The frailty index is a predictor of cause-specific mortality independent of familial effects from midlife onwards

2018-12-07

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Frailty index (FI) is a well-established predictor of all-cause mortality, but less is known for cause-specific mortality and whether familial effects influence the associations. Furthermore, the population mortality impact of frailty remains understudied. <h4>Objectives</h4> To estimate the predictive value of frailty for all-cause and cause-specific mortality, and to test whether the associ...
