American Journal of Clinical NutritionBetween- and within-subject variation in nutrient intake from infancy to old age: estimating the number of days required to rank dietary intakes with desired precision
530 Citations1989Michael Nelson, A. Black +2 more
Data from six studies were analyzed to estimate the number of recording days necessary for energy, 28 nutrients, and the ratio of polyunsaturated to saturated fatty acids.
Clinical Orthopaedics and Related ResearchEpidemiology of Fractures of the Proximal Femur in Rochester, Minnesota
451 Citations1980John C. Gallagher, L. Joseph Melton +2 more
The results show a doubling of the fracture rate in each decade of life after age 50 years, and in both men and women, the hip fracture is highest in the United States population examined in this study.
American Journal of Public HealthRace and sex differences in hip fracture incidence.
402 Citations1984Mary E. Farmer, Lon R. White +2 more
Analysis based on an independent data source of non-federal hospital discharges in Washington, DC confirmed that White women were at twice the risk for hip fracture compared with Black women and at 2.7 times the risk compared to White men.
American Journal of Clinical NutritionHuman protein requirements: assessment of the adequacy of the current Recommended Dietary Allowance for dietary protein in elderly men and women
172 Citations1982Mark Gersovitz, Kathleen J. Motil +3 more
The current protein Recommended Dietary Allowance for older men and women is not adequate for a majority of male and female subjects age 70 yr and above, where energy intake approximates requirement.

137 Citations1975Doris Howes Calloway
Energy intake appears to have a much greater effect on N balance than does protein intake in the marginally adequate ranges of intake.

American Journal of Clinical NutritionHuman protein requirements: nitrogen balance response to graded levels of egg protein in elderly men and women
106 Citations1978Ricardo Uauy, N. S. Scrimshaw +1 more
It is concluded that a typical U.S. diet providing about 12 to 14% protein calories should be adequate for the elderly, and the factorial method fails to predict a suitable protein allowance.
American Journal of Clinical NutritionComparative nitrogen balance study between young and aged adults using three levels of protein intake from a combination wheat-soy-milk mixture
104 Citations1978A H R Cheng, Alvaro Gómez +4 more
It is concluded that the protein requirement and the efficiency of protein use are not affected by the aging process and protein digestibility was not impaired in the aged.

42 Citations1989T. Kawashima
The age specific incidence in Niigata Prefecture showed an exponential increase with increasing age like in Sweden or in the USA, but the age-adjusted incidence was one-fourth or one-fifth of that in those countries.

One of the important factors of senile fractures must be low BMD, which is influenced by calcium intake and daily activities in both the past and present.
