Summary: The study aimed to assess the risk of heart failure in elderly treated hypertensive patients with different types of hypertension. The results showed that patients with uncontrolled hypertension, nonresistant hypertension, and resistant hypertension had a significantly higher risk of developing heart failure compared to those with controlled hypertension.

Summary: Old age and spinal surgery are significant risk factors for postoperative hyponatremia, especially in elderly patients. Symptoms such as vomiting, nausea, headache, and disturbances in consciousness are more common in elderly patients with postoperative hyponatremia.

Summary: This study evaluated the prevalence and incidence of vertebral fractures in patients with adrenal incidentalomas and mild autonomous cortisol secretion. The results showed that patients with adrenal incidentalomas and mild autonomous cortisol secretion are at higher risk of vertebral fractures.

Summary: This study examined the risk factors of recurrent fragility fractures in the elderly and found that being female and older age increase the risk of refracture. Older age at the first fracture also leads to a shorter time to the second fracture. The study highlights the importance of implementing prevention programs that should be continued for at least 3-4 years in patients with any type of first fragility fracture.

Summary: Chronic liver disease/cirrhosis, metastatic and solid tumors, use of antiarrhythmic and potassium-sparing diuretic drugs, antineoplastic drug use, and dialysis treatment are associated with mortality risk in elderly patients with severe hyponatremia.

Summary: This study aimed to identify risk factors for hip fractures in elderly Korean patients, especially in patients with osteoporosis. The retrospective analysis of 168 patients showed that lower body weight, BMI, and BMD Z-scores were associated with a higher incidence of intertrochanteric fractures compared to femoral neck fractures. This suggests that there is a correlation between low body weight, BMI, and BMD Z-scores and an increased risk of intertrochanteric fractures in elderly Korean patients.

Summary: A risk assessment tool for mild cognitive impairment (MCI) was developed and validated in this study, focusing on modifiable factors and risk stratification. Nine modifiable risk factors were selected and the tool's performance was verified using cross-sectional and longitudinal datasets from a Chinese elderly cohort. The tool has significant public health implications for the primary prevention of MCI in elderly individuals in China.

Summary: This article presents a case of a 79-year-old woman who developed syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone (SIADH) with severe hyponatremia during linezolid treatment. It is the fourth reported case of linezolid-induced SIADH, emphasizing the importance of monitoring serum sodium levels regularly.

Summary: This article presents a case of SIADH developed after linezolid treatment, which was confirmed by the gradual increase of serum sodium after cessation of the drug. Linezolid-induced SIADH is rare, but clinicians should be aware of this potential side effect. Periodic monitoring of serum sodium levels is necessary for early detection and management.
