Aim: In diet therapy for diabetes, optimal energy intake and the energy
distribution of macronutrients (protein : fat : carbohydrate [PFC] energy ratio)
are important. We aimed to clarify the correlation between the PFC energy ratio
and metabolic parameters including glycated hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) and
triglycerides in Japanese elderly patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus aged
65 years or older... hiện toàn bộ
Usefulness of chair stand time as a surrogate of gait speed in diagnosing sarcopeniaGeriatrics and Gerontology International - Tập 17 Số 4 - Trang 659-661 - 2017

AimDetermining gait speed as a measure of physical performance is recommended in
diagnosing sarcopenia. Gait speed measurements require a certain amount of space
(e.g. a 6‐m course), and might not be feasible in clinical settings or heath
checkup examination sites. We developed a formula to estimate chair stand time
based on gait speed, and examined the validity (sensitivity and specificity) of
us... hiện toàn bộ
Systematic review of the Kihon Checklist: Is it a reliable assessment of frailty?Geriatrics and Gerontology International - Tập 16 Số 8 - Trang 893-902 - 2016
Priscila Yukari Sewo Sampaio, Ricardo Aurélio Carvalho Sampaio, Minoru Yamada, Hidenori Arai
AimTo investigate whether the Kihon Checklist (KCL) can predict frailty and
disability.MethodsThe studies analyzed for the present review were retrieved by
searching electronic databases and other sources using the keywords “Kihon
Checklist” and “Basic Checklist.” The articles were restricted to those written
in English and published in health sciences journals from the year 2006 until
the end of ... hiện toàn bộ
Classification of frailty using the Kihon checklist: A cluster analysis of older adults in urban areasGeriatrics and Gerontology International - Tập 17 Số 1 - Trang 69-77 - 2017

AimFrailty is an important predictor of the need for long‐term care and
hospitalization. Our aim was to categorize frailty in community‐dwelling older
adults.MethodsThe present study was carried out in 2011–2013, and consisted of
1380 individuals over 65 years of age. Participants completed the Kihon
checklist, which is widely used to assess frailty in Japan, and their physical,
cognitive and soci... hiện toàn bộ
Validity of the Kihon Checklist for assessing frailty statusGeriatrics and Gerontology International - Tập 16 Số 6 - Trang 709-715 - 2016

AimThe Kihon Checklist is extensively used in Japan to identify elderly persons
who are at risk of requiring support/care. We aimed to determine whether or not
the Kihon Checklist can estimate frailty status defined by the Cardiovascular
Health Study criteria.MethodsThis cross‐sectional study evaluated the Kihon
Checklist and activities of daily living based on self‐records maintained with
the ass... hiện toàn bộ
Relationship between psychological pain and death anxiety with comprehensive geriatric assessment in older adultsGeriatrics and Gerontology International - Tập 20 Số 11 - Trang 1056-1060 - 2020

AimPsychological pain refers to the torment that results from adverse
experiences, such as loneliness, guilt, frustration, hopelessness or loss.
Psychological pain may impair physical and psychosocial functioning of older
adults. Death anxiety is associated with cognitive function deterioration,
change to social environment and increased risk of depression. This study
investigated associations amo... hiện toàn bộ
Risk factors and prognostic implications of aspiration pneumonia in older hip fracture patients: A multicenter retrospective analysisGeriatrics and Gerontology International - Tập 19 Số 2 - Trang 119-123 - 2019

AimThe present study aimed to investigate the risk factors and prognostic
implications of aspiration pneumonia in older hip fracture patients.MethodsA
total of 394 female and 125 male hip fracture patients aged ≥60 years who
underwent surgery between 2015 and 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. To
identify risk factors of aspiration pneumonia, demographic factors, the American
