Lower Extremity Strength and Power Are Associated With 400-Meter Walk Time in Older Adults: The InCHIANTI Study

TL;DR: Lower extremity muscle strength and power are both important predictors of the 400-meter walk time, although curvilinear relationships existed, the data do not indicate a clear threshold for either strength or power above which the performance in the400- meter walk test plateaus.
Journal ArticleDOI

Decline in Functional Performance Predicts Later Increased Mobility Loss and Mortality in Peripheral Arterial Disease

TL;DR: People with PAD with declining functional performance are at increased risk for later mobility loss and mortality, and greater declines in fastest-paced 4-m walking velocity were associated with higher mobility loss.
Journal ArticleDOI

Relationship of an advanced glycation end product, plasma carboxymethyl-lysine, with slow walking speed in older adults: the InCHIANTI study.

TL;DR: In older community-dwelling adults, elevated plasma CML is independently associated with slow walking speed, and in older community the relationship between a plasma AGE, carboxymethyl-lysine (CML), and slowwalking speed in older adults is characterized.
Journal ArticleDOI

The ankle brachial index independently predicts walking velocity and walking endurance in peripheral arterial disease.

TL;DR: The relationships between lower extremity peripheral arterial disease (PAD), PAD severity, and PAD‐related symptoms with walking velocity and endurance among men and women aged 55 and older are reported.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of the diabetes linked TCF7L2 polymorphism in a representative older population

TL;DR: The TCF7L2 rs7903146 polymorphism is associated with lower insulin levels, smaller waist circumference, and lower risk lipid profiles in the general elderly population, and may have implications for developing treatment approaches tailored by genotype.
