AIM: Frailty is defined as extreme vulnerability, a syndrome that exposes the individual to a higher risk of disability. While risk factors for frailty have been gradually uncovered, the full identification of biochemical factors and co-morbidities influencing frailty remains incomplete. METHODS: Cross-sectional and longitudinal analyses were performed to elucidate the risk factors for the prevalence and progression of frailty. The study included 1035 Japanese female outpatients...

INTRODUCTION: Evidence on the effects of Vitamin D, omega-3 s and exercise on aBMD in healthy older adults is limited. We examined whether vitamin D3, omega-3 s, or a simple home-based exercise program (SHEP), alone or in combination, over three years, improve lumbar spine (LS), femoral neck (FN) or total hip (TH) aBMD assessed by DXA. METHODS: aBMD was a secondary outcome in DO-HEALTH, a 3-year, multicenter, double-blind, randomized 2 × 2 × 2 factorial design trial in generally healthy older adults age ≥ 70 years...

UNLABELLED: A retrospective analysis was conducted using data from the NHANES. Bone mineral density (BMD) was compared in different thyroid-specific autoantibodies groups. Strengths of associations were calculated by using binary logistic regression models. Higher titers of thyroid-specific autoantibodies (TgAb and/or TPOAb) may lead to decreased BMD. Higher prevalence of TgAb and TPOAb significantly associated with fractures in females but not in males. PURPOSE: Hashimoto's thyroiditis is characterized by elevated thyroid-specific autoantibodies...

CONTEXT: Hyponatremia is associated with increased risk of osteoporosis and fractures. The impact of hyponatremia on non-invasive indices of bone quality, however, is unknown. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate whether trabecular bone microarchitecture, assessed non-invasively by trabecular bone score (TBS), is altered in patients with hyponatremia. METHODS: We conducted a cross-sectional analysis of the population-based 2005-2008 cycles of the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES), in which TBS measurement was performed...

PURPOSE: This study conducted in Dena County is a population-based cohort study as part of the Prospective Epidemiological Research Studies in Iran (PERSIAN). The specific objectives of this study were to estimate the prevalence of region-specific modifiable risk factors and their associations with the incidence of major non-communicable diseases (NCDs). PARTICIPANTS: This PERSIAN Dena Cohort Study (PDCS) was conducted on 1561 men and 2069 women aged 35-70 years from October 2016 in Dena County, Kohgiluyeh and Boyer-Ahmad Province, Southwest Iran...

BACKGROUND: The effect of clinical interventions may vary by patients' frailty status. Understanding treatment effect heterogeneity by frailty could lead to frailty-guided treatment strategies and reduce overtreatment and undertreatment. This systematic review aimed to examine the effect modification by frailty in randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that evaluate pharmacological, non-pharmacological, and multicomponent interventions. METHODS: We searched PubMed, Web of Science, EMBASE, and ClinicalTrial...

A growing number of probiotic-containing products are on the market, and their use is increasing. Probiotics are thought to support the health of the gut microbiota, which in turn might prevent or delay the onset of gastrointestinal tract disorders. Obesity, type 2 diabetes, autism, osteoporosis, and some immunological illnesses are among the conditions that have been shown to possibly benefit from probiotics. In addition to their ability to favorably affect diseases, probiotics represent a defense system enhancing intestinal, nutritional, and oral health...

Sarcopenia is a significant health concern primarily affecting old adult individuals, characterized by age-related muscle loss, and decreased strength, power, and endurance. It has profound negative effects on overall health and quality of life, including reduced independence, mobility, and daily activity performance, osteoporosis, increased fall and fracture risks, metabolic issues, and chronic diseases like diabetes and cardiovascular conditions. Preventive strategies typically involve a combination of proper nutrition and regular physical activity...

BACKGROUND: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), a fast-growing issue in public health, is one of the most common chronic metabolic disorders in older individuals. Osteoporosis and sarcopenia are highly prevalent in T2DM patients and may result in fractures and disabilities. In people with T2DM, the association between nutrition, sarcopenia, and osteoporosis has rarely been explored. AIM: To evaluate the connections among nutrition, bone mineral density (BMD) and body composition in patients with T2DM...

BACKGROUND & AIMS: The elderly are prone to fragility fractures, especially those suffering from type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) combined with osteoporosis. Although studies have confirmed the association between GNRI and the prevalence of osteoporosis, the relationship between GNRI and fragility fracture risk and the individualized 10-year probability of osteoporotic fragility fractures estimated by FRAX remains unclear. This study aims to delve into the association between the GNRI and a fragility fracture and the 10-year probability of hip fracture (HF) and major osteoporotic fracture (MOF) evaluated by FRAX in elderly with T2DM...

AIM: To investigate the association between cognitive function and body composition in older adults. METHODS: We collected data on 2080 older adults (>60 years of age) from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) for the years 1999-2000 and 2001-2002. Candidate variables included: demographic data (sex, age, race, education level, marital status, poverty-to-income ratio), alcohol consumption, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, osteoporosis, total bone mineral density, and total fat mass...

CONTEXT: Osteoporotic fracture is a major public health issue globally. Human research on the association between amino acids (AAs) and fracture is still lacking. OBJECTIVE: To examine the association between AAs and recent osteoporotic fractures.
