The role of calcium regulation in brain aging: reexamination of a hypothesisAging Clinical and Experimental Research - Tập 1 - Trang 17-34 - 2013
Zaven S. Khachaturian
Studies of the central nervous system have a long history; however, it is only recently that we have begun to understand brain function in health and disease states. And, the topic of the aging brain has become a subject of intense study for a short period. At present, the process of normal aging is relatively poorly understood. Although there are a number of theories of aging, no single theory ap...... hiện toàn bộ
Predictors for institutionalization and prosthetic ambulation after major lower extremity amputation during an eight-year follow-upAging Clinical and Experimental Research - Tập 21 - Trang 129-135 - 2013
Leena Remes, Raimo Isoaho, Tero Vahlberg, Matti Viitanen, Päivi Rautava
Background and aims: Major lower extremity amputation (LEA) leads to great loss in mobility, exposing old people to the risk of losing their independent living status. This study applies predictors for institutionalization and considers prosthesis use by major lower leg amputees with peripheral arterial disease (PAD). Methods: 119 PAD patients admitted from home (mean age 73.6, SD...... hiện toàn bộ
Predictors of institutionalization in people with dementia: a survey linked with administrative dataAging Clinical and Experimental Research - Tập 30 - Trang 35-43 - 2017
Rebecca Runte
For people with dementia, moving into a nursing home is usually considered at some point in time. Currently available information on predictors of institutionalization is often based on small sample sizes, not taking competing risks into account, and with inconclusive results for sex. We aimed to carry out an analysis stratified by sex and using a competing risk approach. We carried out an analysi...... hiện toàn bộ

Which factors influence the oral health of nursing-home residents with cognitive and motor impairments?Aging Clinical and Experimental Research - Tập 33 - Trang 85-93 - 2020
Anna-Luisa Klotz, Melania Zajac, Judith Ehret, Samuel Kilian, Peter Rammelsberg, Andreas Zenthöfer
There is limited information available about the oral and denture hygiene and oral health of nursing-home residents with cognitive and motor impairments. The purpose of this study was to identify factors influencing the oral and denture hygiene and oral health of nursing-home residents with cognitive and motor impairments. The study was performed in nine nursing-homes in Germany. Sociodemographic ...... hiện toàn bộ
Effect of oral vitamin D2 yearly bolus on hip fracture risk in elderly women: a community primary prevention studyAging Clinical and Experimental Research - Tập 16 - Trang 432-436 - 2013
Maurizio Rossini, Valerio Alberti, Luciano Flor, Lucia Masiero, Sandro Giannini, Davide Gatti, Silvano Adami
Background and aims: Vitamin D deficiency is a well-known risk for hip fracture, and vitamin D insufficiency is so frequent in the elderly that population-wide preventive intervention would be useful. The objective of the study was to evaluate the efficacy of vitamin D bolus on hip fracture incidence in elderly women. Methods: All women aged >65 years registered at Health District...... hiện toàn bộ
A single bisphosphonate infusion is associated with improved functional capacity in elderly subjects with primary hyperparathyroidismAging Clinical and Experimental Research - Tập 15 - Trang 500-504 - 2013
Patrick Ammann, Catherine Herter-Clavel, Alessandro Lubrano, René Rizzoli
Background and aims: Neuromuscular symptoms are frequent features of primary hyperparathyroidism in elderly patients. Whether these symptoms are related to concomitant disorders or to hypercalcemia is of major importance in selecting patients who could benefit by parathyroidectomy. To address this hypothesis, we investigated the effects of transient normalization of calcemia on fu...... hiện toàn bộ
