Protein intake, physical activity and grip strength in European and North Ameri...
Mendonça, Nuno; Hengeveld, Linda M; Presse, Nancy; Canhão, Helena; Simonsick, Eleanor M; Kritchevsky, Stephen B; Farsijani, Samaneh; Gaudreau, PierretteINTRODUCTION: Higher dietary protein, alone or in combination with physical activity (PA), may slow the loss of age-related muscle strength in older adults. We investigated the longitudinal relationship between protein intake and grip strength, and the interaction between protein intake and PA, using four longitudinal ageing cohorts. METHODS: Individual participant data from 5584 older adults (52% women; median...
Low protein intake, physical activity, and physical function in European and No...
Mendonça, Nuno; Hengeveld, Linda M; Visser, Marjolein; Presse, Nancy; Canhão, Helena; Simonsick, Eleanor M; Kritchevsky, Stephen B; Newman, Anne B© The Author(s) 2021. Published by Oxford University Press on behalf of the American Society for Nutrition.; BACKGROUND: Dietary protein may slow the decline in muscle mass and function with aging, making it a sensible candidate to prevent or modulate disability progression. At present, studies providing reliable estimates of the association between protein intake and physical function, and its interaction with...

The association between 25-hydroxyvitamin d concentration and disability trajec...
Hakeem, Sarah; Mendonca, Nuno; Aspray, Terry; Kingston, Andrew; Ruiz-Martin, Carmen; Jagger, Carol; Mathers, John C.; Duncan, Rachel; Hill, Tom R.Background: Low vitamin D status is common in very old adults which may have adverse consequences for muscle function, a major predictor of disability. Aims: To explore the association between 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] concentrations and disability trajectories in very old adults and to determine whether there is an ‘adequate’ 25(OH)D concentration which might protect against a faster disability trajectory....
