifestyle factors which impact middle-aged and older adult cognition – including changes in 24-hour behaviours (i.e., physical activity, sedentary behaviour, and sleep). In a longitudinal analysis of the Canadian Longitudinal …

Characterization of depression subtypes and their relationships to stressor profiles among middle-aged and older adults: An analysis of the canadian longitudinal study on aging (CLSA)

G. Spiegler, Yingying Su, Muzi Li, Christina Wolfson et autres

The current diagnostic criteria for depression do not sufficiently reflect its heterogeneous clinical presentations. Associations between adverse childhood experiences (ACEs), allostatic load (AL), and depression subtypes have not been extensively studied. Depression subtypes were determined based on clinical presentations, and their relationships …

Prevalence and population attributable fractions of potentially modifiable risk factors for dementia in Canada: a cross-sectional analysis of the Canadian Longitudinal Study on Aging

Yasaman Dolatshahi, Alexandra Mayhew, Megan E. O’Connell, Teresa Liu‐Ambrose et autres

Abstract Background Identification and assessment of modifiable risk factors for dementia is a public health priority in Canada and worldwide. We investigated the prevalence and population attributable fraction (PAF) of 12 potentially modifiable risk factors for all-cause dementia in middle-aged and older …
