... of frailty and frailty assessment tools are invaluable to geriatric research. This review briefly describes the concept of frailty and discusses the newly developed animal models of frailty, specifically the frailty phenotype- and frailty index-based models. Mouse models are the most common models...

... (iTMT) platform was developed using wearable technology to automate quantification of frailty phenotypes without the need of a frailty walking test. Methods: Sixty-one older adults (age = 72.8 ± 9.9 years, body mass index [BMI] = 27.4 ± 4.9 kg/m 2 ) were recruited. According to the Fried Frailty...

...) using two wearable sensors, which allows capturing key frailty phenotypes (weakness, slowness, and exhaustion), by testing 20-s rapid elbow flexion-extension test. Objective: In this study, we proposed an enhanced automated algorithm to identify frailty using a single wrist-worn sensor. Methods...

...Yew Yoong Ding Background: For investigating the relationship of frailty with physical, psychological, and social conditions on pathways, the frailty definition should ideally exclude these conditions. Based on the frailty phenotype, 2 candidate physical frailty specifications or instruments with 3...
