Self-Perception and the Relation to Actual Driving Abilities for Individuals With Visual Field Loss
ConclusionSelf-perception ratings among individuals with VFL were higher than those of normally sighted elderly individuals. Self-assessed skills did not predict driving performance. Groups with different VFL etiologies rated similarly. Self-ratings of driving abilities cannot be used to assess actual driving performance. Actual driving tests (on road or in the simulator) are necessary to discriminate between safe and unsafe drivers with VFL.

The demography of idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus: data on 3000 consecutive, surgically treated patients and a systematic review of the literature
CONCLUSIONS: Most iNPH patients undergo surgery in their 70s. Those aged < 60 years show slightly different symptomatology and probably present with a specific disease entity, indicating that the lower age limit for iNPH should be 60 years. iNPH patients have severe impairment preceded by a long diagnostic delay. Even though the included study designs differed, the systematic review showed that the disorder has a very low treatment incidence. The importance of diagnosing and treating iNPH is further emphasized by the fact that iNPH may account for a considerable part of all cases of dementia.PMID:35395629 | DOI:10.3171/2022.2.JNS212063

Anemia is associated with increased risk of non-vertebral osteoporotic fractures in elderly men: the MrOS Sweden cohort
ConclusionsAnemia is associated with an increased risk for any fracture and non-vertebral osteoporotic fracture in elderly men with a long follow-up time. The cause is probably multifactorial and our results support that anemia can be used as a predictor for future fracture.

Napping Might Be Bad for the Heart, Study Finds
Napping, as well as sleeping too much or too little or having poor sleep patterns, appears to increase the risk for cardiovascular disease in older adults, new research shows.
The study, published Tuesday in the Journal of the American Heart Association, adds to a growing body of evidence supporting sleep’s importance to good health. The American Heart Association recently added sleep duration to its checklist of health and lifestyle factors for cardiovascular health, known as Life’s Essential 8. It says adults should average seven to nine hours of sleep a night.
“Good sleep behavior is essential to prese...

Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder as a risk factor for cardiovascular diseases: a nationwide population-based cohort study
World Psychiatry. 2022 Oct;21(3):452-459. doi: 10.1002/wps.21020.ABSTRACTAccumulating evidence suggests a higher risk for cardiovascular diseases among individuals with mental disorders, but very little is known about the risk for overall and specific groups of cardiovascular diseases in people with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). To fill this knowledge gap, we investigated the prospective associations between ADHD and a wide range of cardiovascular diseases in adults. In a nationwide population-based cohort study, we identified 5,389,519 adults born between 1941 and 1983, without pre-existing cardiovascul...
