The increasing number of people aged 60+ in the world's population structure means that more different generations are living together than ever before. This transition in the demographic process affects the lives of everyone, young and old alike, and raises concerns that macroeconomic and social gains will diminish and it will result in the erosion of the welfare state. In terms of public finance, the main concern is that while public revenues will decrease, expenditures will increase, causing financing problems. In this study, only the tax policy dimension of the aging of the society is addressed through a literature review, and answers are sought as to which concerns should be expressed and to what extent, and what should be done. The fact that the elderly dependency ratio is increasing day by day and that the issue is not sufficiently addressed in the context of tax policy increases the importance of the study. The conclusion is that the concern is appropriate, but each country's dimension is different, and countries should find solutions according to their own realities. This is because different country experiences do not make it possible to offer a standardized common solution to everyone on this issue. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The aim of the study is to increase the power of the model to explain the slowdown in the growth rate of high-income countries by adding the elderly population per worker variable to the Solow model and to reveal the effect of the accumulation of the elderly population on the steady state. We believe that this study is a first with this feature and will make a significant contribution to the literature. In the study, panel data analysis was conducted with the mean group dynamic least squares (DOLSMG) method using the annual data of 25 highincome countries for the period 1995-2021. It was found that one unit increase in capital per worker increases output per worker by 0.504, one unit increase in elderly population per worker reduces output per worker by -0.241, and accumulation in the elderly population leads to a steady state at lower actual investment per worker and output per worker. The findings obtained were compatible with economic theory, as expected. Policies such as good management of the demographic transition process, encouraging women's participation in the workforce, preferring capital-intensive production, lengthening the retirement age, and encouraging post-retirement work have been suggested as solution the problem arising from aging.

False memory refers to the recollection of an event that did not occur, or the recollection of an event that occurred differently from how it actually happened. The aim of the present review is to examine the relationship between false memory and aging and the mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and Dementia of Alzheimer-type (DAT) that are frequently encountered in this process. For this purpose, the current study reviewed studies in the literature comparing healthy older adults, MCI, and DAT patients in terms of false memory. As in encoding and retrieval processes, the medial temporal lobe and frontal cortex seem to be effective on false memory. Studies have demonstrated that the deficits observed in these brain regions across aging, as well as in neurological conditions such as MCI and DAT, may have an impact on the formation of false memories. In addition, the differences observed between these three groups (healthy older adults, MCI, DAT) in terms of false memories are explained by attributing them to encoding, retrieval or monitoring processes. Finally, the results obtained from the studies conducted in the literature on this subject and the explanations brought to them are discussed within the framework of the Activation-Monitoring Theory and the Fuzzy Trace Theory.

Aging is a life stage in which progressive deterioration occurs in biological, psychological, and socio-cultural processes. Therefore, along with all the other changes observed in aging, cognitive change is inevitable. In older adulthood, the speed of processing information, the ability to remember contextual information such as where and when events occur, and executive function performance are impaired. Moreover, this change in cognitive processes causes the deterioration of functionality in daily life. Although it is well known that physical activity, nutrition, and social support play a key role in preventing the adverse effects of aging, the impact of cognitive training and rehabilitation have been relatively less studied. This review aims to examine cognitive training and rehabilitation practices applied to different cognitive processes (episodic memory, working memory, executive functions, attention and processing speed) to help compensate for or regain cognitive functions that are impaired in older adults. In this context, the effectiveness of the practices, the transfer of gains to different cognitive areas, and whether they are preserved for long periods were examined. The contribution of conscious and systematic practices, such as cognitive training and rehabilitation, in reducing the adverse effects of aging has been discussed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Objective: There is no clear consensus regarding the contour of prostatic glandular intraluminal concretions. This study enlightens the rational approach toward deciphering the true nature of these concretions and evaluates their role in normal routine histology of the prostate gland. Methods: Fifty hematoxylin and eosin slides that were prepared from procured transrectal biopsy specimens of normal prostate glands from asymptomatic patients suspected of having a prostatic disease but later found to be normal were retrospectively observed for the staining, contour, and positioning of the aggregated masses or concretions within their prostatic lumina and were then compared with the blood prostate specific antigen (PSA) levels. Results: Although significant associations highlighting the utility of these masses in presumed pathological states of the gland were drawn by comparing their staining parameters and contours to those of their respective PSA levels, their interluminal contour variations and vivid staining appearances did not necessarily rule out the possibility of some of them being artefacts, provided they were assessed in totality with the surrounding acini. Intensely eosinophilic concretions were found in patients with a high mean age and those with high PSA levels. Conclusions: Prostatic intraluminal masses that were rounded tended to indicate pathological shifts within the gland; however, the possibility of them changing to artefacts during slide preparations could not be ruled out.

