Advanced 3D movement analysis algorithms for robust functional capacity assessment.
2017
SummaryObjectives: We developed a novel system for in home functional capacities assessment in frail older adults by analyzing the Timed Up and Go movements. This system aims to follow the older people evolution, potentially allowing a forward detection of motor decompensation in order to trigger the implementation of rehabilitation. However, the pre-experimentations conducted on the ground, in different environments, revealed some problems which were related to KinectTM operation. Hence, the aim of this actual study is to develop methods to resolve these problems.Methods: Using the KinectTM sensor, we analyze the Timed Up and Go test movements by measuring nine spatio-temporal parameters, …

Impact of oral physiology of elderly people on their food consumption; what solutions can be found to maintain nutritional status?
2018
Context. In human, oral food intake is the ultimate stage of food supply chain and the beginning of food disintegration and the digestion process. During aging, the oral health changes and sometimes eating food can be a real challenge as food can be hard to masticate, humidify or swallow.Objective. The aim of the present study is to determine which oral factors (salivary, dental, tongue strength) have an impact on physiological – ability to form a food bolus – and psychological – pleasure to eat – dimensions of food oral processing in order to select culinary techniques and help elderlies maintaining an appropriate protein intake in spite of the occurrence of poor oral health.Material and m…

Communication à destination du monde socio-professionnel.; « Bien manger » est un facteur clef pour permettre de « bien vieillir » - c’est-à-dire de rester actif, autonome et en bonne santé au cours de l’avancée en âge. Cependant, malgré l’existence de recommandations spécifiant les besoins nutritionnels des personnes âgées (WHO, 2002), de nombreuses études ont montré une prise calorique et nutritionnelle insuffisante au sein de la population âgée européenne (Roman-Vinas et al, 2011; Madej et al, 2013; Mensink et al, 2013).[br/][br/]IMPACT DU VIEILLISSEMENT SUR LE COMPORTEMENT ALIMENTAIRE DU SUJET ÂGÉ[br/]Le processus de vieillissement, même lorsqu’il se déroule normalement, est associé à d…

Smelling in the old age
2017
Several authors argued that ageing is accompanied by an impairment of olfactory abilities, i.e., the ability to perceive an odour or a taste. However, beyond this overall effect of age on chemosensory abilities, ageing is accompanied by variability in olfactory performance: the decline of odour perception with age is not uniform across odorants neither across elderly individuals. Decline in odour perception may not be inevitable to the aging individual and that factors secondary to aging, such as poor health status or cognitive decline, may contribute to deficits in odour detectability beyond the age effect per se.
