Chronic low back pain and decreased physical activity are associated with social frailty incidence among community‐dwelling older adults
Our results suggest that a combination of chronic low back pain and low step counts is associated with the incidence of social frailty. Further research is required to establish intervention methods for pain and decreased physical activity to prevent social frailty. Geriatr Gerontol Int 2025; 25: 25-30.
