Study uncovers factors linked to optimal aging
], the visible minority older adult population has increased from 2% in 1981 to 8.1% in 2011. In the CLSA, approximately 3.6% were visible minority members, slightly lower than the national average. Due to the small sample size, it is impossible to examine the relationship between successful aging and immigrants of diverse ethnic backgrounds. Thirdly, slightly less than half of Canadians aged 65 years and over had a post-secondary certificate, diploma, or degree, according to the 2016 Census [].
The study protocol of the CLSA has been approved by 13 research ethics boards across Canada. Details about the study are available at . The secondary analysis of CLSA data conducted in this paper was approved by the Health Sciences Research Ethics Board of the University of Toronto .CLSA was responsible for obtaining consent from the respondents. Authors of this paper did not have access to identifiable information of the respondents.

Television-viewing time and bodily pain in Australian adults with and without type 2 diabetes: 12-year prospective relationships - BMC Public HealthBackground Bodily pain is a common presentation in several chronic diseases, yet the influence of sedentary behaviour, common in ageing adults, is unclear. Television-viewing (TV) time is a ubiquitous leisure-time sedentary behaviour, with a potential contribution to the development of bodily pain. We examined bodily pain trajectories and the longitudinal relationships of TV time with the bodily pain severity; and further, the potential moderation of the relationships by type 2 diabetes (T2D) status. Method Data were from 4099 participants (aged 35 to 65 years at baseline) in the Australian Diabetes, Obesity and Lifestyle Study (AusDiab), who took part in the follow-ups at 5 years, 12 years, or both. Bodily pain (from SF36 questionnaire: a 0 to 100 scale, where lower scores indicate more-severe pain), TV time, and T2D status [normal glucose metabolism (NGM), prediabetes, and T2D] were assessed at all three time points. Multilevel growth curve modelling used age (centred at 50 years) as the time metric, adjusting for potential confounders, including physical activity and waist circumference. Results Mean TV time increased, and bodily pain worsened (i.e., mean bodily pain score decreased) across the three time points. Those with T2D had higher TV time and more-severe bodily pain than those without T2D at all time points. In a fully adjusted model, the mean bodily pain score for those aged 50 years at baseline was 76.9(SE: 2.2) and worsened (i.e., bodily pain score decreased) significantly by 0.3(SE: 0.03) units every additional year (p |0.001). Those with initially more-severe pain had a higher rate of increase in pain severity. At any given time point, a one-hour increase in daily TV time was significantly associated with an increase in pain severity [bodily pain score decreased by 0.69 (SE: 0.17) units each additional hour; p |0.001], accounting for the growth factor (age) and confounders’ effects. The association was more-pronounced in those with T2D than in those
