“…RESULTS: In the cross-sectional study, the multivariate-adjusted ORs (95% CIs) for depressive symptoms among pre-frail and frail adults, as defined by the frailty index and phenotype, were 3.05 (2.68–3.49), and 9.78 (8.02–12.03), respectively. …”

“…Based on the clinical frailty risk scale (CFS), 31.6% were vulnerable, 51.3% were mildly frail and 12.5% were moderately frail. Based on SARC-F screening, 45.3% were identified to be sarcopenic whilst 56.9% had a high concern about falling using the Falls-Efficacy Scale-International. …”

“…Twenty eight were vulnerable-frail (defined as CFS ≥ 4). Vulnerable-frail patients showed greater 6-month mortality and unfavorable outcome compared to non-frail [87% vs. 30% OR and 95% CI: 15.7 (3.9–55.2), p < 0.0001 and 92% vs. 51% OR and 95% CI: 9.9 (2.1–46.3), p = 0.002]. …”

“…In the seminal work by Fried and colleagues, persons who were characterized by 1-2 of the Fried index criteria were termed “pre-frail” and considered at risk for subsequently becoming frail, potentially providing insight regarding intervention targets that might slow or prevent individuals’ transition from pre-frail to frail status. …”

“…RESULTS: Three hundred three (19%) men were frail at baseline (aged 71–92). Having fewer than 21 teeth, complete tooth loss, fair to poor self‐rated oral health, difficulty eating, dry mouth, and more oral health problems were associated with greater likelihood of being frail. …”

“…A proportion of 38.5% was identified as frail. A multiple logistic regression model revealed that elderly people with cognitive dysfunction were more likely to be frail (OR = 1.65; 95% CI: 0.55–4.98, p = 0.469) compared to those with normal cognition, but this association was not significant. …”

“…Reluctance in administering conventional intensive chemotherapy relies on life-threatening complications induced by treatment in an often frail patient population. Nonetheless, while there is general consensus on the management of frail patients with supportive care only, a wide area of uncertainty remains for a considerable proportion of patients in whom treatment beyond support is feasible, with the aim of altering the natural history of the disease. …”
