Intramyocellular Lipid and Impaired Myofiber Contraction in Normal Weight and Obese Older Adults
Conclusions. These data indicate that greater intramyocellular lipids are associated with slower myofiber contraction, force, and power development in obese older adults. (Source: Journals of Gerontology Series A: Biological Sciences and Medical Sciences)

Parkinsonism in Older Adults and Its Association With Adverse Health Outcomes and Neuropathology
Conclusions. Parkinsonism is common in older adults and is associated with an increased risk of adverse health outcomes and postmortem indices of brain pathology. Its association with age suggests that it will increase in our aging population. (Source: Journals of Gerontology Series A: Biological Sciences and Medical Sciences)

Frailty Index and Incident Mortality, Hospitalization, and Institutionalization in Alzheimers Disease: Data From the ICTUS Study
Conclusions. The FI is a robust predictor of adverse outcomes even after the stage of the underlying dementia is considered. Future work should evaluate the clinical implementation of the FI in the assessment of demented individuals in order to improve the personalization of care.

Gout in Older Adults: The Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities Study
Conclusions: These findings suggest that traditional and genetic risk factors in middle age may be useful for identifying those at risk of gout in older age. (Source: Journals of Gerontology Series A: Biological Sciences and Medical Sciences)

Prevalence and Factors Associated With Sarcopenia in Suburb-dwelling Older Chinese Using the Asian Working Group for Sarcopenia Definition
Conclusions. The Asian Working Group for Sarcopenia criterion is useful for defining sarcopenia, and our data suggest that the prevalence of sarcopenia in the general elderly suburb-dwelling Chinese population is high. Moreover, we find that high body mass index is inversely associated with the likelihood of being sarcopenic and that several others factors such as diabetes, peptic ulcer, and drinking habits increase the prevalence of sarcopenia.

Analysis and Interpretation of Accelerometry Data in Older Adults: The LIFE Study
Conclusions. The findings of this study have important implications for the use and interpretations of accelerometry data and in the design/delivery of physical activity interventions with older adults. (Source: Journals of Gerontology Series A: Biological Sciences and Medical Sciences)

Exercise at Different Ages and Appendicular Lean Mass and Strength in Later Life: Results From the Berlin Aging Study II
Conclusions. The results of the current study underscore the importance of health programs to promote physical activity with a focus on young adults, a group known to be affected from environmentally associated decline of physical activity, and to promote the continuation of physical exercise from early adulthood into later life in general.

Higher Leptin and Adiponectin Concentrations Predict Poorer Performance-based Physical Functioning in Midlife Women: the Michigan Study of Womens Health Across the Nation
Conclusion. In this population of middle-aged women, higher baseline leptin concentrations predicted poorer mobility-based functioning, whereas higher adiponectin concentrations predicted reduced quadriceps strength. These findings suggest that the relationship between the adipokines and physical functioning performance is independent of other known correlates of poor functioning.

The Association Between Midlife Physical Activity and Depressive Symptoms in Late Life: Age Gene/Environment Susceptibility--Reykjavik Study
Conclusion. Our study shows that midlife PA is associated with lower depressive symptoms 25 years later. Participating in regular PA in midlife may improve mental health in late life. (Source: Journals of Gerontology Series A: Biological Sciences and Medical Sciences)