Introduction: Elderly must maintain regular care and complex treatment of several chronic diseases that develop with age or that pre-exist. Having a chronic disease entail both a feeling of loss and the need to keep the disease and one’s life under control. It is important for these individuals to accept their illness while maintaining treatment and care. Life satisfaction, on the other hand, is the result of comparing what a person has with his or her expectations. This analytical cross-sectional study was conducted to examine the effect of disease acceptance on the life satisfaction of geriatric individuals. Methods: The research type is analytical cross-sectional study. The research was conducted between February 1-July 31, 2019 in a hospital in Izmir, in Türkiye. A total of 140 individuals over the age of 65 were included. A sociodemographic questionnaire, the Disease Acceptance Scale, and the Life Satisfaction Scale were used as data collection tools. Results: The mean disease acceptance score of the elderly individuals was 25.95 ± 5.25, and the life satisfaction score was 20.39 ± 5.94. Cardiology, endocrinology, dermatology, and gastroenterology patients evaluated their health as good, while individuals with respiratory system diseases evaluated their health as bad. A significant relationship was also found between marital status, disease type, health assessment status, and life satisfaction. While the life satisfaction of married individuals was borderline significant, it was determined that the life satisfaction of individuals with respiratory problems and poor health status was low. When the scores of the two scales were compared, a moderate positive correlation was found. Conclusion: There is a strong correlation between the acceptance of illness and life satisfaction of elderly individuals. When older individuals accept their illness, their life satisfaction also increases. When older individuals accept their illness, their life satisfaction also increases. Socioeconomic status of elderly individuals and having more than one disease play an active role in accepting the disease and life satisfaction. The importance of accepting the disease should be considered in order to increase life satisfaction. Keywords: Aging, elderly, satisfaction

Background: The aim of this study is to investigate the clinical acceptability of the color change that may occur in time about full ceramic materials used for aesthetic restorations, which are bonded after different surface conditioning processes, by measuring with spectrophotometer. Methods: The lithium disilicate CAD material we used in our work was prepared with isomet in the form of 1-millimeter-thick specimens. Three random groups of 21 specimens were selected from the specimens. One of these groups was conditioned with phosphoric acid, which is recommended by the manufacturer. Er:YAG laser was applied to the second group. The third group was conditioned by Nd:YAG laser. Surface changes in the groups were evaluated by scanning electron microscope (SEM) and atomic force microscope (AFM). The specimens were bonded with the adhesive resin cement to the background material for color change measurement. The first color measurement of the bonded specimens was done by spectrophotometer. The specimens were aged at 10,000 cycles in the thermal cycle device. The second color measurement after aging was done with the same spectrophotometer. Results: After aging with thermal cycle, there was a clinically acceptable color change in all groups. The Nd:YAG laser group presented better color stability (p

