Background: To evaluate the epidemiological data on the prevalence of frailty and prefrailty in individuals aged 60 years or older on MHD patients.
Methods: PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, CNKI, WanFang, CBM, and VIP were searched from inception to February 2023 using combinations of subject words and free words. The methodological quality of all the selected studies was assessed using the Joanna Briggs Institute Critical Appraisal of Epidemiological Studies Checklist and Newcastle‒Ottawa Cohort Quality Assessment Scale. Random effects meta-analysis was used to pool estimates from different studies. Subgroup analysis and meta-regression were performed to explore potential sources of heterogeneity.
Results: Of the 4,190 documents retrieved, 16 observational studies involving 2,446 participants from 8 countries were included in this systematic review. Among older adults receiving MHD, the overall prevalence of frailty and prefrailty was 41% (95% CI = 34-49%) and 37% (95% CI = 26-48%), respectively, with considerable heterogeneity. The pooled prevalence of frailty was greater among individuals aged > 70 years (45%) than among those aged ≤ 70 years (37%). However, subgroup analyses indicated that the confidence intervals for the age group overlap substantially.
Conclusion: Our research showed that the prevalence of frailty and prefrailty in older patients with MHD are high.
Trial Registration: The PROSPERO registration number for this study was CRD42023442569.

: Swallowing dysfunction is a prevalent but often overlooked problem in long-term care facilities. This study investigated the relationships between nutritional deficits, frailty, oral health, and swallowing dysfunction. Additionally, we explored the associations between oral muscle weakness, frailty markers, and swallowing dysfunction.

Acute diverticulitis (AD), an inflammatory complication of diverticulosis, affects around 4% of individuals with diverticulosis, with increased incidence in older populations. This study aims to assess the impact of sarcopenia, the age-related loss of muscle mass, on the clinical decision-making and outcomes of patients with AD. A retrospective study was conducted on 237 patients admitted to the Emergency Department (ED) between January 2014 and February 2022.

Background/objectives: Oral frailty, first identified in Japan in 2014, refers to a state between healthy oral function and severe decline, marked by minor issues, such as tooth loss and chewing difficulties. The oral frailty five-item checklist (OF-5) enables non-dental professionals to evaluate oral frailty using five key indicators: remaining teeth count, chewing difficulties, swallowing difficulties, dry mouth, and articulatory oral skills. Limited studies exist.

One of the most pressing challenges facing society today is the rising prevalence of physical and cognitive frailty. This geriatric condition makes older adults more vulnerable to disability, illness, and a heightened risk of mortality. In this scenario, Parkinson's disease (PD) and geriatric frailty, which share several common characteristics, are becoming increasingly prevalent worldwide, underscoring the urgent need for innovative strategies.

To determine the prevalence of frailty and examine its association with gastrointestinal-related quality of life (QOL) among older outpatients in a geriatric hospital. This cross-sectional study involved 1042 outpatients (age: ≥65 years) diagnosed using the revised Japanese version of the cardiovascular health study criteria. Data collection was performed by a multidisciplinary team.
