There is growing evidence that difficulties performing some activities of daily living (ADL) might be present in mild cognitive impairment (MCI)1. In 2011, a new classification of MCI was proposed, namely, “MCI due to Alzheimer’s disease”2. The new classification includes the presence of impairments performing complex ADL, but not sufficiently severe to affect functional independence. The previ...
BACKGROUND Most studies documenting beneficial outcomes after carotid endarterectomy (CE) are limited to mortality and morbidity rates, costs, and length of hospital stay (LOS). Few have examined the dependency of patients and how they perceive their own health changes after surgery. The aim of the present study was to evaluate quality of life and independence in activities of daily living (ADL...
To the Editor: We very much enjoyed reading the Editorial by Robert L. Kane ‘‘Ptolemaic Bathing’’ (1) and the original article by Gill and colleagues entitled ‘‘Bathing Disability and the Risk of Long-Term Admission to a Nursing Home’’(2). We would like to point out that, actually, Holroyd-Leduc and colleagues (3) did not find any independent relationship between urinary incontinence and Activi...
Samples from two experiments were used to evaluate the potential of ADL and alkaline peroxide lignin (APL; isolated by sequential, alkaline hydrogen peroxide [AHP] incubation and ADL extraction) for predicting digestibility of warm-season grass diets. Experiment 1 evaluated the influence of level of sorghum grain supplementation on utilization of immature bluestem-range grasses, and Exp. 2 eval...
OBJECTIVE To investigate the impact of activities of daily living (ADL) versus moderate-intensity endurance-type exercise on 24-h glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Twenty males with type 2 diabetes participated in a randomized crossover study consisting of three experimental periods of 3 days each.

BACKGROUND The objective of this study was to assess the responsiveness of the Minimum Data Set Activities of Daily Living (MDS-ADL) Scale to change over time by examining the change in physical function in adults with moderate to severe dementia with no comorbid illness who had been resident in a nursing home for over 90 days. METHODS Longitudinal data were collected on nursing home resident...
We determined the interrelations of chronological age, age at seizure onset, duration of seizure disorder, cognitive functioning (IQ), scales of activities of daily living, depressive mood disorder and measures of health-related quality of life (HRQOL). Furthermore, we investigated the association of the laterality of seizure onset zone and absence/presence of hippocampal atrophy and/or scleros...

METHODS Secondary data analysis of a multicenter prospective cohort study consisted of 2426 advanced cancer patients referred to palliative care settings was conducted to examine the cross-sectional relationships between CRP level, symptoms,...
Spatial neglect is most frequently observed after right-hemispheric stroke and is characterized by a failure to report, to respond, or to orient to stimuli presented to the contralesional side. Although many neglect patients show difficulties in accomplishing activities of daily living (ADL), to date the clinical assessment of neglect is based upon neuropsychological paper-and-pencil tests. Thu...
Recent research has shown that lexical properties known to influence word recognition – namely, frequency, neighborhood density, and neighborhood frequency – also affect the pronunciation of words (e.g., Balota & Chumbley, 1985; Goldinger & Summers, 1989; Wright, 1997). These findings could be explained within a cooperative framework, according to which speakers continually assess the ability o...
