Determinants of Serum-Induced SIRT1 Expression in Older Men: The CHAMP Study
David G. Le Couteur,Vicky L. Benson,Aisling C. McMahon,Fiona M. Blyth,David J. Handelsman,Markus J. Seibel,Marina L. Kennerson,Vasi Naganathan,Robert G. Cumming,Robert G. Cumming,Rafael de Cabo +10 more
TL;DR: Serum-induced SIRT1 expression did not correlate with age, diseases, medications, albumin, fasting glucose, or lipids, and post hoc analysis suggested that there might be a paradoxical association between low serum- induced Sirt1 expression and robustness.
Journal ArticleDOI
Proinflammatory Diet Increases Circulating Inflammatory Biomarkers and Falls Risk in Community-Dwelling Older Men.
Mavil May Cervo,David Scott,David Scott,Markus J. Seibel,Robert G. Cumming,Vasi Naganathan,Vasi Naganathan,Fiona M. Blyth,David G. Le Couteur,David J. Handelsman,Rosilene V Ribeiro,Louise M. Waite,Nitin Shivappa,James R. Hébert,Vasant Hirani +14 more
TL;DR: Consumption of a proinflammatory diet was associated with increased concentrations of IL-6, IL-7, and TNF-α; increased falls risk; and lower ALMBMI in community-dwelling older men.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cross-sectional and longitudinal associations between the active vitamin D metabolite (1,25 dihydroxyvitamin D) and haemoglobin levels in older Australian men: the Concord Health and Ageing in Men Project.
Vasant Hirani,Robert G. Cumming,Fiona M. Blyth,Vasi Naganathan,David G. Le Couteur,Louise M. Waite,David J. Handelsman,Markus J. Seibel +7 more
TL;DR: Serum 1,25D, but not 25D, concentrations are independently associated with haemoglobin levels in older men in both cross-sectional and longitudinal analyses, raising the question whether vitamin D metabolites may influence anaemia states, mediated through different biological pathways, or represent a time-dependent biomarker of chronic ill health.
Journal ArticleDOI
Preventing falls in the elderly at home: a community-based program.
TL;DR: The effectiveness of the "Make-It-Safe" program may have been overestimated in Thompson's report, and the strategy of including other participants in place of those unavailable for follow-up has led to a larger estimate of falls that were prevented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Motivation of Community Health Volunteers in rural Uganda: the interconnectedness of knowledge, relationship and action
TL;DR: Whether full-time professional CHWs can potentially work with volunteers in the community to widen their reach and scope and if so what motivators might be of key importance to the CHVs remaining active in the field are understood.
