  • Peripheral bone structure, geometry, and strength and muscle density as derived from peripheral quantitative computed tomography and mortality among rural south Indian older adults

    Open AccessGuru Rajesh Jammy, Robert M Boudreau et al.ARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2022

    Multiple studies have observed a relationship of bone mineral density (BMD) measured by Dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and mortality. However, areal BMD (aBMD) measured by DXA is an integrated measure of trabecular and cortical bone and does not measure the geometry of bone. Peripheral Quantitative Computed Tomography (pQCT) provides greater insights on bone structure, geometry and strength. To examine whether higher bone phenotypes and m…

  • Relationship Between Personality Measures and Perceived Mental Fatigability

    Open AccessHannah L Allen, Theresa Gmelin et al.ARTICLEJournal of Aging and Health2021References: 5

    Lower conscientiousness, optimism, and higher goal reengagement were linked with more severe perceived mental fatigability in older men. Personality traits may potentially contribute to early risk assessment for fatigability in later life. Future work should be longitudinal in nature and include personality assessments to confirm the temporality of the relationships observed

  • Association Between 6-Minute Walk Test and All-Cause Mortality, Coronary Heart Disease–Specific Mortality, and Incident Coronary Heart Disease

    Open AccessAli Yazdanyar, Michael M Aziz et al.ARTICLEJournal of Aging and Health2014References: 1

    Performance on the 6 MWT is independently associated with all-cause mortality and is of prognostic utility in community-dwelling older adults

  • Primary Prevention of Falls

    Steven M Albert, Jennifer King et al.ARTICLEAmerican Journal of Public Health2014Cited by: 2References: 20

    Objectives. We examined a population-wide program, Pennsylvania’s Healthy Steps for Older Adults (HSOA), designed to reduce the incidence of falls among older adults. Older adults completing HSOA are screened and educated regarding fall risk, and those identified as being at high risk are referred to primary care providers and home safety resources. Methods. From 2010 to 2011, older adults who completed HSOA at various senior center sites (n = 81…

  • The Key to Life Nutrition Program

    Open AccessJoseph F Robare, N Carole Milas et al.ARTICLEPublic Health Nutrition2010

    Objective Evaluation of a dietary Na reduction trial in a community setting. Design Community-based randomized trial. Ten-week nutrition intervention activities focused on lifestyle modification to decrease dietary Na intake, under the supervision of a registered dietitian. Twenty-four hour urine specimens were collected at baseline and follow-up visits to determine 24 h urinary Na excretion. Setting The University of Pittsburgh Center for Health…
