Journal ArticleDOI
Growth and Development during Early Manhood as Determinants of Prostate Size in Later Life
TL;DR: This study suggests that early and long-term androgen exposure may have long-acting effects on mature prostate zonal volumes, whereas relationships with current blood androgens and related hormones levels were mostly a result of confounding by age.
Journal ArticleDOI
The impact of frailty on coagulation and responses to warfarin in acute older hospitalised patients with atrial fibrillation: a pilot study.
Tu Ngoc Nguyen,Tu Ngoc Nguyen,Marie-Christine Morel-Kopp,Dominic Pepperell,Robert G. Cumming,Sarah N. Hilmer,Chris Ward +6 more
TL;DR: In this cohort of acute hospitalised patients with AF, the observed decreased fibrin generation in the frail may reflect decreased acute phase response as suggested with the lower plasma fibr inogen in that group.
Journal ArticleDOI
Intrusive pain and worry about health in older men: the CHAMP study.
Fiona M. Blyth,Fiona M. Blyth,Robert G. Cumming,Michael K. Nicholas,Helen Creasey,David J. Handelsman,D. G. Le Couteur,Vasi Naganathan,Philip N. Sambrook,Markus J. Seibel,Louise M. Waite +10 more

TL;DR: In this paper, a simple clinical prediction tool based on pre-admission ability to complete the two tasks, co-morbidity on admission, and pre-discharge measurement of: leaning while standing (Maximal Balance Range test), low-contrast visual acuity, and knee extension strength, had good discrimination (area under the receiver operating characteristic curve [AUC] = 0.77, 95% CI 0.72 to 0.81, bootstrap adjusted AUC=0.77) and was well calibrated.
Journal ArticleDOI
