CONTEXT: In older adults with multiple conditions, medications may not impart the same benefits seen in patients who are younger, or without multi-morbidity. Furthermore, medications given for one condition may adversely affect other outcomes. Beta-blocker (β-Blocker) use with coexisting cardiovascular disease (CVD) and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is such...

IMPORTANCE:
Muscle pain, fatigue, and weakness are common adverse effects of statin medications and may decrease physical activity in older men.
OBJECTIVE:
Determine whether statin use is associated with physical activity, longitudinally and cross-sectionally.
DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS:
Men participating in the Osteoporotic Fractures in Men Study, a multicenter prospective...
As concern grows about the long-term effects of increasing atmospheric CO₂
concentrations, it becomes increasingly important to understand the cycling of carbon
on Earth, particularly in the dynamic marine reservoir. Gas exchange and relatively
rapid ocean mixing times mean that the oceans play a significant role in determining
the atmospheric...
The timber and Christmas tree industries are important components of the Pacific Northwest economy. A goal of both industries is to produce high quality trees with high growth rates. Accomplishing this requires increased genetic quality of the trees grown. Tissue culture provides the most promise for propagating these superior genotypes....
