Individuals With Multijoint Osteoarthritis Demonstrate Larger Longitudinal Declines in Frailty: Data From the Canadian Longitudinal Study on Aging

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective The aim of this study was to test the hypothesis that multijoint osteoarthritis would modify the relation between time and frailty progression, in which more affected joints would lead to larger declines over six years compared to those without osteoarthritis using data from the Canadian Longitudinal Study on Aging.

Subjective social status and trajectories of frailty: findings from the English Longitudinal Study of Ageing

open access: yesBMJ Public Health
Objectives Subjective social status is a known antecedent for many health outcomes, but little research has examined the association between subjective status and frailty among older people.

Extending Service Beyond Active Duty: Generalizability of Rheumatoid Arthritis Research Conducted Among U.S. Veterans

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Biomedical research involving United States Veterans continues to advance healthcare beyond the Veterans Health Administration. This is particularly true in rheumatoid arthritis (RA), where Veteran‐centric research has uncovered novel insights into pathogenesis, risk factors, and disease manifestations, informing clinical care and research across both ...

Defining Biomarkers of Frailty in the Kidney: Implications for Endobiotic and Xenobiotic Metabolism in Mice

open access: yes, 2023
Frailty describes individuals with increased susceptibility to adverse health outcomes. The frailty index (FI) quantifies frailty by measuring deficit accumulation. This project aimed to characterize the molecular signature of frailty in the mouse kidney

Rheumatoid arthritis, frailty, and outcomes of surgical hospitalizations: A national population‐based analysis

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
OBJECTIVE Hospitalization, particularly for surgery, represents a period of heightened stress. We evaluated how frailty attenuates the association of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) with negative health outcomes after elective non‐cardiac surgery. METHODS We conducted a cross‐sectional study using the National Inpatient Sample (2018 to 2020), including ...

Parametric frailty and shared frailty survival models [PDF]

open access: yes
Frailty models are the survival data analog to regression models, which account for heterogeneity and random effects. A frailty is a latent multiplicative effect on the hazard function and is assumed to have unit mean and variance theta, which is ...

Advancing Human Skin Equivalents: The Crucial Role of Neurovascular Integration

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This review discusses the importance of integrating vascular and peripheral nerve systems into human skin equivalents (HSEs) to better recapitulate native skin physiology. Recent advances in vascularized, innervated, and neurovascularized HSEs are highlighted, together with emerging bioengineering strategies, current challenges, and future ...

Longitudinal bidirectional associations among sarcopenia risk, social isolation, and frailty in Chinese older adults using an item response theory-derived frailty index

open access: yesFrontiers in Public Health
IntroductionFrailty is a common geriatric syndrome characterized by multisystem decline and increased vulnerability in older adults, and may interact with sarcopenia risk and social isolation through shared behavioral and functional pathways.

Frailty in survival analysis models (parametric frailty, parametric shared frailty, and frailty in Cox models [PDF]

open access: yes
Frailty models are used to model survival times in the presence of overdispersion or group-specific random effects. The latter are distinguished from the former by the term "shared" frailty models.
