Abstract:
The majority of today's elderly people were primarily infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis at a time when no effective chemotherapeutic treatment was available. With the progressive decline in cell mediated immunity that accompanies aging, the potential to reactivate a dormant lesion, or to be re-infected increases. The latter particularly applies in areas of high density living e.g. homes for the elderly. The incidence of pulmonary tuberculosis in whites in South Africa is very similar to that in industrialized countries (approximately 16/100 000). In a survey of old age homes in East Lon

Abstract:
Set within the context that the world’s population is ageing at an unprecedented rate, it is argued that care of the elderly, and their everyday lived experiences are poised to become prominent concerns. In the shadow of this, the ageing population poses a myriad of challenges not only for the elderly but also for policy makers who put in place systems for the provision of services within residential care homes. By virtue, given that communities of elderly consumers voices are often muted within many academic analyses of social policy and service provision this study illuminates and distils co

Regular physical exercises seem to be one of most important habit for living a healthy and joyful life. No matter what the age is, physical activity offers a general framework for an improved handling of human needs, starting with the basic ones such as physiological and safety and ending with the higher one such as belonging, esteem and self-actualisation. Despite of this, the higher the age is, the lower the availability for physical exercises become.

Evaluating the relationship between health at old age and income is crucial for the design of equitable public policies targeted toward the elderly.

We use both subjective and objective measures of the probability to survive to age 85, of the probability to have activities of daily living (ADL) limitations, and of the probability of entering a nursing home.
