The functional consequences of injurious falls are well known. However, studies of the factors that can modify trajectories of disability after an injury from a fall are scarce.

We aimed to investigate whether sociodemographic and health-related factors may impact this association.

The study population consisted of 1426 community-dwelling older adults (≥ 60years) from the SNAC-K cohort study in Stockholm, Sweden. Functional status over 12years of follow-up was assessed using the number of limitations in basic and instrumental activities of daily living. Sex, cohabitation status, physical activity, and self-rated health were assessed at baseline. Injurious falls were defined as falls requiring healthcare and were assessed over 3years starting at baseline. Data were analyzed using linear-mixed effects models.

The fastest increase in the number of disabilities was observed in those who had endured an injurious fall and were living alone (β coefficient = 0.408; p < 0.001), been physically inactive (β coefficient = 0.587; p < 0.001), and had poor self-rated health (β coefficient = 0.514; p < 0.001). The negative impact of these factors was more pronounced among fallers compared to non-fallers.

Living alone, being physically inactive, and having poor self-rated health magnifies the negative effect of an injurious fall on functional status. Among individuals who endure an injurious fall, the heterogeneity in long-term functional status is substantial, depending on the individuals' characteristics and behaviors.

These findings emphasize the need for a person-centered approach in care provision and can guide secondary prevention within health care.

We know that air pollution is associated with the development and worsening of the condition and that mitigating interventions can improve respiratory outcomes. We have clear targets, particularly traffic emissions, especially in urban areas, and plenty of potentially effective actions. Road traffic must be reduced, and what remains should be cleaner and greener. Urban green spaces, safe cycle networks and wider pavements will promote active travel and leisure time exercise. Healthcare professionals must ensure people are aware of their air quality, its impact on asthma and the appropriate behaviour to safeguard health. What remains are realistic policies and effective measures, based on the correct scientific evidence, to be taken forth with political courage and investment so that air pollution no longer contributes to the development or worsening of respiratory ill health.To investigate the functional role of fasudil in optic nerve crush (ONC), and further explore its possible molecular mechanism. After ONC injury, the rats were injected intraperitoneally either with fasudil or normal saline once a day until euthanized. RGCs survival was assessed by retrograde labeling with FluoroGold. Retinal glial cells activation and population changes (GFAP, iba-1) were measured by immunofluorescence. The expressions of cleaved caspase 3 and 9, p-ERK1/2 and p-AKT were detected by western blot. The levels of the pro-inflammatory cytokines were determined using real-time polymerase chain reaction. Fasudil treatment inhibited RGCs apoptosis and reduced RGCs loss demonstrated by the decreased apoptosis-associated proteins expression and the increased fluorogold labeling of RGCs after ONC, respectively. In addition, the ONC + fasudil group compared had a significantly lower expression of GFAP and iba1 compared with the ONC group. The levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines were significantly reduced in the ONC + fasudil group than in the ONC group. Furthermore, the phosphorylation levels of ERK1/2 and AKT (p-ERK1/2 and p-AKT) were obviously elevated by the fasudil treatment. Our study demonstrated that fasudil attenuated glial cell-mediated neuroinflammation by up-regulating the ERK1/2 and AKT signaling pathways in rats ONC models. We conclude that fasudil may be a novel treatment for traumatic optic neuropathy.Red rot caused by Colletotrichum falcatum poses a serious threat to sugarcane cultivation in many tropical and sub-tropical countries. Deciphering the molecular network of major defense-signaling pathways in sugarcane cultivars with varying red rot resistance is essential to elucidate the phenomenon of defense priming exerted by resistance inducers. Therefore, in this study, expression pattern of transcripts coding for major defense-signaling pathway regulatory genes was profiled during compatible and incompatible interactions and in response to defense priming using qRT-PCR. Candidate genes that were profiled are involved in or related to hypersensitive response and reactive oxygen species production (HR/ROS), salicylic acid (SA), and jasmonic acid/ethylene (JA/ET) pathways. For compatible and incompatible interactions, susceptible (CoC 671), field tolerant (Co 86032) and resistant (Co 93009) sugarcane cultivars were used, whereas for defense priming, benzothiadiazole (BTH) and the pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) of C. (R,S)-3,5-DHPG falcatum viz., CfEPL1 (eliciting plant response-like) and CfPDIP1 (plant defense inducing protein) were used in CoC 671 cultivar. Results indicated that the master regulator of defense pathways, nonexpressor of pathogenesis-related genes 1 (NPR1) was highly upregulated in incompatible interactions (in both Co 86032 and Co 93009) than the compatible interaction along with SA pathway-associated genes. Similarly, in response to defense priming with BTH, CfEPL1 and CfPDIP1, only the SA pathway-associated genes showed considerable upregulation at 0 h post inoculation (hpi) and other intermittent time points. Overall, this study showed that SA-mediated defense pathway is the most predominant pathway reprogrammed during priming with BTH, CfEPL1 and CfPDIP1 and substantiated the earlier findings that these agents indeed induce systemic resistance against red rot of sugarcane.
