Depression links to hospital stays mainly in frail older adults

In 6,104 older adults, each 5-point rise in depressive symptoms carried an odds ratio for hospital admission of 1.25 in frail people versus 1.00 in robust peers.In 6,104 older adults, each 5-point rise in depressive symptoms carried an odds ratio for hospital admission of 1.25 in frail people versus 1.00 in robust peers.

Electronic frailty index predicts CAR-T outcomes in older adults

Very frail older patients had worse overall survival (HR=1.64) and event-free survival (HR=2.02) after CAR-T therapy than robust or prefrail peers.Very frail older patients had worse overall survival (HR=1.64) and event-free survival (HR=2.02) after CAR-T therapy than robust or prefrail peers.

Age and frailty shift optimal blood pressure for cognitive aging

Global cognitive aging rates showed an inverted U-shaped link with systolic pressure, peaking at 120.1 mmHg overall and 130.8 mmHg in prefrail older adults.Global cognitive aging rates showed an inverted U-shaped link with systolic pressure, peaking at 120.1 mmHg overall and 130.8 mmHg in prefrail older adults.
