Frailty

Long-term insulin resistance is associated with frailty, frailty progression, and cardiovascular disease.

Insulin resistance and diabetes are associated with an increased risk of frailty, and frailty is associated with cardiovascular disease and premature mortality. We aim to investigate the impact of long-term insulin resistance trajectories on future frailty and cardiovascular risk among...

Reduced temporal muscle thickness predicts shorter survival in patients undergoing chronic subdural haematoma drainage.

Chronic subdural haematoma (CSDH) drainage is a common neurosurgical procedure. CSDHs cause excess mortality, which is exacerbated by frailty. Sarcopenia contributes to frailty - its key component, low muscle mass, can be assessed using cross-sectional imaging. We aimed to examine...

Physical frailty, genetic predisposition, and incident arrhythmias.

Cross-sectional evidence suggests a possible link between frailty and atrial fibrillation (AF). It remains unclear whether frailty and incident arrhythmias are longitudinally associated. This study aimed to determine whether the frailty phenotype is longitudinally associated with incident arrhythmias, especially AF....

Association of computed tomography-derived muscle mass and quality with delayed acquisition independent walking after cardiovascular surgery.

In the context of cardiovascular surgery, the foremost concern lies in delayed functional recovery, as typified by the acquisition of independent walking after surgery, among older patients with decline in skeletal muscle mass and quality. Computed tomography (CT), which is...

Association of food group with the changes in sarcopenia parameters over 1 year in older outpatients in a frailty clinic.

This study investigated the relationship between food group and the changes in sarcopenia parameters in 1 year among older outpatients. A prospective cohort study conducted between July 2017 and April 2021 included patients aged ≥ 65 years attending a frailty clinic. Food group consumption...

Inflamm-ageing: How cytokines and nutrition shape the trajectory of ageing.

Population ageing is increasing in prevalence in most developed countries. Ageing is the decline of functional properties at the cellular, tissue, and organ level. Biochemical changes that occur in all organisms that experience biological ageing are referred to as the...

Effect of resistance training on physical function during chemotherapy in colon cancer.

The decline of physical function during chemotherapy predicts poor quality of life and premature death. It is unknown if resistance training prevents physical function decline during chemotherapy in colon cancer survivors. This multicenter trial randomly assigned 181 colon cancer survivors...

Efficacy of empagliflozin in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction according to frailty status in EMPEROR-Preserved.

Frailty is a severe, common co-morbidity associated with heart failure (HF) with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). The impact of frailty on HFpEF outcomes may affect treatment choices in HFpEF. The impact of frailty on HFpEF patients and any impact on...

The burden of frailty in heart failure: Prevalence, impacts on clinical outcomes and the role of heart failure medications.

Frailty often coexists with heart failure (HF), which significantly aggravates the clinical outcomes of older adults. However, studies investigating the interplay between frailty and HF in older adults are scarce. We aimed to assess the prevalence of frailty using the...
