Journal ArticleDOI
Chewing function, general health and the dentition of older Australian men: The Concord Health and Ageing in Men Project.
F. A. C. Wright,Garry G. Law,K. L. Milledge,K. L. Milledge,Steven K.-Y. Chu,Benjumin Hsu,Benjumin Hsu,Eduardo Valdez,Vasi Naganathan,Vasant Hirani,Fiona M. Blyth,David G. LeCouteur,Louise M. Waite,David J. Handelsman,Markus J. Seibel,Robert G. Cumming,Robert G. Cumming +16 more
TL;DR: Falling rates of edentulism may lead to improved chewing and eating function in older men, and maintaining 20 or more natural teeth, and preventing active coronal and root caries should enhance chewing function and promote self-reported health and oral health.
Journal ArticleDOI
Vitamin D status among older community dwelling men living in a sunny country and associations with lifestyle factors: The concord health and ageing in men project, Sydney, Australia
Vasant Hirani,Robert G. Cumming,Fiona M. Blyth,Vasi Naganathan,D. G. Le Couteur,David J. Handelsman,Louise M. Waite,Markus J. Seibel +7 more
TL;DR: Inadequate vitamin D status is highly prevalent among Australian older men and is associated with specific lifestyle factors, emphasizing the need to screen and monitor 25(OH)D levels in this population group, despite living in a sunny country such as Australia.
Journal ArticleDOI
Branched Chain Amino Acids, Cardiometabolic Risk Factors and Outcomes in Older Men: The Concord Health and Ageing in Men Project.
David G. Le Couteur,David G. Le Couteur,Rosilene V Ribeiro,Alistair M. Senior,Benjumin Hsu,Vasant Hirani,Fiona M. Blyth,Fiona M. Blyth,Louise M. Waite,Stephen J. Simpson,Vasikaran Naganathan,Robert G. Cumming,David J. Handelsman +12 more
TL;DR: Overall, amino acids that were lowest in frail subjects (BCAAs, α-aminobutyric acid (AABA), histidine, lysine, methionine, threonine, tyrosine) were inversely associated with mortality and MACE.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cognitive, extrapyramidal, and magnetic resonance imaging predictors of functional impairment in nondemented older community dwellers: the Sydney Older Person Study.
Hayley P. Bennett,Olivier Piguet,David A. Grayson,H. Creasey,Louise M. Waite,Tanya Lye,Alastair Corbett,Michael Hayes,G. Anthony Broe,Glenda M. Halliday +9 more
TL;DR: The objective is to identify the clinical correlates of functional incapacity in the community living “old‐old” by studying the effects of smoking, alcohol, and physical activity on the quality of life in the older community.
Journal ArticleDOI
Progressive Temporal Change in Serum SHBG, But Not in Serum Testosterone or Estradiol, Is Associated With Bone Loss and Incident Fractures in Older Men: The Concord Health and Ageing in Men Project
Benjumin Hsu,Markus J. Seibel,Robert G. Cumming,Fiona M. Blyth,Vasi Naganathan,Kerrin Bleicher,David G. Le Couteur,Louise M. Waite,David J. Handelsman +8 more
TL;DR: The data indicate that a progressive increase in circulating SHBG over time predicts bone loss and fracture risk in older men and changes in bone mineral density and bone health during male ageing.
