Functional limitation

  1. SOMMA frailty score raises the risk of functional limitation in humans (9-31 times more likely).

    “those in the highest group were 9-31 times more likely to have functional limitation”

Difficulty with activities of daily living or mobility

upin humans1

1 study

  1. SOMMA frailty score raises the risk of difficulty with activities of daily living or mobility in humans (30%-50% higher odds per point).

    “Each point was associated with a 30%-50% higher odds of having reported difficulty with activities of daily living or mobility.”

Age

1 study

  1. SOMMA frailty score is associated with age in humans (r = 0.33, p < .0001).

    “The SOMMA frailty score distribution was broad and strongly associated with age (r = 0.33, p < .0001).”
