The integration of frailty measures in clinical practice is crucial for the development interventions against disabling conditions older persons. phenotype (proposed and validated by Fried colleagues Cardiovascular Health Study) Frailty Index Rockwood Canadian Study Aging) represent most known operational definitions Unfortunately, they are often wrongly considered as alternatives and/or substitutables. These two instruments indeed very different should rather be complementary. In present...
Sarcopenia, the age-related skeletal muscle decline, is associated with relevant clinical and socioeconomic negative outcomes in older persons. The study of this phenomenon development preventive/therapeutic strategies represent public health priorities. present document reports results a recent meeting International Working Group on Sarcopenia (a task force consisting geriatricians scientists from academia industry) held June 7-8, 2011 Toulouse (France). was specifically focused at gaining...
The frailty syndrome is a pre-disability condition suitable to be targeted by preventive interventions against disability. In order identify frail older persons at risk of negative outcomes, general practitioners must provided with an easy and quick screening tool for detecting without special effort. the present paper, we that Gérontopôle Toulouse (France) has developed implemented in primary care region collaboration Department Family Medicine University Toulouse.

Background: common pathophysiological pathways are shared between age-related body composition changes and cognitive impairment. Objective: evaluate whether current operative sarcopenia definitions associated with cognition in community-dwelling older women. Design: cross-sectional analyses. Subjects: a total of 3,025 women aged 75 years older. Measurements: (assessed by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry) (measured short portable mental status questionnaire) were obtained all participants....
Muscle mass index has long been used as a useful to evaluate the risks of developing functional impairments. However, there is evidence that other indexes (particularly muscle strength–based indexes) may be more relevant. Thus, purpose this study was compare association between different or strength with self-reported and measured performance determine which would clinically relevant detect individuals at risk Data are from 1,462 women aged 75 years older recruited in Toulouse EPIDémiologie...
