PMID: 23795309
Cardiovasc Endocrinol. 2012 Sep 01;1(3):49-58. doi: 10.1097/XCE.0b013e32835a2159.

OBJECTIVES: Long-term systemic blockade of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) with either an angiotensin (Ang) II type 1 receptor antagonist or an angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor attenuates age-related cardiac remodeling and oxidative damage, and improves myocardial relaxation. However, the role of...

Intraindividual variability among cognitive domains may predict dementia independently of interindividual differences in cognition. A multidomain cognitive battery was administered to 2305 older adult women (mean age 74 years) enrolled in an ancillary study of the Women's Health Initiative....

Exercise intolerance.

Cardiology clinics

Kitzman DW, Groban L.
PMID: 21803233
Cardiol Clin. 2011 Aug;29(3):461-77. doi: 10.1016/j.ccl.2011.06.002.

Exercise intolerance is the primary symptom of chronic diastolic heart failure. It is part of the definition of heart failure and is intimately linked to its pathophysiology. Further, exercise intolerance affects the diagnosis and prognosis of heart failure. In...

Patient-Reported Outcome Measures (PROM) as A Preoperative Assessment Tool.

Journal of anesthesia and perioperative medicine

Kim S, Duncan PW, Groban L, Segal H, Abbott RM, Williamson JD.
PMID: 29333531
J Anesth Perioper Med. 2017 Nov 28;4(6):274-281. Epub 2017 Nov 02.

AIM OF REVIEW: Patient-reported outcomes (PRO) on functional, social, and behavioral factors might be important preoperative predictors of postoperative outcomes. We conducted a literature review to explore associations of preoperative depression, socioeconomic status, social support, functional status/frailty, cognitive status,...

BACKGROUND: To examine the effects of daily weighted vest use during a dietary weight loss intervention, on (a) hip and spine bone mineral density (aBMD), and (b) biomarkers of bone turnover, in older adults with obesity.METHODS: 37 older (70.1...

Pericytes: multitasking cells in the regeneration of injured, diseased, and aged skeletal muscle.

Frontiers in aging neuroscience

Birbrair A, Zhang T, Wang ZM, Messi ML, Mintz A, Delbono O.
PMID: 25278877
Front Aging Neurosci. 2014 Sep 18;6:245. doi: 10.3389/fnagi.2014.00245. eCollection 2014.

Pericytes are perivascular cells that envelop and make intimate connections with adjacent capillary endothelial cells. Recent studies show that they may have a profound impact in skeletal muscle regeneration, innervation, vessel formation, fibrosis, fat accumulation, and ectopic bone formation...
