Relationship between depression and frailty in older adults: A systematic review and meta-analysis. (2017, background): “Both depression and frailty are associated with a range of deleterious outcomes in older age such as lower quality of life (QOL), increased use of healthcare services, increased morbidity and mortality (Clegg et al., 2013; Fugate Woods et al., 2005; Hare et al., 2014; Rodda et al., 2011).”

Frailty index as a predictor of mortality: a systematic review and meta-analysis (2018, background): “On the other hand, this definition has been criticised for being quite narrow in focus, and for not including potentially important components of frailty such as cognitive impairment.[1, 12, 13] By contrast, the concept of the FI is that frailty is a state caused by the accumulation of health defici”
