Meanings of geriatric outpatients in inglés

Background & aims: Few data is available on the nutritional status of geriatric outpatients.

In this study we looked at associations between natriuretic peptide plasma levels and echocardiographic abnormalities in geriatric outpatients.

The findings suggest that informants' data are a primary source of information for the detection of dementia in geriatric outpatients.

This study examined the associations between clinical determinants of the Comprehensive Geriatric Assessment (CGA) domains with RMR among geriatric outpatients.

Conclusion: Malnutrition is highly prevalent among geriatric outpatients and is independently associated with depressive symptoms, poor functional status, and life style factors.

Conclusions: In geriatric outpatients, erythrocyte sedimentation rate was associated with all three measures of sarcopenia, underpinning the potential role of inflammation in sarcopenia.

We aimed to associate three markers of inflammation, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, albumin and white blood cell count, with measures of sarcopenia in geriatric outpatients.

Geriatric outpatients at the VU university medical centre in Amsterdam were recruited based on referral between January 1st 2014 and the 31st of December 2015.
