This study aimed to develop and validate prediction models for incident reversible cognitive frailty (RCF) based on social-ecological predictors. Older adults aged ≥60 years from China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS) 2011-2013 surve...
BACKGROUND: This study aims to implement a validated prediction model and application medium for postoperative pneumonia (POP) in elderly patients with hip fractures in order to facilitate individualized intervention by clinicians.
BACKGROUND: Physical frailty is an important issue in aging societies. Three models of physical frailty assessment, the 5-Item fatigue, resistance, ambulation, illness and loss of weight (FRAIL); Cardiovascular Health Study (CHS); and Study of Osteop...
BACKGROUND: Accelerated biological ageing is a major underlying mechanism of frailty development. This study aimed to investigate if the biological age measured by a blood biochemistry-based ageing clock is associated with frailty in geriatric rehabi...
AIMS: Early identification and intervention of the frailty of the elderly will help lighten the burden of social medical care and improve the quality of life of the elderly. Therefore, we used machine learning (ML) algorithm to develop models to pred...
BACKGROUND: Frailty syndrome (FS) is one of the most common noncommunicable diseases, which is associated with lower physical and mental capacities in older adults. FS diagnosis is mostly focused on biological variables; however, it is likely that th...