Yaşlanma sürecinde bilişsel işlevlerin birçoğunda düşüş görülmektedir. Yaşlanmayla birlikte bilişsel işlevlerde ortaya çıkan bu değişim ile nöral süreçler arasındaki ilişkinin incelenmesine olanak sağlayan nörobilişsel modeller, beyindeki aktivasyon artışına bağlı olarak ortaya çıkan telafi (compensation) mekanizmalarına odaklanmaktadır. Beyin aktivasyonundaki bu artışın, bilişsel performanstaki yaşa bağlı düşüşü dengelemek ve korumak yönünde harekete geçen telafi mekanizmalarını yansıttığı düşünülmektedir. Bu derleme çalışmasının amacı sağlıklı yaşlanma ile birlikte ortaya çıkan telafi mekanizmalarını açıklamak için geliştirilen nörobilişsel modellerden en etkili dört modeli incelemek; bu modellerin katkıları ve sınırlılıklarını tartışmaktır. Bu kapsamda mevcut derlemede Yaşlı Yetişkinlerde Hemisferik Asimetri Azalması (HAROLD) Modeli, Yaşlanmada Posterior-Anterior Kayma (PASA) Teorisi, Nöral Devrelerin Telafiyle İlgili Kullanımı Hipotezi (CRUNCH), Yaşlanma ve Bilişin İskele Teorisi (STAC; STAC-r) ele alınmıştır. Buna karşın nörobilişsel modellerden önce geliştirilen bilişsel modeller yaşa bağlı olarak ortaya çıkan bilişsel farklılıkları açıklamada yaşlanmaya bağlı bozukluklara odaklanmışlardır. Bu nedenle bilişsel değişimi kapsamlı bir şekilde açıklamakta yetersiz kalmışlardır. Nörobilişsel modeller ise, telafi mekanizmalarının harekete geçmesi için nöral ağların kullanımına odaklanmış ve telafi sürecinin daha çok frontal bölgelerde gerçekleştiğine vurgu yapmışlardır. Dolayısıyla nörobilişsel modeller yaşlanmanın nörobilişsel temellerini açıklamak açısından daha kapsamlı modellerdir; ancak bu modeller de bazı sınırlılıklar içermektedir. Türkiye’de ve tüm dünyada yaşlanan nüfus ve buna paralel olarak gelişen demans vaka sayıları giderek artmaktadır. Bu bağlamda, nörobilişsel modelleri test eden çalışmaların artması ve bunlardan elde edilecek sonuçlarla yaşlanmayı açıklayan yeni ve daha kapsamlı modellerin geliştirilmesi, yaşlanma sürecinin doğasının anlaşılması açısından önem arz etmektedir.

Introduction: In recent years, there has been an increase in the number of elderly population with the improvement of living conditions and the acquisition of healthy life behaviors in Türkiye. In this study, it was aimed to evaluate the quality of life of the elderly and the affecting factors. Methods: Our study is planned with a descriptive and cross-sectional design. Quality of life of the participants was assessed using the World Health Organization Quality of Life-Old module (WHOQOL-OLD), whereas depressive symptoms were evaluated using the Geriatric Depression Scale. Results: Their mean total score on the WHOQOL-OLD module was 56.64 ± 15.57. The total quality of life score was found to be significantly lower among females, elderly, illiterate and those who lacked a regular monthly income, who perceived their health status to be worse than that in the previous year, who considered themselves very old and who suffered from chronic diseases (p ˂ 0.001). The mean score of the participants on the Geriatric Depression Scale was 14.59±5.27, whereas the frequency of depression was 56.5%. There was a negative and significant relationship between depression and quality of life scores (p˂0.001, r=0.658). Conclusion: In our study, the indicators, dimensions, and measurement of quality of life and levels of depression in old age are presented. Additionally, factors influencing the perceptions of aging among the elderly and the individual perspective on aging, as well as their associations with depression, are discussed.

Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) is the most common cause of peripheral vertigo. It forms an significant number of patients in ear nose throat and neurology clinics. Transient global amnesia (TGA) is a rare neurological entity characterized by sudden onset anterograde amnesia and sometimes retrograde amnesia, which resolves within 24 hours at the latest. It is particularly triggered by emotional and physical stress. Its differential diagnosis includes transient ischemic attack in the posterior cerebral circulation, focal seizures, postictal state, psychogenic amnesia, post-traumatic amnesia, and metabolic disorders such as hypoglycemia. In this case, a 72-year-old female patient who experienced sudden changes in consciousness and loss of orientation shortly after performing the Dix-Hallpike test and then the Epley maneuver due to posterior canal BPPV is presented. As a result of the examinations, it was evaluated as TGA and returned to normal within 24 hours. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Aim: The aim of the present study was to characterize age-associated changes in the spatial configuration of cerebral hemispheres (including changes in spatial complexity and space-filling capacity) using fractal analysis of silhouette magnetic resonance brain images. Material and Methods: Magnetic resonance brain images of 100 (44 male, 56 female) participants aged between 18-86 years were studied. Five magnetic resonance images were selected from the magnetic resonance imaging dataset of each brain, including four tomographic sections in the coronal plane and one in the axial plane. Fractal dimension values of the cerebral hemispheres silhouettes were measured using the two-dimensional box-counting algorithm. Morphometric parameters based on Euclidean geometry (perimeter, area, and their derivative values) were determined as well. Results: The average fractal dimension value of the five studied tomographic sections was 1.878±0.0009, the average value of four coronal sections was 1.868±0.0010. It was shown that fractal dimension values of cerebral silhouettes for all studied tomographic sections and four coronal sections significantly decrease with age (r=-0.512, p

