The Effectiveness of Exercise Interventions for the Management of Frailty: A Systematic Review (2011, background): “Mounting evidence suggests that exercise interventions can be used to restore and/or maintain functional independence in older adults [9] and may potentially prevent, delay, or reverse the frailty process [10].”

A comparison of two approaches to measuring frailty in elderly people. (2007, background): “Still, clinical use of the frailty index remains to be fully demonstrated, which is why, even given some evidence for cross-validation of the clinical phenotype (14,28) we note that not every attempt at cross-validation has had the same success (33) and that questions about the final formulation of ”

Effects of physical exercise interventions in frail older adults: a systematic review of randomized controlled trials (2015, background): “This definition suggests that specific interventions and health strategies could be used to prevent, postpone or even reverse the frailty phenomenon [10].”
The I.A.N.A. task force on frailty assessment of older people in clinical practice (2008, neutral): “(6) But even after 30 years of research, many papers propose new definitions, further physiopathological relationships and different assessment tools.”
