Structural brain signatures of frailty, defined as accumulation of self-reported health deficits in older adults

Structural brain signatures of frailty, defined as accumulation of self-reported health deficits in older adults

BackgroundFrailty in older adults has been associated with reduced brain health. However, structural brain signatures of frailty remain understudied. Our aims were: (1) Explore associations between a frailty index (FI) and brain structure on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). (2) Identify the most im...