Hiçbir fiziksel aktivite yaşlanma sürecini durduramasa da, makul miktarda düzenli egzersiz, normalde hareketsiz olan bireyin yaşam tarzındaki fizyolojik etkileri en aza indirebilir, kronik hastalıkların ve sakatlık durumlarının gelişimini ve ilerlemesini sınırlayarak aktif yaşam beklentisini artırabilir. Yaşlı bireyler için uygun olan kas güçlendirme, esneklik ve aerobik egzersizleri olmalıdır. Ayrıca, düşme veya hareket bozukluğu riski taşıyan bireyler de dengeyi geliştirmek için özel egzersizler yapmalıdır. Fiziksel aktivitenin yoğunluğu ve süresi, ileri derecede kondisyonsuz olan ve basit düzeyde fiziksel aktiviteleri yerine getirmeyi engelleyen kronik rahatsızlığı olan kişiler için başlangıçta düşük olmalıdır. Ayrıca, egzersizlerin yoğunluğu bireyselleştirilmeli ve yaşlıların tercihlerine göre uyarlanmalıdır. Davranış değişikliği ilkelerini egzersiz ve fiziksel aktivite programlarının tasarımına ve uygulamasına dahil etmek, bireyin düzenli bir egzersiz ve/veya fiziksel aktivite programı başlatma ve sürdürme olasılığını artıracaktır. Kronik rahatsızlıkları ve engelliliği olan yaşlıların fiziksel işlevini sürdürme ve genel sağlığını iyileştirme sosyal politikaları planlanmalıdır. Engelli olan ve olmayan tüm yaşlıların, ihtiyaçlarını ve kişisel tercihlerini karşılayan kişiselleştirilmiş bir fiziksel aktivite planı geliştirmeye teşvik edilmelidir.

ÖZ: Ülkemizde ve dünyada yaşanan demografik değişimle birlikte yaşlı nüfus oranlarında önemli bir artış meydana gelmiştir. Yaşlı nüfusun aktif ve sağlıklı kalmasını sağlamak için artan bir ihtiyaç söz konusudur. Yaşlanan nüfus, yalnızca yaşam beklentisinde bir artışa ulaşmak için değil, aktif yaşlanma ilkeleri doğrultusunda daha kaliteli yaşayabilmek için giderek daha fazla özel ilgiye ihtiyaç duyacaktır. Bu nedenle aktif yaşlanmayı etkileyen belirleyicileri incelemek, bireysel ve toplumsal fırsatları geliştirmek açısından önem arz etmektedir. Bu kapsamda, nicel yöntemle veri toplanan araştırmaya 65 yaş ve üzeri 280 birey katılmıştır. Verilerin analizinde bağımsız örneklem t testi ve one way anova testi kullanılmıştır. Araştırma sonuçlarına göre, yaşlı bireyler aktif yaşlanmayı belirleyen aktiviteleri yapmak istemekte ve fonksiyonel kapasiteleri algıladıkları fırsatlara ve aktivitelere göre fazladır. Ayrıca aktif yaşlanma düzeyi ile cinsiyet, algılanan gelir düzeyi, çalışma durumu, eğitim durumu, medeni durum, yaşam şekli, ev dışında zaman geçirilen yer, algılanan sağlık durumu, düzenli egzersiz yapma, alkol kullanma ve seminer, konferans vb. eğitim katılım durumu arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir farklılık bulunmaktadır (p

