A prospective study was conducted from January 30, 2018, to July 16, 2018, at the Emergency Department of Chaumont Hospital. Patients aged over 65 were included, while those under 65, in palliative care, or in a life-threatening emergency were excluded. The SEGAm score was calculated for each included patient, and their outcomes were assessed at the end of the emergency department visit and one year later. A total of 278 subjects were included. Vital status at one year was known for all subjects, with no loss to follow-up or censoring. At one year, 56 patients out of 278 (20.1%, 95% CI 15.6% to 25.3%) had died, with less than half of these deaths (n = 25) occurring after readmission to the emergency department or during the emergency visit. The average age was 82 ± 8.2 years, with 158 women and 120 men. Regarding living arrangements, 130 (46.8%) lived at home without caregivers, 100 (36%) lived at home with caregivers, and 48 (17.3%) lived in nursing homes. The average Charlson Comorbidity Index was 5.49 ± 1.99, with an average number of medications of 7.52. The primary methods of referral were as follows: C15 for 144 patients (51.8%), general practitioner for 59 patients (21.2%), spontaneous consultation for 58 patients (20.9%), and family referral for 8 patients (2.9%). The main reasons for admission were falls for 55 patients (19.8%), dyspnea for 33 patients (11.9%), and other reasons for 60 patients (21.6%). Post-emergency department disposition included hospitalization for 167 patients (60.1%) and discharge for 111 patients (39.9%), with no deaths occurring during this period. The SEGAm frailty score (grid A) had an average completion time of 8.18 min ± 3.64. A score of ≤ 8 was found for 85 patients (30.6%), a score between 9 and 11 for 51 patients (18.3%), and a score ≥ 12 for 142 patients (51.1%). In this geriatric population, the risk of death at 12 months was estimated at 31% (95% CI 23.5% to 39.3%) for subjects with a SEGA score exceeding 12, compared to approximately 10% for those with lower SEGA scores. The risk of death or readmission was 52.8% (95% CI 44.3% to 61.2%) for subjects with a SEGA score exceeding 12, compared to 20% to 30% for those with lower SEGA scores. The SEGA score provides valuable prognostic information that is not fully captured by the Charlson score or reason for hospitalization.</p>","PeriodicalId":51244,"journal":{"name":"Geriatrie et Psychologie Neuropsychiatrie De Vieillissement","volume":"0 0","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2024-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141307356","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The efficiency of P-gp may be affected by the aging process and the development of neurodegenerative diseases.

Understanding P-gp activity in vivo is essential when considering the physiological, pathophysiological, and pharmacokinetic perspectives, as these aspects seem to be interconnected to some extent.

Our objectives were to determine whether: i) GCC (ganglion cell complex) and RNFL (retinal nerve fibre layer) thickness were associated with different stages of AD (i.e., no AD, prodromal AD, dementia-stage AD), and ii) GCC and RNFL thickness predicted disease progression in older non-demented patients with subjective memory complaints followed for four years. Ninety-one French older community-dwellers with memory complaint and without open-angle glaucoma or age-related macular degeneration (mean, 71.60 ± 4,73 years; 44% women) from the GAIT study underwent examination with HD-OCT, measuring the thickness of the macula, the macular GCC and the RNFL. They also had a complete cognitive diagnosis (i.e., cognitively healthy, prodromal AD, or dementia AD), and a cognitive follow-up 4 years later looking for a possible conversion. Age, sex, body mass index (BMI), number of comorbidities, and Instrumental activities of daily living (IADL) score were considered as potential confounders. At baseline, 37 (40.7%) patients were diagnosed as cognitively healthy, 47 (51.6%) as MCI, and 7 (7.7%) as AD. Mean GCC thickness was higher in cognitively healthy patients than in MCI patients (79.23 vs. 76.27 μm, p = 0.023), particularly in the inferior and nasal fields (p = 0.023 and p = 0.005, respectively).
