Activity’s links to muscle decline differed by frailty

An age-related muscle disorder developed in 3.3% of participants with low frailty and 17.9% with high frailty over six years.An age-related muscle disorder developed in 3.3% of participants with low frailty and 17.9% with high frailty over six years.
