New age at NIH enrollment data shows that many studies fall far short of inclusion across the lifespan. This Perspective highlights relevance to general #internalmedicine & suggests ways to support inclusion of #olderadults in #research @barrett_bowling link.springer.com/article/10…

Older adults were less likely to be included in studies of emerging tech and methods (Telehealth 18%, data science 17%, technology 8%, machine learning 7%).

Sustaining blood pressure control may be an effective approach to slow multimorbidity progression and may reduce the population burden of #multimorbidity. #geriatrics onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…

I’m excited to share our findings that sustained BP control is associated with an 8 to 10-year delay in #multimorbidity progression among older adults treated for #hypertension. @MuntnerPaul @nih_nhlbi @DukeGeriatrics
Uncontrolled #bloodpressure (BP) is a significant risk factor for many chronic conditions New @AGSJournal article by @barrett_bowling & colleagues explores the relationship between BP control and the progression of #multimorbidity...check it out: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…

LTC workers commonly need 2nd paid jobs on top of unpaid caregiving roles. Have to keep these facts front & center in considering how to help nursing homes through COVID and beyond. Great work @chvanhoutven @nbcoe1 N DePasquale @DurhamADAPT @duke_pophealth @Duke_GIM

Great vascular surgery and #geriatrics collaboration shows that we should be asking patients about life space: how far do you go, how often do you go there, how much help do you need when you go?

A great collaboration with @Kristi_Reynolds, @KPSCalResearch and @DukeGeriatrics. #teamscience #mcc #multimorbidity
Some older adults with #CKD have conditions that complicate #CKD management and increase healthcare utilization. We developed and validated a #CKD discordance index to identify high risk older adults with #CKD @barrett_bowling @AgingInitiative academic.oup.com/biomedgeron…
