Abstract:
This hermeneutical study interprets and describes the phenomena of ageing and living with disability. The lived experiences of 14 older men and the horizon of this researcher developed an understanding of what it is like for men to grow old and, for some, to live with the effects of a major disability. The study is grounded in the philosophical hermeneutics of Gadamer and framed in the context of embodiment, masculinity, and narrative. I conducted multiple in-depth interviews with older men aged from 67 to 83 years of age. Seven of the participants had experienced a stroke and I was able to explore the phenomenon of disability with them. Through thematic and narrative analyses of the textual data interpretations were developed that identified common meanings and understandings of the phenomena of ageing and disability. These themes and narratives reveal that the men's understandings are at odds with conventional negative views of ageing and disability. These older men are 'alive and kicking', they voice counternarratives to the dominant construction of ageing as decline and weakness, and have succeeded in remaking the lifeworld after stroke. Overall I have come to understand an overarching meaning of older men 'working it out' as illustrative of a strong face of ageing and disability. Older men seek out opportunities to participate actively in community life and, despite the challenges of ageing and disability, lead significant and meaningful lives. These findings challenge and extend our limited understandings of men's experiences of ageing and living with disability. This interpretation offers gendered directions for policy development, clinical practice, and future research.

Full text
Abstract:
Objective: To examine associations between caregiving and specific health outcomes in older men. Methods: Men aged 70 years and older from the Concord Health and Ageing in Men Project (CHAMP) were assessed at wave 1 (2005-2007, n=1705) and three follow-ups. Data were collected on self-reported caregiving status, physical and mental health and nutrient intake. Both hospital admission data and death record were obtained from administrative databases and linked to CHAMP data. Results: At wave 1, 11% older men were caregivers, of whom 158 were looking after their wives or partners. In cross-sectional data analysis, being a caregiver was associated with increased likelihood of reporting anxiety symptoms (OR: 2.32, 95%CI: 1.39-3.87). No longitudinal associations were found between changes in caregiving status and changes in depression or anxiety status. A significantly lower rate of planned overnight admission (elective admission) was found in caregivers compared to non-caregivers (rate ratio: 0.61, 95% CI: 0.45 – 0.83, p= 0.002). From 2005 to 2015, 495 deaths were observed with an average follow-up of 7.39 years (SD= 2.95). Using time-dependent Cox regression models, we did not find any significant difference in all-cause mortality between caregivers and non-caregivers. At follow-up, new caregivers were less likely to have improved diet quality (OR: 0.28, p< 0.05) and less likely to maintain adequate diet quality (OR: 0.36, p< 0.05). New caregivers were also more likely to have a decrease in fibre intake (OR: 2.41, p< 0.05). Discussion: The findings would suggest that support services provided to older male caregivers should be individualised to caregivers’ perceptions and focus on strategies that will assist older men who have high levels of anxiety associated with caregiving. It is reassuring that caregiving did not appear to have an adverse effect on mortality or emergency hospital admissions. Our anecdotal observation is that older carers are often advised to “take better care of themselves” based on the belief that caregiving is believed to have a substantial negative impact on their health. Our study would suggest that the effects of caregiving on health may be subtler.

It is most appropriate to open an exploration of the human rights of older persons with the poignant words of Kofi Annan, then Secretary-General of the United Nations, in a statement to the Second World Assembly on Aging in Madrid: I turned 64 today. I therefore feel empowered to quote a Beatles' song that asks, on behalf of all older persons, and I quote: Will you still need me, will you still feed me, when I'm 64? I trust the answer is yes, older people will be provided for, and yes, older people will be needed in the twenty-first century.

McCarthy, Joanne. "Identity formation and conflict in older Irish gay men." Thesis, University of Lincoln, 2012. http://eprints.lincoln.ac.uk/18950/.

