Treatment of Hypertension in Older Persons: What Is the Evidence?Springer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 31 - Trang 331-337 - 2014
John E. Morley
Evidence for treatment of hypertension in older people is limited to placebo-controlled studies that reduced blood pressure in persons over 60 years who had systolic blood pressure >160 mmHg. Generally, physicians measure blood pressure poorly, failing to look for white coat or masked hypertension, orthostasis, postprandial hypotension, or pseudohypertension. There is evidence that if 24-hour ambu...... hiện toàn bộ

The aim of this study was to estimate the comparative safety of initiating commonly used opioids among older, long-stay United States nursing home residents with fracture hospitalizations. We conducted a new-user retrospective cohort study of nursing home residents initiating short-acting oxycodone, hydrocodone, or tramadol by merging the 2011–2013 Minimum Data Set 3.0 to Medicare hospitalization ...... hiện toàn bộ

The prevalence of diabetes mellitus increases markedly with age. Furthermore, advancing age is a strong risk factor for diabetic neuropathy, independent of the duration of diabetes mellitus and glycaemic control. Several biological changes occurring during the aging process may account for the facilitating effect of age on diabetic neuropathy. These include an increase in the production of advance...... hiện toàn bộ

Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is the leading cause of irreversible visual loss in the industrialised world. Although relatively simple to diagnose through direct visualisation augmented with rapid sequence fluorescein angiography, treatment has presented a far greater challenge because the true aetiology of AMD is largely unknown. Within the past decade, researchers have introduced many n...... hiện toàn bộ
Hypertension in the ElderlySpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 22 - Trang 297-314 - 2012
Toshio Ogihara, Hiromi Rakugi
Elderly individuals with hypertension show specific characteristics as a result of advancing arteriosclerosis, a high frequency of isolated systolic hypertension, increased pulse pressure and orthostatic hypotension. The necessity to treat hypertension in the elderly, including isolated systolic hypertension, has been demonstrated in many large-scale intervention trials. Young-old (65–74 years of ...... hiện toàn bộ
