J Gerontol A Biol Sci Med Sci 67:1300-6. 2012..We examined women in their 80s and 90s and evaluated the hypothesis that abnormalities in the dynamic response of glucose and insulin to a glucose load are associated with frailty status...
Hyperglycemia and incidence of frailty and lower extremity mobility limitations in older womenRita R Kalyani
Divisions of Endocrinology, Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, Maryland 21287, USA
