Deficit-accumulation frailty index
mixedin humans1
Plasma metabolite clusters are associated with deficit-accumulation frailty index in humans (6 of 10 metabolite clusters significantly associated with FI).
“Hierarchical clustering identified 10 clusters of metabolites, of which 6 were significantly associated with FI (p<0.05) at baseline”
