    1. In addition to presenting a higher risk of malnutrition, the prevalence ofcognitive deficits and other neurological disorders is high among home care older adults.The findings of this review regarding the association between nutritional status and depres-sion and subsequent cognitive performance are somewhat limited and should thereforebe interpreted with caution.

      This section highlights the importance of taking caution when looking at medications within the elderly community. As this generation ages, it is more common for them to take in less calories leading to malnutrition and it can be affected by cognitive disabilities like dementia, depression, etc. It is important to be looking into the possible reasoning for the malnutrition.

    1. Everyday ageism differed by indicators of lowersocioeconomic status (ie, education, income, and employment). Adults in rural areas (11.07 [95% CI,10.45-11.68]) reported more everyday ageism than those in metropolitan areas (10.06 [95% CI,9.40-10.72]; P = .003), as did those in the Midwest (10.57 [95% CI, 9.90-11.23]) compared with thosein the Northeast (9.68 [95% CI, 9.18-10.18; P = .006). Adults spending more than 4 hours daily onmedia reported more everyday ageism (11.03 [95% CI, 10.47-11.60]) than those with less media use(2-4 hours: 10.35 [95% CI, 9.83-10.87]; P = .004; <2 hours: 9.21 [95% CI, 8.81-9.61]; P < .001)

      I liked how this section was incorporated since there is not one specific reason for everyday ageism. I also like how it shows the difference in how the use of social media can change someone. This can help people caring for this population to understand factors that have gone into everyday ageism.
