Título : Handgrip strength as a predictor of 1?year mortality after hip fracture surgery in the Colombian Andes Mountains Tipo de documento : documento electrónico Autores : Toro, Angél, Autor ; González, Fernando Iván, Autor ; Botero, Sandra, Autor ; García, Hernán David, Autor ; Duque, Gustavo, Autor ; Gómez, Fernando, Autor Fecha de publicación : 2025 Títulos uniformes : Osteoporosis International ISBN/ISSN/DL : 98700011909 Idioma : Inglés (eng) Palabras clave : Aging; Colombia Handgrip strength; Hip fracture Mortality Older persons. Clasificación: AC-2025-001 Resumen : Abstract Hip fracture is a public health problem recognized worldwide and a potentially catastrophic threat for older persons, even carrying a demonstrated excess of mortality. Handgrip strength (HGS) has been identified as a predictor of different outcomes (mainly mortality and disability) in several groups with hip fracture. Purpose: The aim of this study was to determine the association between low HGS and 1-year mortality in a cohort of older patients over 60 years old with fragility hip fractures who underwent surgery in the Colombian Andes Mountains. Methods: A total of 126 patients (median age 81 years, women 77%) with a fragility hip fracture during 2019-2020 were admitted to a tertiary care hospital. HGS was measured using dynamometry upon admission, and data about sociodemographic, clinical and functional, laboratory, and surgical intervention variables were collected. They were followed up until discharge. Those who survived were contacted by telephone at one, three, and 12 months. Bivariate, multivariate, and Kaplan-Meier analyses with survival curves were performed. Results: The prevalence of low HGS in the cohort was 71.4%, and these patients were older, had poorer functional and cognitive status, higher comorbidity, higher surgical risk, time from admission to surgery > 72 h, lower hemoglobin and albumin values, and greater intra-hospital mortality at one and three months (all p Mención de responsabilidad : Luis-Ángel Toro 1, Fernando-Iván González 2, Sandra Botero 3, Hernán-David García 1, Gustavo Duque 4 5, Fernando Gómez 6 Referencia : Osteoporos Int . 2025 Jan;36(1):61-69.

Handgrip strength as a predictor of 1?year mortality after hip fracture surgery in the Colombian Andes MountainsURL
Título : Aging in Indigenous Communities: Perspective from Two Ancestral Communities in the Colombian Andean–Amazon Region Tipo de documento : documento electrónico Autores : García, Hernán David, Autor ; García, Hernán David, Autor ; García, Wilson A., Autor ; Curcio, Carmen L., Autor Fecha de publicación : 2024 Títulos uniformes : Journal of Cross-Cultural Gerontology Idioma : Inglés (eng) Palabras clave : Ethnogerontology · Indigenous · Symbolic Interactionism · Meaning of
AgingResumen : The phenomenon of world aging is not foreign to indigenous communities. In the last few years, research about these communities around the world has increased, but aging in indigenous towns still has not been studied widely. The purpose of this research is to interpret the meaning of old age in two indigenous communities from the Colombian Andean–Amazon region (the Inga and Kamëntsa) to reinforce the relevance of the local sociocultural context within the configuration of the meaning of old age and to emphasize the importance of considering particular regional characteristics for the design of policies and interventions aiming to recognize and integrate indigenous populations. This is a qualitative study with an interactionism–symbolism approach. In total, six indigenous people older than 60 years from two ancestral communities from the Colombian Andean–Amazon region participated in the in-depth interviews. Data analysis was carried out in three moments: discovery, coding, and relativization of the information. The results show that old age means wisdom, “I am wise,” which is supported in the cosmology and the trajectory of life, reinforces the identity and autonomy, and allows them to be agents in the dynamics of their communities from the “I do,” in other words, their roles as builders of the family–society and as guards of ancestral knowledge. The loss of this knowledge and the elements that it is composed of uproot them and put them at risk of disappearing as individuals and as a collective. In conclusion, the meaning of old age in these communities is not centered on a determinate age; you are not old, you are wise, and as such, they play a central role in their communities. Moreover, wisdom is built in parallel with their cosmology and assigns them the task of safekeeping ancestral knowledge. In order to do this, they use oral tradition as a tool, words that are born in their territories, travel in a nonlinear timeline, and get strengthened by the community while also protecting it and building it. Knowing what aging means for Indigenous communities can facilitate to the development of policies and initiatives and to provide culturally appropriate and effective programs.
