Xu X., Mishra G.D., Holt-Lunstad J., et al. Social relationship satisfaction and accumulation of chronic conditions and multimorbidity: a national cohort of Australian women General Psychiatry 2023;36.

Background Social relationships are associated with mortality and chronic conditions. However, little is known about the effects of social relationship satisfaction on multiple chronic conditions (multimorbidity).

Aims To examine whether social relationship satisfaction is associated with the accumulation of multimorbidity.

Methods Data from 7 694 Australian women who were free from 11 chronic conditions at 45–50 years of age in 1996 were analysed. Five types of social relationship satisfaction (partner, family members, friends, work and social activities) were measured approximately every 3 years and scored from 0 (very dissatisfied) to 3 (very satisfied). Scores from each relationship type were summed to provide an overall satisfaction score (range: ≤5–15). The outcome of interest was the accumulation of multimorbidity in 11 chronic conditions.

Results Over a 20-year period, 4 484 (58.3%) women reported multimorbidities. Overall, the level of social relationship satisfaction had a dose–response relationship with the accumulation of multimorbidities. Compared with women reporting the highest satisfaction (score 15), women with the lowest satisfaction (score ≤5) had the highest odds of accumulating multimorbidity (odds ratio (OR)= 2.35, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.94 to 2.83) in the adjusted model. Similar results were observed for each social relationship type. Other risk factors, such as socioeconomic, behavioural and menopausal status, together explained 22.72% of the association.

Conclusions Social relationship satisfaction is associated with the accumulation of multimorbidity, and the relationship is only partly explained by socioeconomic, behavioural and reproductive factors. Social connections (eg, satisfaction with social relationships) should be considered a public health priority in chronic disease prevention and intervention.

Why new year’s resolutions fail

Published on January 4, 2022 in Allenatori, Calcio, Corsa, Generale, Giovani, Mental coaching, Olimpiadi, Stress, Tennis and Tiro a volo. 0 Comments Tags: amici, aspettative, progetti.

The first days of the year are generally those in which people express good intentions to change Usually they want to become more physically active, follow a diet, have more time and take care of themselves, reduce the stresses of daily life and so on.

Many of these projects remain at the level of intention without ever being translated into practice, others are carried out for a while and few are those that become part of daily life, changing it in a positive and lasting way. The latter are conducted by people who have managed to transform their discomfort through actions from which they derive pleasure, perhaps they have chosen activities that they feel close to their character and in which they feel supported by their partner, family and friends. When this attunement is achieved, it is much more likely that the projects of change will be successful and change their lifestyle in a stable way.

On the contrary, in the absence of this combination of factors, the activities that lead to change are perceived as boring or too tiring, the pleasure is completely absent and people feel obliged to follow what they are told, as if they were following a medical treatment. It is quite obvious that when faced with the first obstacles these people abandon their initial plans.

Basically, before jumping into new projects it is necessary to be aware of what are the new and more positive activities that could produce a feeling of pleasure and what is needed to produce a positive emotional impact on oneself. Without finally forgetting to have good supporters to the realization of this change.

Motivation to outdoor activities

Published on December 30, 2013 in Generale and Giovani. 0 Comments Tags: adolescenti, amici, esercizio fisico, famiglia, outdoor.

Youth outdoor participants see outdoor activities as a way to spend time with family and friends. While adolescents are also motivated by enjoying time with loved ones, slightly more participants in this age group cite exercise as their top motivator for outdoor participation. Young adults are also motivated by exercise and much less motivated by family and friends.

Bombs was for the recreational runners and families

Published on April 17, 2013 in Corsa and Generale. 0 Comments Tags: amatori, amici, bomba, Boston, famiglia, festeggiare, maratona.

The bombs seemed designed more for the masses than the monumental. The explosions went off well after the small crowd of elite runners had crossed the finish line. (Last year’s average time was 4:18:27.) The thick stream of recreational runners — regular folk who would never have a shot at the Olympics — was flowing in then, and mothers and brothers and lovers and kids were waiting at the end to cheer them on. Just to run in the Boston Marathon, for them, was the moment of a lifetime.

The relevance of a good affective and social environment

Published on July 16, 2012 in Generale. 0 Comments Tags: amici, genitori, Tania Cagnotto.

In an interview with La Stampa today, the Italian diver Tania Cagnotto explains how important it is her social environment: “I distinguish very well life from the pool, a podium would make me feel in heaven, but my life is another thing and it would not be affected in any case. My boyfriend, my friends, my parents, it will not change anything for them and those are my significant persons. ” Speaking of school friends that following her in London she says: “I like the idea of sisterhood, understanding each other, share. It’s a micro-community from which I take energy. And to complete the support women there will be even my mother. ” It confirms once again the role played by her own social and emotional environment for the athletes of the highest level. This is nothing new, it happens all over the world, and should be remembered to those coaches who say that children are best to train are the orphans, because they have not parents who are protesting.
