Falls are a common public health problem in older adults regarding increased morbidity, mortality, and healthcare costs. Determining the factors associated with falls is of utmost importance for detecting at risk people. We present here field study conducted to examine prevalence among community-dwelling adults.In this population-based cross-sectional study, we included aged > 60 years living Fatih District Istanbul Province between November 2014-May 2015, through simple random sampling...
Studies examining mortality in palliative care units are limited. We aimed to investigate the and associated factors including ultrasonographic muscle parameters hospitalized patients with a subgroup analysis of older patients.A prospective-observational study. recorded demographics, number diseases, diagnoses, Charlson comorbidity index (CCI), performance scale (PPS), nutritional risk screening-2002 (NRS-2002) scores. noted mortality. measured subcutaneous fat thickness (SFT), (MT),...
There are studies on associations between obesity and mortality in nursing home (NH) residents, but the presence of concomitant muscle weakness has not been examined. We considered that self-reported might be a low strength proxy marker. aimed to examine alone, their combination with NH residents.This is retrospective longitudinal follow-up study. noted age, sex, nutritional status, functionality, number chronic diseases, regular medication. Obesity was assessed by body fat-percentage method...
Sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors have been recently introduced for type 2 diabetes treatment with significant cardiovascular, renal benefits. Yet, they frequently refrained in older adults. Metformin is regarded the first-line therapy all ages; still it associated weight loss and frailty We aimed to outline our experience three oldest-old patients high cardiovascular risk managed SGLT-2 inhibitors, five anorexia/weight by metformin cessation.We outlined demographics,...
Abstract Objective The prevalence of obesity by fat percentage has seen a steady increase in older adults recent years, secondary to increases mass body composition, even healthy aging. Malnutrition is common geriatric syndrome with serious clinical outcomes. Increases and waist circumference aging should not prevent the risk malnutrition from being masked. often ignored obese people due low BMI cut-off values many screening tests. present study seeks raise awareness need assess frequency...
Aims: Relationships between muscle mass measured using different methods at sites and several biochemical variables have been reported.The biceps brachii can easily be assessed by ultrasonography (USG).This study investigated the relationship ultrasonographically complete blood cell count chemistry in older palliative care patients. Methods:A cross-sectional observational was conducted June 2023 August an institutional setting.Demographic characteristics, comorbidities, Nutritional Risk...
We have aimed to investigate the role of ultrasonographic muscle parameters (UMP) in predicting osteosarcopenia bedridden patients a palliative care center.
There are limited data on the comparison of body compositions between diabetic and non-diabetic patients. We aimed to compare muscle mass fat parameters measured by ultrasonography (USG) dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) older palliative care patients with without type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM).
Objective: Malnutrition is a treatable condition and an important cause of mortality morbidity in the geriatric population.In this study, we aimed to investigate risk factors for malnutrition patients. Materials Methods:Patients aged 65 over, who were admitted our center between January 2016 December 2017, included study.Patients with edema, whose anthropometric measurements could not be performed did agree participate study excluded from study.The Mini Nutritional Assessment-Short-Form was...
SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: While the literature contains several studies on frailty assessed during hospitalization and/or outpatient settings and nursing homes, few have in community-dwelling older adults. We investigated prevalence of associated factors among adults a sample METHODS: included >60 years living Fatih District Istanbul Province. conducted study between November 2014 May 2015. collected data such as age, sex, number diseases drugs, functional status, frailty, presence geriatric...
