Journal ArticleDOI
Does bone mineral density and knowledge influence health-related behaviors of elderly men at risk for osteoporosis?
Avni Patel,Penelope S. Coates,Joel B. Nelson,Donald L. Trump,Neil M. Resnick,Susan L. Greenspan +5 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that men with low bone mass and hypogonadism were more likely to start using bisphosphonates, calcium supplements, and vitamin D supplements after having a bone density test, but they were not morelikely to make significant health-related lifestyle changes after obtaining the results of their bone mass.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dopaminergic regulation of gonadotropin and thyrotropin hormone secretion is altered with age.
TL;DR: Data indicate that dopaminergic modulation of gonadotropins and TSH is altered with age, and increases in plasma GH and decreases in plasma PRL were of similar magnitude in each group.
Journal ArticleDOI
Application of Cut‐Points for Low Muscle Strength and Lean Mass in Mobility‐Limited Older Adults
Gregory J. Grosicki,Gregory J. Grosicki,Thomas G. Travison,Hao Zhu,Jay Magaziner,Ellen F. Binder,Marco Pahor,Rosaly Correa-de-Araujo,Peggy M. Cawthon,Peggy M. Cawthon,Shalender Bhasin,Denise Orwig,Susan L. Greenspan,Todd M. Manini,Joseph M. Massaro,Adam J. Santanasto,Sheena Patel,Roger A. Fielding +17 more
TL;DR: The Sarcopenia Definitions and Outcomes Consortium (SDOC) is a collaborative initiative seeking to develop and evaluate cut‐points for low muscle strength and lean mass that predict an increased risk for slowness among older adults.
Journal ArticleDOI
Standing balance and strength measurements in older adults living in residential care communities.
Bader A. Alqahtani,Mary Ann Ferchak,Theodore J. Huppert,Ervin Sejdic,Subashan Perera,Susan L. Greenspan,Patrick J. Sparto +6 more
TL;DR: The portable instruments provide inexpensive ways for measuring balance and strength in the understudied RCC population, but additional studies are needed to examine their relationship with functional outcomes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Classification of osteoporosis and osteopenia in men is dependent on site-specific analysis.
S. Aubrey Stoch,Erin Wysong,Chris Connolly,Robert A. Parker,Susan L. Greenspan,Susan L. Greenspan +5 more
TL;DR: Depending on the number and selection of sites there is considerable variability in the classification and misclassification of osteoporosis and osteopenia in men.
