Journal ArticleDOI
Multidimensional Geriatric Prognostic Index, Based on a Geriatric Assessment, for Long-Term Survival in Older Adults in Korea.
Hee-Won Jung,Jin Won Kim,Ji Won Han,Kayoung Kim,Jee Hyun Kim,Kwang-Il Kim,Cheol Ho Kim,Ki Woong Kim,Ki Woong Kim,Ki Woong Kim +9 more
TL;DR: Using common components of a geriatric assessment, the GPI can stratify the risk of 3- and 5-year mortality in Korean elderly people both in the community and hospital.
Journal ArticleDOI
Simple Method of Screening for Frailty in Older Adults Using a Chronometer and Tape Measure in Clinic.
Hee-Won Jung,Min Gu Kang,Jung Yeon Choi,Sol Ji Yoon,Sun Wook Kim,Kwang-Il Kim,Kwang-Il Kim,Cheol Ho Kim,Cheol Ho Kim +8 more
TL;DR: Assessment of whether frailty can be screened for using automatically measured usual gait speed (UGS) and mid‐arm circumference (MAC) in the outpatient clinic.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lower Serum n-3 Fatty Acid Level in Older Adults with Sarcopenia.
Il-Young Jang,Hee-Won Jung,Jin Hoon Park,Jeoung Hee Kim,Seungjoo Lee,Eunju Lee,Jin Young Lee,So Jeong Park,Da Ae Kim,Su Jung Kim,Hyun Ju Yoo,Beom-Jun Kim +11 more
TL;DR: Findings suggest a possible protective effect of n-3 FA on human muscle homeostasis and further well-designed large-scale longitudinal studies are necessary to understand the definite role of circulating n- 3 FA level in sarcopenia risk assessment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Visualizing Domains of Comprehensive Geriatric Assessments to Grasp Frailty Spectrum in Older Adults with a Radar Chart
TL;DR: The frailty index, based on deficits in parameters from comprehensive geriatric assessments (CGAs), is accepted as one of the most well-validated measures to predict mortality in older adults, however, there are caveats in utilizing CGAs and the frailty Index in clinical practice for older adults.
Journal ArticleDOI
Short Physical Performance Battery as a Crosswalk Between Frailty Phenotype and Deficit Accumulation Frailty Index.
Hee-Won Jung,Ji Yeon Baek,Il-Young Jang,Jack M. Guralnik,Kenneth Rockwood,Eunju Lee,Dae Hyun Kim +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, a crosswalk linking the Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB) score and frailty was created for a composite outcome of mortality or long-term institutionalization.
