Alterations in calcium, vitamin d, and parathyroid hormone physiology in normal men with aging: Relationship to the development of senile osteopenia
Eric S. Orwoll,Diane E. Meier +1 more
TL;DR: Results indicate that a decline in renal function and alterations in vitamin D metabolism occur with aging in normal men, and these changes contribute to, if not cause, the associated decline in skeletal mineral content in aging men.
Journal ArticleDOI
Barriers to Completion of Health Care Proxies An Examination of Ethnic Differences
TL;DR: Differences in health care proxy completion rates across white, African American, and Hispanic elderly individuals in this New York City population seem to be related to potentially reversible barriers such as lack of knowledge and the perceived irrelevance of advance directives in the setting of involved family.
Journal ArticleDOI
Radial and Vertebral Bone Density in White and Black Women: Evidence for Racial Differences in Premenopausal Bone Homeostasis
Marjorie M. Luckey,Diane E. Meier,John Mandeli,Maria DaCosta,Michael L. Hubbard,Stanley J. Goldsmith +5 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that attainment of higher peak bone mass and delayed onset of bone loss contribute to the lower incidence of osteoporotic fractures in black women.
Journal ArticleDOI
Palliative Care Consultations: How Do They Impact the Care of Hospitalized Patients?
Paolo L Manfredi,R. Sean Morrison,Jane Morris,Suzanne Goldhirsch,John M. Carter,Diane E. Meier +5 more
TL;DR: The number of recommendations and the high implementation rate suggest a strong need for palliative care services within acute care hospitals.
Journal ArticleDOI
Marked disparity between trabecular and cortical bone loss with age in healthy men. Measurement by vertebral computed tomography and radial photon absorptiometry.
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors measured radial (proximal and distal) and vertebral bone mineral content in 62 men aged 30 to 92 years, and found that radial cortical bone mineral contents fall much less rapidly than vertebral trabecular content with age and also associated with surface area.
