    Abstract Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, many older adults have experienced contact isolation in a hospital setting which leads to separation from relatives, loss of freedom, and uncertainty regarding disease status. The objective of this study was to explore how older adults (55+) cope with contact isolation in a hospital setting during the COVID-19 pandemic in order to improve their physical and psychological wellbeing. The realist evaluation approach was used to formulate initial program theories on coping strategies used by (older) adults in an isolation setting. Twenty-one semi-structured interviews with older patients (

    Abstract Objectives: To explore food consumption among different sex, age, ethnic, urban, education and income groups in Suriname.
    Methods: Data from a cross-sectional population study (n = 5748; 15-64 year) were used. Food consumption was defined adequate if (1) fruit and vegetable intake was conformable to WHO recommendations, (2) mostly vegetable oil was used, and (3) whole-wheat products were used ≥ 3 days/week. Food consumption was defined excessive if 3 out of the following 5 items scored positive: consumption of (1) snack, (2) sweet, (3) fast food, or (4) soft drink ≥ 3 days/week, or (5) salt was always added while preparing a hot meal.
    Results: 6.4% (95% CI 5.8-7.1) had an adequate and 21.9% (95% CI 20.9-23.0) an excessive food consumption pattern, with differences among ethnic groups (p < 0.05). Adequate consumption increased, while excessive consumption decreased with increasing age (p < 0.05). Both adequate and excessive consumption increased with higher degree of urbanization, level of education and income (p < 0.05). Except for level of education for adequate consumption, all characteristics remained in both models with adequate and excessive consumption as outcome (p < 0.09).
    Conclusions: Our study suggests interventions to promote adequate food consumption in general and to limit excessive food consumption mainly focused on youngsters and those living in urbanized areas of higher socioeconomic status.

    Abstract Aortic pulse wave velocity has emerged as an important predictor of cardiovascular events, but data on ethnic differences in pulse wave velocity remain scarce. We explored differences in pulse wave velocity between people of Asian and African ancestry. Data were used from the cross-sectional Healthy Life in Suriname (HELISUR) study. Pulse wave velocity was estimated oscillometrically with the Arteriograph. We included 353 Asians and 364 Africans, aged respectively 44.9 (SD 13.5) and 42.8 (SD 14.1) years (p = 0.05). Crude median PWV was higher in Asians than in Africans (8.1 [IQR 6.9-10.1] m/s vs. 7.7 [IQR 6.5-9.3] m/s, p = 0.03), which was mainly attributable to an increased PWV in Asians ≥ 50 years (10.1 [IQR 8.7-11.8] m/s vs. 9.1 [IQR 7.9-11.3] m/s in Africans ≥50 years, p < 0.01). After adjustment for age and MAP in multivariable linear regression, Asians had a 1.044 [95% CI 1.019-1.072] m/s higher PWV compared to Africans. Additional adjustment for sex, glucose, total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, triglycerides, BMI, and waist circumference did not substantially change the difference in pulse wave velocity between Asians and Africans (+1.044 [95% CI 1.016-1.074] m/s for Asians vs. Africans). In conclusion, persons of Asian ancestry have a higher pulse wave velocity than those of African ancestry. This persisted after adjustment for important cardiovascular risk parameters, including age and blood pressure. The higher PWV found in Asians could be consistent with their increased coronary heart disease risk.

    Abstract Background: Hypertension is the leading risk factor responsible for premature death worldwide, but its burden has shifted to low- and middle-income countries. Therefore, we studied hypertension and cardiovascular risk in the population of Suriname, a middle-income country with a predominantly urban population of African and Asian ancestry.
    Methods: A random sample of 1,800 noninstitutionalized men and women aged 18-70 years was selected to be interviewed at home and examined at the local hospital for cardiovascular risk factors, asymptomatic organ damage, and cardiovascular disease.
    Results: The 1,157 participants examined (37% men) were mainly of self-defined Asian (43%) or African (39%) ancestry, mean age 43 years (SD 14). The majority of the population (71%) had hypertension or prehypertension, respectively, 40% and 31%. Furthermore, 72% was obese or overweight, while 63% had diabetes or prediabetes. Only 1% of the adult population had an optimal cardiovascular risk profile. Hypertension awareness, treatment, and control were respectively 68%, 56%, and 20%. In line with this, 22% of the adult population had asymptomatic organ damage, including increased arterial stiffness, left ventricular hypertrophy, microalbuminuria, or asymptomatic chronic kidney disease.
    Conclusions: In this first extensive cardiovascular assessment in the general population of this middle-income Caribbean country, high prevalence of hypertension with inadequate levels of treatment and control was predominant. The findings emphasize the need for collaborative effort from national and international bodies to prioritize the implementation of affordable and sustainable public health programs that combat the escalating hypertension and cardiovascular risk factor burden.

    Abstract Background: RhD negativity is distributed unevenly among different ethnicities. In this study we explored the frequencies of RhD negativity in pregnant women in multiethnic Suriname, along with screening results for red blood cell (RBC) antibodies in these women and their offspring. Results may help identify women at risk for hemolytic disease of the fetus and newborn.
    Study design and methods: A retrospective study was performed in pregnant women who delivered at three major hospitals in Suriname between January 1, 2013, and December 31, 2014.
    Results: The overall prevalences of RhD negativity among 8686 women was 4.3%. The percentages of RhD negativity in Maroons, Creoles, and Hindustani women were 7.2, 5.4, and 3.7%, respectively. Chinese and Javanese women had very low prevalences of 0.8 and 0.5%, respectively, and Amerindians showed no RhD negativity. Antibody screening was positive in six D- (five Maroons and one Creole) women and weakly positive in three women (two Creoles and one Maroon), making overall antibody prevalence 4.4%. In 15 (5.5%; 10 Maroons, four Creoles, one Chinese) newborns from D- mothers antibody screening was positive.
    Conclusion: In the multiethnic Surinamese population RhD negativity among pregnant women varied between 0.0 and 7.2% between ethnic groups. RBC antibodies were detected during pregnancy and in newborns in 4.4 and 5.5%, respectively.
