TL;DR: The analyses presented in this study can be used as a guideline for the prediction of negative outcomes according to the frailty concept used, as well as to estimate the time frame within which these events can be expected to occur.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: A systematic overview of frailty instruments linked to the International Classification of Functioning, Disability, and Health (ICF), a standardized and hierarchically coded language developed by World Health Organization regarding health conditions and their positive and negative consequences, highlights the heterogeneity in frailty operationalization.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis on the relationship between fatigue and negative health outcomes in community-dwelling older adults and found that fatigue is related to an increased risk for the occurrence of all studied health outcomes (range OR 1299-3094; HR/RR 1038-1471); for example, mortality OR 214 [174-263]; HR/HR 144 [128-162]), the development disabilities in basic activities of daily living (OR 322 [205-538]), or the occurrence with physical decline (OR 142 [129
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Fatigue is prominently represented in frailty scales, covering a great diversity in fatigue constructs and underlying pathophysiological mechanisms by which fatigue relates to frailty.
Journal ArticleDOI
