Understanding the key pathogenic mechanisms that combine the aging process and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease can help rethink therapeutic concepts in patients with the described comorbidity and be considered the basis of new directions for preventive measures.The purpose of the review is to update data from open access scientific sources on the pathogenetic mechanisms and clinical relationships of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, sarcopenia, and frailty.Methods. Foreign and domestic scientific publications on this topic over the past 15 years were analyzed using electronic libraries PubMed/MedLine, Elsevier, elibrary.Conclusion. An extensive examination of current scientific data was carried out to determine the pathogenetic connections between chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and the aging process, along with the prominent geriatric conditions of sarcopenia and frailty. A significant amount of information has been accumulated indicating deterioration in the clinical manifestations and prognosis of older patients with a combination of the described pathologies; therefore, the relevance of further study of these comorbidities remains. The cause-and-effect relationship of these clinical manifestations remains not entirely clear: chronic obstructive pulmonary disease leads to the development of sarcopenia and frailty, or these geriatric syndromes only accompany chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, as a disease that manifests itself most frequently in advanced age. There is significant interest in developing therapeutic strategies to improve the clinical outcomes of older patients with a combination of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, frailty and sarcopenia.","PeriodicalId":256357,"journal":{"name":"Russian Journal of Geriatric Medicine","volume":"74 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140724805","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For such patients a comprehensive geriatric assessment (CGA) is carried out to clarify the severity of frailty and the individual characteristics of the geriatric status [1]. The results of this assessment are used to stratify the risk in the postoperative period and to determine targeted interventions for the correction of geriatric syndromes [2]. The introduction of new geriatric technologies during hip and knee replacement in weakened older patients needs scientific justification and confirmation of effectiveness.Objective: to test the method of complex geriatric management of older and oldest-old patients before and after surgical interventions in the provision of planned inpatient orthopedic care (knee and hip arthroplasty).Materials and methods: the study involved two groups of older and oldest-old patients with frailty: 50 patients, average age 69.2 ± 6.0 years [60 to 87 years] with gonarthrosis and 50 patients, average age 67.6 ± 5.5 years [60 to 81 years] with coxarthrosis. At the prehospital stage, patients were diagnosed with frailty, in accordance with the clinical recommendations of «Senile asthenia» [3]. Upon admission to surgical treatment, a CGA was performed, including indicators of basic (Barthel Activities of daily living Index, Barthel scale [4]) and instrumental activity (The Instrumental Activities of Daily Living Scale, IADL scale [5]), nutrition assessment (Mini Nutritional assessment, MNA scale [6]), cognitive functions (The Montreal Cognitive Assessment, MOCA test [7]), depression (Geriatric Depression Scale, GDS-15 scale [8]), as well as quality of life (A Visual Analogue Scale, EQ-VAS scale [9]), multimorbidity and polypragmasia. An individual plan of perioperative management was drawn up.Results. A comparative analysis demonstrated statistically significant improvements in functional status (based on the Barthel scale), cognitive status (based on the MOCA test), nutritional status (based on the MNA scale) and quality of life (based on the EQ-VAS scale) 12 months after surgical intervention in groups of patients after knee and hip replacement. In the group of patients after hip replacement, there was also an improvement in the quality of life of patients 12 months after surgery. The assessment and dynamics of indicators in functional and cognitive status within the control group were not carried out, which makes it difficult to compare the results. However, there was a reduction in hospital stay for patients using geriatric approaches compared with previously used surgical care in the control group.Conclusion: the management of patients with frailty in the perioperative period with the use of CGA allows for preventive measures aimed at maintaining functional, psycho-emotional status.

Life expectancy is increasing around the globe. However, chronological age is not the best indicator of health. For a more accurate assessment of body condition throughout life, in general, and aging, in particular, and identify potential points of geroprotective intervention, a specialized tool is needed. A tool that could prove beneficial is a biological age calculator, utilizing a range of biomarkers to analyze the degree of functional preservation of the body. Many existing biological age calculators are limited by a small number of parameters to analyze and sensitivity to use in a specific population.Aim. Large-scale studies to create a mathematical model for calculating biological age based on the Russian population have not previously been carried out. In 2022, the RUSS-AGE study was launched to create biochemical, cognitive and microbiotic calculators of biological age and determine possible points of geroprotective interventions.Materials and methods. The study intends to enroll at least 3,500 participants and analyze more than a hundred biomarkers using laboratory tests, questionnaires, neurocognitive and functional testing, and collection of anthropometric and physical indicators.Results. Currently, the recruitment of participants is supported by a government grant under the Priority 2030 program. By November 2023, 510 participants had been enrolled in the study.Conclusion.