Full text
Abstract:
Gay Irish men over 55 grew up in the 1950s and 1960s when homosexuality in Ireland was illegal, the Catholic Church was an unquestioned dominance within society and the heterosexual family was seen as the basic unit of the Catholic state. The power of the Catholic Church, homophobia and repressive laws combined to create an atmosphere that made many people unable or unsafe to admit their sexuality. Gay men constructed their identity under a cloak of secrecy and negotiated any identity threat and conflict between their multiple identities alone. Evidence suggests that gay and lesbian individuals with religious identities face greater social and psychosocial challenges due to their identity configuration. Furthermore, the challenges faced within identity construction, and the obstacles of threat and conflict, have shown to affect an individual’s mental health. Using the interpretive lens of Identity Process Theory (IPT) the present study used a qualitative design to explore how older gay Irish men (over the age of 55) understand and construct their sexual identity and investigate the strategies they used. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with seven older gay men to explore their experiences, perceptions and understanding of being an older gay person in Ireland and the UK. Thematic analysis identified three themes i) experiences of sexual awareness and identity conflict; ii) the dilemma of ‘staying in ‘ vs. ‘coming out’; iii) dealing with identity conflict. The results suggested that many men faced challenges and barriers to constructing a stable identity. Religious and cultural experiences played a central role in Irish men’s identity acquisition and how they made sense of it. The results show ways in which identity conflicts were created and how the men developed strategies to minimise these conflicts. The study has implications for professionals working therapeutically with sexual minority clients. Recommendations are provided for improved understanding of sexuality issues concerning minority clients within therapeutic work. Health practitioners need to be willing to engage in discussion about the effect that religious and cultural influences have on a client’s well-being, as this will help support patients, reduce psychological distress and improve therapy outcomes.

Abstract:
Background: Studies have shown a sex difference in the cognitive dysfunction in the elderly where women are more susceptible to Alzheimer’s disease than men. Physical activity (PA) is an important strategy for brain health, but the exact mechanism is unclear. Santos has the largest proportion of the elderly population in São Paulo State (22%), but no studies have whether there are differences between the sexes in cognitive function. Objective: To evaluate the differences between the sexes in the cognitive function of the elderly and which factors are associated with this difference. Methods: Ninety-seven women and sixty-nine men were eligible for the study. Inclusion criteria were >65 years old, no severe cognitive impairment, preserved activities of daily living. Cognitive function and PA were assessed by the mini-mental state examination (MMSE) and Baecke questionnaire. Results: The mean age was 75±7 and 73±7, for women and men, respectively. Both sexes showed a similar MMSE score (26, varying between 14 and 30) that was inversely associated with age. The influence of the schooling status on MMSE was greater in women (r=0.49, p=0.0001) compared to men (r= 0.30, p9. Conclusions: The MMSE score is affected by the aging process similarly between the sexes. The years of schooling have an influence on cognitive function in women that is attenuated by higher PA.

Abstract:
Psychological well-being is seen as a protective factor when facing adverse life events. The COVID-19 pandemic is one of the most dangerous challenges that has put humanity to the test. In this context, present study aimed to investigate in a comparative plan the effect of COVID-19 pandemic on the Greek and Bulgarian older adults' perceptions of psychological well-being and distress. A total of 180 older adults, 90 Greeks (45 men) and 90 Bulgarians (45 men), aged 60-89 years, were studied by means of the Heubeck and Neill’s inventory questionnaire (Heubeck & Neill, 2000). The results revealed insignificantly higher levels of psychological well-being and distress among the Bulgarian sample in comparison to the Greek sample, with the differences between Greek and Bulgarian women regarding psychological well-being being more pronounced and statistically significant.

Full text
Abstract:
Introduction: Little is known about the impact of enzyme-inducing antiseizure drugs (EI-ASD) on the reduction of Bone Mineral Density (BMD) in men with epilepsy (MWE). Objectives: To evaluate the BMD in MWE exposed to EI-ASDs (phenytoin, carbamazepine and phenobarbital) and its relationship with the duration of epilepsy. Methods: We evaluated BMD from 74 consecutive MWE (median age (range), 52.5 (25- 74) years) exposed to previous or current EI-ASDs, followed at UNICAMP-Brazil. Individuals were split into two groups (young-group, 31 individuals [25-49 years]; older group, 43 subjects, [50-74 years]). The BMD test evaluated t-score indexes from the femoral neck, whole femur and lumbar spine. Osteopenia was defined with t-score of - 1.0 to -2.4; osteoporosis, with T-scores lower than -2.5. Data were extracted from medical records. We analyzed data with SPSS22, performed chi-square tests for categorical variables and applied a partial correlation test (controlled for age) between BD scores and duration of epilepsy. Results: BMD was reduced in 49/74 men (66.2%). Both groups presented equivalent proportions of BMD abnormalities (p=0.087) (young-group [14/41 normal (45%), 12/31 osteopenia (39%), 5/31 osteoporosis (16%)]; older-group [11/43 normal (26%), 16/43 osteopenia (37%), 16/43 osteoporosis (37%)]. BMD did not correlate with the duration of disease or age of onset. Conclusion: BMD reduction is highly prevalent in MWE exposed to EI-ASD, including young individuals. Data suggest that exposure to EI-ASD may associate with early BMD reduction, which evolve to osteopenia and osteoporosis. BMD evaluation in MWE and appropriate treatment may be necessary to reduce fractures’ risk.
