An In-Person and Online Intervention for Parkinson Disease (UPGRADE-PD): Protocol for a Patient-Centered and Culturally Tailored 3-Arm Crossover Trial

An In-Person and Online Intervention for Parkinson Disease (UPGRADE-PD): Protocol for a Patient-Centered and Culturally Tailored 3-Arm Crossover Trial

Furthermore, all the aforementioned PD symptoms seem to relate to the reduction of physical activity, muscle mass, and strength levels, as well as movement performance of patients with PD, thus increasing sarcopenia and frailty [2-4]. It is well accepted that systematic physical exercise enhances neuroplasticity [5]; prevents or delays frailty [4,6]; and improves symptoms such as balance, gait, and Qo L in people with PD [7].

Association Between Sleep Duration and Cognitive Frailty in Older Chinese Adults: Prospective Cohort Study

Association Between Sleep Duration and Cognitive Frailty in Older Chinese Adults: Prospective Cohort Study

Physical frailty and cognitive impairment are prevalent among older adults and have individually been associated with adverse health outcomes [1,2]. They often coincide with aging and can be bidirectionally linked to each other [3,4], prompting the introduction of the concept of cognitive frailty—the coexistence of both physical frailty and cognitive impairment [5].

Assessing Social Interaction and Loneliness and Their Association With Frailty Among Older Adults With Subjective Cognitive Decline or Mild Cognitive Impairment: Ecological Momentary Assessment Approach

Assessing Social Interaction and Loneliness and Their Association With Frailty Among Older Adults With Subjective Cognitive Decline or Mild Cognitive Impairment: Ecological Momentary Assessment Approach

The co-occurrence of frailty and early-stage cognitive decline has been well documented, with studies showing an increased likelihood of frailty in older adults with SCD or MCI. Two systematic reviews and meta-analyses have offered solid evidence of this relationship [15,16].

Unveiling the Frailty Spatial Patterns Among Chilean Older Persons by Exploring Sociodemographic and Urbanistic Influences Based on Geographic Information Systems: Cross-Sectional Study

Unveiling the Frailty Spatial Patterns Among Chilean Older Persons by Exploring Sociodemographic and Urbanistic Influences Based on Geographic Information Systems: Cross-Sectional Study

Recent evidence underscores the impact of neighborhood characteristics on frailty among older people. Those residing in neighborhoods with abundant green spaces exhibit a lower incidence of frailty, whereas individuals perceiving precarious conditions in their surroundings, houses, and environment face a higher risk of frailty [19-21].

Machine Learning Models for Frailty Classification of Older Adults in Northern Thailand: Model Development and Validation Study

Machine Learning Models for Frailty Classification of Older Adults in Northern Thailand: Model Development and Validation Study

The prevalence of frailty is high among older adults aged ≥60 years [5]. Global frailty prevalence ranges from approximately 10% to 12% [6-11]. The percentage varies by age, gender, and frailty classification tool. In Thailand, frailty prevalence was 22.1%, which is twice the global frailty prevalence, according to the Thai National Health Examination Survey cohort in 2018. Specifically, Thailand’s northern region frailty prevalence was found to be 15% [12,13].

FRAILSURVEY—an mHealth App for Self-Assessment of Frailty Based on the Portuguese Version of the Groningen Frailty Indicator: Validation and Reliability Study

FRAILSURVEY—an mHealth App for Self-Assessment of Frailty Based on the Portuguese Version of the Groningen Frailty Indicator: Validation and Reliability Study

Portugal ranks among the European countries with the highest prevalence of frailty (20.7%) [5,6]. Frailty is characterized by a reduced physiologic reserve and increased susceptibility to stressors, leading to an elevated risk of adverse health outcomes such as falls, hospitalization, disability, and death.
