Graded Association Between Kidney Function and Impaired Orthostatic Blood Pressure Stabilization in Older Adults

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2017
Background Impaired orthostatic blood pressure (BP) stabilization is highly prevalent in older adults and is a predictor of end‐organ injury, falls, and mortality.

Multisensory integration precision is associated with better cognitive performance over time in older adults: A large-scale exploratory study

Aging Brain, 2022
Age-related sensory decline impacts cognitive performance and exposes individuals to a greater risk of cognitive decline. Integration across the senses also changes with age, yet the link between multisensory perception and cognitive ageing is poorly ...

The temporal precision of audiovisual integration is associated with longitudinal fall incidents but not sensorimotor fall risk in older adults

Scientific Reports, 2023
Sustained multisensory integration over long inter-stimulus time delays is typically found in older adults, particularly those with a history of falls.

Susceptibility to the sound-induced flash illusion is associated with gait speed in a large sample of middle-aged and older adults

Experimental Gerontology, 2023
Background: Multisensory integration is the ability to appropriately merge information from different senses for the purpose of perceiving and acting in the environment. During walking, information from multiple senses must be integrated appropriately to

Investigation of the role of sleep and physical activity for chronic disease prevalence and incidence in older Irish adults

BMC Public Health, 2022
Background Chronic diseases are the leading cause of death worldwide. Many of these diseases have modifiable risk factors, including physical activity and sleep, and may be preventable.

Relationship between hippocampal subfield volumes and cognitive decline in healthy subjects

Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2023
We examined the relationship between hippocampal subfield volumes and cognitive decline over a 4-year period in a healthy older adult population with the goal of identifying subjects at risk of progressive cognitive impairment which could potentially ...

Longitudinal grip strength is associated with susceptibility to the Sound Induced Flash Illusion in older adults

Aging Brain, 2023
The precision of temporal multisensory integration is associated with specific aspects of physical functioning in ageing, including gait speed and incidents of falling. However, it is unknown if such an association exists between multisensory integration

The development of polypharmacy. A longitudinal study [PDF]

Family Practice, 2000
To date, only a few studies have been carried out on the development and progress of polypharmacy in relation to morbidity in general practices in The Netherlands.The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between an increase in long-term drug use and the incidence and severity of some chronic diseases, particularly in the elderly.Data ...
