Marco Inzitari

TL;DR: In this pooled analysis of individual data from 9 selected cohorts, gait speed was associated with survival in older adults and predicted survival was as accurate as predicted based on age, sex, use of mobility aids, and self-reported function.

TL;DR: Gait speed at usual pace was found to be a consistent risk factor for disability, cognitive impairment, institutionalisation, falls, and/or mortality in older adults as mentioned in this paper, and the use of simple, safe, and easy to perform assessment tool, like gait speed, to evaluate vulnerability to adverse outcomes in community-dwelling older people is appealing.

TL;DR: The effectiveness, acceptability and costs of interactive TM as an alternative to, or in addition to, usual care compared with usual care alone are assessed to improve patient health outcomes, access to health care and reduce healthcare costs.

TL;DR: This is the first systematic review analysing the available evidence on the relationship between frailty and polypharmacy in older adults.

TL;DR: Vitamin D has been associated with many neurological functions and its deficiency with dysfunction and low serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D concentrations can potentially be reversed, which might contribute to the primo-secondary prevention of various neuropsychiatric disorders.
