Visceral adiposity index is positively associated with blood pressure: A systematic review

PurposeThis systematic review aimed to investigate the association between VAI and blood pressure.MethodsThe study was according to the PRISMA standards and the bibliographic search in the PubMed, EMBASE and Cochrane Library databases.ResultsThis review included 32 articles, with 60,482 individuals – children to elderly people between 7 and 102 years old – of different age groups, most of them female (54.9%; n = 26,478). The year of publication ranged from 2010 to 2020, indicating that it is a recent theme, applied in almost all continents (America, Europe, Africa and Asia). The authors used data as continuous or into quantiles; blood pressure data also varied, with different cutoff points for the classification of arterial hypertension or continuously. The vast majority of studies have shown a positive association between VAI and blood pressure, both the sexes, in different age groups. The evaluation of the quality of the articles used by the Tool of the Joanna Briggs Institute according to their design.ConclusionIndividuals with increased VAI have higher blood pressure levels. Registration (PROSPERO: CRD42020205965).     

Medicaid managed care in Iowa: Experiences of older adults and people with disabilities

BackgroundA growing number of states are turning to managed care arrangements to provide care to senior and disabled Medicaid beneficiaries. Despite their complex care needs, very little is known about the experience of these individuals in managed care.ObjectiveTo document experiences of a sample of aged and disabled Medicaid beneficiaries receiving long-term services and supports through managed care in Iowa and to assess whether these experiences changed over time.MethodsA purposive sample of 49 aged and disabled beneficiaries enrolled in one of seven HCBS waivers in Iowa was recruited in 2017. Telephone surveys were conducted in 2017 and 2019. A conventional content analysis was used to generate themes, which were then ranked by frequency proportions. Thematic frequencies were compared across waves among repeat respondents.ResultsContent analysis yielded seven themes in the following areas: system navigation; service approvals; provider relations; customer service; case management; perception of Iowa’s transition to managed care; and oversight. Concerns with service approvals was the most frequently reported theme and within this, issues related to changes in approved services or hours and quality of newly approved services comprised the largest number of references. Beneficiary concerns appeared to grow over time among respondents participating in both survey interview waves.ConclusionThe results of this study point to serious and persistent concerns related to access and quality of care under managed care for at least some HCBS waiver participants in Iowa, underscoring the need for a comprehensive evaluation of the program.     

Improving health care for disabled people in COVID-19 and beyond: Lessons from Australia and England

COVID-19 has exacerbated pre-existing difficulties children and adults with disability face accessing quality health care. Some people with disability are at greater risk of contracting COVID-19 because they require support for personal care and are unable to physically distance, e.g. those living in congregate settings. Additionally, some people with disability have health conditions that put them at higher risk of poor outcomes if they become infected. Despite this, governments have been slow to recognise, and respond to, the unique and diverse health care needs of people with disability during COVID-19. While some countries, including Australia, have improved access to high-quality health care for people with disability others, like England, have failed to support their citizens with disability. In this Commentary we describe the health care responses of England and Australia and make recommendations for rapidly improving health care for people with disability in the pandemic and beyond.
