Does physical exercise improve obstacle negotiation in the elderly? A systematic review
In general, longer training programs had better results and very short ones were not effective. A weekly frequency of 2–3 times was the most common among the studies showing positive effects. Regardless of exercises types performed, most of them were effective and so far, there is no consensus about the best exercise for improving obstacle negotiation. A lack of studies on this topic still is evident. Including a record of fall score can further help in deciding which programs are to be preferred. (Source: Archives of Gerontology and Geriatrics)

The maintaining and improving effect of grandchild care provision on elders’ mental health—Evidence from longitudinal study in Taiwan
Due to increasing life expectancy and falling fertility, the role of grandparent has become a normal stage in the family cycle as most people now have more years to spend on grandchildren than ever before. While grandparenthood played more important role in multi-generational family, the importance of the health effect from intergenerational exchanges between grandparents and grandchild increased (Bengtson, 2001; Uhlenberg, 2009).
