Multidimensional prognostic index and the risk of fractures: an 8-year longitudinal cohort study in the Osteoarthritis Initiative
Veronese N, Smith L, Zigoura E, Barbagallo M, Dominguez L, Barone A, et al.
Arch Osteoporos . 2021 Dec; 17(1):5. PMID: 34905117
Purpose: Frailty may be associated with higher fracture risk, but limited research has been carried out using a multidimensional approach to frailty assessment and diagnosis. The present research aimed to...

Multidimensional Frailty Predicts Mortality Better than Physical Frailty in Community-Dwelling Older People: A Five-Year Longitudinal Cohort Study
Cella A, Veronese N, Pomata M, Leslie Quispe Guerrero K, Musacchio C, Senesi B, et al.
Int J Environ Res Public Health . 2021 Dec; 18(23). PMID: 34886161
Frailty is a common syndrome in older people that carries an increased risk of mortality. Two main models describe frailty, either as a loss of physical functions or as an...

Management of Prostate Cancer with Systemic Therapy: A Prostate Cancer Unit Perspective
Campodonico F, Ennas M, Zanardi S, Zigoura E, Piccardo A, Foppiani L, et al.
Curr Cancer Drug Targets . 2020 Oct; 21(2):107-116. PMID: 33087029
The scenario of systemic therapy for prostate cancer is rapidly evolving, with new drugs and new treatment options. To update the background knowledge of shared uro-oncologic practice, we reviewed current...

Development and validation of a robotic multifactorial fall-risk predictive model: A one-year prospective study in community-dwelling older adults
Cella A, De Luca A, Squeri V, Parodi S, Vallone F, Giorgeschi A, et al.
PLoS One . 2020 Jun; 15(6):e0234904. PMID: 32584912

The Multidimensional Prognostic Index Predicts Falls in Older People: An 8-Year Longitudinal Cohort Study of the Osteoarthritis Initiative
Veronese N, Siri G, Cella A, Maggi S, Zigoura E, Puntoni M, et al.
J Am Med Dir Assoc . 2019 Nov; 21(5):669-674. PMID: 31780413
Objectives: Falls are associated with several negative outcomes. Early identification of those who are at risk of falling is of importance in geriatrics, and comprehensive geriatric assessment (CGA) seems to...

Robotic balance assessment in community-dwelling older people with different grades of impairment of physical performance
Cella A, De Luca A, Squeri V, Parodi S, Puntoni M, Vallone F, et al.
Aging Clin Exp Res . 2019 Nov; 32(3):491-503. PMID: 31691151

Effects of oral amino acid supplementation on Multidimensional Prognostic Index in hospitalized older patients: a multicenter randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled pilot study
Volpato S, Custureri R, Puntoni M, Bianchi L, Daragjati J, Garaboldi S, et al.
Clin Interv Aging . 2018 May; 13:633-640. PMID: 29713147
Background: It is not known whether amino acid supplementations may influence health status in hospitalized older acutely ill patients. Aim: The aim of this study was to determine whether nutritional...
