Work-related biomechanical exposure and job strain in midlife separately and jointly predict disability after 28 years: a Finnish longitudinal study
2017
Objectives We investigated whether the extent of biomechanical exposures and job strain in midlife separately and jointly predict disability in old age. Methods Participants of the Finnish Longitudinal Study on Aging Municipal Employees (FLAME) in 1981 (aged 44–58 years) responded to disability questionnaires in 2009 (1850 women and 1082 men). Difficulties in performing five activities of daily living (ADL) and seven instrumental ADL (IADL) were used to assess severity of disability (score range: 0–12, 0=no disability). Information on biomechanical exposures and job strain was collected by questionnaire at baseline. Adjusted prevalence proportion ratios (PR) and 95% confidence intervals (95…

Effects of a Home-Based Physical Rehabilitation Program on Physical Disability After Hip Fracture: A Randomized Controlled Trial
2015
Abstract Objective Fewer than half of the patients with hip fracture will regain the prefracture level of physical functioning. This secondary analysis of a randomized controlled trial investigated the effects of a multicomponent home-based rehabilitation program (ProMo) on physical disability after hip fracture. Design Randomized, controlled, parallel-group trial. Setting Rehabilitation in participants' homes; measurements in university-based laboratory and local hospital. Participants Population-based clinical sample of community-dwelling people older than 60 years (n = 81) operated for hip fracture were randomized into intervention and control groups. Intervention The year-long intervent…

MMSE-testin yhteys ikääntyneiden ihmisten välineellisiin päivittäistoimintoihin
2013
Joka vuosi Suomessa diagnosoidaan yli 13 000 uutta muistisairasta. Voidaan puhua sekä kansanterveydellisestä että taloudellisesta haasteesta yhteiskunnalle. Muistisairauksia ei toistaiseksi osata parantaa lääkkeiden avulla, mutta varhaisella diagnosoinnilla, hoidolla ja kuntoutuksella voidaan ehkäistä toimintakyvyn heikkenemistä ja lisätä mahdollisuuksia asua pidempään omassa kodissaan. Siksi tiedon kartuttaminen muistisairauden varhaisessa tunnistamisessa on yksi tärkeimmistä tekijöistä muistihäiriöisten ihmisten auttamiseksi. Tämän pro gradu –tutkielman tarkoituksena oli selvittää ikääntyneiden ihmisten selviytymistä välineellisistä päivittäistoiminnoista eli IADL (instrumental activities…
Physical activity as a predictor of disability and social and health service use in older people
2009
The purpose of the study was to investigate whether functional status and physical activity history predict all-cause hospital and long-term care use among older community-dwelling people. In addition, the effects of physical activity counseling on instrumental activities of daily living (IADL) disability and home care service use in an older sedentary population were studied.Data from three larger studies were used. The Evergreen project cohorts born in 1910 and 1914 consisted of 617 persons. From the Evergreen project interview data on individuals born in 1908-1923, a decedent population was investigated (n=846). Screening and Counseling for Physical Activity and Mobility among Older Peop…
