        Longitudinal Changes in Physical and Cognitive Functions among Participants with and without Rheumatoid Arthritis in Community-Dwelling Middle-Aged and Older Adults

        Mikako Yasuoka,Chikako Tange,Yukiko Nishita,Makiko Tomida,Ryota Watanabe,Hiroshi Shimokata,Rei Otsuka,Masayo Kojima 대한노인병학회 2023 Annals of geriatric medicine and research Vol.27 No.1

        Background: This study evaluated the chronological changes in physical and cognitive functions in middle-aged and older adults with and without rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Methods: This population-based case-control longitudinal study included individuals aged 40–79 years at baseline who agreed to participate. We identified 42 participants with RA and randomly selected 84 ageand sex-matched controls. Physical function was assessed according to gait speed, grip strength, and skeletal muscle mass. Cognitive function was assessed based on the information, similarities, picture completion, and digit symbol substitution test scores of the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale-Revised Short Form. The general linear mixed models comprised the fixed effects of the intercept, case, age, time in years since baseline, and case×time interaction, which were used to examine longitudinal changes in physical and cognitive functions. Results: Regardless of RA status, grip strength decreased and the picture completion score increased in the group aged <65 years, while skeletal muscle mass index and gait speed decreased in the group aged ≥65 years. The interaction of case×follow-up years for grip strength in the group aged ≥65 years was significant (p=0.03). The decline in grip strength in the control group (slope=-0.45) was greater than that in the RA group (slope=-0.19). Conclusion: Chronological changes in physical and cognitive functions were comparable between participants with and without RA; however, the decline in grip strength in the control group was greater among older adults with RA.

      • Effect of alendronate on muscle mass: Investigation in patients with osteoporosis

        Objectives: Many osteoporosis drugs reliably increase bone mass in the elderly; if these drugs also had a positive effect on muscle, their benefit would be even greater. We examined the effect of alendronate monotherapy on muscle mass in patients with osteoporosis. Methods: In this retrospective cohort, case-control study, patients from an osteoporosis database were divided into 2 groups: alendronate-treated patients (group A; n ¼ 199) and a control group receiving no drug treatment (group C; n ¼ 233). Appendicular skeletal muscle mass (ASM) and skeletal muscle mass index (SMI) measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry were assessed at approximately 1 year. The change in muscle mass was compared between the groups. Results: At baseline, group A included more women and had lower height, weight, bone mineral content, and muscle mass than group C. A comparison of changes after 1 yeardadjusted for age, sex, observation period, body mass index and initial valuesdrevealed that the muscle mass in group A showed increases by 0.137 kg/m2 in SMI, 514 g in ASM, and 319 g in lower limb muscle mass (LLM). Group C showed no changes in muscle mass. A significant difference in the amount of change in ASM and LLM was found between the groups after adjustment: 2.5 times and 4.4 times higher, respectively, in groups A and C. However, the difference in SMI disappeared after adjustment. Conclusions: This is the first study to show that alendronate may have a positive effect not only on bone, but on muscle as well.