With the demographic change in our country and in the world, there has been a significant increase in the proportion of the elderly population. There is a growing need to ensure that the elderly population remains active and healthy. The aging population will need more and more special attention not only to achieve an increase in life expectancy, but also to live better in line with the principles of active aging. Therefore, examining the determinants affecting active aging is important in terms of improving individual and social opportunities. In this context, 280 individuals aged 65 and over participated in the study, which collected data by quantitative method. Independent sample t-test and one-way anova test were used in the analysis of the data. According to the results of the research, older adults want to do activities that determine active aging and their functional capacities are higher than the opportunities and activities they perceive. In addition, there is a statistically significant difference between active aging level and gender, perceived income, employment status, education level, marital status, lifestyle, place of spending time outside the home, perceived health status, regular exercise, alcohol use and seminar, conference etc. education attendance status (p<0,05). Providing services, resources and opportunities to the older adults by taking into account each determinant of active aging will contribute to improving the quality of life of the older adults.

Aging is defined as all of the irreversible structural and functional changes that result in a gradual decrease in physical and mental capacity, an increased risk of disease, and ultimately death, due to the effect of the accumulation of a wide variety of molecular and cellular damage over time. It is known that the world population is on an increase line. With the aging of the population, health protection policies come to the fore. Genetic and environmental factors are effective in maintaining health and preventing premature aging in the aging process. From a public health point of view, it is aimed to prevent diseases before they occur as a primary prevention method. It is known that with the aging process, adequate and balanced nutrition is important for reducing the negative effects of aging. Anti-aging compounds are also needed to reduce the negative effects of the aging process and to prolong the healthy life span. One of the most important of these compounds is resveratrol. Resveratrol (3,5,4 trihydroxystilbene) is a non-flavonoit polyphenolic compound found in many sources in the human diet, such as grapes (Vitis vinifera), mulberry (Morus rubra), peanuts (Arachis hypogaea), strawberries (Rosaceae fragaria). Resveratrol has been used for decades in European and Asian countries to reduce cardiological risks, as an anticarcinogenic compound, and in the treatment of allergies and skin diseases. Due to its antiinflammatory, antioxidant, antitumor, autophagy-enhancing properties, anti-proliferative, and cardioprotective effects, resveratrol is also widely used to reduce the negative changes in physical, biological and lifestyle that occur as a result of aging.

Objectives: It is designed to test the Turkish version of ASKAS's validity and reliability for use with older people, health professionals, and people who influence older people. Material and Method: Language and content validity, item analysis, exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis, and internal consistency coefficients were evaluated in this study. Results: It was decided to omit two items from the scale's knowledge subscale, and the three-factor structure of the attitude subscale was found to be within the range of acceptable fit indices. Conclusions: The Turkish version of ASKAS was determined to be valid, reliable, and applicable in practice.

Objective: Besides the known co-morbidities, emergency department (ED) applications reveal an increasing trend due to the complications originating from the increase in the elderly population in the society. In addition, ED applications with psychiatric symptoms also continuously rise in numbers. Along these lines, in the current study, we focus on the fundamental causes associated with the ED applications of geriatric patients (> 64 years old) with psychiatric symptoms. Materials and Methods: The patients who applied to our ED with psychiatric symptoms between February 2019 and August 2019 and who had a psychiatry consultation were evaluated retrospectively. The demographic data, co-morbidities, known psychiatric diseases, admission symptoms, and outcome diagnoses of the patients were recorded. The results were evaluated statistically. Results: A total of 43.2 % of male patients who were over the age of 65, and 43.3 % of female patients were admitted to our ED with the most common complaint of anxiety. No significant relations were detected between suicide attempts and the presence of psychiatric disease in elderly patients (p = 0.93). Delirium was the most common diagnosis in the geriatric population without any known psychiatric disease (n = 10). All patients were diagnosed with depression, delirium, and dementia, respectively, after the emergency psychiatric evaluation. Conclusion: Healthcare costs and morbidity-mortality rates of the senior patients with psychiatric symptoms can be significantly diminished upon the diagnosis of depression, delirium, and dementia via psychiatric examinations.
