Journal ArticleDOI
Ankle-arm index as a marker of atherosclerosis in the Cardiovascular Health Study. Cardiovascular Heart Study (CHS) Collaborative Research Group.
Anne B. Newman,David S. Siscovick,Teri A. Manolio,Joseph F. Polak,Linda P. Fried,Nemat O. Borhani,Sidney K. Wolfson +6 more
TL;DR: There was an inverse dose-response relation of the AAI with CVD risk factors and subclinical and clinical CVD among older adults, and even those with modest, asymptomatic reductions in theAAI appear to be at increased risk of CVD.
Journal ArticleDOI
Morbidity and Mortality in Hypertensive Adults With a Low Ankle/Arm Blood Pressure Index
TL;DR: A low AAI appears to be an important predictor of morbidity and mortality among older adults with systolic hypertension.
Journal ArticleDOI
Correlates of daytime sleepiness in 4578 elderly persons: The cardiovascular health study
Coralyn Whitney,Paul L. Enright,Anne B. Newman,William H. Bonekat,Daniel J. Foley,Stuart F. Quan +5 more
TL;DR: Daytime sleepiness is common in the elderly, probably due to nocturnal disturbances such as frequent awakenings and snoring, but anatomic abnormalities such as evidence of previous strokes and brain atrophy were not associated with daytime sleepiness in these non-institutionalized elderly persons.
Journal ArticleDOI
Physical disability in older adults: A physiological approach
TL;DR: Re-grouping of tasks of daily life may provide a more refined physiologically-based outcome measure for use in evaluating causes of disability, and the ability to define risk factors for disability may be enhanced by choosing outcome measures with a demonstrated physiologic rationale.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prevalence and Correlates of Snoring and Observed Apneas in 5,201 Older Adults
Paul L. Enright,Anne B. Newman,Patricia W. Wahl,Teri A. Manolio,F. Edward Haponik,Peter J. R. Boyle +5 more
TL;DR: It was found that loud snoring, observed apneas, and daytime sleepiness are not associated cross-sectionally with hypertension or prevalent CVD in elderly persons.
