“…The ndings of this study added new evidence that, the objective indicators of childhood health and healthcare, rather than the subjective indicators, were signi cantly associated with the change rate of frailty in later life. Furthermore, consistent with prior studies (Jung et al 2022;Landré et al 2020;Raymond et al 2020), we found respondents who were older, female, overweight, and obese would have a higher baseline level as well as a steeper trajectory of frailty. Besides, compared with those married counterparts, those who were not married at baseline (e.g., divorced and widowed) were more likely to be frail.…”

“…Similar to previous studies (Chamberlain et al 2016;Jung et al 2022;Verghese et al 2021), we have identi ed an increasing pattern of frailty trajectory. When considering childhood conditions, signi cant impacts of all these three childhood antecedents were found on frailty at baseline (Li et al 2019(Li et al , 2020Mian et al 2021), and childhood SES also had a strong relationship with the trajectory of frailty (Linden et al 2020).…”

“…A range of factors might influence frailty trajectory. Studies have found that elements like weight, lifestyle, socioeconomic status (SES), and social resources can significantly affect the incidence and progression of frailty in later life (Jung et al 2022 ; Liu et al 2022 ; Raymond et al 2020 ). However, most of these influencing factors only cover adulthood, whereas life course theory posits that an individual’s life features multiple stages and life events, each of which affects the next stages and eventually influences status during later life (Elder et al 2003 ).…”

This study examined the associations between childhood experience and frailty trajectory among middleaged and older Chinese adults. Data were derived from The China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study. We used data from all of the 4 waves (i.e., 2011, 2013, 2015, 2018) and the life history survey occurred in 2014. A total of 10963 respondents were included. Latent growth curve models were conducted to examine the proposed model. The results showed that adverse childhood experience, childhood socio-economic status, and the objective indicators of childhood health and healthcare were associated with both the baseline level and change rate of frailty trajectory. The perceived childhood health and healthcare conditions were associated with baseline frailty only. Our ndings highlighted the crucial role of childhood antecedents in the progression of frailty at later life. We further provided strong evidence that childhood was an essential life stage for human development. Future social policies and interventions should use childhood experience as a screening tool, as well as promote child protection, health education, and life course interventions.

“…by Chon, Lee, Kim, & Lee,(2018)which revealed that participating in social activities had a signi cantly lower frailty risk than participants who never engaging in those activities. Contrariwise, studies done in Canada byVerschoor et al, (2021), in Korea byJung, Lyu, & Kim, (2021), in China by Li, Xue, Odden, Chen, & Wu, (2020), found that the majority of those who were current-smoked, were frailer but without statistically signi cant association. In inverse, study done in China byJing et al, (2020), found that non-tea drinkers were more likely to frailty than tea drinkers, and in Spain by Machado-Fragua, Struijk, Graciani, Guallar-Castillon, Rodríguez-Artalejo, F., & Lopez-Garcia, E. (2019), and byBrunelli et al, (2021), showed no association between coffee/tea consumption/day and frailty.The present results found negative correlation between body weight, & body mass index (BMI), HGS, mid-arm circumference (MAC), and calf circumference (CC) of the studied older adults with frailty.…”

Background: Frailty is an important and a highly prevalent health problem in older adults that has a negative impact on health related outcomes. The importance of studying frailty comes from the fact that its merely associated with aging but not an inevitable process. Aim: To assess prevalence of frailty and its associated factors among community-dwelling older adults. Method: A community based cross sectional study was used withcluster sampling technique targeted 300 older adults in six urban and rural regions affiliated to Dakahlia governorate. Data was collected using, Mini-mental State Examination, demographic and health-related data structured interview questionnaire, Katz and Akpom scale, Lawton and Brody scale, the Mini Nutritional Asses sment questionnaire and Frailty was measured using survey of health, and aging, and retirement in Europe of the frailty indicator. Results: Prevalence of frailty was 64.7% among the studied older adults, and only 5.3% were non frail. Age, current work, comorbidity, polypharmavy, IADL, and malnutrition were significant independent predictors for frailty (β 0.136, -0.148, 0.117, 0.118, -0.209, and 0.401 respectively), p < 0.05 for all, and responsible for 72.4% of frailty (R2 = .724). Conclusion: It can be concluded that frailty was highly prevalent in community-dwellers in Egypt urban and rural regions. Risk factors of frailty include female gender, widohood, illiteracy, living arrangements, previous hospitalization, drug compliance, periodic checkup, engagement into social practices, and smoking. Moreover Older adults' age, work status, income, comorbidities, polypharmacy, functional status, and nutritional status were found as the main factors associated with frailty. Recommendations: Assessment of associated risk factors of frailty in older adults should be done through community-based healthcare programs for early diagnosis and management.
