The Development of a New Scale to Measure Food Insecurity Among Older Adults Using the International Classification of Functioning, Disability, and Health (ICF) Framework
Get PDFBackground: Older adults face different barriers to accessing adequate food, and none of the current food security scales address the unique issues that aging could present to food security among this population.
Purpose: This study aims to understand the components of nutrition functioning in relation to food insecurity among older adults to develop a food insecurity screening tool specific to the older adult population.
Methods: Cross-sectional qualitative study with semi-structured interviews. The interviews occurred via Google Voice and were simultaneously recorded using Zoom. Two researchers coded transcriptions from interview audio recordings separately, and thematic analysis based on the International Classification of Functioning, Disability, and Health (ICF) was used to analyze the data. The findings were deliberated between all the researchers, and the final themes, subthemes, and representative quotes were mutually agreed upon.
Results: Twenty-three older adults living in independent senior living facilities were interviewed. Nine themes (transportation, access/variety, housing, mobility & aging, preparing food, interpersonal relationship, food assistance, dentition/ingestion/digestion, health conditions) and twenty-two subthemes were identified. The results demonstrated that lack of transportation, interpersonal relationships, health-related conditions, and financial constraints were this population\u27s principal barriers to accessing and preparing adequate food.
Discussion: Food insecurity among older adults is a multi-dimension issue. A new scale to measure food insecurity among older adults was created to provide a more accurate assessment of food security risk in this population. Future research should validate this scale in different settings

Developmental and genomic insight into the origin of the tardigrade body plan
No full textTardigrada is an ancient lineage of miniaturized animals. As an outgroup of the well-studied Arthropoda and Onychophora, studies of tardigrades hold the potential to reveal important insights into body plan evolution in Panarthropoda. Previous studies have revealed interesting facets of tardigrade development and genomics that suggest that a highly compact body plan is a derived condition of this lineage, rather than it representing an ancestral state of Panarthropoda. This conclusion was based on studies of several species from Eutardigrada. We review these studies and expand on them by analyzing the publicly available genome and transcriptome assemblies of Echiniscus testudo, a representative of Heterotardigrada. These new analyses allow us to phylogenetically reconstruct important features of genome evolution in Tardigrada. We use available data from tardigrades to interrogate several recent models of body plan evolution in Panarthropoda. Although anterior segments of panarthropods are highly diverse in terms of anatomy and development, both within individuals and between species, we conclude that a simple one-to-one alignment of anterior segments across Panarthropoda is the best available model of segmental homology. In addition to providing important insight into body plan diversification within Panarthropoda, we speculate that studies of tardigrades may reveal generalizable pathways to miniaturization
