Especially in frail, elderly patients, strict glycemic control should be emphasized less than avoiding malnutrition and hypoglycemia and achieving the best quality of life possible.

Sometimes pain in the neck or back is caused by a problem in the shoulder, hip, or extremities. Common mimics are rotator cuff tear, bursitis in the hip, peripheral nerve compression, and arthritis in the shoulder and hip.

Jones, J. Stephen
- You have accessFour no more: The ‘PSA cutoff era’ is overJ. Stephen Jones, MD and Eric Klein, MDCleveland Clinic Journal of Medicine January 2008, 75 (1) 30-32;
The prostate-specific antigen (PSA) value is only one of the risk factors for prostate cancer, and no PSA value rules cancer in or out. Therefore, our laboratory reports will no longer list 4.0 μg/L as the upper limit of normal. Instead, we will estimate the patient’s actual risk.
