Meta-analysis: Excess Mortality After Hip Fracture Among Older Women and Men

Physical Resilience in Older Adults: Systematic Review and Development of an Emerging Construct

TL;DR: A working definition of physical resilience at the whole person level is proposed: a characteristic which determines one's ability to resist or recover from functional decline following health stressor(s), which encompasses the related construct of physiologic reserve.
Journal ArticleDOI
