Representation of Rural Older Adults in AI for Health Research: Systematic Literature Review

Representation of Rural Older Adults in AI for Health Research: Systematic Literature Review

The global aging population presents significant opportunities to expand and extend health care, and artificial intelligence (AI) offers promising avenues to address these issues. As the population gets older, successful AI integration into health care systems necessitates a deeper understanding of the specific needs and perspectives of older adults.

Biological Age Estimation From the Age Gap Using Deep Learning Integrating Morbidity and Mortality: Model Development and Validation Study

Biological Age Estimation From the Age Gap Using Deep Learning Integrating Morbidity and Mortality: Model Development and Validation Study

Biological aging is a critical determinant of functional decline, age-related diseases, and mortality, distinct from chronological aging, which simply measures time since birth [1,2]. Biological age (BA) is shaped by a complex interplay of genetics, environmental exposures, modifiable lifestyle factors, and chronic diseases, making it highly individualized and multifaceted [3,4].

Associations Between Sleep Duration and Cognitive Function Among Older Adults: Cross-Sectional Study

Associations Between Sleep Duration and Cognitive Function Among Older Adults: Cross-Sectional Study

Cognitive impairment poses a significant challenge in the context of global aging, profoundly affecting societal development and individual well-being [1]. In China, approximately 30% of the middle-aged and older population, representing over 260 million people, experience cognitive decline [2-4], which undermines autonomy and imposes substantial economic burdens on families and society [5,6].

Development and Testing of an Exergaming and Artmaking Program to Enhance Cognitive and Physical Function in Older Adults: Results of a Community-Based Pilot Study

Development and Testing of an Exergaming and Artmaking Program to Enhance Cognitive and Physical Function in Older Adults: Results of a Community-Based Pilot Study

Preserving cognitive and physical function is critical to successful aging [1-3]. Recreational activities, such as group exercise and visual artmaking, offer older adults an enjoyable experience while simultaneously helping them maintain function, independence, and quality of life [4-14]. These activities also often provide a social experience and have the potential to enhance functional capacity while promoting social support [8,10,14,15].

The Prevalence and Predictors of Digital Proxy Behavior in the United States: Cross-Sectional Survey Study

The Prevalence and Predictors of Digital Proxy Behavior in the United States: Cross-Sectional Survey Study

The rise in chronic illnesses and an aging global population have placed increasing demands on health care systems, leaving caregivers to fill growing care gaps. In the United States, the economic contribution of unpaid caregivers was valued at approximately $600 billion in 2021, reflecting a 27% increase since 2017 [1].

Recapitulation of Ageism in Artificial Intelligence–Generated Images: Longitudinal Comparative Study

Recapitulation of Ageism in Artificial Intelligence–Generated Images: Longitudinal Comparative Study

The American Association of Retired Persons Disrupt Aging campaign calls on gerontologists to research the aging process and mitigate negative stereotypes that hinder older adults’ quality of life [6]. Digital ageism, also called artificial intelligence (AI) ageism, describes the manifestation of structural age-related bias in technologies like AI systems trained on uncurated data collected from public and private sources [7].

Ethics and Equity Challenges in Telerehabilitation for Older Adults: Rapid Review

Ethics and Equity Challenges in Telerehabilitation for Older Adults: Rapid Review

This is transforming how health care services are delivered to the aging population [2]. Telerehabilitation, which involves the evaluation and treatment of patients through technology, has emerged as an attractive option for older adults who may have multiple comorbidities [1,3]. Before the COVID-19 pandemic, numerous adults faced challenges accessing rehabilitation treatments due to diverse clinical limitations and geographic circumstances.

Social Participation When Aging With an Early-Onset Neurological Disability: Protocol for Descriptive Qualitative Research

Social Participation When Aging With an Early-Onset Neurological Disability: Protocol for Descriptive Qualitative Research

Individuals aging with disabilities remain an understudied population [3,6-8], and there is limited evidence on the realities of aging with disabilities and the related needs. While research on aging with a disability is progressing, it remains marginal, particularly concerning the long-term experiences of individuals aging with early-onset neurological disabilities [9]. Available knowledge about the realities and social participation experiences of these populations is especially limited.
