The University of Rochester and the Rochester Community have joined efforts to establish an Older Americans Independence Center (OAIC). The Rochester Area Pepper Center (RAPC) will draw on the substantial resources in biomedical research including experimental therapeutics and biostatistics, health care innovations and research, and clinical care programs in geriatrics and long term care, to initiate intervention studies to improve the ability of older Americans to remain independent. The model of the Center is based on the observation that clinical dysfunction leading to dependence occurs along a continuum that the therapeutic strategies targeted at various loci from primary to tertiary prevention may reduce functional decline. The projects include two intervention studies (Acute Respiratory Tract Infection in the Elderly, W. Hall; Urinary Incontinence: Treatment Algorithm, T. Wells), and two interventions development studies (Muscle Hypertrophy and Protein Synthesis: Effect of Age (S. Welle) and Carbamazepine Therapy of Agitation in Dementia (P. Tariot). All projects address important diseases/dysfunctions which lead to functional dependence. The projects will utilize three cores (Geriatric Assessment (R. Panzer), Health Services Research (J. Zimmer), Biostatistics (M. Tanner) in order to integrate clinical data and determine the success of their planned program. The RAPC has developed a major Research Development Core to ensure that recruitment and training of future clinical scholars are successful. The Rochester community is an ideal environment for the initiation of information dissemination projects, and demonstration projects. In summary, the RAPC will become the leading organizational structure in coalescing a number of programs in aging, programs which will bring great strength to the Center, and crystallizing a multidisciplinary mission of geriatric programs in Rochester.

罗切斯特大学和罗切斯特社区共同努力 建立美国老年人独立中心（OAIC）。 罗切斯特酒店 地区胡椒中心 (RAPC) 将利用以下地区的大量资源： 生物医学研究，包括实验疗法和生物统计学， 医疗保健创新和研究以及临床护理项目 老年病学和长期护理，启动干预研究以改善 美国老年人保持独立的能力。 的模型 中心基于以下观察：临床功能障碍导致 依赖性沿着治疗策略的连续体发生 针对从初级到三级预防的各个位点可能会减少 功能衰退。 这些项目包括两项干预研究（急性 老年人呼吸道感染，W. Hall；尿失禁： 治疗算法，T. Wells）和两项干预措施开发研究 （肌肉肥大和蛋白质合成：年龄的影响（S. Welle）和 卡马西平治疗痴呆症躁动（P. Tariot）。 所有项目 解决导致功能障碍的重要疾病/功能障碍 依赖性。 这些项目将利用三个核心（老年评估 (R. Panzer)、卫生服务研究 (J. Zimmer)、生物统计学 (M. Tanner）以整合临床数据并确定治疗的成功 他们计划的计划。 RAPC 制定了一项重大研究开发 确保招募和培养未来临床学者的核心 是成功的。 罗切斯特社区是一个理想的环境 启动信息传播项目并进行示范 项目。 总之，RAPC 将成为全球领先的组织结构 合并多个老龄化项目，这些项目将带来巨大的好处 中心的力量，并具体化了多学科的使命 罗彻斯特的老年病学项目。
