Description
Researchers report a risk model for cognitive frailty in older adults in this 2023 paper. Cognitive frailty pairs physical frailty with mild cognitive impairment. It is a growing concern as populations age, and early screening could help.
They built the model from a national aging study, using 2011 data to train and 2015 data to test it. Adults aged sixty-five and over without probable dementia were included. Thirteen factors made the final model, from age and schooling to balance and daily living skills. Scores separated high and low risk groups well in all test sets. Fit checks also looked good, which supports use in community screening.
