Lung cancer screening works. 🔘Low Dose CT caught 97% of cancers—most in early stages. 🔘77% had surgery. 1-year false-positive rate? Just 4.8%. This isn’t just data—it’s time saved. Lives extended. #LungCancer #Oncology #EarlyDetection #PublicHealth @TheLancetOncol @OncoAlert…

Study found frailty accelerates up to 9 years before dementia onset and is a key early marker. Frailty was linked to higher dementia risk even when measured years before dementia onset and may represent a target for prevention efforts. ja.ma/4hLFake
A nice article . Yes controlling. Hypertension is important in all ages but in frail older people we should show some caution in not overdoing it

Yup, we are seeing between 1 in 4 & 1 in 7 older patients choosing a non operative route when BRAN approach used in #CGA based #POPS perioperative services across the UK @GeriSoc @CPOC_News (article about this approach/ impact on SDM/outcomes just accepted -will share soon!)
Interesting stats from @totallytigers at our Future Surgery conference #FS24 - 15% of patients don't proceed with surgery proposed. Shows importance of a robust shared decision making process.
Thanks again to all of you for the amazing experience! @EuGMSSociety

Resistance training can be complicated. But the truth is, many approaches “work”: “All combinations of load, sets, and weekly frequency improved strength, muscle mass, and physical function compared to the non-exercising control group”. The best program is the one you can…
💡Why is geriatric assessment (GA) important in cancer care? GA offers a comprehensive evaluation of an older adult's health, helping to tailor interventions that improve treatment completion, QOL, and advance care planning. acsjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.33… @OncoAlert #GeriOnc #ESMO24

How much exercise is needed to increase life expectancy? Turns out a little goes a long way. This new study in over 71,000 people (aged 60+) found: ➡️Higher volumes and intensities of exercise = greater benefits (up to 3.5 to 4.6 extra years for women and men, respectively).…
Nothing recent about high protein 'causing' kidney problems. It's >50yr old hypothesis... We and others have shown this thesis is incorrect using RCT data and not observational data, which is what this study is. Still, on message with the fact the original thesis was incorrect.…
