Abstract Background Accurate quality of life (QoL) data and functional results after cancer surgery are lacking for older patients. The international, multicenter Geriatric Oncology Surgical Assessment Functional rEcovery Surgery (GOSAFE) Study compares QoL before identifies predictors decline in QoL. Methods GOSAFE prospectively collected major elective on adults (≥70 years). Frailty assessment was performed postoperative outcomes recorded (30, 90, 180 days postoperatively) together with by...
The GOSAFE study evaluates risk factors for failing to achieve good quality of life (QoL) and functional recovery (FR) in older patients undergoing surgery colon rectal cancer.
Strategies of cell therapy for the treatment Parkinson's disease (PD) are focused on replacing damaged neurons with cells to restore or improve function that is impaired due population damage. In our studies, we used mesenchymal stromal (MSCs) from mouse bone marrow. Following novel neuronal differentiation method, found basic cellular phenotype changed neural morphology express specific markers including those characteristic dopaminergic neurons, such as tyrosine hydroxylase (TH)....
<b><i>Introduction:</i></b> The association of anemia with dementia in elders is controversial. We examined the potential a large population elders. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> Historical-prospective registry-based study. Included 36,951 community-dwelling (65–113 years) that were followed during 2002–2012. Anemia all kinds was defined according to Clalit Health Services (CHS) definitions: hemoglobin (HGB) &#x3c;14 g/dL men, &#x3c;12 women;...
Abstract Background Malnutrition is a prevalent and hard-to-treat condition in older adults. enteral feeding common acute long-term care. Data regarding the prognosis of patients receiving geriatric medical settings lacking. Such data important for decision-making preliminary instructions patients, caregivers, physicians. This study aimed to evaluate risk factors mortality among adults admitted center or starting nutrition (EN). Methods A cohort retrospective study, conducted from 2019 2021....
Several studies described neutrophil–lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and platelet–lymphocyte (PLR) as markers of COVID-19 severity. In a recently published study, age frailty affected NLR PLR more than disease The study compared two distinct cohorts. first comprised older frailer patients positive for SARS-CoV-2, with mild or asymptomatic disease, admitted to designated departments in large geriatric medical center (GMC). second cohort general hospital (GH) symptomatic disease. This was follow-up...
Chest pain is one of the most common reasons for emergency department (ED) visits. Patients presenting with inconclusive symptoms complicate diagnostic process and add to burden upon ED. This study aimed determine factors possibly influencing ED decisions on hospitalization versus discharge patients diagnosis chest pain.
The neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and platelet-lymphocyte (PLR) are simple markers of systemic inflammatory responses. It has been previously suggested that they can predict COVID-19 severity. Age frailty may also influence their values. This study aimed to evaluate the impact severity versus age on NLR PLR was a retrospective, observational two cohorts' comparative study. first cohort is comprised patents positive for SARS-CoV-2, with mild or asymptomatic disease, admitted designated...
Hip fractures are a significant health risk in older adults and major cause of morbidity, functional decline mortality. Our aim was to compare clinical outcomes patients hospitalized an ortho-geriatric (OG) unit those orthopedic department (OD) for surgical treatment hip fracture.A retrospective cohort study fractured between 2015-2016 single tertiary university-affiliated medical center. Included were aged 65 who had undergone fracture surgery admitted either geriatric or ward.441 met the...

Nursing care residents have high hospitalization rates. To address this, we established a unique virtual geriatric unit that has developed program aimed at providing support to nursing homes.
The novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 has caused a pandemic threatening millions of people worldwide. This study aimed to describe clinical characteristics, outcomes, and risk factors SARS-CoV-2-positive, asymptomatic, frail older adults.A retrospective cohort was conducted in 6 designated COVID-19 units, skilled nursing homes. Subjects were severely adults, positive for SARS-CoV-2, asymptomatic at the time their admission these units. Residents' characteristics symptoms obtained via electronic...
<b><i>Background/Aims:</i></b> The novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 is the cause of an ongoing pandemic. highest mortality rate observed among older adult population. During first wave pandemic (March–June 2020), following a national health decree demanding that no visitors or family members be allowed in institutions, our geriatric rehabilitation center closed gates to all from outside. We aimed assess outcomes patients with hip fractures wave, who underwent under...
