Reconsidering frailty from a human and social sciences standpoint: towards an interdisciplinary approach to vulnerability
Philippe Sabot, Carla Di Martino, Christine Moroni, Anna Aluffi Pentini, Barbara Pabjan, Maria Manuela Pereira Machado, Agata Katkonienė, Paweł Czajkowski, Raminta Bardauskienė, Jean-Baptiste Beuscart, Coverage Collaborative Group

Age and Ageing, Volume 52, Issue 5, May 2023, afad064
Although frailty is an important, well-characterized concept in the provision of medical care to older adults, it has not been linked to the concept of vulnerability developed in the humanities and social sciences.

With an increase in the ageing population, there is a rise in the burden of cardiovascular disease. Age and Ageing have compiled collections of their key cardiovascular themed papers. The first Age and Ageing Cardiovascular Collection focussed on blood pressure, coronary heart disease and heart failure. In this second collection, publications since 2011 were selected with emphasis on atrial fibrillation, transient ischaemic attack (TIA) and stroke.

Care homes are increasingly important settings for intervention research to enhance evidence-informed care. For such research to demonstrate effectiveness, it is essential that measures are appropriate for the population, setting and practice contexts.
A systematic review and meta-analysis of the measurement properties of concerns-about-falling instruments in older people and people at increased risk of falls
Lisa McGarrigle, Yang Yang, Reena Lasrado, Matthew Gittins, Chris Todd
doi : 10.1093/ageing/afad055
Age and Ageing, Volume 52, Issue 5, May 2023, afad055
The 16-item Falls Efficacy Scale International (FES-I) is widely used to assess concerns-about-falling. Variants include 7-item Short FES-I, 30-item Iconographical Falls Efficacy Scale (Icon FES) and 10-item short Icon FES. No comprehensive systematic review and meta-analysis has been conducted to synthesise evidence regarding the measurement properties of these tools.

Age and Ageing, Volume 52, Issue 5, May 2023, afad074
Delirium is a common complication clinically and is associated with the poor outcomes, yet it is frequently unrecognised and readily disregarded. Although the 3-minute diagnostic interview for confusion assessment method-defined delirium (3D-CAM) has been used in a variety of care settings, a comprehensive evaluation of its accuracy in all available care settings has not been performed.
Does frailty status predict outcome in major trauma in older people? A systematic review and meta-analysis
Abdullah G Alqarni, John R F Gladman, Akanu A Obasi, Benjamin Ollivere
doi : 10.1093/ageing/afad073
Age and Ageing, Volume 52, Issue 5, May 2023, afad073
The incidence of major trauma in older people is increasing. Frailty is likely to be a factor that influences the outcomes of trauma. We conducted a systematic review aiming to investigate whether frailty affects major trauma outcomes in older people and whether it is more predictive than age.
Frailty transitions and prevalence in an ageing population: longitudinal analysis of primary care data from an open cohort of adults aged 50 and over in England, 2006–2017
Bronagh Walsh, Carole Fogg, Scott Harris, Paul Roderick, Simon de Lusignan, Tracey England, Andrew Clegg, Sally Brailsford, Simon D S Fraser
doi : 10.1093/ageing/afad058
Age and Ageing, Volume 52, Issue 5, May 2023, afad058
frailty is common in older adults and is associated with increased health and social care use. Longitudinal information is needed on population-level incidence, prevalence and frailty progression to plan services to meet future population needs.

No treatment options are currently available to counteract cognitive deficits and/or delay progression towards dementia in older people with mild cognitive impairment (MCI).
Association of kidney function and albuminuria with frailty worsening and death in very old adults
Nina Mielke, Alice Schneider, Muhammad Helmi Barghouth, Natalie Ebert, Markus van der Giet, Dörte Huscher, Martin K Kuhlmann, Elke Schaeffner
doi : 10.1093/ageing/afad063
Age and Ageing, Volume 52, Issue 5, May 2023, afad063
Studies analysing the association of albuminuria and prevalent frailty in community-dwelling very old adults are scarce and lack information on incident frailty. We investigated the association of kidney function decline and increase of albuminuria with frailty worsening or death in very old adults.
Long-term risks of cardiovascular death in a population-based cohort of 1,141,675 older patients with cancer

Quality of plant-based diet and the risk of dementia and depression among middle-aged and older population
Hanzhang Wu, Yeqing Gu, Ge Meng, Hongmei Wu, Shunming Zhang, Xuena Wang, Juanjuan Zhang, Tao Huang, Kaijun Niu

Age and Ageing, Volume 52, Issue 5, May 2023, afad070
several previous studies have shown the importance of the plant-based diets. However, not all plant-based foods are necessarily beneficial for dementia or depression. This study aimed to prospectively investigate the association between an overall plant-based diet and the incidence of dementia or depression.
Fall-risk-increasing drugs in older patients: the role of guidelines and GP-centred health care in Germany

fall-risk-increasing drugs (FRIDs) are a ubiquitous issue, especially for older patients. As part of a German guideline for pharmacotherapy, from 2019, a new quality indicator for this patient group was developed to measure the percentage of patients receiving FRIDs.
