Long-term grip strength trajectories

Long-term grip strength trajectories are associated with successful aging in humans (OR 0.390, 95% CI 0.161-0.944, P = 0.035).

“compared with the high-baseline slight decline trajectory, middle-aged and older adults with the moderate-baseline gentle decline trajectory had a 61% significantly lower probability of achieving successful aging (OR = 0.390, 95% CI: 0.161-0.944, P = 0.035)”
