Changes in frailty status in a community-dwelling cohort of older adults: the VERISAÚDE study
(Elsevier, 2018-11-15)[Abstract] Objectives: Greater understanding of changes in the degree of frailty is important for clarifying the natural history of frailty and may help clinical decision-making regarding preventive interventions. The ... -
Clinical and Neuropsychological Correlates of Prefrailty Syndrome
(Frontiers Media S.A., 2020-11-09)[Abstract] Physical frailty is closely associated with cognitive impairment. We aim to investigate the neuropsychological profiles of prefrail and non-frail dementia-free community-dwelling older adults using a comprehensive ... -
Cognitive frailty: a conceptual systematic review and an operational proposal for future research
(Elsevier, 2018-12-07)[Abstract] Objective. To analyze the definition of “cognitive frailty” and to study the conceptual and operational definitions used and their implications for empirical research. The relationships between this concept and ... -
Determinants of Quality of Life in Pre-Frail Older Adults According to Phenotypic Criteria: the VERISAUDE Study
(Springer para The International Society for Quality-of-Life Studies (ISQOLS), 2017-02-04)[Abstract] Frailty is a dynamic clinical syndrome considered as part of an age-associated continuum of severity, including pre-frailty as an intermediate frailty status with potential reversibility to robustness. The main ... -
Dual and triple tasks performance in institutionalized prefrail and frail older adults
(Willey, 2020-07-13)[Abstract] Objective: The aim of this pilot study was to investigate differences on dual- and triple-task performance in institutionalized prefrail and frail older adults. Performance on these tasks is relevant since ... -
